  1. I'll be pit bitching again
  2. Thanks but apparently its not so great, just got an offer of $15.5k Ahh so close yet so far away.
  3. Sure it was your wallet that you emptied ?
  4. I had the other burgundy r33 parked not far from you out the back in the pits (spectating). I didn't realise you were SAU and everytime I was out in the pits you had about 10 people around ur car so didn't say hello.I Was there watching from about midday - 3pm. Looks like your rear end was quite loose most of the day, very twitchy coming off the bridge (from memory you even spun there once) and also the following right-left. I timed 2 of your sessions and you were doing pretty consistent 23-25's even with the ass end all floating around. That ex race car Alfa was only doing 1:20's and afew MX5's were doing 1:23's (going by my timing). A couple of those open wheel things were down in the 1:14's and were screaming down the straight, loved it. Looked like a pretty decent day except for only getting 3-4 timed laps per session (which was about every hour). I think they could have let a few more cars on the track or allowed 6-7 timed laps for each group but then again looks like their was plenty of other organisation going on behind the scenes. Probably 1 of the best trackdays as far as turnout and organisation. Where can I find more info on those sprint days? Future trackdays/costs etc?
  5. Were you in the maroon R33 yesterday?
  6. Keep the $2k in your pocket and take it to a trackday. They are 10x more fun on the track than they are on a public road. That's when the -real- mod addiction starts because you realise their is about another $10k to spend when you thought you were finished
  7. Well they fell out.... but didn't fall off
  8. Well their is only 1 straight 1 left
  9. Is this the 'kit' or just the turbo?
  10. change them over ya p00f.
  11. ba-bump Price reduced.
  12. Going back about a year now a mate of mine and 2-3 of his mates were in his dads company car heading out along the Northern Rd (western sydney - Oran Park etc) to another mates place late at night. A truck was heading towards them coming around a corner, next thing a fat cow smacks them in the front right of their VT Commodore and it rolled over off into the paddock on the side of the road and was a right-off. A farmer had left a gate open, cow wandered onto road late at night and stood in the path of an oncoming truck. The truck driver didn't see it until it was too late and the bull bar smacked the cow straight into the front right of my mates car. They called the cops/ambulance etc and the farmer came out with his tractor to remove the cow (still alive). He put a chain around its neck and attached to the tractor and then slowly started to drag him off the road. Only thing was his body was too heavy for the tractor so his neck stretched about 1m long without the body movingbefore.... *pop* ..cow was in 2 pieces...
  13. Well that was easier than I thought... when do you want me to pickup the keys? /sits at home twiddling thumbs
  14. Speaking of borrowing things how about I bed-in those new brake pads for you on the GTR Richard? It'll only take about 30-40 laps of EC tops I promise
  15. I was of the understanding that you either get the adjustable exhaust cam gear -or- the tomei poncams, not both?
  16. Shit that launches good!!I seen a big sign on the motorway the other day advertising the 6 Litre. I was like "wtf that's more than 2x RB25 engines, where am I gonna put the 2nd 1" haha.
  17. Does someone going want to mark me down as a pitbitch for them? Happy to wear a pushup bra for the day If I knew my car was going to be 100% i'd put my name down to compete but im unsure at this stage.
  18. I'll be pit bitch'n soon as I finish work (~12ish)
  19. Post some interior/exterior pics up, not too hard to tell. Note: S1.5 has a S2 engine.
  20. Are pit/backup bitches allowed?
  21. Reedy they have you down as an R32
  22. (Model: JVC KD-SH99R MP3) Well my front/rear speakers sounded really tinny and then when I plugged my subwoofer+amp in it made a horrible noise so I disconnected that straight away. So I took it to a local shop (friend of a friend works there), not the best place but i'd have to travel a good 30mins to get it checked by a decent shop so I thought it might have just been a loose wire or something simply (I know absolutely nothing about car audio, don't even know how to take the HU out) so got them to look at it anyway. I left it with them for an hour with a "im not sure what the problem is, find out and lemme know". I returned and they said it was an internal grounding fault so they soldered "something something something" to "help me out" and said if it breaks again to just buy a new HU. It worked perfectly on the way home, but when I went to drive my car the next morning it was back to the tinny+distortion so I havent used it in like 4-6wks. I didn't ask them to bodge it but they thought they were doing me a favour (shop manager had a import and he liked mine). Cost me $80 which I wasn't happy about when it broke (didnt ask for a bodge job and it broke 24hrs later) but ah well im over that now, just wouldn't mind it fixed. I'm not missing it much coz I dont drive my car much (especially long trips) but I hate things not working properly.
  23. All depends on how big your balls are for that kink... I think my speed was around 160-170km/h.
