I have never hit anything but years ago when i was doing work exp, walking home on rooty hill RD NTH some cop cars went flying past with sirens on, and bad luck for the old guy next door to me, he was walking his rotty in the park. Once it heard the sirens it took off and run under the front wheel of the cop car doing about 70-80, as the cop braked the dog got stuck under the front guard. He asked me to help him pull it out, so i did, then he took out his gun and shot it in the head. He then left to go to the robbery and left me there to explain what happened to next doors dog. The cops came back eventually.

hit a pigeon.. it bounced off the windscreen and left alot of feathers and then kept flying..

hot a poussum in the skyline.. the bloody thing ran out from under a car right under the wheel i didnt know wat the f**k it was.... this thing was the size of a small dog and was taking its last breaths on the footpath when i had a look for it...

felt so bad..

also saw 2 dogs get hit by one car after i nearly hit them coming the other way... one dog got hit in the back legs and ended up in the lane next to where it was hit yelping an shit..

the other dog got hit in the frontlegs, and head and ended up flying across 2 lanes and ending up in the bushes on the other side of the road..

pretty shocking thing to see

this thread is getting a bit ordinary. I've never killed anything bigger than an insect with my car. I have however lost two dogs, one hit by a car and left to die on the side of the road, an one backed over by a truck outside my house. not very nice when it happens to your pets. I've also been hit by cars myself (some whilst walking, some on push bike) a few times. mostly my fault though.

My mum's a wildlife carer and she's hit more stuff than me!

Best kill was the four baby birds she stood on and killed by accident

gee..talk about a big footprint :(

ha I was up in queensland with some mates a few weeks ago and I was driving, saw this thing in the middle of the road, crawling sooo slowly....makes it rather easy to avoid it. Turtle.

      The German place in Cabramatta was rock solid, fresh pretzel cooked to order back then. Then it went all quiet, after all the poker machines were removed, then I believe it closed for good. I did drive past the other week and noticed outdoor lighting a big screen, but no idea what is there now.

      Yeah I suspect even if you hold airmass per cycle/cylinder constant if you get too far away from stock you're still going to have problems running the factory tune within the bounds of the factory load scale. Cams, different displacement/rod ratio, etc. I'm just lucky that the GTIII-SS with wastegate boost + CA compliance cats is pretty much equivalent to stock turbos. When I have actual space I can finally get it tuned and modify the fuel system for flex fuel to 100% handle any detonation concerns when cranking the boost to whatever those dinky turbos can put out.

      I would say no, why, because my daughter, who also lives in Goulburn, hasn't recommended us going there Pity, as we miss all the German joints around in Sydney, actually, the restaurants are the only thing I really miss about Sydney, and a special mention to Ishibanboshi at Bondi Junction, their Kara-age Don is heart cloggingly deliciousness (always added a special boiled egg...or 2) 😋

      Does that German restaurant still exist in the old place out the NW end of Goulburn? When I say "out the NW end of"...I am really being vague. It was 1997 when I was last there, and the only point of reference I can recall is that it was on the opposite side of the main drag from the big merino. And when I say "opposite side of the main drag", I don't mean "on the main drag". It was either a couple of streets back from there, or might have even been out in the sticks a bit further. Was an old farm building or mill or somesuch. And when I say "the big merino" I might actually be thinking of a completely different part of town, because I just looked on maps and the big bugger is not where I remembered him to be! The food was good, consisting largely of various German mystery-meat sausage/loaf things and kartofflen.

      So while the second sentence is completely correct and the whole point of the conversation, the first sentence bears consideration. If this bloke is just hoping to throw big turbos on and drive it around, because there are no helpful facilities at all in his tropical paradise** then he likely has zero chance of even knowing what the TP is on the last column in the stock maps, let alone know whether the ECU is operating anywhere near it or past it. So the point is very very moot. And, per what I said before, at stock boost on those turbos, you may well be off the end of the map. **I'm just back from Vanuatu, so I know exactly what small Pacific nations can be like wrt paradise without requisite facilities. But it's not even that simple. I put a high flow on my car and had to drive it around without a proper tune because of the lack of opportunity*** to put the bigger AFM and injectors into it to allow it to be tuned. I had to turn the boost down to less than I had before, and back off the boost controller's ramp, because it was exploring parts of the map that it didn't drive in before, and really couldn't access for tuning on the dyno either, and so was pinging. It was still well within the last column, because when I first**** set up the Nistune on the Neo I rescaled all axes of the maps to give some more space to explore. ***Family dyno was broken ****This was 13 years ago, and the TIM thing wasn't a thing then and so TP would definitely grow when pushing past the stock tune's limits.
