Soaking myself in scotch in the Sing lounge so I can sleep to minimise the lag!

Need some BBS assembly when I get back and get the exhaust up higher (going to be a prick as will have to double (at least) flange the centre section to chop some out of the dumpipes (damn HKS!).

Hope to be able to make Garage Cafe to meet y'all.

my jacket's white/black i'd take the yellow with black rims

Yeah! Would look good.

Mate has a white/black speed tripple and white/green kwaka coloured leathers and a kwaka coloured helmet.... I know triumph <> kwaka but looks so cool. On the side I'd love to do a kawasaki green coloured car at some stage... I think a new focus RS (which already looks so cool in metallic green) would look good with a base green.... anyway I am rambling and must get back to scotch

PS - definately better with yellow with black rims

Yeah true, the different shade ruin the look.

But if done right, it's all good!

Going from your sig... SHITE! That's a long wait!

Should have just bought the Toyota version.

I know you hate the sales people at Toyota but could you have gone to another Toyota dealer?

I'm totally cool with the wait, I'm saving to pay for the car outright. And in the end I liked the Subaru more and the wait for the Toyota was only marginally less (possibly...), so the Subie won out for me.

The few days before the wkend looked like it would have been great weather to take out your motorbikes... jelly as usual.

In standard news, nfi how to proceed with eng question... arts translation homework it is!

    • 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.

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.
