Wow. How was the state of the drivers on the way home lunch time Monday from Albany. Sitting on 80-90 on the single lane and corners then ramping it up to 130 in the overtaking zones then braking back down to 90 at the end. Infuriating. In one overtaking section I sat in the left lane and they had ramped up to 150kmph by the end then braked down to 80kmph. My brain just can't comprehend the sheer idiocy of these people. As soon as they see your indicator the underpowered cars kick up 2 gears to lock you in or try to kill you. I've come to a few conclusions. The problem is not the police, the roads, the speed limit or 400hp on tap. It is the proud Western Australians who refuse to be overtaken at any cost when they have a mile of traffic behind them. Sitting on 80kmph then 300m to overtaking zone and they push that dunga as hard as it will go for 2km flat out. I would love to round them all up at 250kph but then the government would steal my car and crush or sell it. Madness. Being overtaken or merging is obviously a sign of weakness because you can only afford a car with 100bhp and you are jealous of all Nissan's in your mirrors. Kent's.

Noticed this also, used the WAZE app to blast past without fear of being snapped by a hidden camera - Dave

You are most certainly correct, but i think its more of a average australian not being able to drive. Driving fast is easier than driving slow cuz when ur driving fast ur having to concentrate on what ur doing, i see it in the mornings on the freeway, women doing make up, men having shaves and people eating and drinking. And dont get me started on what people are like when it rains ??

Oh the Western Australians Zoom Erratically app. Must down load it.

Man I got pinged by a camera passing a guy with a massive boat sitting on 80. The trailer was sitting on a massive angle down from his tow hitch running on 14"x165mm single tires. He ramped it up to 120 and just as I stuck my nose out the camera pinged me. So upset. My son has just got his L's. Was trying to teach him how to be safe and read the country traffic. Madness.

I've heard it said before that we often drive to our internal speedo of the surrounding conditions and when an overtaking lane starts, the road feels wider and "less scary" so people speed up. I think some people are either crap drivers and pay no attention to surroundings or they are doing it to slow down hoons and help society. It's completely inconsiderate.
This happens far too often and is the worst thing about long weekends on the road.

On a day to day basis doing 200+km on the Forrest hwy I see the difference in attitudes of others depending on which car I take.
SUV and ute- nobody notices me coming
Accent- everyone insists on passing then slows down then repeats after I pass again.
Skyline- only falcadores and luxury sedans speed up as I get close then slow down if I pull in behind

Been thinking of removing the sub and installing a pneumatic James bond dart type system. Either that or 800watts of police siren sound.

Same stuff happens in the wife's xr8. Nothing is faster than a diesel land cruiser towing.

Funny when you hit the corners and leave them for dead doing the speed limit and on the straight away they are right back on your hammer. Ridiculousness!

      What should I do next to hold the head on

      By Gareth87 · Posted

      I can see between the water jacket and cyl 3 there wasn't a hard line of combustion gas. It certainly appears that the issue is coming from there. Yes, checked the tension. All at 100ft lbs where I set them 5 years ago. These blocks can crack but generally when they have been over bored. Mine is only 0.5mm oversize at 89.5mm. They break between cylinders around the 91mm mark. No sign of that with mine. My gut feeling is the head gasket lifted a while back when the studs stretched and i bandaided it by retorquing the studs. It's finally let go.

      So, version 4 intake is on its way I was looking at these a while ago but at around $200 or more it was a little pricey for something that might not work, but, I had it in my watch list, but, I got a message saying it was on special, and I had a code thingie to use, it eventually came in at $120 delivered, so BAM, BUY NOW.....LOL I'll need to have a look when it arrives but I feel it will "look" better than what I currently have, as it comes with a PCV fitting, so I will be able to get rid of the alloy pipe that goes to the throttle body with the PCV fitting  Well, that's what the voices in my head are telling me  Oh, and this happened today Yeap, it was a Trojan, and it was cheap, so I headed back to the hardware store and actually spent a little bit more on a heavy duty,  one that was actually recommended by a plumber mate, a Cyclone one with a fibreglass handle that is actually rated for clay The broken shovel will eventually be "modified" into a short handle shovel
