same here.. i refuse to pay tolls too! thats y i use parra road to get into the city..

the Teins are lowering springs ay? (sorry new to replacing my shocks and springs)

sounds pritty good to me. haha, every1 seems to fly along them back streets in arcadia lol, my can? yeh i know ay.. its pritty quiet compared to some

hehe nar i dun drive with any out side the car on, dun worry... only the footwell ones are on all the time hahahaha sounda bout right.. mostly the IGA one, haha and yeh Berowra gorge is insanly tight! .. i avoid it.. that and i wouldnt be able to get onto the ferry anyway with out wiping out half my car. and as for the crusie thing.. nar not my house, it would be grid lock in nancy place! :lol: and also this is the kinda street where id proberly wake up the next day to see some msg spraypainted on my car...

haha, aww today was funny seeing how many partly melted roads there where.. old northen road in glennorie.. the long stright part where it goes from 60ks-80ks, its all sticky as! , would give the best grip for a drag i think

isnt that per normal for any turbo to start to drop a bit of boost on the high end? i know mine does and the guy at uas said it was normal and good

thats nuts! .. ya could like do burn outs in almost every gear! hahaha

oh yeh.. http://www.ranicx.com/imgs/sau/autosalon05/

nar i dont have blue neons around my rear number plate.. the lights on the rear number plate of mine are red tinted, and the neon under the back of the car is an aqua blue (same with front) and the sides are the normal blue ya see for neons. my friends dad owns a 300, and he has blue neons around his rear number plate and front i think.. not too sure though if they actualy work. it links hornsby and galston together. its about a 5 km road down into the gorge and then up the other side. its rather narrow and windy with tight bends.. not alot of room to get up much speed, say around 80ks if ya dunw ana go flying off the edge into the gorge bellow, lol.. but yeh, its not a bad surface ether, its limited to cars only as the bends are so tight, which means the road doesnt get stuffed up by trucks yeh ill just keep on doing what im doing cause im not doing anything rong.. and hopefuly who ever made the letter will actualy come to us to talk about it insted of hiding behind a letter. our neighbour to our right, her husband has cancer and getting kemo so hes pritty sick and used to get woken up when i arived home late at night, and they politly came up to us and told us of the problem and now i just park further up the drive (on the front lawn actualy), so as to not wake him. i have no problem with that at all.. thats how this other person should have approched me, not by writing a cowardly letter. oh and what is the max noise level for a cars exhaust? .. i know im most defently below it as mine isnt loud, its just a very low bassy tone that tends to travel at night.. sound very nice, lol

thats the thing, i dont even know any1 in my street.. i make a point of not getting to know any1.. apart from most of them are realy anoying ppl and theres no hot chicks

ah ok.. mite use the multi meter or sumthing... duno i just dont wana make it ireversable..

nar havent bothered trying yet... dad hasnt been home yet, still at work, but mum was like all worryed about it.. but i sure had many many things to say about it, mostly directed towards the ppl who wrote the letter with many heated conversations with me swearing proberly every 2-3 words.. but yeh.. not happy about it at all. i feel like i should just crack a burn out down the entire street or sumthing... barsted

looked very nice, i just wish i had relized it was you earlyer lol

rofl!! just hook up the 12v batt to the keyhole so when the alarms on it would zap any1 that touches it ... if needed put in a small step up transformer, for that added "ouch" effect ^_^

lol.. im sure my neighbours would love me oh and it would be a short crusie if it was in my street.. like maybe 700meters? lol... and its all straight with no bends, but its got a few slight hills but honistly, i realy dun think a meet up in my street would solve much, if anything.. but im still all for a crusie starting near my place here in galston! many places to meet.. this weekend yeh? i soooo wana go cruising! haha

blured yeh there are retired people in our street, i think there mite be some next door, not sure..

its not overly loud at all.. if anything its quite a low nice bass tone, not that loud.. i duno if others have this, but theres a muffler half way through the exhaust as well, which anoys me cause its so large that its lower then anything else on the bottom of the car and tends to scrape alot on a non lowered car.. maybe if moonie came a crusie she could hear it hehe

yeh could be an older resident. good point. down the road a bit there used to be alot of ppl that would do burn outs there (ya could tell cause there was always new tire marks out side the one house, lol) and it was known as the party house.. didnt bother me one bit oviously it did bother some1 else which is fare enough if there doing burn out all the time. i usaly change from first to 2nd at around 30ks or 40ks (in which case i just skip 2nd and go to 4th to just crusie the 200meters till i go back to 2nd to turn the corner)

by all means please do... Nancy Place, Galston, NSW .. its in the northwest side of sydney. turn right when ya come off martin rd (its like all of about 50meters long) and im up that end. nancy place is a short road, proberly about 500m ether end of martin road. slightly downhill towards the T intersection nar i dun care realy.. doesnt bother me if ppl know what street i live in.. alot of ppl i dont know, know where i live *shrugs*

also they are complaining that i get home too late on some week nights, which is around 2am some times. which i have in the past weeks, but i rarly do cause i have to get up for work at 5:30am mon-friday. and it also goes "the speeds that he is doing" saying im hooning down the street heaps fast!, i know this is word against word here, but i swear to god (or anything ya want), that i have never sped down my street doing in exces of 50kph which is the posted speed limit ill try and get a scan of the letter if i can grab it off the table ok got a scan of it... now ya can see y im so angry Edit: the ppl who need to know what street it is already know so its blured out now

yeh i wish i could tell them that, but they didnt sign the letter saying who it was from, and its printed out so i wouldnt be able to tell whos hand writing it was (if i was able to, lol).. ive got a feeling its the nww ppl who moved in across the road a few months ago.. they have kids and seem to fit the profile of the letter.. ive never talked to them b4, but i dont intend to go over then and start to talk to them about the letter if it infact wasnt them. and yeh im not fussed about the video as im doing nuthing rong, but its just the fact that they would even do that shocked me, like how grumpy can they get? .. the letter is also writen in a style that implys that its more then just one resident that is pissed off <_<

lol, that i can believe

yeh i thort there where cameras too... ill proberly make a formal complaint about it though.. hopfuly this doesnt happen to other ppl.

hmm, get this.. we got a letter in the mail box today, unsigned, complaining about the noise of my car and the noise of the blow off valve (they called it the wastegate noise though ). the letter is about 2/3 of an A4 page as well.. it was addressed to my mother, not personaly to me, but it calls me stupid and reckless. claiming that i have no common sence at all. also saying im having drags with my friends up and down the street (i live on a dead end street btw). and they are also getting up me about me letting the turbo timer time out (30 seconds max) when i park in the driveway. ok, well firstly the speed limit in the street is 50Ks like most back streets, and is also barly wide enough to go racing down at the best of times with both cars parked on ether side. not to mention i have no other friends that have fast cars to even think of draging. secondly, the blowoff valve on my car is standard, it hasnt been modifyed to be louder at all.. standared turbo with the internal wastegate. so what the hell am i ment to do about that? stupid ppl.. its not a started exhaust oviously, and it sounds like the car is reving alot higher then it actualy is.. my dad kept stalling it for that very reason when he had a drive. as for being reckless and stupid, i do 40ks down my street cause if some1 pulled out ya wouldnt be able to see them in time if ya where doing any faster, and the last thing i want is to run into sumthing and screw my car up that i love so much, or worse still, hit some1. also our street joins onto the main road where there is a school zone, which yet another reason y i dont do more then 40 anyway. as for letting my car cool down after ive been driving it.. they want my to stop doing that.. yeh sure ill do that, if they buy me the new parts when they break from not properly looking after my car.... like i mean com'on! i may get to 40ks faster then most on the way home (wouldnt do that when the car is cold in the morning), but that doesnt mean im reckles, stupid and endagering other ppls lives like they are claiming.. they said if i dont suposedly stop draging and doing all that they complained about, then they are going to get the video camera out and start to video me to try and get "evidence" of me doing sumthing rong.. but how am i ment to stop doing sumthing rong, when im not doing it in the first place? what makes this even piss me off more, is that they didnt even have the guts to sign the letter.. if anything i could at least write a polite letter back explaining a few of these things and tell them that i am also a driver that is concered about kids running out from behind cars and that i do slow down even more then 40 (yes i drive like a granny), and take a big swing around kids or ppl when they are on the edge of the road.. *ranicx exploads with anger and fustration* .. first some1 trys to break into my car, and now this!! i cant believe it!

awww there was quite a large pot hole (well it was more like a open cut mine) on parra road that i almost hit yesterday.. i swear i woulda lost my tire down it, i couldnt even see the bottom.. and yeh parra road is awful. the worst road ive eva been on anywhere.. including over seas in places like romaina singapore (there nice roads there ) and a few others.. dirt roads are actualy alot better then it in some places!, lol
