wow... i think you have taken that way outa context... i am referring to my interests in regards to F1, you seem to keep on telling me what i like about the sport when you have no clue about my views or interest in the sport (tho it appears you have worked out that i'd like webber to win a race/take pole). Why would i need to threaten you about F1 discussion?? lol?? take a chill pill man, then take a reality one...

agreed, his argument is invalid because he makes it with stupid pictures! and dan is just a tool, perhaps we should all report his posts and give him a holiday!?!?!

nah, not telling you that you have copped out, i just hope you will take your blinkers off and aproach things with an open mind... if you want to be closed minded, thats fine, i'll just attempt to crowbar it open any way i can! =P

my phone number is 0408 893 559... would love to talk F1, not enough talk of it imo, but not this week... its exam time and since these are the first exams i'm taking in about 8 years, i'd really like to study (this is just a study break for me atm - i didn't even get to watch the race live because of study =\)

WTF?!?! who died and made you mod??? got take it to the waste land where you think people care about your opinion!

on a side note: have you heard the new that the calander for the break away series has been released and ADELAIDE IS THE LAST EVENT OF THE YEAR!!!!! f**k YEAH!!!!!!! bring it on!! the fastest cars in the world once again racing in adelaide FTW!!!! everyone knows we have the BEST street circuit, rivaled only by monaco, and thats only got history and the fact that it test a driver to the max on its side... where as adealide is one of the best racing street circuits ever!!

Yer i heard something about this on the news last night, not hanging my hopes on it, f**king victoria taking everything wankers

Cool. Easy to mis-interpret tone on the inet, I apologise :D

not telling you that you have copped out, i just hope you will take your blinkers off and aproach things with an open mind... if you want to be closed minded, thats fine, i'll just attempt to crowbar it open any way i can! =P

Fair. I think you'll find though I'm not really wearing blinkers :down:

Let me know when you're done with your exams and we'll have a chat about F1, even over a beer if you're game.

Read that too (didn't take long did it) about the break away series calender. I'd love to see F1 cars back on the streets of Adelaide but I' not going to get excited yet until there is some form of confirmation. Monaco isn't really a drivers track, most F1 drivers aren't that fond of it...... It would be soooo interesting to see a modern F1 car with the sort of grip levels they have now on the streets here.

MMMM I want. I used to love the atmosphere of the f1's, the v8's never really did it for me... would love to see the old adelaide track resurfaced and used >:down:

but of course if media mike gets a race here in adelaide, he has to worry about balancing his 'tough on hoon' hot air vs the 'sa is great and f1 is great and im great cos im the premier' etc..

yeah, mebe a few of us can get together and watch a race + beer... but if you guys are anything like me, u'd hate people talking during the race!! if your there to watch F1, sit down shut up and watch as you like to be really involved in the race.. if its just on in the background while people are doing other stuff its not worth doing imo! tho add breaks are for talking =D

so im not sure where we could do it, mebe at the rosemont on a sunday for one of the earlier races, or at someones house if they are game (plus have big tv, awsome sound system and comfy seats)

I'm the same, V8 Supercars don't do it for me at all... F1 however.... where do I start... :P

I'd be keen for a F1 get together, and yeah no talking while the action is on. If OneHD does the Japanese GP later in the season live it could be the goer.

Thats because the McLaren looks like an absolute PIG of a thing to drive, watching the onboard shots from qualifying 2 and watching Heiki drive that car mostly sideways through the stadium section made it clear....

Exactly my point...Ferrari and McLaren were on par with each other in the Australia GP....and look where Ferrari are now (fighting for a podium place so to speak finishing 4th) and where McLaren are now (fighthing for 16th place)....

I'm not overly concerned about refuelling so long as they maintain pit stops for tyres. Used to make F1 interesting in the 'old days' when they didn't refuel them, makes teams/drivers have to manage their fuel consumption.... In those days some cars would coast across the start finish line or not make it home at all!

Yeah i agree with keeping the pit stops in the game.....to see who can get the best strategy etc etc....if no refueling means that the F1 GP will be like 30-40 laps maximum......which sort of takes the fun out of it but ahh well

      Should I use rust converter on this?

      By Murray_Calavera · Posted

      The easiest option might be to just spray a bunch of fish oil in there.  At least that way you can feel like you've done something while you continue to ignore it

      WTB noltec r32 front upper (camber) arms

      By GTSBoy · Posted

      I'm firmly on the "zero compliance is good compliance" for FUCAs. I'd be looking to solid metal joints even if the primary reason for having them is because they facilitate the twist in the arm. I have never been more happy with the way the front suspension behaves than I have since I got rid of the FUCA bushes. Even the thin little (short lived) poly bushes in the Whiteline adjustables have too much compliance for my liking. It probably won't be long before I have sphericals nearly everywhere, probably including both top and bottom arms in the rear, and I'll start complaining about the increased costs for dental work. But I will be enjoying the driving more, I'm sure.

      Brake pad Compound suggestion

      Plus, you'll get great experience in bedding in pads!

      I have offset Nismo brackets so the fact the gktechs can pivot is less important to me. I have 170mm JIC arms with bushings - but they provide no adjustment and I'm not sure whiteline eccentric bushings will fit them (I don't want to ruin the bushings currently in them to find out). Ideally I want something with bushings + adjustment; hence why I'd like to find a pair of these. Unfortunately they aren't easy to find.

      Brake pad Compound suggestion

      By Murray_Calavera · Posted

      @Vee37 How much do you really care about finding these pads again? If your pads are quiet, work well and produce minimal dust, really isn't that enough? If you are set on finding the exact pads again, I suppose I'd do something like this -  Visit your local Jax, find out what brand of pads they carry. If the Jax workshop you previously went to had the pads on the shelf, then you can almost guarantee it will be of said brand.   I'm guessing you don't have the receipt for the previous work and pads. Can you visit a Jax workshop and see if they can look up your previous job to see what pads were fitted?  Still no luck? Put your stalker hat on, find the staff that used to work at the Jax store and ask them. Talk to local workshops, try to find out where the mechanics went to. Talk to Jax workshops, maybe they relocated to another workshop. When it comes to mechanics, its a small world. You'd be surprised how easy it is to track someone down. If these ideas don't work, shit will start getting crazy very quickly.... You could find out every brand and model of pad that fits that car... and try them individually ticking each off the list if it wasn't the one you were looking for.... If you go down this path your going to want to learn how to swap pads yourself, it is very easy, takes minimal tools and space. If you have room to park the car you have room to swap the pads. Plus you have the advantage of making sure all the brake hardware goes back in so they won't squeal!
