  1. oh. sif pay that much for a bolt in mang. you might as well get an exhaust place to knock you up one in chromolly. bolt ins aren't CAMS approved anyways, so just freeball it cos you don't have any regulations to comply with.
  2. Just making sure you know that CAMS approved half cages are rear half, not front half. http://www.camsmanual.com.au/pdf/10_gen_re...dule_j_q210.pdf
  3. kris, stop being a douche. if people don't want personal details, that you were privy to on account of being a mate, shared with the general public, then you should just shut the fuck up about it.
  4. wtf india? wtf?
  5. well looks like you just left sydney before the weather there got depressing. I'll be in syd this weekend.
  6. Who's. Your. Daddy? All set and ready to go. Now just need to get the wheels from japan to oz, bust em apart and then get the outers machined up.
  7. 8.5 and 9.5. His were custom ordered 5x100 at the right offset etc. There's no diff between the 2 door and 4 door as far as fitment goes. I plan on rolling that lip out as well, for extra width, so I should be able to run 9.5" in the front and 10.5" at the back with a little poke, or 9 and 10 with no poke. personally I like poke over pulled fenders, just finishes the transition.
  8. Ugh, just got a quote to plate 144 nuts in black... $100 shit just keeps adding up.
  9. FFS... quick search in japanese just came up with this dude in Japan: FFFFUUUU... 2nd in the world to rock meisters on a golf just doesn't sound as catchy
  10. aren't you an engineer? get on it.
  11. ... or you could probe the ECU's input/output signals and just make it do what the ECU does via emulation. your car's ECU is the PC equivalent of a 386. ARM processors can do 1000 times the calculations that your ECU can do in the same time.
  12. esp when the n00b decides to half arse it and chop it off. next time i'll just ban em. this playing nice and being helpful shit's overrated
  13. just another ARM based board.
  14. drove the ceffy again after changing plugs. no improvement. think it's the crank angle sensor playing up.
  15. I only slap strangers.
  16. lol I like the reasoning I gave the woman... me: "I'm buying a 2000 model, economical, sensible car which doesn't attract attention" her: "why?" me: "so I can daily it without getting hassled and not have to worry about maintaining it as much" her: "and what mods are you doin to it?" me: "epic stance, gangster fitment, paint, cosmetics, pod, exhaust, rom, stereo" her: "so basically taking away all the economy, drive-ability, sensibility and reliability? and it's gonna get noticed everywhere it goes?" me: "yes" her: *facepalm*
  17. but I want lumberjack plaid mang! plaaaaaaaid!
  18. yahuh. lol don't hate. hatin's not pretty. yup. once I'm done with the dub it's gonna look like I beat that bitch on the regular.Wheels should cost about $1300 landed. New outer barrels should cost about $250 a pop. $100 to have em taken apart. $200 to have em powdercoated and anodised. $100 to reassemble. All up $2700 for a set of wheels that are perfect fitment and gangstalicious. Just ordered suspension for $4000ish for both the 32 and the golf too. $4700 all up in just stance mods. Fucking car only cost $5800. Then there's the boser hood plate, Hella HID lights, Hella blacked out tails, debadged grille and paint. Haven't even figured out what all that will cost.... plus I haven't even touched the interior.
  19. just emailed the seller with a lowball amount lets hope he's desperate enough for cash moneh that he sells it to me cheap. Otherwise, gonna have to bid on the fuckers (FFFUUU)
  20. Just noticed that the Audi is riding on some dirty big hub adapters. Weak. exactly. as long as the inner wheel barrel and the centre fit the golf, then I can sort the rest out later. Also allows me to get max width, epic dish and custom offset all in one hit, not to mention the ability to paint/anodize in any colour combo I want. Might pull em apart and send em up to Craved in Syd.
  21. First step is to buy the fail fitment 5x100 PCD S1's. Will sort the rest out later.
  22. It's a tamper resistant TORX screw, or a "Torx TR", most hardware shops should sell screwdrivers or socket bits to suit. Regular Torx screwdrivers don't have a hole in the middle, so make sure you get the tamper resistant variety. edit: you want one of the top row of this: its $40something from kinchrome, or you can get the cheaper variety from bunnings for $10 usually.
  23. yeah, it'd look a little pov to ask for donations to keep the website goin. on a free website sure, but it's a business website. the free info is a value added service. All this info has been available at our fingertips for a few years, but never in the same spot, also not so easily accessible to the public. Hopefully this new version cuts down the number of minor emails the boys get daily like "can I import a 4 door R33 GTS4?" Potential clients can take the time to inform themselves, and then just email the boys with "I know I can import these models, I'm after one with these features, what can you show me?" the reason I asked about speeds is because I want to give Craig some feedback on caching search results and rendered pages to speed up repeat requests.
  24. ohhh ok, I'm talking about something completely different then. sorry.
