What was he driving? 
I'm assuming you've got no idea who it is 


Didn't see.. Wife just told me it was green P's
Wouldn't have a clue... Been told who it was but don't remember/care. I do remember he plays for St Kilda though

Took the STI for a roasting down Dandenong tourist road, thing feels like a gokart! 

Once I hit the bottom brakes doing some nice squeaking, bedded dem babies in nicely. Stopped after a while which was good :)

Ordered a tow bar the other night so I can be a cool cat and tow a jet ski, this counts as first mod right?

I'm familiar with the relative size of modern jet skis

They are boats compared to their 90s counterparts, which you used to get thrown off so much more easily at lower speeds

Stability and top speed have come a long way

considering the amount of contact they have it makes complete sense. Unlike a car with 4 small rubber patches they have an entire hull available to them.

but that friction does impact them in straight lines, (thus why they like to get bow out of water)

 

used to watch the offshore power boat racing, the cornering some of them did were unbelievable, but my god the costs involved..

    • 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
