I'm thinking it's time for semi's on the street, t1r's are struggling, i'm guessing the ku36's are so cheap because there shit?

i use them. i love them. great tyre, havent let me down yet. sure theyre not in the same league as r888's, but for a 3rd of the price, what have you got to lose?

To all concerned,

Haven't been on here much for good reason ... I've been knocked off my feet for the last week with a nasty flu. I've got a few PMs to attend to, I am aware of. I'm improving and hope to get to your enquiries tonight. Thanks for your patience.

Dale, thanks for your PM reply. I'll call you today ... now I have my voice back!

The life of Dan (a blatant stolen method of posting from ruby)

Home builders took over 6months to put a slab down, government are not going to pay the full grant. Im standing to lose 10k, bomestead domes are claiming they are not liable for the shortfall and it is up to me to pay this difference, along with interest for the amount of time it has not been paid.

They also trying to get me to pay 1600 for a tree chopping I didnt authorise them to cut

Fun times, currently have a house in the ghetto complete waiting to be attacked n crap stolen off it that im liable for.

possible law suit to follow

hey i aint that broke,

legally id say they will be going down. its just the issue of how long it will take to sort that out and how long will this house sit empty in the slums.

the tree issue theres no way there getting anywhere with that, no invoice no pay, no authorisation no pay

:P

oh f**k did i lol! :D

ugh, that pic made me forget what i was gonna post. remembered now. :O

was having a chat to a friend of mine about an hour ago. shes been looking at buying a new car for a while now, her only criteria are it has to look good, and be pretty easy on fuel.

after she had a chat to her bf last night (hes one of those types that "knows everything" about cars, but barely knows how to take a wheel off) shes decided on an rx8. i tell while an rx8 does satisfy the looking good condition (lets face it, mazda rotory's have always been housed in very attractive cars), its no where near being easy on fuel.

her reply to this was her boyfriend said "nah, its only a 1.3 2 cylinder engine, it'll be great on fuel." and now despite my advice, shes convinced that the '8 will be good on fuel...

... so if anyones been thinking about buying an rx8, i might know one that'll be for going cheap soon. :(

it dosnt have cylinders, her argument is invalid. maybe her bf will suggest she get forged pistons in it?

however i think they look pretty decent :O

she should prob look at something like a toyota silycar, honda integra dc 5s are also nice, mx5's no?

Tell her that it is a 2 storke engine (Even though it doesn't have any strokes), so in effect it'll use twice the fuel that a regular 1.3 litre 4 stroke engine does. It's also why they are rated at 2.6 litres when compaired to piston egines and why they make so much power from 1.3 litres.

    • Man, you guys are like an all knowing encyclopedia.. how do you guys know how to fix everything?? but thanks. i will try to trace this wiring today. What is this globe thing you are referring too? Globe Power Supply? Are you referring to the light bulb?
    • Vinyl paint always ends up coming off interior trim and looking like arse. For the a pillar trims.....just try cleaning them with fabric shampoo? Maybe ditto for the headliner.
    • Hi everyone, I'm generally new to DIY projects, and I've browsed this forum and watched a lot of youtube videos but still have a few questions   Firstly, how does spray painting interior hold up? in particular like vinyl parts, my current mode of thinking is to use methyl spirits to take off original paint, clean/prep well, light coats, no primer or clear coat    Secondly, what is recommended for the headliner and, for example (my car is a r34), the A-pillars which are some kind of other fabric material, do you think I would be successful at retrimming these? or would it be better to go down the blacking out via Dupli-Color Vinyl & Fabric Paint    Any other advice / tips / tricks for refreshing/modernising these interiors?    Thanks
    • As title says  Pm a photo with what u have  Type m style would be good As Hidding a thick front mount
    • Just note that when trying to find a short in a globe power supply, it is best to disconnect the globe as it will allow current through to earth. With it unplugged it is easier not to get confused. Also with the r32 wiring, the high beam has 2 power supplies (one when you push the switch forward and the other when you temporarily pull it back; so if it is the high beam blowing you will need to trace both circuits
