  1. 89% of people 100% support... AWESOME!
  2. The wreckers get called to take it on Monday, so get in quick!
  3. You might need to read your road rules again but under 10 over is only one point. Secondly read the insurance thread, some people posted findings about speeding fines affecting premiums etc... Ps, the government gets no extra money off insurance companies then if you spend your money at a fish and chip shop...
  4. I've bought cars at some steal prices and never had an issue with them not using it as the value.
  5. The funny thing is, three years ago when they were everywhere no one cared, now that they've stopped using them and want to bring them back, it's a huge shame? And it will also free up police resources to do other jobs, which everyone keeps screaming the police should be doing... Yet now you're all crying that the police will be able to free up resources... And I think this will do good, I hope they put plenty of these out, I spend nearly every minute of the time I drive wishing there was a copper around... People are always speeding past me 10 and 20 kays over. I'm sick of these speeding morons!
  6. Mobile speed cameras were still in use in Wollongong up until around 3 years ago. If you had your licence for 10 years, and drove the same way back then as you do now, and didn't get busted, you won't be getting busted all the time. The cameras sit in a huge f**k off car like a ford Station wagon normally. And it's usually a small blue sign located around 10 metres after the car saying "You've been checked" Seriously, it's not going to affect peoples behaviours so much, people are already moronic enough to sit 10 to 20 under the limit everywhere. Why will this change them now? Oh and after 6 months of people not getting busted they'll go back to speeding anyway.
  7. GIO were palming it over to Just Cars for the Imports, and Shannons for the classics/veterans. To renew with "GIO" was going to cost me $3600, to then be palmed to JC. JC I think I'm on $1400 atm. Shannons wanted $4400... I would have loved to stay with GIO, but they shut up the custom car division.
  8. I wants it Lizzeh! Bump for an awesome car.
  9. And in my experience are a bunch of *Can't be said here* I had insurance with them, they were the only place to go near a 19YO in a relatively stock R33. Insured at $14 500, they want 3K a year. and in the region of that again if I claimed, no parking on the street (Or within 500metres of the house) etc etc etc, Really crappy conditions. The year later, I had an even better NCB, guess what, they now wanted $3 600 a year, dropped "agreed" value to $12 000, and put the excess up a couple of hundred also, and then stated that within 1000KM of my house I was not insured when parking over night etc) Left them, went to GIO, they were awesome, insured for $23K, from memory $1800 a year, and pretty affordable excess, then they stopped doing it moved to JC. No issues so far, I just made my excess high to get a $1400 a year premium. And Terry: That double in premium was what I was quoted, then again, it seems to be if you change operators on the phone your premium can shift a few hundred! And his house was basically the start of a really dodgy neighbourhood, I live the 2KM away on the "good" side. Oh and when I started with Famous, and GIO I had a perfect driving record and insurance record.
  10. Do some reading on how much land mass is required to support australias demand for ethanol if we used e85 etc as our main fuel. Think about how little we use already and how much waste crop it is costing to produce...
  11. You "sell" it to me and I'll "sell" it back for under $1000...
  12. See what fresh blood on the commitee does? We get everyone involved!
  13. Is it manual? Can you message me details?
  14. Snap... What turbo are you running? I wants your ATR43! Going to put my turbo up for sale soon, so if you want it, mani and dump etc lemme know.
  15. Bring all your tools, and any spare parts you may have. Bring spare coolant, oil, brake fluid, power steering fluid etc. You will much rather have it, and not need it, then need it, and not have it...
  16. I left skid marks all over my front road with mine... and all ibwas doing was idling!!! Rb30 power Andrew!
  17. Isn't it funny, per capita Australia is actually fatter then America. And how about this for weight loss, they just ban fuel for cars altogether. That way we can all catch public transport, walk or ride bikes. Helping the environment and fat people... (Yes, that was sarcasm) Right... So we're going to double the cost of living now as well? God you people are smart...
  18. Your location will also play a part in insurance. Crazily, for me to insure my car at my mates place who lived less then 2KM from me, nearly doubled the price of insurance... With ONLY that change... That'swhat I call crazy!
  19. What's one of those worth? Let me know when and how much.
  20. Where from, and how much? I need/want one... NOW!
  21. It has already been proven, that Australia does not have the usable land space to allow Ethanol to become a highly used replacement fuel. America did a big swap to supporting farmers for growing crops purely for creation of Ethanol... They started to have food supply issues...
  22. Never had issues with Caltex 98. In fact it's all I run. Personally I used to find Shell had a placebo of more grunt, but less economy (Which after reading, was found to be because Shell runs more cleaning agents then Caltex, hence less fuel to burn) Caltex gave better economy then Shell, but ever so slightly less top end punch (Placebo again) but the car sounded like it idled smoother. BP I've only ever run once as I got the worlds worst batch of fuel that caused it to kick and buck and belch flames. Personally, I swap between Caltex and Shell without a second thought, I mainly stick to Caltex as it's cheaper for me.
  23. YAY!!! Oh and Shell, my R33 just got put in my garage, so the brakes and harness etc will all be stripped out this week for the next Work'n Weekend!
  24. Sounds like a good weekend. Might just have to lock in heading away on it... (Now how do I tell the missus... :S)
