micolour FTMFW

car goes to racepace sometime this week

Yeah I couldn't remember lol

nice nice, cheaper oils for you then I guess :P they can order in a lot of aftermarket parts like HKS intercoolers kits for example and shit as well cant they?

'34 might be sold next week. Happy pants again :thumbsup:

Also, I am useless at self-serve wreckers. Took me 1.5 hours to remove a steering wheel and headlight from a car. Most of that was the headlight, didn't help that the guard and indicator were squashed against the headlight which made it hard to get out.

man workin is over rated.

gettin paid to do nothin is where its at.

+1. It's freakin awesome.

Having said that, I'll be working my ass off in the next 2 weeks. Moving office. Time to put my guns to use :P

fkn realestate agents, do shit fk all. Open up the door for inspection, hand out some brochures and get a massive commission when the house sells haha

Been viewing some houses over the weekend and they all driving mercs and bmws and look like they 18yrs old.

to violence against women i say no, but i came this close today to smashing the f**k out of this dumb blonde broad minded person on the great ocean road.

not only did she ignore the signs that clearly say "SLOW VEHICLES f**k OFF OUT THE WAY AND LET PEOPLE THROUGH" but she also ignored my many beeps, high beam flashes, hand gestures and cries of "f**kING MOVE IDIOT" and she could CLEARLY see/hear me. f**k i hate inconsiderate f**ks like that. if only i was in my cousin's truck i would've ran the bitch over and pushed her in the f**king sea.

haha yeh on the surface it looks that way but like any job a lot more goes into it than that.

plus no sell no pay, so the commission has to be worth it since we are risking making nothing.

haha s'all good.

Give me some pointers on low-ballin. How much higher is the stated price range compared to the absolute minimum someone will accept it for :P

    • This lady loved her FD for 25 years!  https://www.topspeed.com/80-year-old-woman-donates-fd-rx-7-mazda/ My brother in law. He's nice enough to let me drive it whenever. He'll likely not see this, but I'll try: @r-is-for-fun got any pics?
    • Just something I found searching for more info on Emotion R, apparently the ECR33 Skyline GTS25t was either originally black, or there were two of them, the black one being the original demo car, then building a white one which was part of the 1997-onwards (to at least 2008!) Cockpit Tatebayashi Tokyo Auto Salon booth demo cars. It appears that Emotion R closed down in 2008 and was declared bankrupt in 2010: http://bank-db.com/hasan/208365. Scan of a magazine with the black R33 from 1996: Wayback machine archived page from May, 2000: https://web.archive.org/web/20000529061027/http://www.emotion-r.co.jp/skyline.html Option magazine with a few photos from the Cockpit Tatebayashi booth at the Auto Salon from various years: 2002: http://www.jdm-option.com/photo/index.php?action=item&category_id=154&image_id=3507 2003: http://www.jdm-option.com/photo/index.php?action=item&category_id=137&image_id=3033 2005: http://www.jdm-option.com/photo/index.php?action=item&category_id=116&image_id=1831 In 2008 Cusco website mentions that the Cockpit Tatebayashi ECR33 was displayed at that year's Tokyo Auto Salon: https://www.cusco.co.jp/event/2008/12/post_735.html As of 2021 it appears that the ECR33 demo car ended up being exported to Florida, USA: https://rmcmiami.com/inventory/1996-nissan-skyline-r33-cockpit-tatebayashi-demo-car-big-te06-turbo-endless-brakes-lsd-450hp/ And finally here's Google streetview of the Emorion R garage in 2023 which is amazingly not only still there, but the showroom is still full of various parts in stock and funishings, etc.: https://maps.app.goo.gl/ttyEAZdZLyzermyT9 Apologies for nerding out a bit. I used to love doing this 20 years ago on SAU and got a bit nostalgic for a moment... 😅
    • Try fabricating something like this and install it under the pedals? Not sure if it's legal or not....
    • Even though I have some pretty good (brand) ratchet ringies, I avoid using them to break open tight bolts. A broken ratchet is very annoying.
