  1. Bling_bling, lay it on us. Project plans are good because people can point out errors or issues for you, or you can give people good ideas for their own projects.
  2. When did you wave to me?
  3. Er, no. Sciby is Sciby. (Scott, Sciby, Thor, Angry Viking, I seem to have many names) We don't mind being called Spankers... that's the whole ethos behind Garage Spank: we're just a bunch of tools who like cars and drinking and taking the piss out of ourselves. As for past events, I'm totally not in a position to comment, so I won't.
  4. Hi Mrs. K, yes, you're more than welcome in here... anyone is... it's not like secret club, and it's not Spank HQ or anything. (The below is not aimed at you, Belinda, it's just a general rant of mine about the current "social" situation) Friendships change between people, and whatever's happene between Kaos and Squizz, well, that's between those two. As for the rest of us, there seems to be this confusion that "Spank" people (or Spankers, if you prefer) hate "kaos" people. We don't hate them. We get annoyed at stupid comments that get made, that are incorrect, uninformed or just plain lies, and I personally am very disappointed in the attitude of certain people who have turned their backs for unknown reasons and started fabricating stories. We're not bad people. We don't hate you all. We don't hate your cars. CyberPrelude, I want to rub myself up against your Prelude, although I think it could do with a bit more grunt, but still. It's horn. See? Finally, for all the extra people who feel the need to rant on and tell us all to be friends, there are certain past histories between people that are no business of anyones apart from the parties involved, so don't ask, but it shapes relationships into the way they are. Not all people get along all the time. That's just the way life is. You can't change it by demanding it and trashtalking and shitstirring don't help the situation, at all. This goes for Kaos and Spankers. My personal attitude is that I have nothing against Kaos as a whole, and any personal issues I have with individual people are MY issues. *I* will deal with them, if I so choose to. And no, I don't wish to talk about them, and no, those comments are not some thinly veiled stab at anyone, so please don't flow me with paranoid "What ahve you got against me, man?" comments. Anyway, the pielady just turned up, have fun y'all.
  5. Ditto.
  6. Well... unh... *scratches head*... maybe they put something in my water.
  7. Well, think about it this way... on a stockish Skyline, power peaks at about 6,000rpm, then starts dropping off... if you increased redline, it's still going to drop in that new area... best thing to do, shortly after you hit peak power, change gears, get back into that meaty power/torque area and pass the guy.
  8. Sarcasm dude, it's sarcasm. I thought all of the whole "Us vs Them" thing had calmed down and we all agreed to disagree and stop the feudin' an' a'fussin', but it seems to be starting up again. Wake me when it's over.
  9. *gasp* If we're not careful, they might wanna rumble! *rolls eyes* 1 car or 4, it doesn't matter.
  10. There's no point in doing so if you're making most of your power before your current redline. You won't make anymore power, you'll just shorten the life of the engine.
  11. Jay is away on holidays and probably won't be back in time.
  12. What? No need to be nervous. Just get out there, enjoy the first few runs, get used to it, expect to **** something up and then fine tune your technique over time.
  13. It should be fine, but it's a psychological trick. I give myself a very realistic target, then beat it, then I'm giddy for the rest of the day.
  14. no cruise for me, mum's b'day, but I'm taking her for a drive to the beach, so will probably see y'all and wave and beep and give the finger, etc. Might be a 25 manifold sitting around spare soon... give it a couple of months.
  15. I'll just be happy if I break 14.
  16. If you're worried about your car, go get a dyno run done. That will show you if you're not making full power, or if there's any problems with the way it's making the power. Should cost between 60-100 bucks. Stock, you should make between 140-150rwkw or 180-200rwhp. I've got a full exhaust, podfilter, nothing else, and I got 149.2rwkw on the last run. (.2 is important)
  17. What's wrong with the 3L scene, Mr. Curran? Huh huh? Ooooh, you'll keep, sunshine. You'll keep.
  18. Rick: You've probably just got better credit than the rest of us.
  19. Besides, you earn more than me, Rick.
  20. Not really... paying off credit card at the moment.
  21. No, just got drunk. Didn't even set out to. Just a few quiet drinks, and then Digsy's gf gave me an Illusion and things went blurry.
  22. *spaff* I'm far too drunk. Shouldn't have driven home. Felt totally sober. Walk in back door, bang, drunk again.
  23. Jish, webcam is gone, selling it. Rather have money than put my picture on the web all the time.
  24. And you're the better for it. Someone go get me some ice cream. Choc chip cookie dough, ta.
  25. Working.
