Words Cannot Describe What Some Of U Missed Out.......


Recommended Posts

Can I think out loud for a sec.... that safety car should have a race number and a driver name on it. There... I said it... P*ssoff this one horse race crap and bring back the V8 eater. We can't always ban cars that smash aussie crap can we?

the australian touring car series handicapped the GTR's and everything else that was brutaly quick around the track, mostly to make it more competitive, as for banning it...

... well, im fairly sure group a in general just died.

threads gone from r35 at bp regular meetup to which is the best super car to gtr being banned :P

technically it wasnt banned more so holden n ford packed up there sh*t and started their own series with different rules so they wernt allowed to race i think they were going to run the race without holden n ford but didnt have the marketing/people behind it to keep it going.

many threads on sau, youtube & wikpedia on the subject

Go for a ride in one 12 months ago, then I'll be jealous lol - I'm still one down on Mr Donnon though...

The best thing about R35s is there arent too many going around with god-awful atrocious taped on Bangkok body kits.....at the moment. Give it time :(

BTW Chef one of the CAMS officials that passengers in the safety car was very impressed that we could shift our R35 using those manual paddles behind the steering wheel. You see the safety car crew are not allowed to touch the paddles or switches, and have to leave the car in 'D' for Drive under strict orders from upstairs :P

hey dave

just in case u didnt read facebook status, you're going to hate me AGAIN

you should have hung round for another 10 mins..........you only just left before i got there, and 5 mins afta i got there (and started talkin to luke and flick who seen us pull in)................she pulled in again :P

bah..according to matty t..it was there again on sat night..and knowing my luck..i came into BP about 5 mins AFTER it was there..goddammit

was there to see it last night, quite impressive, guy driving it was a top bloke, had a chat to him for abit. Took a video of it pulling out and disappearing quite quickly, if i have the energy during the week, i'll upload it.

car was insane,he know he offered to let me drive it but every one else would get jealous so i said no, cant be too greedy ya know lol

I did tell the guy when he first pulled up "uh oh, now you've done it. Here come the Skylines Australia club members! Get out while you can" :(

but the funniest part last night was when cara said "she was the best blower on the block"

i think she was talking bout her car

... yes .... she was talking about the car :( ... nothing went on in the back of the Stagea ... nothing! :/

Haha, that's ridiculous - I was going to say what about all the manual safety cars over the years, but all the ones I can think of in recent memory have been autos :S Either way, pretty damn soft on the organiser/clerk-of-course's part. There's no reason why the V8s shouldn't be able to keep up lol

I'll give you a buzz later on this week and bring the N1 out for a drive, if you're around the place.

Dohmar - you're seriously dissing BBS LMs?? Mate, time for a style adjustment!!

Yep. I dont like my cars rims to look like a malvern star's wheels. However if you like pushbikes, go right ahead.

5 or 6 spoke ftw. I see nothing wrong with stock 32/34 gtr rims ;P

-D

I think mesh type rims look good on skylines, even the cheapish starcorp fusion look reasonably good. Much better than impulse...!!

Heh sorry. Whenever I see a car with mesh spokes I think "Standish Spec"...

my only question is...

Does it come in 18 speed version?

-D

    • I should note too as I have all 4 wheel speed inputs to the emtron I now have the emtron controlling the attessa solenoid for 4wd/traction and launch control strategies. 
    • It works quite well with the adjustibility within each of the programs of the turbolamik. Essentially p1 is drive and lockup comes on like a normal driver.  But in program 7 I have customised it to not request the lockup clutch to engage until something like 6500/7 when slip was the lowest. 
    • Yep, I like that. The tags are only on the first post of a thread and we don't get huge numbers of new threads. Also, I plan to add some more report types and we could have a member report type like 'review tags' then members could flag if they thought a topic wasn't tagged correctly.  No way man, I dig the input. Thanks! 
    • It's a valid thought. There's not exactly that functionality already (when creating a thread) - that's where the OP can use/create any tag they want. We'd have to come up with a way for the user to request their tags get reviewed or something. Otherwise the mods would have to review every new post's tags (for those that have them, anyway). There's kind of that functionality already exists to some extent, post facto of starting the thread, where the OP or any other user could report the post to admins, and request that tags get reviewed. We could do this already, and any user could already have made such a request. To make it a part of the forum proper, it would require an initial and an ongoing education programme, so that people know that it's a thing. OP based tagging/request for review would also require at least some (probably most) of the user base to be told that it's a thing they can do. Both of these things probably wouldn't spread too far and/or get used very much. If it was the standard approach on a lot of different sites, then it might do, because people would be used to it. Prank's approach to this differs from my original thought, by leaning into tagging. Which is fine - it's possibly better than what I originally suggested. In fact, I just went to the R32 GTR wiring diagram thread and added tags, including "Library". That's probably a good way to use tags and the idea of a library. We just have to drag together an (organised!) index of threads or posts that have that tag. I have yet to do any of my own follow up by pursuing worthy threads and posts and reporting/marking/tagging them for the library, such as the @Sydneykid stuff I was talking about, and possibly any amount of @Lithium 's and others' posts. At least if I tag them Library, we'll have a start.   Back to @Wazmond's idea as it relates to @PranK's, we might have some sort of a list of tags that are already used to scrape for this library. I'm not entirely sure how that would be presented or used, particularly if it got long. But it's yet another idea!   cheers
    • Just a thought, but instead of restricting, is it possible to do like an "up for review" kind of thing? Where say someone who's not an admin/mod tags, it would require approval for it to actually tag? User posts with a 'tag' > Admin/Mod Reviews > Approves tag > Tag now exists kinda thing? Just came across this thread so Im not too sure if Im straying off topic or not but forgive me if i am...
