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.

      Power steering pump r32

      By waxracing · Posted

      Thanks Mate, I did know you could do that but i know there is a pump out there that you can bolt on and it all lines up. I was told about it and then forgot the model, I figure if i am pulling it apart i will just put a new one on

      You can also remove the veins from the HICAS portion of your existing pump.

      Rear subframe stay bracket bolt removal issues

      By DatsunBanana · Posted

      Trying to swap the rear subframe on my R34 and can't remove the L-shaped stay brackets between the front subframe mounts and the sill/chassis. I'm in the UK so rust is a problem. I've used loads of WD40 and then Tunap 103 for days beforehand. I backed off the bolts forward a bit, backward a bit repeatedly for ages to try and avoid snapping. They have all moved a few full turns. The one I've spent most time on has come loose and I can turn with fingers, and it will pull down and push up 2-3mm. But it won't come out. I can tighten it back up and loosen it off again repeatedly but it still won't come out. I assumed there's a captive nut inside but if that's broken loose then I can't understand why I can always tighten the bolt back up - I'd expect it to just spin both ways. Any ideas what's happening here? I can't visualise what's inside there to cause this.

      Who has a Infiniti Q60, Q50 (V37)?

      By MR51MN · Posted

      Cheers, yeah it was recently imported, is the actual Nissan not an Infiniti so will have to do some chasing around for parts.    Any ideas if the side skirts from a Q50 would fit on the 400r?
