Thou shalt retain ones lane upon yonder round-a-bout

I'm fed up with entering a 2 lane roundabout with another car, only to have them treat it as a single lane roundabout and have to slam the brakes on to prevent them ramming into my side.

There are lines and arrows on the road, use them!

Thou shalt still give way to the right on a roundabout, and any other traffic already using the roundabout.

F*ck the "new" rules on this one, the old one was fine!

Why do people insist on entering a roundabout - usually in your blind-spot, too - while you attempt to follow the rules and stick to your lane in a mulit-laned roundabout? I've been soooo tempted to cut people off for doing this to me, but I have respect for my car (and the income that bought it and keeps it in good condition).

It's usually some tool in a work ute loaded with tools and three bodies across the bench seat, so not only do they take off at the wrong time (either just before you get to them or just as you get beside them), they don't have the power/brakes/handling to at least get out of your way if you DID choose to cut them off...

Grrrrrrrrrrr... :)

to piss us off ... not to mention scare the shit out of you in the process

i wanna know who gave them their liscence <_<

think that instructor or RTA official needs to be shot

Wow... some interesting interpretations of our road rules. could be made simple with only one.

Give way to the person traveling on the road in front of you or on the road space you want to enter.

And remember who is working, they are quite often bigger than you!

    • Yes I can see how that would put you off HFM, especially with the price of good quality brake fluid. From what I understand it as you say the BM50 is the standard BMC for a R32 GTR, I must admit I would like to go far a Genuine Nissan BM57, but lack of cash prevents that at present. With the price being so close between the genuine BM50 and BM57 a BM57 New it seems a better choice as you gain that 1/16 bore size with the BM57, I would be interested in how much difference you feel with the BM57 fitted. I am going to take SteveL's advice in the short term and see how much actually comes out of that proportioning valve vent and save up for the Genuine Nissan part. Thanks for clarifying the HFM failure
    • Thanks mate. I just got the post inspection 1/2 done from state roads when the starter motor packed up, either that or the car alarm system is having trouble.  OEM part number 23300-AA112.
    • Hi, I though I was coming to an end in finding a replacement starter motor for a rb25de neo. I came across a starter motor from Taarks and a message below stating: Direct fit. 11 Tooth count. All below part numbers have been superseded to 11 teeth. Can some body shed some light on going from 8 teeth to 11 teeth apart from 36-month / 25,000 km warranty for passenger vehicles to 12 Month Warranty. Compatible with the following Nissan part numbers: 23300-20P00 23300-20P01 23300-20P05 23300-20P10 23300-20P11 23300-AA111 23300-AA112 23300-AA300 23300-08U10 23300-08U11 23300-08U15  
    • Low battery? Maybe check capacity? I know first-hand, on BMWs if your battery drops below 80% capacity, it starts causing strange issues.
    • 8.5 +37 = should fit rear, but I think it'll hit on front. What you want is low 30s/high 20's front, mid 30's rear. That 17" screenshot you posted looks good, I'd run it on my R32 (but that's long dead now). For tyre sizes, my rule of thumb is: 8': 235, 9": 255. But that's just my opinion. Nismo sizes: 18x8.5+35/18x9.5+38 is a good starting point.
