  1. Speaking of number plates... i ordered mine today. I'll probably get them by the time i meet up with all u guys (n gals) next. Probably not the funkiest/coolest plates but atleast i can say i got my own "custom" plates wh00p.
  2. Fixed my problem today and it took me all of 20mins and $0. The problem was 3 loose wires that connect to the black box motor inside the door frame. I put them back in and wrapped about 4 metres of tape around it to secure them in place then put it through its paces of about 30 up/downs and it didn't miss a beat.
  3. Ok next cruise to the gong im either: a) bringing a different chick (the 1 that lets me takes pics of her on my car) or B) hanging around swifty and taking pics of the gong w0m3n.

  6. I deffinetly need to get a CB i cruised aroung the gong 2 or 3 times with a chick and seen 1 trail of lines but by the time i turned around in all the traffic and stopped drooling over that green Walky everyone was gone. Spent most of my time at Towrodgi beach trying to get run over by cyclists.
  7. Yup i recently changed my oil + filter and you got about enuff left over for 1 topup.
  8. coco: Join the club mate its frustrating i know. I bought my car almost 4mths ago, when i first got it everything was 100%. About 1mth into it the driver-side window would sorta work when it wanted too. I'd just give a gentle whack to the electric window switch/buttons on the driver-side door and it would "all of a sudden" start working again and/or open/close my door and it would work. But now 2mths later my driver-side door just refuses to work (luckily its closed completely). I've taken the 2 little circuit boxes out and had a look at them, the 1 with the faulty switch has afew dirty looking solder joints on it which i suspect is what the problem is but im yet to find a replacement. (Gonna try JustJap tomorrow when they re-open).
  9. hahah yeah i remember that... funny shit. Their was 3 vacant spots out the front of tommys either side of a Porsche so i told nathan to park infront, by the time he got from the set of lights at the top of the hill (100m) to the vacant spots they were all gone *chuckle*
  10. Is 6C the place where we were last week taking the pics with frank and dr gtr ? Also.... If anyone that is coming happens to have the driver side electronic -switch-board-connector thingy sitting around the place can u bring it pls as my driverside window is fux0r3d and im badly looking for a replacement.
  11. 9pm Cumberland Burger King I'm there ! If anyone that is coming happens to have the driver side electronic -switch-board-connector thingy sitting around the place can u bring it pls as my driverside window is fux0r3d and im badly looking for a replacement.
  12. Edit: Already answered
  13. I'm up for it if its midday at Homebush (No idea where in H/Bush but it can't be too hard to find).

    Nye

    no plans here either, hopefully i end up in some chicks bed.... any chick i dont care as long as its her bed.
  15. How many people we got going, i might be interested (especially if meeting at midday)
  16. Yup now and then when i feel im getting good economy and i try and see how many km's i can get from a tank the most i have ever stretched it is about 60L (determined by the amount of fuel before it clicks when i fill up again). What i'd do to get a digital read out of - fuel consumption, range and L's remaining like my dads Vectra... geeze it'd be good.
  17. Cool thanks Bummer that makes me only 257rwhp. I think 275rwhp is my next target when i jump on the dyno again.
  18. Castrol Vortex (96 RON) = 350-380km / 60L Shell Optimax (98 RON) = 375-415km / 60L I think its coz im more conscious of how little km's im getting out of the tank so slow down alot on the 2nd half to try and squeeze more km's out of it and get me thru a week atleast. I've been doing abit more freeway driving lately and while having my A/C on 20c im about to crack 500km (Current record is 414km)which im really happy about because i know i could easily get 550km if i drove it like a normal person rather then giving it a squeeze on every single outing.
  19. 98% of what everyone said in this thread is way over my head (but hey im learning - give me a keyboard and mouse any day). While u've been on the topic of HP what is the conversion from rwkw -> rwhp ? Hopefully you'll have some before/after pics.
  20. bangbus r0x0rs. LOTR has never done a thing for me, the most i have seen is the trailers.
  21. 9pm Sat at Cumbo BK .... im there for sure !!! /me steals a CB so i dont have to worry about getting lost whilst following. Edit: Anyone from the Penrith area going ?
  22. Did anyone get anything apart from DVD's? I got another 2 to add to my collection. I got Mark Skaife's book and some clothes.
  23. I warned him of Dr Minh's adventures and he decided to keep rolling past :shake:
