Practicable - "able to be done or put into practice successfully"

Courtesey of the Oxford Dictionary.

I fail to see how he was not able to successfully use his left hand indicator? That way he could let other road users know what he was doing so that any drivers coming in from exit three could have safely entered the roundabout.

Some roundabouts are too small to worry about the left indicator - i.e. by the time you've around to the exit #3 you're already pretty much out of the roundabout, and indicating left would probably be useful for about 0.003 seconds. That's when you don't need to indicate. Medium to large roundabouts - absolutely yes.

I have to partially agree with this..

I probably go around the roundabouts in a 'hoon' manner.. since I'm usually going 40kms.. So most of the time it's useless for me to indicate. Still do it, but they probably dont even see it

Tidy silver R34, seen it a couple of times around the Heathridge area. 1CVQ *** or something like that

First world problems

Doesn't matter how small the roundabout is. Could be the size of a pea ffs. You're still supposed to do it. Maybe in your view it may be impractical or unnecessary, but in the handbook it actually says all roundabouts. A lot of people actually go really slow through roundabouts, unlike a lot of us efficient people, so for our sake I would rather them indicate out.

Saw a nice white spoilerless 34 exiting Armadale on Monday night near Gull, going through the roundabout...

This is pointless and bordering on unsafe. I saw a tool trying to be champion indicating out of a small roundabout the other day. Because the roundabout is so small it looks as though he is turning left. One day someone will pull out in front of him.. maybe then he'll stop doing it? Not even cops indicate out of roundabouts. If you want to talk about effecieny, the bigger issue is the idiots that indicate right even though their going straight and bring the whole roundabout to a stop.

Lol, cause traffic cops are awesome and all police obey all the laws and are never convicted of fraud and/or hoon laws and live their entire lives by the letter of the law... :rolleyes:

But I digress, clean looking silver R34 GT-T coupe turning onto Marmion ave this morning heading south.

why are u bantering about f**king round about's you cant all tell me you don't all go through round abouts with indicator, get the f**k over it and get back on topic

black 34 kwinana fwy

purple 33GTR glengary car wash

34GTR davalia RD duncraig

32GTR Mitchel FWY STH

33GTST Pulled over by cops just after city heading sth

RED 35GTR heading sth on Kwinana

all between 8:30am and 1:30pm

a friend has spotted a white R33 with its front end extremely damaged and dumped on Elizabeth St in East Cannington. its near william st intersection.

if anyone is missing one I would suggest heading down there asap as it wont be there for long :(

    • Let's hope that's not a copy pump either. There were so many copies of them back in the day.
    • Damn it, I was at work last night, and stayed in a room there during the storm with the car outside, but undercover, I just went downstairs and well....there was a large steel locker that has come from some place last night, it wasn't anywhere I could see yesterday, and yeap, it landed on the fraking car....of course it did..... LOL So, I'll need to take it back for paint and panel, luckily it was only the boot that took the hit, so it could have been worse Serves me right for staying at work and getting on the cans with some of the boys
    • Yeah, really happy with how it all turned out As for aftermarket lip, nah, I'm not really a fan for practically reasons on a street car that gets driven everywhere  I did have the full lower kit on my 2015 STI, but found the front lip scrapped alot, even at stock 4x4ish ride height As the NC sits now, with the lowest point of the car at 110mm, so just legal, some steep driveways and steep speed humps will still "just" scrap those little plastic OEM air dam thingies on the undertray just before the front wheels
    • Here's one I help build and tuned a decade ago, Garrett  GTX3071R Gen 1, T3 twin scroll 0.83 rear housing. Went from larger 272 cams down to smaller Tomei Poncams to help with the low end. S13 non VCT motor. Car was purpose built for the track, hence low down was the focus. Note the actual dyno chart shows lower boost, however the EBC and boost gauge showed 1.9Bar (Ignore the torque, I was young and didn't know how to set derived torque)  
    • I’m doing some side developments on SR20det S13 engines, its one my hobby cars used it to compare flow capacity of some smaller size wheels. SR20det is one of another JDM legendary engines I'm sure there are plenty of SR enthusiasts on this forum, I will share results some common turbo configurations here. a quick run down of what the car is: Wide body 180sx Type X with black top engine (blue). It has: Stock bottom end Haltech 1500 ECU 5-0 motorsports trigger kit Kelford SR20DET Beehive Spring with Titanium Retainers Kelford Cams SR20DET S13 188-B 268/272 Cams G25-660 Turbocharger in T2 .64 rear housing internally gated ARP Head studs MLS head gasket 1000CC ID injectors Walbro 450L Fuel pump Front mount cooler kit JJR’s 3 inches turbo back exhaust (its too short for the 180sx it had to be extended) Pump 98 fuel Hub Dyno tune So far made 270rwkws at 22psi full boost by 4500RPM. Engine is very knock limited hence a pretty bad looking top end. From previous experiences it seems like SR20dets are happier with bigger size turbine, some thing like a GT30 would make way better top end, but on same time response is lost. It won't be a problem with S15 VCT engines. I'll be testing alternative turbine housing, turbine wheel and possibly dump pipe options for extra flow to resolve the problem and of course E85 would resolve all the issues.
