  1. very nice! Even though its relatively easy to do, makes a big difference to the overall look of the car doesn't it? hmmm..the hubs as well hey... /me runs outside and starts prepping car to do the hubs Nah, but maybe one day cyrus: yours looks mad like that.. good choice of colour!
  2. Evo83: they're every month or there abouts so there will be others, although less over winter. Nice shots there warwick I'm off to look at the rest, even if extremely painful on dialup. The last one I went to, and was good fun to watch. Really want to get out there myself, but personally I think it would put a little too much pressure / risk on my car to want to do that. Now if i had a cheaper car....maybe if i ever turbo the 31 some fun could be had
  3. yeah.. doubt it. These things come and stay. But still he should be punished (e.g. voted out) for introducing it and thats the whole point I reckon. I've said it before.. and will say it again. Other states in Australia have a much more relaxed policy and people aren't dying all over the place on the roads. There are cameras, cops and everything else but its not so Nazi as I found in VIC. And the thing is no more lives really are lost in % of population as a result of a 10% tollerance. Its all about money, thats all it is. And the Victorian government would basically unable to support its funding for hospitals, schools, etc without this revenue so it stays.
  4. whats that fake cop car doing up on two wheels? looks cool whatever its doing! would like to see a shot of a skyline doing that
  5. like elbee says.. parking brakes only go to the rears in ANY car that i've ever seen. Yes, you can turn the wheels generally when its jacked up as its not one long axel.
  6. I wouldn't have too much qualms about changing oils.. because its already happened probably about 50 times before over in Japan and maybe here. Changing brand/types every change probably isn't a good idea, but just switching now and then is gonna be fine. I don't think its one of those "nooo, don't EVER do it" because you can't really avoid it occasionally. I'm not even sure what the reason would be either? That the different brands can react with each other to maybe cludge up things?? Like has happened to you, as you've said jimx
  7. Its always best to send off in printed form anyhow to any beaurocratic department. Emails to them are often just "fluff" and not for any official function. Many beaurocrats aren't the smartest bunch. Writing an email would be pointless for something like this to get your opinion heard.. thats why i sent a letter.
  8. READ THE RULES.. IF YOU DONT WANT THE ITEM AT THE PRICE ADVERTISED THEN DON'T BOTHER POSTING!
  9. to me just looks like a giant wing and slight trick in the photo just by the angle so it looks weird at the back??
  10. In Brisbane?? this is QLD and QLD specific thread.. but yeah, when i was in melb already been to palm. DMD is not the sort of place I'd take my car to get painted for this sort of thing. May need a small dent popped out on the door i've got on anyhow.
  11. yeah.. whos been taking the smack? don't fit in with the default scheme at all, some don't even make sense.. aggg... want buttons? Now these are nice buttons: (ok i'll admit I'm biased 'cause i made this set )
  12. ska: whats your warehouse? and what does sort of stuff does it have? for future reference. Don't really need any tyre polish stuff atm, i just had some in melb but left a lotta crap down there. yamutha: feel sorry for you .. I'm going out tonight to get blasted so hey
  13. I'm also after names, places etc for the work i need done .. when i do finally get it done Don't want to drive to 50 places to get quotes so some recommendations by people would be a great help. Probably needs to have worked on skylines, and needs to do a very good job.
  14. chris is out back but I could do with some if you can get it. Although the can stuff can be pretty shit.. best of the wipe on stuff ..the real icky tar stuff..
  15. mornin' .. where u go look for glow worms last night?
  16. There are meant to be some at Natural Bridge I think it is .. that do actually glow at night in the cave down there! Its true, they even do tours there and things at night.. Or is this what you're talking about?
  17. To see if its a previously written off vehicle you also have to do a WOVR check (Written Off Vehicle Register), in addition to the basic REVS check. Info is here for QLD: http://www.fairtrading.qld.gov.au/oft/oftw...nt&L1=Consumers
  18. well i picked #5.. but its not technically "D" for twincam.. its just RB30e
  19. ...you snooze you loose Defect is generally 1 point I believe if they choose to put "x points" on the defect statement you have lost points. Usually they just write out the defect and no points are awarded to you, the luuuuuuuuky driver. VIC has gone to a lovely 6 point system for p-plates, and basically if you breach that now you could almost be on your p's forever. In fact i probably already would be myself if that rule existed when i was a young lad. move interstate.. they don't even have to display p plates as such up here - truly!
  20. Should have said: "My horns musical? nope, but boy, should hear the noise about to come out of my ass".. and let one rip
  21. .. i think he may be referring to the extra hot air expelled by each of the respective tuning houses in pushing their respective packages
  22. AGAIN?! man, you've got cursed skyline syndrome like I had for a while! Soon as you put the cf bonnet and cop magnet it seems Wonder why now they are cracking down? VIC plates... oh its goooooooood.. Although I have yet to fully test this theory out. My car is mostly legal anyhow unless they really want to get picky.
  23. *yawn* this is degenerating to "this vs that" quicker than i thought. Good work!
  24. Depending on who you speak to, one intake modification is fine. That may either be pod or intercooler, or I guess whatever else is classified as an "intake modification" It will not have to be boxed but does have to be secured. When i lived there my car passed a few police inspections and also a full EPA test. But that doesn't necessarily mean you won't get picked up for it. Lovely system isn't it?
