  1. hrm, sorry ... im not a huge fan of that front bar. it looks like a riced up GTSt. bonnet does well though.... you'll probably remember this car from geoff risbey a while back? same bonnet as yours with stock front bar... these side skirts look awesome too. i believe they are Trust?
  2. i have 5 x 128mb PC133 PC ram chips forsale. one of them is a kingmax chip, the others are nonames which have served me well. $60 each email me: [email protected] (remove the .nospam) cheers, Franky
  3. hrmmmmmmmmm .... you might be onto something there
  4. what an interesting looking movie!!! hahaha.. can you rip it to DIVX so whats #1??? Top Gun?
  5. uninformed? i dont think it takes much knowledge to understand that you hitting something or something hitting you is clearly life threatening. i do understand and can appreciate how leathers can protect you from road rash - i never questioned this. i enjoy a bit of road cycling myself and i have been, and i have hit a motor vehicle before, so i can appreciate any kind of protective clothing even something as little as gloves go a long long way. but that wasn't my point..... my manager has an R1 that he rides to work on everyday and a Gixxer1000 track bike that he takes to EC and Phillip Island, he is a very serious biker who spends alot of the time on the roads. i dont believe he has had a major accident before, that said, another friend was in hospital for months and now has steel pins in his legs - my point is, it only takes 1 hit for it to be a serious one (hence the skydiving analogy) and leathers are not going to protect you from this.
  6. i was over bov's in about 6 months, this was in my wrx... i loved doing "drive-bys" - i think it comes with having the boxer burble but now when i see or get done i just think its the biggest wank. used to always look for open windows and see if i could give the passenger or driver a fright this is going back YEARS though now
  7. okay, my comments were fairly general and to a degree you're spot on. i would say though, the combination of ferrari and MS is a winning one.
  8. im sure it wasnt called "death race 2000" ???? its quite newish, has that blonde chick in the samsung ad in it........hahaha........has a scene where the "young gun" has a fight with the current driving champ over a chick and they race the indy cars through the streets of san francisco or wherever it was filmed hahaha
  9. leathers on a motorbike is as useful as a helmet on a skydiver. im sure you get my point.
  10. yup ... performance costs money!!! i am averaging 13 to 13.5l/100km ~200rwkw, 75% inner city driving.
  11. yup, i know exactly where you go...do you work at EDS? you could try coming out to parra rd earlier, say at great north road or the road that leads onto croydon rd (one street over going west on parra rd)? then go down croydon rd, right onto Queen St, past burwood girls high to the back of westfields...that would be all against traffic too ...
  12. i've always wondered if cutting through the backroads to avoid parra road is quicker than just staying on it.... i got onto parra rd, then said f&*$ it, cut through the back roads, got held up on burwood road then popped back onto parra rd at strathfield...dunno if it was quicker though :confused:
  13. and might i add, shannon noll's rendition of the national anthem was f$^%&*# attrocious. i've heard better cats howl than that.
  14. doh! :headshot: who believes what they read on the internet anyway!!!
  15. alot of good any amount of protective gear is gonna do you if a bloody van hits you... on the other hand, id love a bike - but im too accident prone.
  16. hahah faulty tacho....that could be errr.....dangerous! :bond:
  17. monkey man ken am*&^% does fairly well in his 4 foor ER34 skyline......but i would agree that the lighter car would probably be more fun/easy. why would you want to drift anyway? its the slow way around a corner!!! :ufo:
  18. i would like to see how schumacher goes around wakefield in my skyline.
  19. put schumacher in a jaguar and he's nothing. ferrari makes the driver. on the other hand, put webber in a ferrari and i dont think he'd go aswell as schuey.
  20. so montoya reminds you of that guy sylvester stallone played in that race car movie where he comes out of retirement? hahaha. geez they talk webber up. i'll eat my shorts the day he becomes world f1 champion.
  21. fixed....
