Rizza I can hardly believe those things exist! As an aside, here's the reason we have a hire car at the moment. Sorry, too tired to upload, attached instead.

I wanted to share this event with all SAUers. Reversing at night out the front of my house, without a care in the world and was greeted by the soft grind of concrete and alloy rim. Boy I'm glad it was a hire car Sorry 'bout that Mr Hertz.

Thumbs up for joining the army. Good decision.

Couldn't agree more Black Betty. Well said.

Hi Glenn. It was $33 plus p & h. Chris (nice bloke) at the Toy Shop was happy to separate so he'll be even happier if you ring and take the other one Exxy for a piece of plastic but you know how much Mr Nissan would want for it... Cheers Mark If you want, have it couriered to me ($7) and I'll Auspost it down to you to save some a few bob. If that'll help, shoot over a PM. Cheers. ** Chris Toy Shop Auto Imports BERESFIELD NSW (near Maitland) 02 4966 2233

*raises hand* one please Peter

Disregard, found one at the Toy Shop.

Zac is a great guy and is very fast on the email replies when you have questions. Highly recommended!

Edit: Double post

For sure Duncan, it's stuff all. So I guess what we're talking about is not that one is better than the other, but that if it's 1/10th of a bee's proverbial then who cares?

Hi guys. I'm after the matching part in the following picture. For some reason the car only had it on one side. I'm after the driver's side please. Cheers Mark

Totally agree with you Jake, it is impossible! Just pointing out that from what I've read/seen it isn't technically the width, although you are spot on with regard to actually matching in reality. 260RS? Nice!

I'll make up some number just for the sake of simplicity. Assume the OD of the hose is 10mm. If hose A expands to 11mm and hose B expands to 15mm: Hose A has increased by 10% Hose B has increased by 50% Hose B has not increased 40% more than A, it has increased 5 times that of A. What I'm getting at is, the rubber hose increased by 1.7%, braided >1.0%, therefore the rubber hose has increased by nearly twice what the braided line did.

Damn. Then they'd probably fine me for having part of my body outside of the vehicle too.

From the way I understand it, the problem is matching rolling circumference, not the diameter or width. The reason for that is that the wheels will rotate at different speeds if you have different rolling circumferences, which confuses ATTESSA. You could have a 16" on the front and an 18" wheel on the back, and as long as the circumference is the same, you're ok.

I think I've missed the point with Rule 151(4): Ride motorcycle more than 1.5m from another. I guess than means I can't leave the house unless I have a riding buddy... Bring on more fines for not keeping left. Bring on more fines for rear fog lights and highbeaming. Bring on more fines for hand-held mobiles. And the best one, Rule CI96A(2), $50 for "Riding bicycle furiously!" Nice. Guys what's the difference between a burnout and an aggravated burnout?

Yep, all the way up to 28%pa. That's what you pay when you ring those guys on TV that say, "no job? poor credit? been bankrupt? We can help you!" because you pay through the nose for the loan. Dude, when you are shopping for cars, try VERY hard to keep thoughts of cruising, zoom zoom and so on out of your head. Look at the car as a tool or a piece of equipment. Buy one that meets your requirements and is going to give you the least problems. Salespeople will always work hard to appear approachable and friendly, that's their job. ALL salespeople can "do you a deal" because they have sooooo much fat. GTST is right on, don't buy from a dealer, they are a waste of money. By all means, use a dealer to find out which car you like, then go privately to buy. Pay cash. I've sold a few cars and when a guy turns up with cash: 1. You know they are there to buy a car 2. When they turn to walk off with that cash, your price becomes negotiable again...

I'm pretty sure that myth was busted a while ago.

Guys please correct me if I have it wrong, but the way I see it, if hose A expands by 1.7% and hose B expands by 1%, then the conclusion is that hose A expands 70% more than B, not a .7% difference...? So 1/1.7 = braided has only 60% of the expansion that rubber does?

2GU UP had a carbon fibre lip made up and mentioned that the guy that did it was happy to produce more. Perhaps shoot a PM to 2GU UP and see what he says...?

I want a kit to make my R32 look like a VX Clubsport

Guys ECR033 is right on. If it is factual then there is no problem. MYS013 has shown a dyno printout stating which tune came from where. Workshop X would have to prove that MYS013 lied about the dyno sheet and that the statements were unjustified. From dictionary.com - defamation is communication to third parties of false statements about a person that injure the reputation of or deter others from associating with that person. Mate I would be grateful if you posted the name of Workshop X. You could save other SAUers from throwing away $400 for tunes that are not worth the expense. If you went to a restaurant and the chicken wasn't completely cooked, you could not be sued because you shared that info - it is not a false statement. Anyway, sorry about the long post, my 2.2c Mark
