there's a button up the top of SAU between "Members" and "Help" - it will give you the answer.

I don't reckon they were mucking around, Horner was telling Webber to quit being such a mope and Webber was telling him to blow it out his arse. Fun times ahead in the RBR team! Mark doesn't give a shit he's signed with RBR for next year if he doesn't get a WDC in these 2 years he never will. I doubt he has the means to get there, personally. Still enjoyed his dominance today though.

Coilovers Or Spring And Shocks?
Kinks replied to cptpugwash's topic in Suspension, braking, tyres and drivetrain
did that but with basic sports bilsteins that have circlip height adjustment not a thread like coilovers. fitting them in 2 weeks time they are replacing flogged out OEM shocks and springs. i would not go coilovers in a daily, you are paying for height adjustment, springs that are usually too hard and a cheap shock absorber unless you spend a good deal of money. -
Very obvious where the RBR allegiance lies. They should have said sorry seb, yours got damaged mark kept his in good nick. there's f**k all difference anyway so just get out there and get on it. To actually take it off one drivers car and put it on the others is showing that with only 12 points difference at the halfway point in the season they are already using any chance to give Vettel an advantage and make sure he wins WDC not Webber. if it was 3 races to go and vettel had 20 points on his teammate then sure. but now it's just a flimsy excuse.

Tiff is a much better driver but he also comes across as a bit of a cock. Clarkson used to be rubbish but he's been practicing his slidey slidey and he's not that bad now. the TG guys are all much better fun Tiff has the entertainment value of a German once you get past his driving skills and that other broad Vicki is just annoying. TG for sure. 5th gear bores me to tears oh here's a fast car, Tiff you go drive it sideways. Great.

If you were a snotty executive at Lamborghini would you want your company's brand name on a Polo? I mean.. they're built to a price and I have no doubt that for the price they're good cars. But no.

Petition Against Speed Camera's
Kinks replied to yellow300zx's topic in General Automotive Discussion
ADRs state that your speedo has to read between 0 (perfect) and +10% of the actual speed. Therefore if you are doing 60km/h the possible speedo reading is between 60km/h and 67km/h (rounding up). At no time is it possible for your speedo to register under the speed limit but you be doing more than the speed limit, so if they ping you for 61km/h then your speedo definitely said you were doing at least this speed. However I think that expecting people to keep that close an eye on their instruments is unreasonable and some fair leeway given to not ping people for under 10km/h over. Most cops won't do this anyway, speed cameras.. well.. they're clearly marked so you should be conservative with your speed just in case. -
Lamborghini are owned by Volkswagen, who make the Polo. what's your point? sorry, I don't mean to be so abrasive.. but the fact that Continental don't put their name on it should probably tell you something. I'd say that brand of tyres is built to a price and that price is "not very good".
-
don't forget you are pushing a brick through the air. I bet you would have noticed a difference if you'd stuck to 110km/h. My Skyline did 1/4 of a tank to gosford and back and the rest of it daily duties, stuck in traffic etc. 10.4 litres to 100km.

english motherf**ker. do you speak it?
-
tyres are either old (rubber has dried out) or underinflated meaning excessive sidewall flex has fatigued it. never heard of that brand before and that's reason enough to avoid them. apparently good what - to the guy who sold them to you? of course he says they're good he just got money for jam. never mind he almost killed you. i'd be pissed.

Max Boost The Standard R33 Turbo Can Deliver?
Kinks replied to Torques's topic in Engines & Forced Induction
black screen, downloaded at 500kb/sec for about a minute and then i gave up. meh. sorry dude your website sucks i'm not waiting for that shit -
you know you're pro when you do procaine

the only other thing you can try is "exercising" the potentiometer next to the greencap. this pot is used for calibrating the tacho and normally will be near enough if you leave it alone. if the contact has gotten dirty then it will make poor contact and possibly cause the problem as well. using a screwdriver turn it back and forth a few times and then reset to the original position.

What Type Of Diff Do R33 S1 Have?
Kinks replied to ClutchBurndout-:('s topic in Suspension, braking, tyres and drivetrain
all R33 turbos (dunno about the povo spec) come with a viscous LSD unless you have an "ALSD" light on your instrument cluster in which case you have the active LSD. I'm sure a search would uncover a wealth of information if you want to know more. -

Want To Go For A Ride In A 500kw Drift Australia Car?
Kinks replied to Majanal's topic in New South Wales
sure thing mate -
Yep matty - stop at orange unless it's unsafe to do so. going through a red at any time is illegal though. Why do you need to accelerate? If you have no choice but to carry on through the intersection then go through it at normal speed. Trying to beat the red just adds speed into the mix and makes it more dangerous. If a semi is that far up your ass that he can't stop for an orange light then he's coming through the intersection after you and that will all be captured on camera, so I'm sure you would not get fined in that situation.

Quick Question On Lsds.
Kinks replied to KezR33's topic in Suspension, braking, tyres and drivetrain
yes. a 1.5 way will act very similarly to a 1 way or open diff because the locking action under decel is minor. -
injectors, it's normal. don't worry about it BOOM!

Cant Get My Front Sway Bar Off My R34 Gtt?
Kinks replied to Harey's topic in Suspension, braking, tyres and drivetrain
highlights the importance of using good tools. precision 6 sided sockets made using quality metal will make your life SO much easier for high torque (suspension) applications. use a shitty socket set or one with 12 sided sockets and you'll just round off nuts all day trying to undo them. a few years ago i bought a good toolset (ratchet, socket, spanners etc) and it's one of the best purchases i've made. -
Mixed Feedback On Legal Issue For Rims
Kinks replied to Lucy The Skyline's topic in Suspension, braking, tyres and drivetrain
you might want to start here: http://www.rta.nsw.gov.au/registration/dow.../vsi09_rev4.pdf they could be hesitant about the increase in width or the offset. and you have to make sure you overall rolling diameter is close or your speedo will be out. -
