Which is why I always park at the 2 furthermost parking bays & try to be as close to that side as possible, so at least theres only 1 side of my car that has a chance of getting scrapped by the moron's doors instead of both side... :)

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

Picture this.... Peak hour traffic, drivers doin 10km under the speed limit in the left lane, its coming up to a round about and im wanting to turn left but im in the right lane............

Wat really grinds my gears!!! Stupid drivers that dont have the sense to go into the right lane when its bloody empty if they are driving straight after the roundabout, Instead the block and slow the left when i want to turn. absolutely pisses me off and i get it everyday on the way home from work... lol Rant over!

I hate when people don't let me in when I have a turn coming up. I try let everyone merge infront of me, maybe you'll be lucky enough one day.. :P

What really pisses me off is the cockheads that try to go from the right hand lane to the turning lane on the left (Guildford Rd and East Pde) RIGHT where the turning lane starts.. I mean f**k, it's not as if you didn't know you had to turn there, no need to grab the brakes and cut people off because you're an idiot. Every morning I see it happen and I saw the same chick do it two mornings in a row. If they're trying to squeeze in front of me, I don't let them in... USE SOME FUCKING FORESIGHT YOU RETARDS

Well seeing as a lot of us are enthusiasts and generally spend a fair bit of time on the road, I can understand why idiot plebs behind the wheel would piss a lot of us off :(

I'm also pretty laid back, it takes a lot to piss me off.. unless I'm in the car, then it's very easy :)

Like those speed mountains down Fitzgerald St? those things suck ass.

haha yeah those ones, almost ripped off my front bumper, then when trying to go slowly over them, I'm holding up traffic..

always got to do a detour to avoid those ones now..

What about those humps on Hay Street near Subiaco? They aren't really high.. but its just the fact that every 100m or less, there is a hump.. for like 1km.. ITS ANNOYING!! :P

i did that and parked very close to the kerb to maximise the distance between my car and the white line.

and yet it still happened.

thats why it pissed me off so much

      Nismo coppermix twinplate clutch

      By joshuaho96 · Posted

      From the pictures I have when doing the job the flywheel is the same diameter, I don't think they're playing weird tricks like putting weights at the outer diameter to increase flywheel inertia or anything like that. The OEM flywheel is definitely heavier, but it's not a huge difference. Quoted weight savings of the clutch is 2 kg so I can't imagine the flywheel being lighter than ~7 kg. Kind of regret not weighing it before the clutch went into the car but as far as driveability goes I have no complaints.

      R32 update from 1990's spec.

      HKS trigger kit should be very easy to integrate with a Link. It's a 36-2 crank trigger. Hard part is finding the motivation to take off the timing belt and everything on the front of the engine to install it. You also need to cut out a hole in the oil pump housing so the sensor can read the trigger wheel. Changing out the cam sensor for a 24 tooth setup is probably good enough but as others have mentioned depending on what underlying assumptions are changed it becomes more of a problem. Reading the crank state off of the cam is an abstraction that works in the general case, but if you have an edge case it makes less and less sense. There is a GTX2860 gen 2 that can take a compact 5 bolt housing so it's direct bolt on but I'm not 100% sure of what's involved. Peak compressor efficiency drops off a bit on these turbos vs -5s, 77% vs 73% but you get way, way wider region of operation. The -5s have a really strange surge line in their compressor map that is all over the place. If you think the hot side on the -5s aren't open enough you can try the Tomei T550B turbos which a local tuner seems to be happy with:
