Mugabetown - Whoretownin' At It's Worst.


Recommended Posts

Yup.

I don't like domestic flights let alone the thought of international, the thought of flying overseas makes me nauseous then a few unfortunate events relating to flying overseas just add to that, needless to say, could not fly Malaysian Airlines even if it is just unlucky at what has happened... But I am sure you will have an awesome trip...

We are contemplating USA end of next year, early 2016... Even then I am tempted to stop in Hawaii for a day or two so that it makes the flight a little bit shorter...

Also... Who can suggest some places I can get a custom colour rattle can made up so I can paint some shiz?

Yeah It pretty much cant be bad, no work for 4 months, hard to go wrong really.

Thats probably better, I wouldnt mind doing shorter trips to different places, but Anna is doing courses while we are over there so it sort of has to go that long. I would like to do like 6 weeks there, 6 weeks in europe, 6weeks in South Africa, ect ect. but yeah at the end of the day I have 6 months of leave built up and I can afford to take it half pay so there is plenty of scope for those other things down the track!

Sounds like a plan! I want to do Europe but doing to start with USA/Canada and then another time go and do Europe (mainly Finland and Germany because relatives over there). I want to go to Japan but not sure about anywhere else in Asia or africa etc.

Autobarn

That's what Bodo said, I have no idea if they will be able to get it close to my Metallic pink/purple pearl since it's two colours on my car to make it what it is but if they can get it even remotely close I will be happy...

Martin let me know of a place in Geebung that may be able to do it and I've heard there is somewhere in Strathpine but not sure where. Gives me a few options at least, hopefully one can get close...

Paint matching in a can will never be 100%

Doesn't need to be, just needs to be close so I can cover the white and grey primer until I am ready for a full spray :)

main thing is they need to be able to scan a sample. not just find a paint code

Yeah, I can take my fuel cap off for them to scan otherwise I have a tin at home which is a fairly close match and was used previously on a door handle when my car was broken into.

    • 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.
