  1. Yes, it is a stupid question Just recharge your Opal card instead
  2. This is the AZ6 isn't it? AISIN AI company presentation.pdf
  3. The gearbox is rated to 250nm. At 450nm I give it one good event on good rubber to drop its guts. My bet is it lets go between 3-4k rpm during a WOT pull. The little thing will be fun prior to it let going though. Maybe a slipping clutch might save it?
  4. My millennials don't, my millennials get cars bought for them. Bloody kids. Imagine all the, holidays with the Mrs, all the cool cars and bikes I could have if I stopped feeding, clothing and supporting my 3 financial burdens. In other news.....a guy at work got a new Corolla hatch, after taking it for a spin, and thinking how comfortable and nippy the car was, I went into a state of depression, you really know your getting old when a auto Corolla seems like an attractive purchase.
  5. Millennials do.....apparently.....
  6. Not from me. I've used lots of different "bolt on" spacers, from fleabay to brand name (fleabay items with a brand name painted on them). Never once had an issue.
  7. LOL, yeap I do still want a turbo MX5, manual of course.
  8. My auto is epic shopping trolley hoon machine. Do a skid for baby Jebus.
  9. Tuned by the marketing team maybe?
  10. I though they were only really happy heat wise at around 200, BUT, on 98, BUT, yes, sugar cane juice is magic juice isn't it IRT the evils of heat and knock and "stuff". I really need to give E85 a go one day, maybe...if I ever get anything that warrants it again.
  11. Post up torque dyno plot thingie 265 should be fun in the little girl.
  12. It's all about where the merge separates
  13. Stage 4th gear results maybe? With the head that decimates all, it may have made don torque low in the rpm range and made 4th gear go bye bye. Bokey, tell them the price son....
  14. Pics that I tried to post but couldn't, now I don't remember where I was going to post them, so I'll leave them here
  15. His arse.... Still, from a outsider looking in, he talks the talk, but I haven't seen any slips or natsoft times. Not saying his builds aren't impressive, it's just they have massive holes that let the rest down. It's weird, his S15 is the most under engineered over engineered build I've seen for years. Meh, let me know when you hit the strip, I'll bet a bag of donuts my old $10k VX SS commodore smokes Bokemons S15. And it will do it all night long. Now, where do I put this dirty spoon....?
  16. Read: "I don't know" Meh, I'm just here for the biscuits. I believe the stock gearbox is good till 250nm, I think it is the same Aisin AZ6 thats in the BRZ. So.....needs more T56
  17. From these, didn't like 19" ride quality To these, which fell out of favour when after multiple times to balance, from multiple shops they still vibrated over 100 kph. Long story short is they aren't built well. To these, kicking it OEM, 17 x 8 with 245/45 RE003's. Ride quality is awesomeballs, the 245 17", as opposed to the 275 19" do lack some grip when going from idle to WOT. Bonus is the 245/45 17 are cheap to replace... Actually finding clean, un-guttered 2002 VX SS OEM wheels was a PITA, and they ended up costing me....$700......yeap........$700.....LOLOLOLOLIMAIDIOTLOLOLOL I did find new ones to, they were only $1000 a rim.....WTFF At this stage the thing is basically 100% stock looking. LOLOLOLOLOL In other news, fitted some Vanes and Hines slip on pipes to the "Bogan luxury yacht". It now is possibly too loud, I knew I should have ordered the comp BD killers, meh, job for later. Until then it will just be another overly loud Harley.
  18. Polls are hard. If by new car you mean stock new sporty car for $40-80 k I would say yes, compared to anything from yore they are worlds ahead. But, if your budget is lower, than that, then maybe you might be better of with something old, but, what "good" car are people talking about, everything from the 90's that is good will cost a fortune, and the cheap ones, well, I don't drive around in drift pig type cars, I had cheap shit cars when I was a kid. That's when your lifestyle, the amount of compromise and risk you will accept, and expectations come in to it. Older cars may have more soul, but they are typically rubbish by todays standards. And then you go out and throw commonsense into the wind and purchase with your heart. Stupid cars and stuff.
