he did a good job of messing his mags up when he hit that gutter. turned a 5 spoke mag into a 4 point giant ninja star/paper weight.

not really true. otherwise i couldn't get to work from home without j-walking about 15 times, as only the main street and traffic lights have crossings.

a pushbike is classed as a vehicle. they are allowed to ride on the road, in the middle of the road. if you are at an intersection and 1 is riding along the road you are pulling onto, you have to give way to them just as you would a car. they are not allowed to ride across pedestrian crossings. some councils don't allow them to ride on the foot path. as for pedestians. sure this guy sounded like a tool, but the law is that if you turn a corner and there is a pedestrian already crossing the street you must give way. last week in town an elderly man was knocked off his electric scooter (4 wheeled thing) while crossing the highway. he was crossing at a set of lights, and had the green walk light, and a car came round the corner and hit him.

anyone on here know alex from pomona? (nismo boy he was out that night that my mate hit the pole) he drives.... drove a green ED falcon. this morning he was on his way to work and decided to do a skid out the front of his work. he was coming round a corner and did something to get it sideway, and then got all crossed up and ended up hitting a council bin, 2 sign posts and an awning of the take-away shop opposite his work.

the hks bov you won't be able to get a mod plate for, and you can get booked for it unless you have it plumbed back. when you get the seat you will need a mod plate. just ring either a cop shop, or qld transport and ask them where somewhere is that does mod plates in your area.

yes gympie does have a skidpan, but those videos sucked. we have had much better drivers there than that.

^^ true.

if you did go to the company and didn't like the response i'd contact accurent affairs or something like that and get it on tv. then the whole company would sufffer.

poor you. no, the imbreeds are out at imbil. gympie is just full of dole bludging bums.

well then i'm going to complain to my local paper, and find out who the police officer they were interviewing before xmas who said that motorist better watch out because it was coming into effect. actually, my father-in-laws's boss's wife is the secretary of the head cop in town, i will ask her.

i would've video taped it on my phone and gone to the company (in a different car if possible) and damanded to see the owner and showed him the video, and said i was taking the matter to the police, to get the guy into real shit at work.

you do realise that in a later post he said he was only joking? i realise that, and i would be pissed off too, but there are people on here that get pissed off for getting booked for breaking the law, and act as if they weren't doing anything wrong.

could be the timing belt/chain rattling. or it could be that the lifters are worn. or starter motor.

it also depends on where you get it done. i know the local nissan dealership charges $95 an hour labour, but where my mate works only charges $45, so if it was a 4 hour job you are looking at $200 difference straight away.

the core of the radiator could be half full of crap. you could take it to a radiator place and get them to take the core apart and properly flush it out. also make sure the radiator is getting as much airflow as possible. or it could be that the clutch fan is dead.

i was quoted about $700 (off the top of the guys head, he didn't look it up) for the full service. that was drive in, drive out, me not supplying anything.

you can be booked for trimming the front bar and reinforcement bar to fit the cooler in. you generally have to trim the reinforcement bar as it sits across the front of the cooler.

a bigger afm doesn't really help if you are running out of maps.

it would be the aac valve. it needs clean. while you are doing it clean the idle screw.

to try and stay on track of what people have said, p platers have 4 points, which if you lose 1 point you get it back 12 months from when you lose it. people with their opens have 12 points, and you have your points renewed 3 years after you lose them. if you have your opens and lose all your points and decide to hand your licence in for the given period rather than go on a good behaviour bond, when you get your licence back you go onto your p's for 12 months before you get your opens back. my mate is currently taking this route, but it was a pain as he had his motorbike opens as well, and since they are on the same licence he couldn't ride his motorbike as it was above the restricted engine size of p platers. now if you get caught speeding 20kmh or more over the limit then you don't really have anything to bitch about. you must have been consciously doing that speed. fair enough you may feel cheated if you have just come into a 60kmh zone from a 80kmh zone you would think they would give a few meters to let you slow down, but the law does say that you are supposed to have slowed down to that speed before you enter that speed zone. double points/double fines do exist. it isn't just public holidays, it is only over certain periods, like xmas and easter, when most people have holidays. i know people that have been booked during this time and recieved the bigger fines. as for the extra demerit points lost if you get caught speeding twice in 12 months, i think the way they are doing it is a bit crap. it should only be 1 or 2 extra points. now i don't have a perfect driving record. i have been booked twice, once for speeding 82 in a 60 zone (back when 15-30kmh over was only 3 points) to get home before a hail storm hit. the other time was for undue noise (i accidently chirped the wheels slightly taking off from a set of lights). had i known i was going to get done i would've atleast tried to make it worth while. but i know that if i speed and get caught there is no point getting pissed off at the cop, or anyone else. i broke the law. i knew i was breaking the law and i still did it, so i have no-one to blame but myself.

rich and retard isn't just at 5v on the afm. you can get it at 3v. when i got it it hit hard at about 3000rpm when it had just come on boost, but if i backed the boost down less than 1 psi it would rev all the way to 7000rpm without hitting it. it is caused by the ecu running out of mapping for that amount of air at that rev range. i would only ever get it at low rpm where the car would die for a split second then it would come back to life, light the tyres up and pull as hard as normal up to redline.

hey! there are gympie members on here! LOL

just go to autobarn or repco, or a battery place.

i like, like stuff, you know. do you like stuff? i constantly hear teenie-bopper girls walk past the front of the shop saying the same dialogue, with different filling. it generally consists of the following- then i was like..... then he/she was like..... then i was like.... etc.
