i've always loved audis... but would never get one unless it was a "proper one" none of this A4, TT rubbish...

hey hey!!! somepeople are in serious need of water up north here!! *ahem* don't wash your car for one week cara, and i can shower for months!

is the smell in and around the engine bay? or unburnt fuel coming from the exhaust? if it's the later then you're just running rich idle

not 100% sure, but possible things to consider - stronger valve/s springs - might lower compression - cam shafts? should fit though, can't see why not.

i find that how they assess the quality of drift is too unrefined. angle? speed? time between finishes? closeness? how do the judges measure it? i saw a drift "battle" on video where they based who won by the loudness of the crowd. it's like a gymnast event where the judges hold up numbers - based on what they personally/professionally feel, and no one REALLY considers gymnastics an event. nor does anyone think dancing with the stars a sport either. see the trend? gymnast, dancing, drifting? pusseh? j/k i see it as purely a fun, crowd pleaser type activity, but no way near sport level (yet?) where different aspects of your actions earn you a standardised set of points.

yeah because deep and meaningful conversations while effortlessy drifting on the mountain in my rx8 by moonlight is sooooooo totally hawt..

i've heard that sards have leaky collars without the appropriate rings. didn't you actually sell a set of sards ages ago?!!??!?!?!?! edit: your not using the stock rail though eh?

agree with you there, but it wont end. then you might as well do this while the motor is out, and then do that while the motor is out. never ending money pit

bought a 42" LG plasma. - plasma has a slightly higher refresh rate - they're heavier obviously - shows true black - it holds the picture a little more "solidly" than lcd - better picture in sizes 42" and above - etc. a quick google on "lcd vs. plasma" will bring up loads of reviews. but with the rapid improvements in technology you'll find it'll be a giant see-saw. one brand will put out the overall best this month, then another next month, then another brand the month after. like warwick said, unless your a videophile you'll hardly notice the difference. i personally find the plasma tv a little better on the eyes after extended use, compared to my lcd computer screen. (both LG)

yip, unless you can do it yourself the labor costs would throw the budget right out the window.

perfect proof that speed cameras (the system) don't work in reducing speeding on the streets; because their system isn't entirely bulletproof. like you have pointed out the whole idea is about sending you a fine (which should hit home) about the speed limit in a certain area. you're not really aware until X amount of days later are you? a hypothetical accident could have occurred in the 2nd and 3rd speeding event, and you would still have been none the wiser about the "aware'ing" that the camera should have been doing. i would look into getting the last two dropped, go see a solicitor and see what your options are.

oh so true. spot on there!!! i think alot of people lose sight of this, and just want to be able to claim XXXRWKW; like it elevates them to some higher status the tyres, brakes and suspension play such a big role in controlling the car, rather than outright power or (having a turbo). i think a good point to note about why RB25DET motors are so cheap, is because they are nearing on 13-14 years, and even imported you are looking around 100,000km~ish for a halfcut. they almost certainly would require a freshen up or a rebuild while the motor is out to get any sort of reliably upp'ed power figures.

:laughing-smiley-014:

hurry the fark up john

just on topic... bought these babies today! f**k cars

at present you're technically NA (not even that!)... and before it gets brought up, NO i don't have boobs!

skylines are for wannabes.

anyone know where to find a 1-way?

yup... although why you'd want one for looks (or for a pretend intercooler) is beyond me.

the black "stock one" is your radiator. which is totally different to an intercooler. you don't "need" a turbo to have an intercooler, but you need a turbo to have a working intercooler. the radiator is a cooling device for engine coolant, which circulates through the block. the intercooler is a cooling device for compressed hot air from the turbo, which then leads into an intake. two different parts of an engine.

this is one of my pet hates... people going around claiming ###RWKW, spent $##,000, but skimping on tyres.

respect is earnt, not given. you need to get your facts straight; there is no designation for red/white and blue/white badges for r33s. r33 turbo models have red/white shields only. r33 non-turbo (non type-s) have blue/white shields. r33 non-turbo (type-s) have red/white sheilds. some r32s have plain metal sheilds ones, some with red/white sheilds not entirely sure on the r34s, there's so many variants ranging from GT-X, GT-4, GT-T, GT-25, etc.

jesus!!! coming along well

spaniard doesnt look a happy chappy
