when ur sitting in ur car at shops or whatever, n someone opens their car door into u, looks at u, then continues off like nothing happened.

times when an external waste gate with screamer pipe would bring much more satisfaction than a horn or arm out the window but u dont have one..

People who can't merge properly, can't change lanes properly, can't negotiate roundabouts properly, can't indicate properly, people on the freeway who can't do the speed limit, and people who don't in

Another thing to bitch about: Daylight savings

I hate it,

People always so "omg, it's soo good i can get more things done and go for a walk"....

WHY DON'T YOU JUST GET UP AN HOUR EARLIER IN THE MORNING YOURSELF AND GO FOR A WALK THEN OR DO YOUR SHIT THEN, STOP PUNISHING EVERYONE ELSE YOU SELFISH BASTARDS!!!

Another +1 to daylight saving hating.

EDIT: Also hating the fact that I have to turn off auto clock update for windows since it would always go back to the original GMT+8 time instead of the DST one.

im sure this will be the last day light savings ...

I highly doubt it, as its been show countless times before, when the government REALLY wants to do something, they will get it done regardless of whether the majority hates it or not.

Its been defeated 2 or 3 times in the past. Im confident it will be defeated again.

Besides we get all this crap about cancer and poeple dieing from it, then the government decides... 'YES more sun is good. lets have more sun so we can get more cancer and die faster"

and i feel sorry for my boss who wakes up every morning at 5am.. and now due to day light saving is waking up at 4am.

Yup and what a lot of people don't realise is that we have a form of natural daylight saving anyway as WST is calculated somewhere over towards the WA/SA border so we get about 15mins already. Add an hour and keep it running til the end of March, WTF is our govt thinking :O

People complaining about DLS. Some love it, some hate it. Quite frankly... who gives a stuff. We still all wake up in the morning, go to work, come home and go to bed. The suns position in the sky makes no difference.

I sure as hell give a stuff...

Ryan in my opinion you are right: the sun postion makes no difference...

BUT It's the hours disruption to my sleep, to my work, to my body, to my life. It really f**ks me up, I feel heaps more tired, angry and aggressive. It's takes me 4 months to get used to it, then it changes again!

Normally, I set my alarm for 6am. The next morning I wake up at 5.59am and turn the alarm off before it goes off (I hate that alarm sound) Then on the weekend I'm the same except without setting the alarm. Now with DLS I don't wake up till the alarm has irritated the shit outa me for 30 seconds, I drag myself out bed, and then get ready, I'm late for work and feel like hell.

The corporate world has many other subtitutes for DSL, like flexi-hours n shit like that. They don't have to punish everyone else.

Also just a side argument that I used to hear alot up north: Me and my family used to live up in Dampier (near Karratha), Normally you would go for a walk at 6pm when the sun has gone down when it is nice and cool (especially after a 40c day) but 6pm with DLS the sun is still up and its hot as hell: so you have to go at 7pm, and when you work 12hr shifts 5am-5pm and your going to bed an hour later because of the disruption to your walk, that can suck big time, lol

*calms down* Anyways, I'm glad I'm not the only one who isn't a fan, I'd feel like a dick getting so wound up about something that no body cared about.

:D

Yeah I really hate it when those wannabe tough mongrels start asking you to do a skid.. I usually just ignore them.. most of them are probably still not matured or old enough to understand the laws and abide them..

And +1 for going the speed limit and people driving past you giving you "the stare of death" and ask you to slow down when they themselves were going at least 10k's past the limit :)

      R34 Diff oil

      By Kinkstaah · Posted

      99.9% of them are viscous diffs. The 0.01% are helicals. They were only option-able in the series 2, as well. I have redline heavy shockproof in my helical. It seems... fine? I don't think anyone is ever going to know until something really breaks and at that point I'm not sure anyone will blame the oil. I just chose it because it's extremely heavy duty and my car will see not-road-legal duty for it. I've also had sadness with various diff oils in the past sweating out everywhere and/or other 'fun' things, with clutch diffs. Given you have a 1.5 way on the shelf, I'd not even bother with the diff in the car and just get to tinkering with it. I would spend the $90 on oil toward the labor of someone else putting the diff in if time poor even lol.

      R34 Diff oil

      By drifter17a · Posted

      I believe mine is helical and not clutch type. During drifting one wheel was spining as if it was open diff so bought kazz 1.5 way and has sat on my shelf for the past 5 years as I want to learn shiming process and do it myself   in meantime thought I change the diff oil hence post here. So any 75-90?   i am pretty sure r34 are helical not clutch lsd as standard . That is gtt ones

      R34 Diff oil

      By GTSBoy · Posted

      No. Well, some people "seem to use redline shockproof in the diff". Most do not. I would only contemplate it if you have badly worn CW&P gears. And no. No-one in their right mind has ever put ATF into a diff. Any normal diff/gear oil of the right viscosity will do. Whatever takes your fancy. Castrol, Nulon, Penrite, Redline MT range. Whatever. It's just gears. 75W-90 or 80W-90 is typical. I think that GL-5 is hard to avoid these days, although I think that a GL-4 is probably preferred, given the vintage of the equipment. At least Redline offer a number of GL-4 oils. If you have a clutch type LSD instead of the VLSD, then of course you need a proper LSD oil. Anything from any of the same names above. If you have a helical LSD, then it does not require LSD oil, and the recco is the same as for the VLSD. You don't want the LSD friction modifiers in the oil for a non-clutch type LSD if you can avoid it.

      You may want to list it up for a little higher - This price is much lower than you may realize. Here you're pretty much selling to people who most likely already have these things on their own rigs. S chassis people eat this stuff up like you'd not believe.
