Here we go boys and girls, the perfect opportunity to pay out on the clowns doing the block in your respective city.

What's your favourite (read the worst car) you see doing the block?

My favourites are.

A beige Corolla SE hatch, WRX scoop and bonnet vents, big 18"chromies, rowdy exhaust and a loud stereo. Yep, all those mods turn a granny car into a genuine performance car don't they! :wassup:

Any Excel with a body kit, particularly the ones with the big Cobra stripes!

Sorry kids but if you are going to throw money at a car why not start with a credible car to begin with?

The Alpine Excell from Launceston. It's got a mega huge Alpine sticker down each side of the car, the stickers down the door (blitz..etc) ,a 10" rice cannon, and a blindmans tacho.

We should take pics and make it a rice hunter thread (and by rice i mean any car with usless external mods)

Definitely da little turbo things buzzing round........lika da ET lasers.......I av seen dudes drivin deez rice burners man.......they fit da huge blow off valves to em........only problem iz dat they are so pathetically powerless dat they barely have enough a da pressure to open upa da blow off valves man!!!!!........soundza real poor man...real poor!!!!..............fizzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzz :wassup:

hmmmm i have an ET and dont run the BOV is that a problem for ya? 105kw atw with only 900kgs to haul about makes it pretty quick for a 21year old FWD car....and if u actually knew anything u wouldnt be sayin ET laser its actually a Nissan Pulsar not a ford or mazda

That excel with the alpine sticker is sik man its hell Fast ....bwahaahhahahahahahahaahhaahhahhahahahahahaaha he is always tryin to razz someone

just anything that p plater's think are race cars, don't mean to cop out on the p plater's but I swear they're just getting worse all the time...

I totally agree. As a p plater myself I wish to apologise on their behalf.

...Anyways...I always see this hyundai excel with a bonnet scoop and custom bodykit...what's even funnier is that it has a baby capsule in it. Oh and I know a guy with a non-turbo silvia which has a bodykit with normal rims and exhaust...looks so lame...and non-turbo supras which have huge exhausts....it's like trying to sugarcoat shit and trying to claim it as chocolate

got to love all the all show no go cars going around lonnie!!! Some of the lancers and crap with clear rear lights stickers, dumb personal plates realy look sh!t! The orange excel with the stupid body kit and stripes and crap takes the cake for the crapest car ....well any excel for that mater with a whale tale wing!

And the cars with all the stickers down the doors for turbo bits and pieces,..... and the car is NA!

RICE, RICE baby!

my bros wheels are rice as also!!!!!!

    • Just as a thought, if it's in neutral, thats your drive line disconnect, not the clutch. Clutch slip at the dyno with pedal fully out, is actually adding a second disconnect. So it's not a clutch issue if you're in neutral. Just a bit of friction dragging the output around while in the air.
    • The HG high flow is excellent, and costs about the $$ you're talking about. But it, and probably every other highflow, uses a diffeent core than the original turo, and the original Hitatchi core is quite long. So, I think it is inevitable that there is likely no such thing as a highflow that just "bolts on" with no other effort required. And the same is likely true for HG's outright replacement "bolt on" turbos (the ATR things). And the same is likely true for anything similar from elsewhere. I have no idea if the cheap Chinese/Taiwanese complete turbos from eBay/Temu/etc are as bolt on as they claim. I mean, they claim the bolt onto the NAs as well as the turbos, and we know that can't be "bolt on". But it wouldn't matter because I'm not buying a $169 4 psi turbo for anything other than a paddock basher.
    • Bummer...yeah i "need" something to "ease" up the work and for my driving it would be enough.    Iam counting the tune "without" turbo. I do not mean "cheap" like something from Temu around 200 USD, "Cheap" is something around 1000 USD? 
    • Starter motors used to use the weight of metal (magnets) to provide torque. Now they use (more) current instead. This. It's completely normal.
    • So thing that had me stumped, but I think is OK....is that when it was up in the air, in neutral I had it running to bleed to coolant while I put the wheels back on. I noticed the rears were turning (slowly) which I'd never seen before 20250928_163512.mp4     Because there had been an issue with clutch slip due to pedal adjustment on the dyno, I assumed there was still and issue so spent some quality time upside down under the dash adjusting the pedal....but no matter what I did the wheels still turned in neutral. Even disconnected the master cylinder to pedal rod and same. In despair, I even removed the clutch slave so there was no chance of any preload causing it.....still happened. So either: 1. Something is not right in the bellhousing, or 2. Its a thing sometimes with cold, thick gearbox oil Internet says it might be 2, I hope so!
