well I'm out now.. have fun boys

I'll take Tosh's place tonight then, but im only coming out for a drive. I have to work at 6am tommorow as always.

I was driving along pittwater rd today and just going across narabeen lake a pelican decided to releave itself on my car. Thank God elephants dont fly because this certain pelican nearly gave my car a colour change to white with fish pearl.

:throwup:

Hey good cruise guys :) the smaller numbers made us more transparent to police and local idiots.

sorry about the speeding fine ben, its doubble demerits... :) what happend?

Nick, that was a great cruise back, Thanks!

Ben got done for speeding?

Got any footage of my car I can use in my "for sale" campaign" Ash? I noticed today that i've still got splatterings of pelican dung on my car :(

Ahh the joys of double demerit weekends (which I totally forgot about).

On the way back from Palm Beach following Nick n Ash (they were about 1 corner infront the whole way). Came around a blind corner (doing the speed limit) to find a van had pulled out, jammed on my brakes hard to avoid running up the back of him (not his fault or mind just a stupid corner). Then afew corners later it went into 2 lanes so I drove down the inside lane to realise that on the otherside of the intersection their were parked cars so I tapped it to get past him to duck back to his lane and apparently their was a cop car somewhere around that part. "If" I was speeding it was for a total of 150m whilst I was overtaking the van so if I really wanted to I could possibly fight it (and also the fact that their were 4 cars within 50m of each other all doing a similar speed) but to be honest I have no idea of what speed I was doing coz I was concentrating on overtaking the van whilst avoiding parked cars and going thru a traffic lights intersection so no point in contesting it.

Got done for 86km/h in a 60km/h zone, $203 and 6 points (double demerits). Was only discussing with Nick n Ash about 15mins before how many points we all had (I said 6) etc so I must have jinxed myself. Just rang the RTA to ask about the suspension period etc (cos I'll lose all 6 remaining points) to find that I just got my 3pts back from a speeding fine 3yrs ago so I wont be getting suspended after all. Just means I will be on 3 points for the next 2.5yrs :(

I'll lay low for a while (won't be at the track day in 3wks) or may even sell the car and look at different options as insurance is gonna be an absolute killer when its due in 6mths.

    • Absolute f*cking nightmare. I had to take breaks constantly, and I was always pissed off when I got home. The line split in Italy on day 2 (we drove from the Netherlands), lol. Driving any narrow European town was... well, sh*t.   Appreciate it man. Here, I'll just drop a favourite from the load I took on Saturday.   I'll update here when things happen with the car, the thing is, with stock power and almost everything chassis-wise taken care of, there really are no problems. 268,000kms now and counting.  
    • Ah! I actually managed to snag a lightly used set.... that aren't so suitable for me right now. They don't work on a GTT without some cutting or creative heat moulding. I thought about reselling them myself cause I didn't want to murder them, but it looks like I'm probably going to attempt to murder them/melt them because I may as well. @GTSBoy @PranK can somebody close this thread?
    • Hey mate,  I have a set, one is slightly damaged but wont be noticable once installed.  Shoot me a message if your still after them 
    • I couldn't wait But, the black constant tension hose clamps were too thick and there wasn't enough clearance at the T/B and I couldn't get it to seat properly, so I had use a silver one there I also added some 3" silicone over the alloy bit that goes through to hole on the radiator support as it looked like it was sitting on the edge of the hole in the radiator support, I never noticed a rattle or anything, but there was a witness mark It is basicly done, and I can live with the silver hose clamp at the T/B, I will get a black clamp for the head vent though where it is attached to the bulkhead fitting  It never stops...LOL, only issue now with the shock tower brace is it slightly touches the under bonnet liner now, if I leave it it will either wear some paint off the brace where it touches, or damage the liner, so I removed the liner to see what I have to work with, with the liner removed I have about 20mm of clearance, but sadly the middle part of the underside of the bonnet is only dusted with paint and looks crap, so I cannot have that, but.... as I have a roll of Carbuilders premium under bonnet insulation in the garage laying around that is only 5.5mm thick (we were going to use it on the boys Patrol, but he crashed the front of it a few months and it was written off, hence why he now drives my old Honda Accord Euro), I'll use the OEM liner as a template and get the Carbuilders stuff fitted up to cover that dusted paint up
