Biggest concern for me is the roos...there's so many of them about in my area at night, and a lack of proper lighting in some areas doesn't help. That stretch of road just before you turn left to go to Lanyon shops after coming back from tuggers (im shocking with street names :cheers:) is terrible, very poor lighting. I've seen a few near misses around that area because of the roos.

My car definitely doesn't like the bounciness of the parkway, or should i say the coilovers. Last week my transmission went into 'fail safe' mode because it detected 'excessive wheelspin and/or hard braking'. Was just caused by driving @ 100 down a bumpy section of the parkway and the wheels slipping alittle across every little bump.

Its more irritating when you get 2 fools in the left and right hand lanes doing the same speed 90-100 kms/h and 100 cars behind them all tailgating, who is at fault here.

the fools that dont have the balls to do 110 and then get "back" into the left lane. ooooo oooooooooooo

so frustrating!!!

yeah going slow in the right lane is one of my biggest hates...after cyclists!!!

i wont tailgate people, i dont want to wreck their car or mine, but if 2 people are going under the speed limit in both lanes and im in a rush then i'll get rite up the ass of the car in the right lane for about 5seconds, then back rite off, it gives them the mesge that they r pissing me off and doing the wrong thing without sitting on their ass untill they move.

:werd:

exactly! I won't tailgate but i'll let em know I'm behind them and that the signs "keep left unless overtaking" aren't just there for the hell off it :D

*most* ppl move over - yet you still get the tossers who think they have a right to stay in the fast lane cos they're doing 2km over the limit.

HAHA I think its more of a , "oh my this perosn is so far up my rear.... oh no its ok they have backed off now."

or

"oh how rude some people are sooo pushy."

for *^%( Sake!

If your gunna drive do it consideratly, And that includes letting non possy people through!

why oh why are they in the right hand lane anyway? do they think its safer? or do they just like the attention

feel better now.. thanks

I drive home slot of the way in the right lane for safety reasons :)

There's trees/bush on the left, and i like that lane wide buffer zone if a Kangaroo decides to play Car Roullette

yeah im a bit the same, when its not busy, or even in the middle of the road (two way st.) just gives more time to see and react

    • Just don't use ChatGPT or any other artificial stupidity for the equivalent of googling. Their demonstrated inability to discriminate reality from hallucination should be enough to make them totally untrusted. LLMs don't know anything and cannot think to even the smallest extent. They are just predictors of the next word, and that should never be confused with capability.
    • I think, given the usage model described in the OP, I'd never ever experience the wonders of the 400kW upgrade. What I really need is boost from 2000rpm and probably no more than 260-270rwkW. But I suspect that the highflow is not actually the turbo for that purpose, so I may in fact need to get a G25 or 30 or something right sized and very spooly. We shall see after it is tuned. I've had to back the boost and boost ramp off to stop the thing from pinging since the highflow went on, so I've been almost living the NA life for 9 months now! Injectors are recently in hand. AFM is in hand. Dyno is fixed. Just need to clear a queue of f**king Supras out of the way (and probably fit my new gearbox). So....some time this year? Lol.
    • For what I gather is a Sunday/summer car....braided is fine. You're not going to be left without a vehicle and you have plenty of time for inspection/maintenance. Oof. I wouldn't use them that way. They can probably handle the temperature** but the internal corrugations means that their flow characteristics are a bit shit. Lots of extra friction and pressure loss. Makes them flow like the next pipe size down. ** They are stainless, and the stainless can usually be at least something like 304L, which is pretty good at higher temperatures (unlike 316L, which I would use for a wrt/corrosive environment, but not a particularly hot environment). But the welding needs to be top notch. And even then, because you usually need at least one cone-seat end on them (because you can twist the hose and do up both ends at the same time unless one of them is a union) they can be prone to coming loose with heat cycles.
    • I don't have the OEM oil feed lines though and the turbo-wraparound line is torn, only has water. My plan is to get replacements for these and just connect a braided line to there. And make sure it's leak free. Hoses like these are also sometimes used to connect external wastegates, so for an EGR I think you're good using them.
    • Alright I understand. The most likely case is probably gonna be that I just keep the OEM unit in the car as long as it works.
