  1. I think some of the issues people might be having also with their clutches. More so the top end ones (not just the JB ones) where they SHOULD work. I think could be their installation, and transport prior to install. When I picked mine up from Jim he made sure I had a good solid box to transport it in so it wouldnt get damaged in the car, he wanted to know the mechanic putting it in etc. I would assume other clutches would appreciate the same treatment. Not knowing how some of these off the shelf items are packaged or transported, but potentially they are getting damaged slighting in transport. When in such high power/stressful applications that slight damage is more apparent and the clutch fails or doesnt perform how it should. Either way I'm very happy with my clutch, and more so the service that was provided.
  2. There are also little fake mice ones of these. I want to get one of those, good fun tearing around the vinyl with one and making the cats crash in to stuff. Also would be a barrel of laughs at the office!
  3. Sorry yeah thats it. Its something stupid. Like lights, wing mirrors, front and rear windscreens. And front door windows. But not the rears. But you have your bucket of water anyway...
  4. Dude, just pull the fuse. That or if your handy or keen put a switch in. Thats all we have done with the work cars.
  5. Dont quote me. But I think its just buckets, filled directly from the tap. Technically you cant even use a high pressure cleaner with its sucker hose in the bucket. Double check it tho, as that might have been level 4. And before anyone complains toowoombas level 5 its illegal to lay new turf. Our level 5 is near on pointless.
  6. Well my small bit of imput. I get 100kms/10L every week, week in week out, in my cefiro (rb20det). So its a bit heavier, I drive with my headlights on a lot of the time, in traffic. A/C on part of the time too. I drive it fairly responsibly, but I dont stay off boost all the time. Can even do a bit of a light mountain drive and I will still get about those figures. Mods are just filter, exaust, 12psi, R34 sidemount, and a Dr Drift chip. That said, if I head out to the track, it dissappears VERY quickly.
  7. Im with shannons. I actually found their policy much better than justcars. Im 23 (was 22 when I took out the cover last year with them) I've got a moderatly modded cefiro. Parked in a carport in an alright neighbourhood. So the car is covered for $15k, premium is $1200. They did put me on rating 1 tho after I pleaded with them (Im a defensive driving instructor). My exess is $900, for non listed drivers its $2k or something.
  8. Only if I can wash my car like I do at home...
  9. LoL, I gotta ask dude, what else did you have in the car other than jerry cans full of fuel!? I mean they arent the most spacious of cars to start with, put all that in there... HAHA!
  10. Yeah, thats what I do. Normally after 9pm its starting to get quiet. BTW, I can do mine for $3. $1 rinse car, $1 fill bucket, $1 rinse car. We too have tanks now tho, 9000L worth all full. Just no pump to get the water out of them
  11. You know you've made it when you get the opening roll in a youtube video!!! BTW, the water was FREEZING!!!
  12. They are expensive for what they are, like your not buying new, but glass as an option, come on. They are american. You could get like an older lux or something for that money. Would probably be a lot more pratical too.
  13. Well was $99 for early bird tickets. Not sure if they are still about. Its at riverstage/botanical gardens, and on the 23rd of Feb. I went last year (which was the first year in qld) and it was pretty good. Awesome line up last year too.
  14. Yeah dude, thats not a trip Id like to do in anything else but a diesel cruiser with the big long range tanks. Like it would be an awesome trip to do, my Dads best mate has done it a few times. But you wouldnt do it in performace car. Its not a place you want to get stuck. Remember wolf creek?
  15. OT but have you been to the airport lately???!!!
  16. I still say they are going to sell like hotcakes. Also I think it looks good. Its just peoples perception of what a 'wrx' should look like. Anyway it an impreza, not a wrx, the wrx is the 'trim level' for want of a better word. So go look at what your typical impreza driver is. I can tell you now its not your typical wrx driver, they will sell more base models than they will the top spec, as thats just the way it goes. This follows market trends and what people want, if you had board members breathing down your neck, what would you be doing? Go for something against market trends and hope it pulls off? All that said I have heard they are looking at bringing out a sedan at some point, because remember the foresters have been based off the impreza so they need to do something there.
  17. One of my mates was a 2nd year sparky taking home over $1100 a week... Only did 10hours over time a week... So the money is there for apprentices. But his boss was obviously on a squllion. Either way, if your not fully qual you wont get the money, especially if your no long an apprentice.
  18.

  19. I'm booked in for both
  20. So whos going to soundwave festival this year!? Awesome lineup, I would personally say better than BDO by a long shot atm.
  21. Ahh, I think what they were saying in the story is the fancy pants 430 (at 1/3 price) is almost equal to the enzo (as the enzo still has A/C radio etc). I dont think a GTR was mentioned at all. That said the GTR wont have a 5year + waiting list on it, because its a nissan...
  22. Should have done him for assult... HAW HAW HAW! But the real hoax is Shatters!
  23. Saw some dude down at grandplaza pulling out of the carwash thingo. Had sau sticker/s.
  24. But surely they all make a bit on the side with bribes etc? (yes, stereotype, most cops are good cops)
  25. He's a cop man. What do you expect.
