i hear the same crap every morning.....

the kwinana is busy from canning hwy and the mitchell is busy from scarborough bch rd..... those stupid reporters need to get some new material, maybe report on some new roads rather than repeating the same sh*t every morning!

i hear it while im at work :)

if the same roads are busy... wouldnt that mean everyone is taking the same route, and not listening to the reports?

regardless of which route you take, the quicker route is usually busy, and the longer route is slower...

"The Mitchell Freeway heavy, Hutton Street to Scaborough Beach Road"

I hear that every morning, I don't think they even do a check, they just say it. I leave for work at the same time every day and its different all the time....

me and my mate are constantly trying to find quicker ways to get to uni in peak traffic. We live close too (North Perth) so its kind of like a challenge to see who gets the quickest route, regardless of distance, to uni at say, just before 9am :no:

Cos the mounts bay rd off-ramp coming from north is a b!tch and all :)

but regarding the radio... i dont listen to the radio. period.

I listen to triplej, so I dont' get traffic reports :P

however when I'm in workmates cars (carpool ftw) and at work I hear them, only any good if there has been a big accident, or like when that guy jumped off the Hutton st bridge about a year ago (didn't he know how much inconvenience it would cause? :ninja:) They are mainly there for advertising, after saing how the roads are there is always an ad for something that the reporter announces, sounds really cheesy, too, they spend more time speaking out the ad that the actual traffic report.

It's always the same lines too - "Kwiniana is busy in the usual spots, Mitchel is busy from Hepburn Ave to Vincent St". It would be better so say "Kwinana is still clear at the moment, and Waneroo is busier than Mitchel..." or something like that - take it for granted that we know where it'll be busy allready.

I'm always driving accross or against the flow, so I laugh at them each day... well not maliciously, but smugly anyway.

Up marmion, along Whitfords (actually that can get busy until after the freeway), then up Waneroo... past Prindaville Drv (coz everyone else turns there), and up Buckingham.

I don't even listen to the radio anymore - just put a CD on...

      Neil's R33 Gts-t Build

      By Victory · Posted

      All I can say Duncan is good luck and I hope that Neil did not run any E85 in Cheryl. I have recently experienced the full spectrum of fuel tank issues in my R33's that had been caused by E85 and contaminated fuel. When you take the cover off the top of the tank and have a look inside you will get an understanding of how easy it will be. Best case situation is clean fuel with minimal contamination. My GTR was like this and it was a very simple operation to just grab the fuel pump carrier bracket and slide it up and out of the tank. My three GTS_T's had different levels of fuel contamination that was probably caused by E85 in the fuel.  In the worst case all of the metal components in the tank had rusted to the point where there were pieces of rusted metal swirling around in the tank. This required the removal of the exhaust, the tailshaft, the complete rear cradle and the fuel tank. The components in the tank were that rusted that it took days to get the fuel pump carrier and the mounting brackets out of the tank. When the tank was finally cleaned, everything inside the tank had to be replaced. With the tank all back together I could then reinstall it in the car along with everything else that had to come out. Good luck and I hope that you find a clean tank.

      It is a two door. It is black and also still has the OEM wheels and stereo. Exact model would be KR_R32RGFEL_SS According to GTR-Registry.com is a 2 Door Coupe; RB20DE; 2WD no HICAS; MT.F5; (11L) Projector Headlamps and Fog Lights; (12_) Electronic Active Full Auto Air Con (Climate Control); (13-14SS) V Selection -- Which seems to be accurate description of my variant. Will try to upload a few pictures soon. The OEM wheels look like the below image. Image is taken from the goo-net-exchange website.
