I think thats like 95% of any car club Damo.

I agree totally. :P

I disagree a little though roo, ive been involved in a some of the more prestige clubs over the time(ie mustang etc),and there are certainly a lot of tossers out there,but ive seen the owners actually looking after their cars and try to keep there name of the club clean,not out drifting in the city or suburbsiin broad daylight,or slagging other clubs while on line for all to see. Of course we dont have to like their clubs if we dont want too just like other things keeping it known but discreet is the key i rekon,some of the younger lot dont understand this theory.

I mean i know we arent a club instead a gathering of people with import cars etc,just think that not enough people think before they talk/act and ruin it for others,both to stay in the club or wanting to join in future.

enough of my opinion /

Sorry mate, a bit loose with the "any" car club comment. I've only been exposed to those car clubs (gemis, escorts, skylines, silvias, 1600s) that do attract alot of younger owners.

Tracy's brother Paul hangs with alot of mature Street Machine owners and they're very laid back socially and big enthusiasts. Perhaps I'll get me that SLR afterall and get into the street machine scene. :P

ah well thats a different story, especially if the female is named Steve

I ride with some girls and they're pretty much one of the boys ... so they get called 'mate' and they have no problem with it.

On the topic of bikes and girls ...

I hate those young tossers who think they've got a chance trying to hit on the girls in the biker group. Like they think because they ride a bike too, the girls are so going to try and hook up. "Hey babe, I ride too. See my sexy 250cc? Bet you'd like to ride it" :)

And the tossers who think getting a motorcycle adds sex appeal. Most of them dress like dorks and ride like twats ... there's nothing appealing about it :P You ride for the passion for bikes, not for the perceived Hollywood-promoted image.

Told you you'd regret selling it :)

Yeah, most of the old school bikers aren't out as much anymore. Too many softies and egos on bikes now, with their "gold card" shiny new gear :P

You going to view the Toy Run riding past Damo? Tracy and I will be in it.

When males call females mate has always annoyed me........Other than that the word mate is all good.

It sounds weird being called mate from a female I think.. Even though I have nothing against it. It throws me sometimes haha

      R32 GTST - 600KW+ RB28/CD009 Build

      By TurboTapin · Posted

      So I've been working on the car a fair bit, doing a lot of little things. Preparing some projects for this winter, as I'm taking 13 weeks off very soon for parental leave. Have my second kid on the way and he's due any week now. I'll need something to do while he's sleeping. I also usually take the car off the road in about a month and a half, until sometime around the end of March.  Still making slight adjustments to my tune, as the cold weather settles in. I've also had to start dropping boost and tire pressure as the weather gets cooler. It's getting very swirly at highway speeds. I drop to 20psi at 20C and 18psi spring pressure at 10C IAT's. I'm currently on 255 Falcon RT660's, but may look into running 275's next summer. They will fit, but barely. Might have to raise the rear a tad.  I'll start redoing my exhaust Monday, as I have the week off. I currently have an oval center muffler and cannon rear muffler. I've been told more then once from people behind me that my rear bumper is going to catch on fire one day. Seems I blow 5-10 second flames after doing a pull. No clue if that's the WMI, as I've never been able to do that before with other cars. I wanted to angle my tip down a tad so flames are pointed down and away from bumper. I also wanted to take the opportunity to reconfigure my exhaust line. I'm going to move my oval muffler to the rear with a pie cut angled tip and put in a new smaller round muffler in the center. I've rocked cannon mufflers on this car for the last few years and want to transition back the oval muffler look. I've also been looking for a stainless project to try out the new solar flux I bought. I'll post pictures on Monday, should be able to wrap that up in a day.  I'm also picking up another rear subframe this week. I wanted a second so that I could modify one with a gk tech anti squat reduction kit during the winter, and still be able to keep the car a roller so I can back it out of the garage if needed. I will also be caging it this winter. More on that later. Lastly, Speedtek still hasn't given me diddly squat. Every week for the last 4 weeks, they have been saying next week. They told me Friday to expect a shipping label that day to ship my two bad sets of ring and pinions back and nothing. There's definitely been more contact since I started destroying their company any chance I get on Facebook, but it's still just words without action.

      Have you done a pressure test on your intake/piping? Cleaned your IACV and Cold start valve?

      KISLOC2 line output convertor for subwoofer in Q50/V37

      By HYBRID VL · Posted

      i was thinking that the 2 wires that go to the sub from factory has some sort of preamp like you mentioned and also a lo Pass filter to get just bass. now that will only use 1 channel and that really should be all i need for a sub? if i was trying to put a set of speakers in the back i can understand cutting into the left and right speaker wires. i will try how im talking about doing it and if that is crap i will do it the way of all wires. thanks for the input guys.

      M35 Stagea intake suction pipe

      By Equilibrise · Posted

      Challenging mig welding thin Aluminium pipe and trying to fit it in, having to bend and twist, but got there in the end. Fits really well and can easily get a socket wrench in there now to put it on/off. I'm in the middle of another project, so haven't installed the suction pipe yet. I'll post some pictures and results when i do.
