Neck and neck with a 993 turbo, very slowly gaining on him

That was awesome, prolly would have got him good if I used 3rd instead of 4th

Old Jewish guy, just kept looking straight ahead, he didn't wanna look at me hahaha

As a rule of thumb, it is approximately 45 minutes before you begin sinking beers with us

Hope so, but knowing my luck it'll be around when it starts or after being Shanghai is 3 hours behind atm

Tony can speak Vu though

The rest of us will get shafted :P

But yeah plus 1 for mixed reviews have heard good and bad but I'll prolly end up chancing it when I respray mine because 20 year old car

Vu himself says he sprays accordingly with your budget - if you want a $7000 job it will look $7000, if you want a $3000 job he will do that too but don't expect it to look like a Continental GT

Fkin uncle

Did lol

if i wanted a 3 tonne land barge i probably would get a nissan patrol or something.

however if i wanted a sub-2 tonne land yacht (and i did) i got the gloria currently sitting in my driveway :D looking dirty like its on its way to Naru detention centre. straight off the boat.

took my friends 10mins to work out where the button for the fuel cap is. lolz.

Looking good man, not to long till it's rego'd and mods start :P

That changes very quickly...

Still remember first time I rode a bike on the road, sitting alongside a car was tripping me out. Didn't feel right being so naked and open going as fast as a car. Of course it might have helped if I was wearing clothes.

But soon speeds will feel slower on the bike than they do in cars, and then when you get a big bike you can blur time with a twist of the hand.

Booking in a track day at PI in December / early Jan.

Doing Broadford on the 14th, CSS at PI on the 15th...Might try get another PI track day in before thailand, then try get a few more in in Jan when I get back, before going back to work in Feb

That's a lot of bike riding Monica

Including Thailand

Yeh riding next to traffic freaked me out abit today. I havnt really gotten the hang of being able to see everything behind me yet..

Try tucking elbows in and point the mirrors more inward too...it's odd because the more you point mirrors in, the more you will see of yourself in them, but it still gives you a better angle to view what is directly behind you - sort of quality over quantity. You don't really need mirrors anyway, just headcheck everything, it's the safest way IMO. Rubberneckin' baby.

That's a lot of track riding. I want to do CSS but they are pretty booked out for now. Gonna just wing it at a track day and prolly break some lap records if they're lucky #46

Best way is just go fast enough you don't need to look behind

I don't think I've touched the road bike since I got the dirt bike #FIFO #needmalloo

Tyres down to the wires :( gonna need some new ones soon pretty sketchy in the wet today, think I'll just get some cheap shit

    • It's funny, as Ive seen plenty of people use them in cheap builds on YT. And they actually go okay, even though a lot of other maxspeedingrods stuff is terrible. Those turbos seem reliable enough, the only part being, a good quality turbo that is "identical" to it, will out perform it day in and day out. In both a lower boost threshold, and the ability to flow more air at the same boost pressure. As a cheap cheap replacement, not a terrible choice. For cheap and shouldn't blow in a day, not terrible (like other eBay/Temu turbos) for low cost and still decent performance, that's where the question comes in to play from the results I've seen. I'd actually find it hilarious to buy one, and strap it to a paddock basher or some other cheap as POS originally NA car, and send it to the moon!
    • The maxpeedingrods turbo is cheap and bolts on to stock parts. I think you just need a bigger silicone coupler for the intake. Its a cheap china turbo, but it's been running on mine for almost 3 years at 16-19 psi.
    • What do they look like right after you've tried to start it with everything connected? Also post photos of what they actually look like.
    • Also wanted to say, my new spark plugs are blackened looks like it's very rich. I have splitfire coilpacks but stock coilpack loom and ignitor. I tried directly grounding the ignitor ground to body as well.
