  6. V8Bogan - "My Val runs 7's mate, it would blow your cars away" Us - "So where is this Val" V8Bogan - "Well ok maybe 7 is a bit low but V8's man, they are the best" Torana man - "Whats it run" Adz - "Not sure mate it's a track car" Torana man - "Hahaha but what would it run" Adz - "Dunno, high 12? No idea to be honest" Torana man - "hahaha, thats piss weak. I'd eat you up" Adz - "So you take it to Calder do you? Would be good to give you a run just to compare huh" Torana Man - "Ah well actualy that just it, It's still in progress. You know a side project"
  7. Looks like there a bogey on your 6 Mav! Happy Birthday!! Can't wait for the do!
  8. Just let me know....
  9. Exhaust mate, thats an easy one. There are much larger power gains to be had there and thats proven on a dyno.
  10. That was an awesome weekend! Prob best cruise yet next to the blackreefton spur. Sat night was a lot of fun and for once it was the girls who were the drunken messes not us guys! The second day was awesome, started off with a big breakfast in town then headed through some nice twisty roads down to the 12 Apostles and Loch Ard Gorge. From there down to Apolo Bay for a late lunch and drinks. From there back through the Otways.....now that was fun! We then hit Colac for a bit of a break and the locals here were a good laugh, bit like a mini Chaple Street. "How fast do they go" "Who's is the quickest" "Can you do a burnout" Hahaha. That plus the local cars doing laps of the main street, was some nice cars! From there back through Geelong and off home. I'd just like to say thanks to all who came along and for making it such a fun weekend! Was nice to get to know some of you better! For those that didn't come.........you missed out bad! There will be around 3 rolls of pics I'll be posting soon so keep your eyes open
  11. I had the same idea. Don't know though.
  12. There is no way your could machine a kangaroo paw design!
  13. What he said Hardcore setup - no holes
  14. I checked last year and found the 5000's for GT-T's were in development but was told they were canned as the demand would be too low. It's not "cost effective"....Im sick of hearing that this week
  15. I doubt it because you still have the reduced face surface...
  16. Hi all, after speaking with DBA (as I need new rotors) I thought I'd ask why cross drilled rotors are only recommended for "street use" because I know a lot of people wonder why this is the case and what will suite them. The E-mail reply was as follows... Question - "Just one more question. I know that cross drilled are not recommend for track use, is this because of the weakening effect on the rotors or is it more a liability thing? I have heard of cracking of the discs but realistically what sort of braking are you going to have to be doing to cause this?" Reply - "Adam, the reason why we don't recommend cross drilled rotors for racing or track work is due to the following: The disc rotor face surface area is reduced due to the holes and as a result this face heats up faster under braking. Once you release the brakes the rotors cool very quickly due to the holes. Due to this rapid heating and cooling of the rotor face it is possible for the rotor face to sustain what is known as heat shock. Because the rotor is unable to heat soak and dissipate heat evenly the face of the rotor can develop cracks around the holes. The use of slotted rotors allows the disc to heat soak and cool more evenly so the rotor is less prone to suffering from heat shock. Heat shock can be evident in cross drilled rotors even when used by an extremely energetic driver on the street. If the drivers driving style is fast with rapid jabbing of the brakes and exallerator pedals he/she will be more likely to have problems with cross drilled rotors. Due to this reason we recommend the fitting of cross drilled rotors for looks only and improved braking performance under normal driving conditions. I hope this answers your question, but if you have any further queries please feel free to email me. Kind Regards, Aaron Franklin Technical Sales Advisor Disc Brakes Australia Pty Ltd" Thought this might be some helpfull info!
  17. Wow, never realised how many insensitive guys there are out there! Yeah your right he will get over it but fark...... Good luck with it mate. Hurts for a while but you'll be better for it. There are plenty of nice girls round......to bad I had to wade throuh a pile of Ho's to find her but hey thats life! As for the car, Ash is right. Plenty of cheap cars round but do yourself a favor, if it's her car don't so much as call her.....don't give her the satisfaction of knowing your thinking about her! Good luck!
