these are people walking along the street, driving next to you or in your car?

so random.

ive never had anyone comment on my driving unless i cut them off and even then its usually just a shake of the head or the dreaded one finger salute. How do you have the time to chat to all these people? I spose at 40km/h they could just jog along next to you..

epic first post chris

whats the point if they are doing the limit anyway? :P

Well i just warn them anyway. I wouldn't have a clue if they are doing the speed limit or not.

On my way to the RTA today, I got flashed by some uber bogan spec VN Commo (front end missing, stockies on the back).

It was weird because he specifically flashed his lights at me.

Thinking it might be someone I know, I was racking my brain to who the fark I know drives something like that, came up with nothing.

Did my thing at the RTA (quickest RTA visit EVA!).

100m down the road HWP getting fuel.

Commo driver realised that us Car enthusiasts need to look out for each other.

Doubt you're reading this but, thanks.

Irrelevant of car preference, we need to keep an eye out for each other.

I live up through the blue mtns and get flashes off old mate driving the busses regularly. He's 100% spot on too,they're waiting around the corner. Same as the big rigs. I'll warn both these guys as they earn $$ with their licence. Also give modifieds a headsup too as we get picked on a little more over ya bubbles, camrys and 4wd's. Officer dibble tries hard to fault that second radiator out the front but just can't. :dry:

There was a bit on tv last night about facebook pages that warn people where RBT's are in the area.

The news anchors where outraged about it, as were police, saying that it 'encouraged' drink driving.

I think they are reading into it WAY too much.

If your the sort of person who drink-drives, I strongly doubt you would jump on f**kin facebook and see where the police are.. how ridiculous.

Im not an active facebook user, but i would think people "like" these sorts of pages as a joke..

Oncoming Drivers:-

Drunks see the flash too late

P1s swerve to avoid the flash

Narcissists think you're coming onto them

Druggies think, "What was that?"

Manic ppl go faster

Grannies go slower

Cops are vengeful

No I don't flash. Never know who you're going to meet up with these days wink.gif

HAHAHAHAHAHAHAH^ I ALWAYS flash without fail. perhaps even excessively when i've long gone past the hot spot.............:D

    • From my youth: GTi-R clutch change is a massive pain. The gearboxes are fragile? But the car is super cool and I want one 馃槩 
    • Remember this is 1988 tech.
    • Driveline vibration is resolved. I ended up loosening all my engine mount and trans mount bolts, giving it a good shake then retightening everything and it's gone... Let's just say I was surprised that fixed it.  I've been happily driving it around again but unfortunately put zero time into my direct port/constant pressure WMI setup. I'm on vacation next week, so I'll try and finalize it then.  On a different note, I spent all week fuel/ignition mapping 2x 216L V16 engines. Turbo's were burning glycol and we swapped them out for larger units. We also had planned emissions testing on site, so I figured I'd be there the same week to use their instrumentation and massage any emissions issues out if needed. This was a first for me. Fuel management is similar in certain ways to automotive (i.e air density as load variable) but very different in others. It's all PLC based and AFR's are controlled by air and not fuel. They use a control valve between the turbo and air manifold to control pressure which in turn controls AFR's. Due to this, target AFR tables supplied by the OEM are in pressures and not mass which really through me off. They use air pressure vs fuel pressure tables. I also relied on an O2 concentration sensor the emissions team had in the exhaust. Ignition timing was also all over the place and we were losing a fair bit of power. They're now happily sitting at 16-40BTDC depending on load. We were making about 1600kw at 900rpm at 90% load. Engines were running a lot smoother as well.    
    • heh, aint no R32 ever meeting modern targa cage rules unless the driver is veeeery short OP, good luck with the sale, since its already in the land of freedom I'm sure you will find a good buyer.
    • meh, it was a good video, clear about the issue and how he dealt with it. A bit heavy on the RTV and very brave to put an RB in anything without rebuilding it first, but otherwise I thought it was good Dose, I'm not sure that having the pickup forward is a big issue; yes of course the oil could shift under brakes but the sump should never be empty enough for that to be a problem (unless you also have a higher volume oil pump, and that oil can't return from the head to the sump quickly enough)
