I go away for a week and the world goes mad!!!

1. What size of tyre do you mainly need? D) 17" 2. What do you mainly use your tyres for? B) Daily driving 3. What is the main reason that you buy your tyres from your supplier (New or Used)? Example: Cost? Service? Cost mostly. 4. Would your driving style change if the cost of tyres was dramatically dropped? No, I already buy the top end tyre, I know how my car is set up and drive accordingly. 5. What would you consider a fair price for a decent used set of 2 tyres? (Example: Bridgestone Potenza RE040 with 40% tread or more) I would NEVER buy 2nd hand tyres, especially not with over half the tread missing. 6. Would you be interested a bit extra if I could deliver to your door? Not really, I prefer to get a wheel alinement when I get new tyres, along with balancing etc. - Unless you could do all of that as a mobile service as well. 7. Would you be interested in paying slightly more for same day delivery? No, as my tyres are off the shelf anyway, if I was going to a normal shop I'd have them on the car the same day. Unless as above you can do a fitting and alinement service as well. 8. What is your preferred brand of tyre? Dunlop/Bridgestone 9. Would be interested in a fair rebate for every friend you refer? Would depend on how the system works. Id be lucky to use a set of tyres in 12 months. I know some others on here would push out to 2 years. So if your rebate was only valid for say 6 months I wouldn't find that an attractive offer.

Cant you get a manual gtt? Because for me, that would be the logical solution. Either way, still the gtt, its a newer car, with newer stuff in it. That and its a sedan, and looks MILES better.

Yep your stuffed. I wouldnt sleep tonite if I was you. Should be right hey. Jury duty might be the logical answer. I'd still try and get out of that, they dont pay too well.

Thats based on the assumption that the RB range wouldnt have come along without the skyline. Hell if it wasnt for skylines they might have made a BETTER engine! Damn it, you skyline people are bring my cefiro down!

Id probably still have my cefiro (which is better than a skyline anyway! *sprints and hides*)

We still have all courses bar the drift course at mt cotton. It apparently doesnt fit in with the idea of mt cotton... But yeah, all other courses are still on hey. Just need to contact the office to see which ones are happening when.

Should just be able to get the window pulled, rubber replaced, then reinstall your window.

Nathan got mine, I got my sisters But 48000 tix gone sooo quick.

Well I'm set! Soooo much easier than last year.

Man, if you live at your home maybe. Live at my home its 15% (used to be 20% until the Ps paid off the house) of take home pay is board, and I have to cook tea at least 4 nites a week. Amoung other things. You guys have it way too easy.

Nah man, they are playing normal shows in Syd and Melb as well as all the BDOs. Exactly like tool did this year. Anyway, 50mins to go. Sydney sold out today. Ticketecs 20000 tickets went in 5mins... And as I just got back from parkway drive I wont be going to sleep for a while.

Other than its apparently sold

Thats pretty much it hey. By no means justifys his actions, but you did start it But ALWAYS stay on the main road, just a better chance of people seeing what happens, or stopping to help etc. Anyway, little story about a road rage incident I had a few years back. Coming home one night through the city, I went around a corner, some dude was jay walking, I almost collected him, due to his not walking where he should have been. So he cracked it, jumped in his 4b caught up real quick and then tried to run me, and my car load of mates off the road. Next set of traffic lights we got to, one said mate opened up his door. This guy jumped across 4 lanes of traffic and went left instead of the right he wanted to go. Moral of the story, drive around with 3 big mates all the time

Jesus had a donkey... But by moving out of home do you mean buying your own place or renting with some mates? If its buying DO THAT!!! If its just renting... Maybe do a manual conversion and move out.

Its still only the first annoncement. I've herd rumoured incubus might even rock up. Either way Im going.

The sdt ones start off with a basic defensive stuff. Braking, vision steering etc. Generally safer driving. Thats done in the sdt cars. Then you move to an advanced, which is higher speed braking, skidpan stuff, more driving than theory. Mostly done in your car, but we recomend you use the sdt cars as well as your own, just to get the feel of different cars. Then there are track days etc. Cost obviously changes depending on the course and the location due to different hire costs of venues. I think most of it is on the website.

Aero aids on the V8s? Like I know they have wings and stuff... Also, when did that extra chicane go in? Given the type of race I would have thought the lemans series cars probably would have been best suited.

Not at bdo man. They need their own gig. It was just too much to have them at that sort of event, I was unable to enjoy tool or muse properly just from being crushed for hours before hand, then seriously crushed as soon as they started to play. That or they need to pull down the D come the headliners playing. I guess that was the real issue. Either way looks like Im going! And while we are on the topic of music festivals. Has anyone heard of that reading (pronouced redding) festival. Deadset thats gotta be the ultimate in festivals. 3 full days. I shall be keeping my eyes open for the line up on that for the trip over to pomgolia.

Not that much, mods I think is about $1k maybe, not including the stereo (because we really wont go there). But when I fix stuff, I do an upgrade. So I've spent a lot doing fixing things. It makes it easier to justify the money. When I sell the car I might break even on the mods. But as said, this is a question that shouldnt be asked. BAN!!!

Nah, nissan don't sell them as they were an option. Which one were you after? Just I have some spares (for that very reason).

Can I be blunt and say its your brakes man. Its really the only safety feature on a skyline... You NEED to do it properly. As has been said tho, the cheaper pads arent always bad. I've got some lucas ones, they are pretty good.

Looks ok atm. Id want something better than RATM tho... Thats just me.

Yeah, but 2 things. 1 you have never seen me armed with the blunt end of a spoon, and 2. I can run faster I've also just realised #26 is quite funny. Have a look at a lot of the current 'manly' cars and their colour options

#24 Gold. (note not 'thats gold' as if I see another 10yo watching footy do that as soon as the camera is on them, I'm going to rip the arms off using the wrong end of a dessert spoon)
