My friend got issued a full EPA based on a noise complaint by police during a pull-over.

Don't they need a reason to issue a full EPA?

Pat thought you knew better than to ask a silly question like that, ofcourse they can do what they want man.

Gyme with no spotter can be a drain... Super struggle town last rep of one of my sets, luckily some good guy greg helped me xD.

All this talk of no money for cars... I know dat feels.

One day, evo. One day... ;___;

Yeah I almost necked myself the other day doing incline barbell bench lol, had to like half stand up to get the bar up and only managed to get it on the lower hooks hahaha must of looked like a retard ah well.

Can never push as hard without a spotter imo.. did decline bench today like 10kgs lighter cos I didn't wanna f**k up haha

Birds stop being sick!

Yeah I was basically there with the bar just above my chest with it not going anywhere... bahaha.

My last rep of incline today I did similar, only barely got it onto the lowest rung and had to like slide underneath lolol. I also helped the guy who helped me... by spotting his 100kg bench. One day...

Wtf full EPA for exhaust on an NA beemer. Is full EPA more $$ than noise etc? (Which was like $40 when I did it iirc). On the one hand, doesn't have to change much (just chuck on stock exhaust) to pass... but on the other, such a hassle just for that.

about 80$

lol wow, why didn't he just put it on his chest and slide it down his legs and off or something

Not to excuse the twit for tryIng to 1RM beyond his limits, with no one else around...but when that much weight falls on you, you can't just move/roll it off you. It crushes against your chest/ribcage and stays there, making it hard to breathe.The best thing you can do is tip the bar to one side (like he eventually did), so that the end of the bar hits the floor...then press the other side off of you (will be approx half the weight). Never ever try to re-rack it like he did, as it can fall on your neck and strangle you like it almost did - you didn't lift it the first time, what makes you think you can press it up when you're even more worn out!

A professional lifter died about a year ago, when 200kg fell on his chest and crushed his bones/organs. Granted, he was using suicide grip and his spotters weren't doing their job.

Car went in for repairs yesterday, called up the place today and find out i'm getting a new door :)

Hopefully it gets colour matched properly...

Asked for quotes to fix a few other little things as well :)

After some fb browsing, I found out that Trent from Chequered Tuning is driftcat's husband.

Interesting...

lol, have you never been down to Chequered or called them? It'll go straight to Cat :P

$28 daily parking In city ey....fml

I get pissed off paying 4$ parking at doncaster westfield..

I normally park in public area and move my car every 3 hours.. though today security finally caught on and told me to park in staff carpark.. thought i cant cos too low =/

so prob just cop an extra few $ and leave it in customer parking instead.

    • So, I put my boat on a boat. First of all, I'm going to come out and say it. Why is Tasmania not considered a holy goal, an apex that all road-legal modified cars go to, to experience? This place is an absolute wonderland of titanic proportions. If people are already getting club runs for once in a lifetime 30 person cruises to Tassy then I've never seemed to see it. It is like someone replaced the entire place with an idyllic wonderland for cars, and all of the people living there with paid actors who are kind, humble, and friendly. Dear god. After doing a lap of almost all of the place I've found that it's a great way to find out all of the little things that the car isn't doing quite right and a great way to figure it all out. All in all, I drove for 4 hours a day for a week and nothing broke. I didn't even need to open the engine bay. This is by all means a great success, but it has left me with a list of things to potentially address. I also now have a 3D printed wheel fitment tool which annoyingly hasn't got any threads in it to actually assemble it. I might be able to tape it together to check the sizing I actually want to use, but it'll likely involving pulling the shocks out to properly measure travel at least at the front, and probably raise the car while I'm at it, at least in the rear. I scraped on quite a few things and I'm not sure how else to go about it. I was taking anything with a bump at what felt like 89 degree angles. And address those 10 other tasks. And wash the car. God damn it is dirty. And somehow, the weather was perfect the entire time - And because I was on the top of Mt Wellington it turns out it was very much about to freeze up there. I did something I typically never do and took some photos up there in what must have been -10 and the foggy felt like suspended ice, rather than mere fog. If you own a car in Australia, you owe it to yourself to do it.
    • Damn that was hilarious, and a bit embarrassing for skylines in general 😂 vintage car life ey. That R33 really stomped. Pretty entertaining stuff
    • Hi, I have a r32 gtr transmission. Does any of you guys have an idea how much power it will hold with the billet center plate and stock gearset? At what power level and use did yours brake with or without billet plate? Thanks, Oystein Lovik
    • Saw this replica police car based on a Mitsubishi Starion XX parked next to a 'police box' (it's literally a box) in Hirohata, Himeji City in Hyogo prefecture the other day. It's owned by Morii-san who is a local Mitsubishi Starion enthusiast. According to a local radio station blog post, he always wanted to make a police car himself based on ones he saw in his favourite Manga comics.  As it's illegal to modify a car to look like a police car and drive on the road, Morii-san tried many times to get permission from Aboshi police station headquarters nearby. They refused initially by after they got tired of that they granted him permission. However, the car can only be displayed on private property and obviously can't be registered as long as the police livery is present. The car was completed at a cost of 1.5 million yen (US$ 10,000) in addition to the car cost. A location was chosen outside Hirohata Police box where the car can easily been seen from the street. Morii-san has two other Starion road cars, both widebody GSR-VRs.
