Yeah I agree with most of that. Just the occasions when I am over taking, and I'm doing the speed limit or just over, and the car am passing is going enough below that I was catching up, then I want to be able to overtake without having to major speed then duck back across. If somebody else wants to speed excessively and my over taking at the limit or just over frustrates them for all of 10-20seconds, well they can just get over it. I'll always move back right after if I can...

II admit there have been the rare occasion that the person has sat on my arse the whole time, rudly, and i got annoyed with them and I did just sit next to the car I was overtaking and blocked them out. I know it was the wrong thing to do, but have prob a couple of times ever done that, cos they were such rude arses that I got pissed off.

Just had to share this gem with you all.

Me in the little honda 1.6ltr going around a roundabout near Civic, I see an old Falcon sitting at the roundabout. OK he has plenty of time to go, but doen't and as I approach him nearing my exit, he decides to pull into the roundabout just in front of me. Apply brakes and sound the horn, to which I get the finger and vulgar words. This guys probably late 20's average build with probably his GF as passenger, but I don't take this attitude from no one, so using the increadble power of the honda.... I pull along side and show him I'm not impress with his driving or attitude. He follows at a distance then closes to my bumper, then gives plenty of distance until we get to a set of traffic lights, OK I think if this guys wants to make something of it, I'm ready, I've got a good tune playing loud, I'm pumped and awake.

But what does he do.... He sees me at the lights, pulls over to the side of the road far behind everyone until the lights go green and I start to move off. What a little foul mouth chicken.

Power of the Honda... If I was driving the Skyline I'd bet he'd piss himself.

Don't spose ya got plates?

Wasn't looking for plates or a confrontation, but ready if there was one. Probably his GF told him to pull his head in, and rightly so.

For those thinking this was brave. Remember this was during the day, in a car I could see the odds and I have a martial arts background. Please don't try this unless you know you can back yourself.

    • Price seems pretty good to me. Also seems a hell of a lot cheaper then buying another vehicle that only ever gets used for towing.  I'm a long way from you mate, I'm a couple of hours out of Brizzy. 
    • New [400]Z, they're available in manual and you don't have to worry about parts scarcity. 
    • Just planning to have the wiring neat and hide as much as possible.
    • The sodium acetate, mixed with citric acid, doesn't actually buffer each other. Interestingly though, if you used Sodium Acetate, and acetic acid, THAT becomes a buffer solution. Additionally, a weak acid that can attack a metal, is still a weak acid that can attack a metal. If you don't neutralise it, and wash it off, it's going to be able to keep attacking. It works the same way when battery acid dries, get that stuff somewhere, and then it gets wet, and off it goes again breaking things down. There's a reason why people prefer a weak acid, and it's because they want TIME to be able to be on their side. IE, DIY guys are happy to leave some mild steel in vinegar for 24 hours to get mill scale off. However, if you want to do it chemically in industry, you grab the muriatic acid. If you want to do it quicker at home, go for the acetic acid if you don't want muriatic around. At the end of the day, look at the above thumbnail, as it proves what I said in the earlier post, you can clean that fuel tank up all you want with the solution, but the rust that has now been removed was once the metal of the fuel tank. So how thin in spots is your fuel tank getting? If the magazine on the left, is the actual same magazine as on the right, you'll notice it even introduces more holes... Well, rust removal in general actually does that. The fuel tank isn't very thick. So, I'll state again, look to replace the tank, replace the fuel hanger, and pump, work out how the rust and shit is making it past the fuel filter, and getting into the injectors. That is the real problem. If the fuel filter were doing its job, the injectors wouldn't be blocked.
    • Despite having minimal clothing because of the hot weather right now, I did have rubber gloves and safety glasses on just in-case for most of the time. Yes, I was scrubbing with my gloves on before, but brushing with a brush removes the remaining rust. To neutralize, I was thinking distilled water and baking soda, or do you think that would be overkill?
