  1. Lol @ Kernigan.. Hey did you know Mel Gibson drives a Cressida...its almost identical to mine.
  2. expensive cars are expensive... the whole plot is a bit,,,,yeah....I mean what sort of multi millionaire is going to risk life and limb in a winner takes all exotic car race...wouldn't you just buy the other cars...I do love how all the crashes are actually cause by the police though....
  3. you are man of many knowledge Michael
  4. Might be better in 3d but it's not fantastic...they are fast cars but just never really look like they are going fast.... I guess thats what happens when you dont use CGI It is good entertainment though..quite alot of larfs early on actually
  5. I didn't mind Need for Speed but the car racing was very fake, it made FnF racing look almost realistic in comparison
  6. Excuse my lack of technical terminology..
  7. No..vehicle height is adjusted at the base of the coilover by winding the shock deeper Into the tube.....the base of the spring seat adjusts the preload on the spring...so if you want it stiffer spring you wind it up or "tighten" it...
  8. well the spring seats on mine are adjustable...I figure if you wound them up it would effectively change the preload on the spring...or sumtin
  9. Mine is crazy weird...i have about another inch tops that I can drop the front, the rear has about 3 nches more drop in it...that's with tyres sitting about 10mm from guards all around...so if I did them all even it would look very odd.. I did a couple turns more height on the right but nothing drastic... So it's just height, they dont change dampening or tighten up your springs or anything...
  10. Probably not a bad bill considering, that's a fair whack of work and bushes are one of those jobs that are a pita without the right equip.... Does it involve ride height adjustments or mostly just dampner changes....Like if I had my car at a height I like would it come back a different height?
  11. oh thats not bad at all...i remember telling me you had a huge bill, i thought it was just for the corner weighting
  12. well i guess just sticking another 3lts of motor in there could suffice...but thats a 10k excercise....not everybody is a drug dealer Nick
  13. and thats all that matters...hey mow much you pay for corner weighting car?
  14. yes but you would of saved 600$ and you would have gained knowledge from the experience which is priceless....so really it all just comes down to CBF and how much you are willing to spend.. i mean for 580$ you could of built yourself a Micra...
  15. some peeps are making 400 thought stock airbox....so yeah 80mm pipe and pod should work
  16. i guess it depends how good you are at DIY..but you're right, everybody has their limits....Its good to know them...
  17. yep...you gotta be crazy to call em....my housemate had problem with his car starting i said its probably plugs and just needs a service in general... he was adamant it didnt need servicing ,hadnt been done in 60,000kms or more mind you, but that it just ahd a problem starting...i told him to buy some spark plugs and i will help him replace them... anyway wouldn't start for work one morning, called mobile mech...160$ later he had new spark plugs... can lead a horse to water but your not allowed to drown it probably tightened a nut that was hard to get to...
  18. for a few hundred more they could put a turbo on while their at it and make it a real car
  19. seems appropriate
  20. continue breaking breaker bars?
  21. might be a plastic bag stuck on the radiator...it happens
  22. yeah whatever...you just made that up...shouldnt you b fixing your Subaru anyway'
  23. but its not made from corn...well not in Aus anyway...and fructose is made from fruit....get your facts straight man
  24. why would that hurt cooling system??
