well im sure a few of us have a tattoo or 5

post up your tattoo

what it means. the story behind it

where you got it done

and the price

and some regret stories...!!

heres mine

it says well in the simplest form it says "Impulsive" in sinhalese (sri lankan)

although us lankans arnt good at sports, dont really have any cool traditional style

have the worst accents, i reckon the writing is awesome lol

anyways

it says impulsive, because well thats me down to a T

how i went about getting it

after watching 2 whole seasons in a row of "miami ink" i thought about getting one

the next day, i wasked my old lady to write out impulsive...

saturday the 16th of feb.. at 3 pm i had to drop of a friend in melton... to some karate thing, right next door was a tattoo shop.. walked in there... told the guy what it was all about... there was a girl who had a booking at 3 to get a tattoo completed... she over heard the story they both decided to go with the theme of things i should get it right then and there.. the chick said she didnt mind waiting

so 20 mins and 35 dollars later... here i am

with my new INK! which i cannot stop looking at

sorry to hijack your post but i have a question. i want to get a tattoo that says "impavido" which means fearless in italian. i want to get it down the left side of my ribs. the problem is on the left side if the tattoo run from top to bottom the letters face in what i think is the wrong way. (the dots on the i's face my back rather than my stomach), does any one have an opinion or suggetsion on this. all i have come up with so far is to use a mirror effect but this makes it harder to read, also adds a bit of flare and originality i think

blaq.boi, nice nice. I love tattoos that have a story or some meaning behind it. Love that it's in Lankan too.

hahaha, Akeenan, I just looked at it again and you're right! It does look like an old mans behind!

I have to agree that the Sinhalese looks good. I have a Lankan girlfriend and the writing that ive seen on different things she has looks very cool. Nice change from the "standard" japanese or chinese characters people get for tatoos. Nothing against the jap or chinese characters, but its a nice change.

a mate of mine got a tatoo up his forearm

its pretty big and long

it says davison in some cryptic text - only the tatooist did one of the letters upside down

so it reads danison

the v came out upside down

Nice..looks like some neat work.

Be careful that could grow into full sleeves before you know it :ermm: ....they can be addictive,

I have a griffin as a sleeve (shoulder to elbow), his wings go up over my shoulder...thats for my Welsh heritage(also a cover up of an earlier effort).

The other side I have a phoenix, it was done for my rebirth (symbolic) after some tragic events.

All up around 1k's worth and about 14hrs in the chair.

I'll get some pics tomorrow if I cbf.

      2020 Nissan Skyline 400R V37/Infiniti Q50 RS insurance in NSW

      By Duncan · Posted

      Yeah they sure are available for import now, its great news Matt, You need an import specialist insurer, nothing has really changed over the years about the mainstream insurance companies not touching them. I have my cars with Lumley (same group as NRMA etc) because they insure imports and have a good concept of "stable use" where as long as no more than 2 cars are being driven each day you can have them all on a good rate, I've also had no issues with claims through them. Note they won't insure a car if you take it to the track, even for an off track claim. Shannons are another option but I had a lot of trouble with their claims (they were happy to take the premiums, not so keen to pay out), and I'm sure there are other import specialists too

      Do You Play An Instrument?

      By Rezz · Posted

      I'm a lifelong home drummer, was in a couple of bands as a teenager/early 20's then moved to Japan and didn't play at all until 2019 when my missus and I were invited to check out the band room upstairs at a restaurant cafe here in JP. They had a full acoustic drum kit and they let me have a bash for about 20 mins. I went away from there wondering how I could not play for 19 years.... Missus bought me a e-drum kit a few weeks later (Yamaha DTX402) which is basic but lets me play at home in my tiny Japanese house.  Also have an Epiphone Les Paul and little Vox amp and delay pedal I bought for the missus because she wanted to learn to play the guitar, but she never got into it. That was about 8 years ago. I taught myself to play some 80's U2 song riffs like the Fly solo, etc and some other things but being a drummer I don't really have the dexterity in the fingers lol. Ham fisted if you will. So I kind of just mess around with the guitar rather than try to seriously play complete songs. My son on the other hand inherited all my side of the family's musical talent and is a brilliant classical pianist at 16 years old. He'll go on to do something in the music industry here for sure once he finished his schooling. I got him a Yamaha NU1XA hybrid piano earlier this year.

      Blow Off Valve Is Causing Car To Stall!

      If the BOV is plumbed in as mentioned, like stock.... why exactly would it stall? It'd be like stock. Do stock cars stall with stock bovs?

      Blow Off Valve Is Causing Car To Stall!

      By Dose Pipe Sutututu · Posted

      You mean a rich spike, as the air has been metered multiple times due to the turbulent air, you end up injecting more fuel causing a momentary dip in torque and quite possibly a stall event. TL;DR, install a Haltech Elite or S3 or R3, convert to DBW, throw all ancient shit into the bin and enjoy the car.
