Be Rimon

Get mad anyway

am geting sick of people blaming abbott for the protest rights thing/issue.

now im not 100% certain (but am relatively familiar with how laws get passed etc), pretty sure that its not his or the parties "fault". if he is going to cop the flak, does that in turn allow him to be praised of what does get passed during his reign as PM? dont think so.

good video though

Worm clamps or T-Bolt clamps for intercooler piping?

Worm clamps distribute tension evenly across the circumference of the pipe, but chew out hoses and are less durable.

T-Bolt clamps distribute tension less evenly (area near bolt exerts less tension) but tend to be more kind to hoses, and are more durable.

What do you guys use/recommend?

[Miguelone]

Norma/ABA Constant Tension clamps.

[colourclassic]

Proper constant tension clamps seem to be pretty obscure. Where can I buy them?

[Miguelone]

Racepace stock them I believe. Grant bought some a while back. autopartswholesalers.com.au also sell them. You can buy them in packs or individually which is good too.

Be me and drag three different cars beating them all. VE SS gives thumbs up out the window to say well done / respect. Passat R36 windows down window and yells out something about his coilpacks failing. S15 drives past on the flyby staring straight ahead with no acknowledgement. Stereotypes ftw

Really surprised by how quick that R36 was, even above 100. Only 220kw and 1600kg+, must have some short ass gearing and a trick gearbox. Big sleeper.

[Leroy Peterson]

yeah and they're all driven by soccer dads as lease vehicles, hence why they're driven like they're stolen.

no one wants to drag the pulsar... except I'm super cautious about flooring it in intersections... you just never know what's lurking

In other news also VicPol now have cameras that can catch you on your phone from 700m away? 4 points, $4xx fine? But I think this is extended to "distracted driving" I.e. make up and food?
