Sometimes, I'm just a lost case. Sometimes....

On a side note, just got a hair cut so I'm feeling sexy and free!

Are they bright enough for outdoor uses like camping etc?

Insurance equivalent of calling a girl a broad minded person because she wouldn't put out for you

if she was from any other Aus state sure, but in Vic where the girls crack the shits for under 5km/h is a bit harsh.

Are you suggesting we shouldn't choose to date people based on their driving history

Simon became a sparky since he has the unearthed one.

Indeed... I now have 6 of these, since I made the ebay seller send me another to replace a "broken" one... then I refused to pay return postage, so got to keep it (works fine)

When I was under the car the other night doing suspension work, had one of these sitting down on the floor shining up under the car... as they put out no heat its got all the brightness of a 500W halogen, but none of the "I'm going to set things on fire if you don't keep at eye on me" annoyance. No dicking around with little LED torches or light bars either.

So going to keep 2 of them portable (will just wire up an extension lead onto them) and mount the other 4 around the walls.

They're a bargain at about $25 ea... but yeah, they aren't particularly safe straight out of the factory :| And being 240V they may not be suitable for your needs if you want one to be used away from a power source (or powered by the car itself)

BTW

Michael did you watch the race last night?

yeah thats the deal breaker for me. portable so i can use it at work plus in tight spots.

those magnetic LED torch/bar things are super handy for cars, kinda like: http://www.ebay.com.au/itm/72-LED-Powered-Mechanics-Magnetic-Hanging-Trouble-Work-Light-Bar-Lamp-Useful-/231295295853?pt=AU_Sport_Camping_Hiking_Lamps_Torches&hash=item35da46216d

Just called them, no one under 25. no exceptions.

Hmm... do I stay with 3rd party or go comprehensive with JustRipsoffs?

[Down_Shift]

Leroy, you'd want a rechargeable one though. That linked one uses AA batteries.

At $25 each, that's actually not bad at all Simon.

[Leroy Peterson]

Leroy, you'd want a rechargeable one though. That linked one uses AA batteries.

you're right. the one i have is 12v rechargable battery. comes with powerpoint and car charger, cost me $48 or something.

[Leroy Peterson]

you have to get the keys cut first. THEN it will be able to open stuff.

[Odium]

Honestly it depends how hard you drive it...

If you're doing twisty cruises and hills runs... Full Comp right away...

If you're driving it twice a week to go to your mums place for tea, I'd stay on 3rd party fire THEFT until you can afford it.

Also, if you've got the money sitting in your account, you just don't Want to spend it... then go Full Comp.

Oh Noes, Moh got Moh'd...

Googling for Skyline GTST Blank Key doesn't actually come up with any images of the key that I've got with mine Black plastic with an S imprinted in it.

Mine:

Mohsen's new one:

Does my one have a separate part number, Mike?

[Miguelone]

Theres about 10 different Nissan keys available for all the skylines, they're mostly under $5 each. I've always planned on ordering one if each to find out which is which and which may be nla but never have LOL

[Odium]

^ Should do that...

They'd get snapped up pretty quick on driftsales or skylines australia when you're done.
