  1. i am an SMTP/POP Load tester.
  2. would have to agree with you there. a 1 horse race is extremely boring to watch (pardon the pun) hrm can't agree with you here jordan was an unbelievably good basketball player but he didnt break all the records. players like wilt chamberlain for instance have better stats than jordan but jordan was far better "entertainment". i believe the F1 will live without schuey as the F1 spectacle is not purely focused on the drivers talent. people come to appreciate not only the racing but the technology, the colour, the sound, the smell and the atmosphere. also, being a motorsport its hard not to think schuey has an unfair advantage over the rest of the drivers because his car is soo much quicker! thus it begs the question "how good is schuey?". how about craig lowndes's move from HRT to FORD? its fair to say that he hasnt dominated aswell as he did when he was over at HRT meaning the HRT car had a slight edge over the rest of the field? so my point is, basketball died (i feel the same way) because they lost someone who made the game come alive - he was also a great role model. with F1, they will always appreciate the other things that make the sport entertaining.
  3. its as good as gold mate!
  4. okay thats fair enough
  5. guilty, yeah thats fine, would be theives look at it and think mehhhh stands out too much gizmo, no offence but coming from the central coast you sound so versed with sydney car parks...your knowledge of these vulnerable car parks stems from...???
  6. i've parked my car at macquarie centre on more than a few occassions - no dramas here... infact, yellow is a good colour in many ways :lol: it attracts attention and thus deters would-be theives =)
  7. what he said...
  8. man, you vic's have all the fun! great shots! looks like it was a great day!!!
  9. i saw a black 360 modena as one of the wedding cars on the w/e, fark that was hot...
  10. SHEEEEEEEEEEET..... my personal assistant is going. can't believe they double booked me! oh shit thats me. i vote 1 - postpone.
  11. that LM GTR is forsale too i hear...
  12. i can do it for 4k.
  13. ... just to clarify, the power level when i ran 13.8s was not at 199rwkw it was more like 187rwkw...and i have an R34 which is also slightly heavier than a R33.
  14. just hope GTR's have enough torque otherwise the jetski would be pulling the R into the water!!! anyone remember that US link of the Corvette being pulling into the water???
  15. sorry guys, i can remove post if you like - im not a regular thread hijaker, i promise
  16. black smoke out the back, allbeit not pretty, is okay. its just your factory ecu overfueling because its gone off the map? i'll give you a hint - don't buy a MY99 the theory is, the fuel pump from the 98 is the same as the 99 whilst the injectors went from 380cc to 440cc. Not surprisingly the 00 had the same 440cc injectors but had a different fuel pump....i would think slightly larger. it is thus theorised, the fuel pump wasnt quite big enough for the larger injectors of the 99 and hence the more cases of ring lan failures at higher boost levels in MY99 GC8's... cylinder #2 also sits on the end of the fuel rail hence another reason why this cylinder is prone to failure due to fuel starvation... the aps car, i actually tend to think it was either a 97 or 98??? the non-forester dash is coming to mind for some strange reason so it may have been a 97??? my memory eludes me it was damn quick thats for sure though and it was running stock turbo ... to your boost issues, maybe get an electronic boost controller? i know i had slight bit of overboost but thats the way i tuned my avcr as for the td05...yup! couldnt agree more. best $300 (second hand) i have spent on a car
  17. didn't the APS GC8 WRX run like 20+ psi in their car? the thing flew and it had a stock turbo...i wouldnt say its impossible at all. i personally had my 98 wrx, allbeit with a 1994 td05 turbo, at 1.35bar with only front mount and exhaust doing 180kw at all four wheels. and its hit 1.4bar too.
  18. yes there is
  19. great link duncan.... no mitsu evo's either good news is ferrari 355's can be done o_0
  20. unique autosport have a modified r33 gtr in my favourite r33 colour - white.
  21. dean @ upimports in melbourne upimports.com.au
  22. i can do avcr tuning - guaranteed to come on stonger, earlier =) the only issue i have with the avcr is it doesnt fit into a factory DIN. so i leave it in the glovebox.
  23. why be sorry? nice choice... i heard c&v's xr6t pulled a 10.9s with a APS phase 3 kit and slicks at drag combat today?
  24. dude, just a word of warning dont go rushing shit with the computer just for drag combat otherwise the car might be in the workshop for another long stint!
  25. id get the tommy makinen and skip right past the 33 gtr to the 34 gtr in the future...well thats my plan anyways evo6 gsr complied can be had for low 30's these days. id love a tommy makinen, but they are still selling in japan at around 2.2 to 2.5million yen...i've seen gsr's at around 1.65mill yen.
