I don't rant often :angry:

but it's been one of those days and I've decided it's time.

So here is a small list of the traffic commandments according to Kel (in no particular order), that should not be broken.

I'm sure there are many more that could be added to the list- these are just the ones I've noticed in my 15 min drive to work today (GRRRR)

(1) Thou shall not inch out of side streets, stop and look at the approaching car, then pull out in front anyway .

(Even though I didn't really have to, I locked up the brakes and gave Mum the fright of her life!!! A small win to compensate for a commandment being broken)

(2) Thou shall not park your motorscooter in front of a sports car at the lights, particularly one who has just scored their first pole in the peak hour mayhem, and is ready to zoom

(Kel says: "no look, I guess because you're a distant 'relative' of a super bike, you're very likely to be faster than the Zed taking off" )

(3) Thou shall not drive along at 40 in a 70 zone (does this one even need explaining?)

(4) Thou shall not put your indicator on, and expect the traffic sea in the lane next to you to part so you may come across

(Kel says, "sure I don't mind slowing down - lucky the B-pillar rule doesn't apply in traffic eh?")

(5) Thou shall not pull into the empty left lane in traffic unless you actually have the go to go (another does this even need explanation commandment)

We need 5 more to make the 10..........

Please post so I don't think I'm a nutter

a little bit of decency never hurt anyone but just not to those dicks who zoom pass in merging left lane and expects everyone to part for him just because he's out of room.

Had a dick zooming towards me in the left merging lane and he was running out of room fast put his blinker on and decided to zip in front of me...........thats right bitch.....fat chance......sped up and cut him off REEEEEL good.....made him stop muahahahah

yeah.. I hate it when people go down the lane that is cutting off just cos everyone else infront of them merged over before it got difficult for everyone involved..

9) Thou shalt raise thy hand in a gesture of "thanks" whenst allowed into a lane in front of a fellow motorist...

C'mon world, it really pisses me off to see the lack of common courtesies we must all endure to make up for those (increasing) numbers who are too arrogant/self-important/disrespectful/"good" for everyone else - and not just on the roads...

7) Thou shall use indicators when changing/merging lanes (Some of us "claudes" weren't born with a 6th sense)

Thou shalt use indicators before changing / merging lanes.

Indicators are there to show others you are about to change lanes; trust me when I tell you its quite obvious when you are actually doing it.

I also put my hands up for this one it really sh$ts me when people dont say thanks! And i'll raise this one Thou Shalt not change lanes over the unbroken white line Just before everyone that actually waits till its legal to do so, Thus causing traffic chaos I.E warringah freeway heading towards the bridge where crossing the bus lane is legal for about 200m.....

14 or whatever we are up to. Thou shalt pay attention to the traffic lights and move off when they go green instead of looking in the backseat or staring off into space.

Also, 2 is on the money. While the light is red I beep them and give a jerk of the thumb to indicate where they should go. If they still think they are faster than me they will probably be faster than the car next to you giving you a free lane beside them from about the other side of the intersection which is yours to use then fishy past them scaring the crap out of them and hopefully teaching them that cars are better than bikes.

This works especially well when you are tuned quite rich and can spit black bits of shit and fumes all over them on your way past.

mwahahahahah.

disclaimer - I would never do this in real life. I just putter around in stupor paying no attention to the traffic lights.

      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

      What should I do next to hold the head on

      By MBS206 · Posted

      When you pulled it off, there is no signs of blown head gasket? Is it possible you have some other issues going on? Possible cracked blocked? Or do you think it's straight up lifting the head? Did you check what the head was torqued to before pulling it down (To see if possibly they're stretching, or starting to break threads out etc)?

      Chris' Toyota Mark ii JZX110

      By Rezz · Posted

      Seems like a decent result for a modded JZX110. They are bulky in comparison to the 100 and 90 models (which I'd prefer myself) but they are getting very few and far between here in JP these days. Thanks for the detailed review and the import process into the UK. I also have a car which I'm hoping to export from Japan at some stage so it's good to know if someone from the UK was interested in it. By the way the corrosion underneath is par for the course for cars which were located in/near the mountains or along the Japan sea coastline. They get huge amounts of snow every winter and the sodium chloride is used on the roads. Many cars have some kind of rubber like treatment underneath but they tend to limit it to the wheel arches underbody and fuel tank. Suspension arms and sub-frames will have similar corrosion to your JZX110 which is a common sight. See it all the time and car dealers here generally don't even mention it unless asked.

      new 1.5 LSD issues/concerns

      If the sound goes away when you clutch in, the 1.5/2 way diffs are just shit, and you are a normal person. The diff is likely "fine" but driving at anything under 30kmh is a violent horrible experience. It would be exaggerated with solid diff bushings and subframe bushings if you have those.
