i call bullshit my 300c srt 8 comes with stock 20 inch rims... like to this the asshole cop u had give me a sticker for that... id tell him where to shove it. Having said that, the legality of rims is based on what it came with from factory... u can only go up so many inches and so much more wider then stock... so 19's can be illegal on some cars, while not on others. =)

one and the same. personal taste. this is a pointless thread.

parking on northbridge streets = safe? I dont think so! I rather pay a few dollars and park in secure area...

Thats good news and good to know.. Countless times ive seen cars cut off trucks and the trucks slamming on the brakes.

is it just me or does that exhaust tip look super small?

just another word of advice if the brake pads came with shims, use them i change to green stuff which came with there own shims. I used the factory ones first, and they were quite noisey so i change to the ones that they gave me, and they have made no noise since =)

well with no front mount... she has to put something there otherwise its just gonna be a big hole. So mesh is the next best thing.

That can be true in some cases. Despite the fact that radar detectors are 100% legal in W.A.... However, the whistler pro 78 comes with quick release. Takes half a second to take it down and into the glove box.

It should... im going to try it sometime this week. im running whistler pro 78 radar detector.

what performance do u get from stretching tyres?

hahahaha i meant severly hurt... like brain damage or even a paralysed. that would be worse... (imo) then being dead.

You got it in one. well done

1. They may not of crossed it yet 2. We are talking about the avg driver, their natural reaction is to go a bit faster to make sure they get across in time. However, if the speed camera and red light camera is there, they will see amber, and hit the brakes. (Again the avg driver), they wont even think about is it safe to stop or not. Which is what the amber light is all about. "Stop if safe to do so"

nope it wont,,, thats exactly my point.. however, the new static speed camera will if they decide, which is most likely, to go a little bit faster. So instead of them looking behind them, seeing the semi, deciding to go a little bit faster to get across the amber light... which really is the smartest thing to do, rather then have a semi locking its brakes up behind you. (yes ive seen it many times before). They will realise the speed camera will go off, and they will slam the brakes. A semi up the ass of ur car... will do the following: 1. Smash the rear end of ur car to bits... most likely write off. 2. Give u severe whiplash and who knows what other neck problems 3. push you INTO the intersection, then who knows whats going to happen. You may say now, o thats ok... it wont be their fault. The insurance will cover it. Insurance is no good if you dead, or worse, severely hurt and have to suffer the rest of your life. I have nothing against static cameras, infact i prefer them to mobile ones and they are probably more effecient and effective when palced in the correct spots. However, placing them at traffic lights, which already have red light cameras seems to me, they just want more money. The majority of people wont go through a red light if they know a red light camera is there.

You think the average driver is capable of doing so? They will cruise along at 60kmh... suddenly they see it turn yellow... take them a few seconds to react to it. Then they realise o shit, theres a speed/red light camrea there. Slam their brakes to stop..... = accidents. Espeically if its 1. Wet. 2. Big semi behind them. 3. Even worse combination of the two above. Yes the law is important... im not saying it isnt... but the average skill of driver in W.A, as most of us can agree, is fairly low.

yeah agreed once people know its there if they see a yellow they will for sure slam the brakes.

yeah i read about it too.. thats the only one in perth atm.. they are trialling it. Its both red light cam and speed camera. hope you werent going too fast...

i really need to get off my L's already.

what kind of fuel do you pump in the gtr? Bp 98? Would that be available way out in the country?

as far as im concered.. the lower the cold weight the better.... u want thin oil at start up = fast lubrication of the engine and its not like you will trash the car when its cold. Whoever told you its too "thin" doesnt know what they are talking about. btw the difference between 0 and 5 is literally nothing.

Where did i say anywhere i went over 110kmh? I simply said i had a fun spirited drive. Depending how the road (Bends etc) is and other factors such as road condition and time of the day/night... spirited drives do not have to be over 110kmh... or even 100kmh...

o really? thanks for the heads up... if thats the case I was still legal... =) the road was extremely windy and small though... Not to mention trees either side. You would have to be really pushing it hard to get it up and over 110kmh. why dont they just put a 110kmh sign there? or whatever speed that they decide to put up there?

Sif not tell us the story...

whys that lol? whats with people have stretched tyres on their rims? Is it to save money or something? Ive always put the correct tyre on my rim,,, so it help protect the rims from scratches etc.

Yo B1.. sounds like a great idea. make sure u take heaps of pics... =)
