Now that we've made some of y'all some money, sell when you think you've had enough stress / have earned a tidy profit and then you can never lose.

Or...stay with me and go down with the sinking ship / into the clouds with the oil gods. Have a mate on hot copper who is currently worth 1.4 million after today's gains. Massive investment and risk but, wow. Hope to join him one day.

You're on your own!

bikes are good eh

"On Saturday i had a little motorbike accident in the Bush. Bike is in pretty good shape however after getting up and walking around, then a painful drive to the hospital, found out I have a fractured left hand, fractured right elbow, and a fractured vertebrae in my neck. Had surgery on the neck on Monday, came home yesterday, and with a bit of r&r should be back to my usual self in no time, apart from the very attractive necklace i have to wear for the next 4-6 weeks"

but for those 10 rides or less a year, im free.

would rather get injured on dirt bike i guess than death on road

or do what dezz does and go track only, ive been doing few track days lately.. mad fun

yeah i guess track is much friendlier conditions. and you have more choice over how hard you want to push yourself.

such a minor mistake is game over man, though.

Got my 2x speeding fines from QLD. Both on the same road, same side-of-road-camera, two different days and different directions, both 70 in a 60 zone.

Would have to have been poorly signed...

Or maybe it's that damn non-linear Speedo on the golf hire car.

negro plees, the f**kin auto is in Prius mode 24/7 which means 7th gear at +40km/h

Last hire car I had was an i30, for some unknown reason it had a Traction Control button

It's engine is enough traction control by itself

did you play with the sports button on that?

The only difference I could find was that the steering sped up, no additional feel or holding gears or suspension, just a button that changes the speed of the power steering...

a button that changes the steering rack ratio is fairly impressive.

a car with 7 forward gears but only really uses 3 of them, not so much.

and a speedo that goes 0-10-20-30-40-60-80, seriously, why??? just do it after 120. only used to autobahn and private roads anyway

electric steering makes this very easy.

    • I can get more photos of it here soon and I plan to make a thread detailing the process. I received the car this way and it sorely needs refinishing. That is probably the most appealing photo of it. Up close it is fading, cracked, and needs to be re-glued. Depending on their condition I'm on the fence between refinishing or making a new set.  Another angle hiding the pimples and razor pumps  
    • According to this thread the RS4V with build plate RC40 comes with the R200 diff @ 4.083 ratio as well (mine has said RC40 denotation). We may need to check if the axle stubs are the same pattern as well. The auto subframes have longer axles. However I think yours being a later Series 2 as well, we should have the same bolt pattern for the diff stubs. Unless your upgraded rear also has upgraded axles. Either way, I would not be opposed to pulling the covers to check so I can inspect that  fancy rear core  Also I don't have HICAS. I don't believe that should change things but I hope the people here with heaps more experience than me can correct me if I'm wrong   Let me know if you want to attempt to make this work and I can get some pictures of mine from under the car. 
    • It's not that straightforward. For example I have had this code because my ignitor/power transistor wires were unplugged. It knows something is wrong but has no idea what it means. If you want to actually diagnose this I recommend following the service manual flowchart for code 21. Ohm out the harness, coilpacks, inspect the ECU, etc. And again, it's entirely possible for there to be no problem at all but if you're running a different coilpack it'll trigger the code because it doesn't like what it sees.
    • If it (the code) wasn't still current, it should have gone away by itself by now. No, nothing it 10/10. But it is quite likely. Everything else to do with the ignition could still be responsible (which is wires and connectors). The car is an old piece of shit now, so all the wires and connectors are also old pieces of shit.
    • Lock me in mate, although I'm not sure if I'll be heading up from Goulburn or down from Sydney, either way, return will be back to Goulburn
