  1. haha, sure thing, but if anyone asks, you dont know me. oh wait, you dont, score! yeah, it does sound a bit sus, but i aint fussed. minimum hours, $2/hour more than what im earning at kmart, another $2/hour after 3 months, more money everytime i learn to deal a new game, actual penalty rates, cheap drinks. kicks the shit out of kmart.
  2. *shrug* something to do with them taking care of getting my gaming licence for me.
  3. start work at the casino next week! *dances* but, 160 unpaid training hours ftl
  4. heh, there seems to be many a sau member out this way, and if all goes well, i will soon be rolling in my own 'line. anyways, spotted a silver 32 4 door with black wheels at the hungry's in munno about 30 minutes ago (~8:15)
  5. you bastard. i want that! lol, the usual suspects are taking up all my time; Final Fantasy VII on the good ol PS1 (up to countless thousands of hours in that game over the years... a mispent youth some would say) Final Fantasy IX once again on the good ol PS1. Parasite Eve I... I'll finish it all eventually, lol. and Final Fantasy X-2.. the only FF game (aside from XII) that i havent finished yet.
  6. yeah, im not too far from there. im just up uley near the highschool.
  7. looks awesome man seen it around a few times, must bug you for a ride one day
  8. lol, what a twit. way to get pwnt.
  9. how long is a piece of string? id take a guess and say between 5 and 700?
  10. spotted a white stagea with nismo wheels on anderson walk (i think, im friggin useless with street names) cruising towards munno para shops at about 7:00. looks awesome, makes me want a stagea, lol.
  11. very nice.... car aint bad either.
  12. i do believe my time over clipsal is going to be spent between full time training for the new job and weekend work at the old job... not cool... next year though.
  13. yeah, its a shame about that. the guy in the 34 will have to live with that, hopefully itll wisen 'em up.
  14. thats why some XR6T's are making upwards of 700kw on stock internals? its all in tuning, like any engine, you bodge the tuning and the engine will 'grenade'. you get the tuning right and itll run sweet day in and day out. how many RB's do you think got blown up in their early days when people were still trying to get te tuning right?
  15. and rather deserved if the driver was being a f**kwit.
  16. yesterday spotted a red 34 GTT with a chick driving near elizabeth (heading north) at about 2:30 i think it was. also spotted a white stagea with 18/19 inch nismo wheels parked at munno para at about 6:30. and today spotted a black 34 GTT on north terrace at 12:30 also a silver 32 GTR crusing down main north near mitre ten at 4:30-5.
  17. care to explain that one?
  18. seen that around a few times aswell matty, fairly sure its a GTR.
  19. anymore pics of it not wrecked?
  20. What do you get when you bolt a supercharged 1,000bhp engine, hitherto found under the bonnet of a four-wheel-drive monster truck, into a home-made motorbike chassis? Most people would probably say “trouble” or possibly “a ride in an ambulance”. But for engineer Nick Argyle, it seemed the obvious thing to do when tinkering with some bits in his garage one day. Argyle had built his own monster truck some years previously before selling the chassis but keeping the whopping 8.2-litre Mopar V8 engine. Lacking the space to build another truck, he decided that the ideal home for the supercharged powerplant would be a two-wheeler. Called the Rapom V8, the result is the most powerful road legal motorbike in Britain, with between 1,000 and 1,200bhp depending on the boost from the Littlefield supercharger. That makes the Bugatti Veyron, the fastest car in the world with 987bhp, look rather tame. And if you thought your neighbour’s SUV was a gas-guzzler, the Rapom consumes a gallon of pure alcohol ever four miles. Fortunately Argyle only uses it for the 10-mile trip to his local dragstrip in the Cotswolds and then only in the daytime as the bike lacks headlights. The frame, constructed from massive, 3cm thick steel tubing, is extra long to prevent the bike flipping over under hard acceleration and as it tips the scales at 1,000lb, a reverse gear is needed for manoeuvring. With such a surfeit of power, just two forward gears are needed in the API racing transmission. Stopping power provided by racing brakes gripped by six-piston callipers. didnt know where this was appropriate, mods feel free to move it if need be
  21. who cares. its a perfect engine for what the cars intended. its torquey, its responsive, and its powerful.
  22. its making 354 kw at 8 psi. im sorry, but it really is a superior engine package. it produces cubic shitloads more torque, brings on the power earlier, and makes more power easier than a 26 would. *puts flame suit on*
  23. find 3 hours mate, its well worth the read.
  24. yeah, same, spent the better part of 3 hours reading through it. couldnt take my eyes off for the screen for a lot of it. incredible story, for someone who very nearly lost her life (3 TIMES!!!) to this, teaching herself to walk again, writing her own book... and the NR community, nothing but respect for them after reading that, so many people throwing themselves behind someone they didnt even know. great stuff.
