lol, thanks guys. ;) just quietly I turn 28 today and feel every bit the old cnt that I am. :D

this birthday is on track to be amongst the most memorable for all the wrong reasons. I was woken up at 5:30am by some arse clowns outside my apartment, got a glass of water went back to bed not feeling so good. then at 8am I get a call from my dad (expecting happy birthday son). it's to tell me a car down the road from his house was torched at 5:30am and his daihatsu was stolen. no big deal you think, $1000 daihatsu, who cares? well my nismo pro 2 way LSD, with GTS4 4.375:1 diff gears all nicely set-up in a 32 GTR housing was in the boot. :D I'm pretty fcked now as I've already fitted the front GTS4 gears into my engine so car is not going anywhere now with rear GTR gears and front GTS4 gears (well except in RWD). I have no doubt the car will be torched and the theives never caught. Car thieves in NSW have more chance of getting struck by lightening than they do of being charged and convicted in NSW. Police will be on you like glue should you speed, or own a loud car, or commit a heinous crime like smoking a joint but car thieves, burglars and pricks who assault old people can live worry free on the dole in their comfy government housing getting drugged up on our tax sponsored welfare. Great system we have here.

Anyway, enough of my moaning. :D Thanks for the kind wishes guys, it cheers the salty old baron up. :)

weekend plans included getting drunk tonight and staying that way till monday night. :)

Happy birthday Richard!

Is the charade you're talking about the little white one?

hey mate, nah have never had or been in a white charade. it is a red applause. :D UFQ 739 I think.

car doesn't matter. it's not worth anything. my dad only kept it as it was not worth any money and I asked him to keep it for me to use for parts etc. carried gearboxes, engines, diffs, wheels etc. it was great for that stuff. I just want my diff back. it's going to be a bitch to replace. :)

well all is well. My dad knowing full well the police would not exactly be issuing an APB to find his car took it upon himself to drive around between chatswood and brookvale and eventually came across the car in chatswood just 3 blocks from the police station. he figured that since they torched the last car that was what would be in store for ours and it would fk the diff. he knew they wouldn't do it during the day but would probably do it tonight, so the best chance of getting it back would be today. anyway he called the cops and it turns out they have arrested the litttle butt monkey as he robbed a few houses and was caught trying it again. lucky my dad found the car as the bloke had left half a can of petrol in there reading for tonights torching... forensics is checking the car for prints, skin and dna right now. so it looks like he may finally feel some justice afterall. bit rough that the police couldn't trip over a car that was literall 1 single right hand turn away from where they park their cars.... about 150 meters away.

anyway, it put a smile on my face. :P

    • I definitely agree with you there - I never click on content for cars I would never ever be able to get or compete with/against/be seen next to. Seeing a MX5 compete with a FD RX7 will make people upset though, for sure. Even in 2.5L Turbo form which is pretty grass roots. (or at least as grass roots as classic cars can be) Yes we're all classic car owners now.
    • Wonder what the cause is, but here's hoping it's nothing too serious.
    • People don't always want builds that are overly expensive, or have engineering/registration/insurance issues and head aches that come with them Whilst big dollar builds, and complicated stuff is interesting to watch, there is only a tiny % of people who would actually use this information, or have the spare finances to drop on said builds, whereas the buy a cheap(ish) cool car, and make it better, with a average budget, that the average Joe or Jane could achieve will always be a winner in my opinion 
    • Bit of a thread revival, you mentioned wanting a bit more top end before, do you regret not going with the 1.01?
    • It's kind of interesting - They definitely do builds that split the difference between what they like and what will generate views and engagement. The NC Platform always surprises everyone in a good way, in an uncomfortably good way some may say. They could throw a LS in there and arguably have the best (and best performing) car of the entire stable. But that isn't necessarily what draws views, because people viewing don't want to accept the vegetables of a LS NC MX5 being a superior vehicle in every way (including fun) than a RB26 240Z. This is also why there's not a lot of content about the GR Yaris (on the web in general). They're too good, yet 'only a Yaris' The community doesn't want certain cars to be as good as they are - to beat their hero cars, and I believe the NC MX5 is absolutely one of those cars.
