I am a human calculator

I know this guy in Hallam who drives all these exy Mercedes

I'm surprised so many people I know get suckered into cheap car finance.

And I ask them, if car company is making a loss at by financing at below the RBA interest rate, where do you think they will make their money back from?

Residual value usually

driving through toorak & hawksburn reguarly when I lived in Burnley... would often see a lot of P-platers that were clearly 18th or 21st presents. saw a chick on red-p's once with the plates 18BDAY or something as gay as that on a 125i convertible. blaring something similar to Vanessa Carltons 1000 Miles. couldnt have gotten any more steretypical.

Any of you blokes who roll guards had to deal with lips that have been very very poorly smacked with a hammer? Unsure how to go about fixing it without pushing the outside of the panel about unevenly :/

You don't mess with club reg as it is your club and your friends that suffer if you get caught.

I will need it for approx 40 days for childcare pickups and 50 days if whatever I want (less 4 for attending club events) so that leaves me with a day a weekend legit driving (roughly)

You should be right; I imagine you'll be driving places the police have never heard of before

Ahhhh hipster jokes, they never get old...until someone else has heard them

So on topic of the FIFOs earning shitloads and throwing away their money, I met a couple on the weekend in WA

One asked me what I earn and then said he wasn't going to tell me what he earned, because I wouldn't want to know. I laughed and then he told me what he earned anyway, which was nice of him to do that. He bragged about taking home 12k in one month and pissing away 11k of it...which leaves him about on par with a 15 year old casual shelf stacker. Also expressed his concern about being able to pay back the remaining 15k of finance in his work ute...how the f**k? Then told me I should get into the mines. Thanks for the inspiration champ.

Pat I hope you are saving...

The best process is to stop being a bitch and just roll them

What do they usually spend it on?

Drugs & hookers? As there doesn't appear to be much to do in Perth

Have also heard that things are stupidly expensive up in mining towns... a $100 trolley of groceries can cost $150-200 in some towns up in queensland, purely because people have money from the mines... Pity about the "local" residents who can no longer afford to live in their own town anymore...

    • I thought it could be an issue because the standard plate was flexing when stressed. Maybe the original gear set will hold a bit better without flex? Last time on the dyno it made around 670nm at the hubs. Now it have bigger turbo and better intake but have not been on a dyno yet. The car is being used from family trips to drag race events. So the shifts can be a little violent. It is grinding if I shift to fast so was thinking I should overhaul it soon.
    • From the factory on RB26s there's a fitting on the intake manifold collector/"plenum" that provides pre-throttle boost signal. That's how they did it back in the day, I figure it's fine to replicate it.
    • I would be surprised if that wasn't the issue. It's probably telling you, that even if you remove the plastic liner, you may have some other clearance issues that may occur too in some scenarios. IE, tyre to guard. It looks like someone has already rolled the lip, but you may still have issues in the future IE, turning and hitting a bump etc. The fact it changes how bad it makes the noise when you are going backward vs forward is highly indicative that it's the tyre rubbing. They do make a terrible sound, even if you're only pushing a project car that has a liner hanging down on a tyre!   Has the car been lowered? If it has been, what is the measurement from the centre of the wheel hub to the lip of the guard straight up?

    • Mark's a bit smarter than people give him credit... He'd convince the person that is to become dead, to drive him to the forest first. That way his car has no evidence in it, and he's free to dispose of their vehicle permanently how he sees fit too...
