i'm not complaing, we could do will all the rain we could get...

man, what is it with some people. This has NOTHING to do with being a hero, or being 'fully sick'. My goodness, i spend most of driving trying to beat the fuel economy figures i got the tank before (in economical terms).

it was soooo slippery out there today, maybe i just collected some decent oily water from beach road or something, but this was just a WARNING to everyone else that the roads might be a bit more dangerous than they would expect after some rain. F*cking hell, excuse me for warning fellow SAU Vic peeps to take it a bit easier than they might think...

fark....

i agree no one has jumped on hear and started saying how awsome they could slide out going round corners and stuff like that at all, and how much of a hero they are at doing it, all he was saying is be careful because it hasnt rained in a while and the roads always become extra slippery because of it.

man the roads were awesome today!!, full opposite lock and arm out the window! If only i had my helmet to hold out the window like all the d1 drifters!

:(

seriously though, the roads were slipperly today especially in the morning. With the water picking up all the dust/oil + 8am peakhour and everyone still half a sleep on the roads, its just asking for trouble

lol fully sik you should of filmed it and put it up on youtube. :D

if you think we are talking about hoon driving in this topic look at the last comments in the 'spotted' thread thats some stuff to complain about not this.

^^^LOLLLL i remember them pics^^^

Seriously tho, you dont have to be fully sik to get caught out un-expectedly. And due to the fact that it just doesnt rain all that often anymore we need to be wary that everyone's wet driving experience has decreased slightly....

I had a Burger in one hand and dart in the other, 3rd gear and my back and was steppin out, and I hardly had my foot on the throttle too.

you smoke in your 34???? :) that makes baby jesus cry

Im not trying to drag how "fully sick" my car is. And I can easily control the throttle so I dont loose traction when coming out my drive in the wet, I was just agreeing with how easy it was due to conditions and how I was caught by surprise yesterday morning.

yeah my ass end was all over the place on the way home. heard there were a few crashes around.

amazing how it can go from hot dry 35 degrees then the next day 22 rainny cold and wind. Only in Melb :)

Not quiet. In Canada they have Chinook (sp?) winds... one day it could be minus 35 C in winter and the next day it can be plus 5 C. Melbourne has nothing like that lol

Seriously what a poor excuse for the thread. You guys are muppets.

1. Yes throttle control is important

2. You don't' have to be a fu(king hero to spin wheels in the wet so get of you pedestals princesses. I span my Fords wheel in the wet going up a hill yesterday, why? Because it's simply SHIT in the wet but it took all of 0.5 of a second to stop it. Jesus - someone call the hoon squad before I kill someone.

Rant over! :D

    • I agree on doing some better than factory pistons, rods, and oil pump. For anyone using the vehicle on the road, I don't get why everyone wants big cams. The stock cam profile, with some more lift would be mint for road usage. Everyone going big cams and then wondering why it isn't as responsive in traffic, when they've shifted the torque curve upwards an additional 1000RPM. Make torque, at lower RPM. Sure it's not as cool as claiming "500KW" and revving it to 8,0000RPM, but that same torque 2,000RPM earlier... Then you don't need the extremely high end pistons and rods, and blah blah blah.
    • Personal experience. Those f**kers burn. And are actually a PITA to put out. Next time I walk down the back, I'll snap a photo of what the inside of the bonnet looks like when that thing ignites. PS, powder fire extinguishers are useless on that stuff too as it's fibrous and when it ignites, it starts to pull apart. And you end up just blowing powder through a sieve effectively.   Like the big thing is, if it's fire resistant, it's job is to stop what burning? The METAL above it? It's just to try keep heat off the bonnet paint work.
    • Oh man, sorry, $60.00000000... 😛
    • That's more or less what he meant. What it really means is that you do not have to go full crazy on the build. Don't need the best oil pump, expensive rods & pistons, big cams, etc. You can upgrade whatever you want instead of using stock level items, but you don't have to. Having said that - any time an RB is opened up, if anything is getting replaced, I think the opportunity should be taken to do all the sensible upgrades. Pistons, rods, pump, etc.
    • February update 🙂 We managed to get the very last 1/18th "Extra Scale" cars stock available from bookstores in Kyoto. These are actually the last ones and will not be restocked again! Hachette Collections Japan have not decided on a release date for these or other models in the series, so for the time being these are all there are available new.  These are showing up on Yahoo auctions at inflated prices already (especially the Celica and NSX) so get yours now at a very reasonable price before they disappear!
