What's wrong with big tits?

Apart from that, fast fours is the bottom of the barrel, though most Aussie import mags are. HPI used to be pretty good, but lately, all they seem to do is run stories glorifying their advertisers. Impartial evaluations would be nice, but when they have page fulls of adverts, then they ramble on about how great that product or car is in a story, it kind of cheapens the advice.

You think Fast Fours and Hot 4's is bad? Wait until you see the UK magazine called 'Max Power' this is worse magazine i have ever read!

I'll read HPI anyday.

Speed shut down because it simply didnt make enough money.

Tragic, cos I was lining up to work for them . My favourite mag ever.

HPI is slipping too, though too many are blind to it...

Agreed... SPEED was the best mag for sure.... quality cars and quality photography.

How bout a petition to bring back SPEED???

I just projectile vommited...

You might laugh, but some great quality magazines are based in the states and concentrate on Honda Tuning. Something like that should be released down here, Nissan's seem to be the weapon of choice for imports in Oz, but then you only get the dedicated owners buying it, none of the kids - so there goes your revenue.

Speed was a top mag, and Option would be worth it was readable. Hot4s is shocking, went through it the other day at the newsagents and some of the shit they talk is ridiculous. How to spray paint your mags, who the f**k cares!

its 'coz they figure people in the 'modified car scene'... or, more importantly, their target audience (15 or 16 year old schoolkids who could only afford a car if mummy and daddy bought it for them) are all sex deprived and couldn't get some if they tried....

I agree, even HPI's contents nowdays isnt as good as it was but Ill still read it over Hot4s anyday haha. I admit I used to read hot4s back in the days when it was actually a good read but somewhere along the years it went downhill, and to think back then I was thinking about subscription oh the shame haha.

I am really disappointed with HPI these days. I thinks its poor. All the japanese content, car comparos.... all gone and just feature cars stationary with text. I haven't enjoyed an HPI in quite a long time and I buy them every month. Latest 1 has 104 pages and I finished reading the content in under an 1 hour. Speed used to take days.

Don't get me started on SPEED. That was the best magazine ever published in aus. I can't believe it was not profitable. Shows australia is a bunch of ricers if 2dmax was more profitable..... I feel sick.

      MLR's Bogan cruise ship

      Yep, that was one of the things we learned fast in the past with our MX5. When you drive with the top down, you are effectively standing out in the sun, 100% of the time, and not getting in any shade (because roads aren't shaded generally!). Just like standing out in the middle of a field on a sunny 27C day is a bit of a bad plan, so is sitting in a MX5 without sun protection.

      I also just ordered some Frankenstein bolts and side mounts to fit a hard top Just in case I do find one, basically so it doesn't need to be fixed to the car with only the front latch.......and then gaffa tape to keep it in place for the RTN journey from wherever I get it

      If your temps are fine now, you probably won't have any issues with where your vents are as they don't look right up at the windscreens high pressure area, so any differences when giving it the beans for extended happy laps would be minimal, but, they should vent heaps when stuck in traffic  Much like how that reverse cowl on my SS let "visible" heat out when stationary, but, because it was basically at the windscreen my coolant temps on the Hwy actually raised because air was being fed into it at speed (110kph), to only come back down to around 90° when I got off the Hwy And your 100% correct about the NC currently not needing vents, but, if I was to add a turbo, and a oil cooler and intercooler in front of the condenserand radiator, and then take it to the track???? It is apparently a recommend requirement if I don't want to worry about coolant or oil temp issues, but, any of the above are possible scenarios, over time As it sits now, with the triple pass radiator and stock air conditioning system, I have absolutely no issues with either temps or air conditioning efficiency, I've been basically daily driving thie car for the last month, both on the Hwy, and peak hour, bumper to bumper traffic, but, that's pretty much expected from basically a standard engine  Talking about no issues daily driving, it was 39° the other day and I was sitting in bumper to bumper traffic on the M5 and then M7, with the top down, and with the air conditioning blowing nice cold air on my feet, balls, and face, well, there was one issue, my head and arms got pretty sun burnt Note to self: leave a hat and sunscreen in the car for such days 🤣

      Mechanic in Victoria

      I would agree, unless you need something specific to the HV motor/battery side repaired or investigated, any mechanic will be able to perform normal services, but if you prefer, maybe look for a mechanic who regularly services/repairs Nissans, the VQ engines are pretty common in the Nissan lineup.  Sorry, I can't make any suggestions, I don't live in Vic.

      Some of them keep working fine. 9 out of 10 of them end up causing an absolute misery bleeding the system and get thrown on the workshop floor in a tantrum and never thought about again because they were never really needed and just added crap to the car that we could have done without. Same-same with HICAS, A-LSD, and various other stupidities that over eager 10x engineers thought we had to have.
