USA sucks major balls.. not my cuppa tea

No history, no culture, no historic monuments, no food.. nothing but high rise buildings with plain architecture.

Nice photos anyhow, thanks for posting it up!

Thanks for all the comments guys, feel free to post up pics of the US..

I'm currently in San Diego, amazing city.. haven't had much time to take any more shots from there.. Today I went to the Aerospace Museum which has an SR-71 Blackbird mounted out the front.. Most amazing thing was the F-4 Phantom hanging up inside, I never realised they were soo huge, the photo won't do it justice..

Looking at heading to Mexico tomorrow if we have time.. back to Aus on the 23rd Jan..

Ok, here are my latest.. not as good as above, but still some are ok..

I went on the Maddison Square Garden "All Access Tour" this place is incredible, there is a stage underneath the main court area..

Underneath the basketball court is a Ice Hockey floor that the can remove all the wood from in about 2 hours..

We also got to go into the Rangers change room, was pretty messy as they had played the night before..

Metropolitan Museum of Art has an exhibit of Armour and Weapons, this is one of the knights suits of armour from probably early 1500's..

This was out of our hotel room in San Diego..

We saw the Panda's @ San Diego Zoo.. There are only a couple of Zoo's in the world that you can see Panda's..

Here is the F-4 Phantom @ the Aerospace Museum.. It was flown off the USS Constellation..

    • small update time, after always wanting a "cool" looking bonnet for my car and always struggling to find one for the series 2 that i liked and wasn't an insane amount of money. Saw one i liked on RHDjapan from D-speed in Japan the price was very good for a carbon bonnet so good infact i was a little unsure how much i trusted it, decided to bite the bullet and with the help of jesse streeter in not long at all it was at my door. Once it was delivered i ran in from work and quickly unboxed it and to my surprise the quality was actually pretty good i quickly removed the old bonnet and placed on the new one to test it out and even the fitment wasnt too bad at all. Then decided to paint the little grille in the bonnet black to stop it sticking out so much.   I decided to not mess around with the hood latch and just install some aero catch hood pins, having never installed them before did some YouTube university classes and i was good to go. fair to say it is not a fun job at all from making brackets so the pins sit nicely and actually cutting through the bonnet but also being very scared of cutting the holes too big it took wayyyy longer than i would like to admit but finally got it there. Then it was time for a quick test drive to ensure the latches actually worked and thankfully the bonnet looked very stable. I still think paint matching the bonnet and leaving just the part that sticks up as carbon would help make it all look alot neater as im not sure how i feel about all that carbon on a very fridge white car but will leave it as is and see how i feel with time.  
    • I think it's bound to happen, you finally get it all perfect, and bam, something will happen. I took a while to get a Commodore rear quarter repaired where a P Plater clipped it. Two days after getting it back, Sarah wiped it out on a concrete pillar in an underground car park... This is why I take forever to repair them, it stretches how long until it gets bent again... 馃槢
    • Nah, not really responsible for that little fiasco, but I'm still pissed at myself for writing off my 86, or when I reversed my VX into a pole just before selling it, but, meh, 5hit happens to stuff, all it takes is a slight distraction, and life is full of distractions, and "dooh" moments   
    • Me coming to check the thread to see if my manual boost controller was set up correct......  
    • Ah yes but were you responsible? In the time I've had it (just before Christmas) I spun off the track twice and drove into things twice, so four separate incidents.. in two outings. Luckily I have a full OEM GTR front end to put on which is hopefully not a precursor for further, future, more expensive mistakes to come. It is some consolation that anyone who would want to buy my Altia bar would have to paint it anyway, the guards, too. (if they can get over the asymmetry). Hopefully over the weekend I will disassemble and see how badly things are bent. From what it looks like, the headlight has actually just been pushed back and bent the headlight support (which .. somehow... crushed the guard in). I guess the headlight plastic is strong stuff.
