  1. As far as I know turbos arent suitable for anything. Truck turbos etc are made to different specification to cars and hence aren't "effectively" interchangeable (wont go as well). In addition to this I think you must remember that every turbo can react differently and hold different hp depending on its make. It's not all about the size! A HKS turbo will perform differently to a Garrett one. This has been proven, despite the fact HKS turbos are made in the Garrett factory and are almost identicle in size. This is just something to think about. Im not bagging your turbo or saying its shit, im just saying perhaps more specifications about, who makes it, exhaust housing size, and or what it came off may help you in this sale?

    good to see.....
  5. Just incase he cant get a bolt off obviously.....?
  6. without a doubt this car is at a great price but i think you should revise your time predictions...its obvious that a 10sec time is out of reach unless there are some other SEVERE and extensive modifications you havent mentioned.
  7. "Lamborghini was rented for the weekend for $1,600. Driver didn't get renter's insurance, kept it under his own insurance with Allstate. Ended up hitting a Honda that pulled out in front of him while driving at 100 MPH. Keep in mind that most insurance companies will not pay for damage caused by reckless driving. " i think the rental company will do him dry for that
  8. "With only 353 miles on the odometer, this Enzo sustained approximately $400,000 in damages. Rumor suggests that this car was being driven by the owner's son. The owner apparently owns a huge RV manufacturing company or dealership." I BET DAD WAS HAPPY!!! I can see it now, "hey dad are you in a good mood??" "why?" "coz i kinda just F*cked your ferarri enzo" I think id be leaving the country!
  9. thats probably more appropriate for a rotary though
  10. Yea the oposing sticker to that is "only cheap wines come in 5 liters" or "Id have taken the v8, but I was in a hurry"
  11. your so right. The majority of police wouldnt know a thing about bikes in regard to what the laws are, not to mention theres sure as hell no traffic squad for bikes.....its just what comes with owning an import these days....it sucks but theres not a great deal you can do about it, perhaps just hope lots of ppl go out, buy motorbikes and start modifying them like in "torque (LAME ASS MOVIE)" maybe the cops will shift their focus to that then...
  12. many things may seem like fraud, but they arent. An incorrect price tag, stating something way to low?? Should the store be obligated to sell it way under cost? (yes if its a performance store ) But the law says no...they dont have too....
  13. of course all the things I have said are subjet to a number of conditions, namely the insurance company in question and the policy conditions at hand.
  14. If you think you have been mislead, you can always complain to the ACCC and or sue for misleading conduct but in many cases, the insurance company will do one of a few things: Most likely 1) Draw the case out with lengthy proceedings, high cost litigation and red tape causing the costs of the law suite to outweigh the gains, hence you give up. 2) Just tell you that you've got no case based on what their policy states and possibly offer you a small sum of money for a quiet settlement....this is unlikley unless they know they are probably wrong, in which case if you deny this, the company will more than likely proceed to option 1.
  15. No, unfortunately I doubt you'd have any case against the insurance company. Each company would have a large policy stating that if any part of your vehicle is deemed to be illegal than coverage will be forefeited. It would probably also state that by taking out the policy you're submitting and ensuring that your car and its modifications are completely legal. The fact that they stated that they would cover your car would be irrelevant as it is subject to your car being completely legal. The onus is on you to make sure your car is legal and hence covered under the policy, it is not the responsibility of the insurance company to ensure that all your modifications listed are legal, otherwise they would be forever running around checking laws, which in many cases aren't very clear cut. Understandibly this is a very bad situation for us, however, if your car is legal and they dont cover you, there is a totally different story at hand. The best you can do is try to ensure all of your modifcations are legal and keep your insurance company up to date as to what is done to your car. Also ring and clarify with your insurance company as to what is and is not covered under your policy....they are, in most cases, obligated to explain to you what you can do without breaching your policy.
  16. neither can i...
  17. it could be like "The Amazing Race" only SAU style....see how fast you can get to the different spots of the gold coast and brisbane, winner gets a bov or something it would be so funny
  18. u missed the point, where all getting on public transport and going around to different peoples houses...stopping randomly
  19. omg...the public transport cruise is so going to take off
  20. being able to adjust the vehicles performance from in the car, or more basicly being able to adjust the vehicles peformance. I doubt there is a law against it, it is impossible to have laws that cover every aspect of modifying a car, so police just pick on things that are non-standard in the hope that noone will kick up a stink about it. That and there is more than likely a general law that states something about modifying a car without a mod plate or approval etc.....this is most likely the case.
  21. if your cheap i may get some stuff off you aaron, where/who do you buy off and is it cheaper than me buying from a store in japan and having it shipped over?
  22. no stop at Logan on account of the fact I value keeping my a$$ virginity and in general, my life!
  23. still available, come on ppl, im in no massive rush as i've secured my new car but i'd still rather see it gone sooner than later....
  24. :werd: in fact it would probably branch even further than that. Im quite sure it states in just cars policy that you must list EVERY single modification to your car....that would include such things as pod filters etc and if these were deemed to be illegal im sure they'd try to get off on such a lame excuse. Keep in mind people that almost any modification is illegal without a mod plate, so be careful in thinking your covered when in fact you may not be. matt
