Hey 'ol mate' - you threw the first stone when you came in here on your low and ugly horse calling the group and me as a representative of that group 'v-tards' - what do you want, a standing ovation f

I was right, you were wrong, I corrected you and gave you an equally targeted personal insult in return - you cut up rough and bought your cavalry of band-'wagon' fanboys in to save face - and then suggest that I am in some way expected to hold up an expectation that all people who pay a $75 donation to this club must be good blokes and tolerate all fools?

How many other ways do I need to point out you are wrong?

Daleo - empirical evidence refers to a widely accepted viewpoint arrived at by observation of a collection of sources (qualitative). In laypeople terms, if enough people agree on something being right it is generally safe to accept that. I quoted those websites as an example of that information being consistent across a number of sources in line with the definition of the term.

I'm also the only one who has answered the OP's question.

Your move.

My move?

Ok Mat, but I don't recall needing to have your permission.

You are right, Mark did target first; but the only reason you would've bitten back at an insult that clearly wasn't actually directed at an individual, is that you clearly see some truth in it.

As for you being the self appointed leader of the V35 forum; Congratulations on your lofty post, exactly when did the vote happen, and who else was a candidate?

​Your (somewhat delayed) righteous indignation is comical; why would you call someone you've never met; a retard? Seems there's no standard like a double standard.

The inference that Mark needed to purchase (see "bought" in your comment, not brought) support would suggest that I don't actually look at subjects in any subforum I please; because that is my want.

I'm well aware of the definition of Empirical Evidence, thankyou; your condescending tone towards me is completely unnecessary and unwanted.

I was simply pointing out the irony of holding up the webpage of a car importer and an online information source as undeniable proof of your argument. Frankly I still find it completely hilarious that you are saying this.

If in fact you ever had to provide Empirical Evidence for anything; I doubt two unsupported sources would actually cut the proverbial mustard.

I (and doubtless many others) can use the internet to find any information on any subject, to support any argument; real or imagined at any time I choose. It's not a special skill that you have developed, trust me.

To be honest with you Mat, I'm happy to accede to anyone with expertise or knowledge in any area; but when they are as arrogant and unnecessarily insulting as you have been, I'll admit I do tend to climb aboard my horse.

As you've so ably demonstrated; a supposed common interest in cars and a club membership is no guarantee of meeting like minded people.

And as for your final comment; I believe the question was answered almost a day prior to you swaggering in on your rather slow pony; and actually providing any real information.

And even then, the assembled masses had to wait 4 posts, and almost 4 hours before you finally decided to bring the fabled tablets down from the temple mount to set them on the path to true wisdom.

And even then you couldn't manage it without being a bit of a know-it-all.

I'd like to thank you on behalf of all people everywhere for this opportunity to point out to you; what is blindingly obvious to EVERYONE else.

Have a great weekend.

I most certainly will.

As I said - i don't tolerate laziness or fools alike.

Almost everything you have said reflected my exact intentions.

So I'll chalk this up to success.

And to note; I would never appoint myself as a 'leader' - your 'ol mate' and mine did that by implication. Although, the fact that you seem to feel fit to speak on behalf of 'EVERYONE' else would suggest you perhaps have a different opinion of yourself it seems.

Further to that, as of this weekend I don't even own a V-series so my interests in defending a 'community' are nought. But I would never target a collective and refer to them as 'v-tards' in defense of my own lack of intelligence. If my tone smacks of arrogance it's because I share the same dismay at people's lack of ability to seek their own information, or alternatively a penchant for imparting disinformation.

I hope this response is timely enough for you, unfortunately I don't normally spend my days compiling verbose responses on forums; but hey, you bait - I'll bite.

There is a nice red one in the classifieds with leather and sunroof.

I would suggest buying one of the rarer colours - there are far far too many silver ones on the market. Come resale time, a unique colour will present a better sales proposition.

Fair point, but red fades a lot quicker than silver or white will, and these are 10 years old now - plus these cars look super smart in silver or white, even with stock wheels!

But the red one is definitely in my price range, though the kms are pretty high.. I'll have to go have a look.

I wouldn't stress on that too much. Faded red paint is a throwback to the early 90s and single stage paint systems.

Similarly with km's - with any grey import unless you can site deregistration papers it's safer to assume its been wound back. Go by condition of the leather bolsters, steering wheel etc for a more accurate idea of mileage.

A red car with some paint correction and regular maintenance looks amazing!

The white one looks good on paper - kms, features, etc. Though the carbon fibre looks kinda daft.. again, think I better go check it out in person.

Agree with your comment Smokey - assume the odo has been wound back. How hard would it be for someone to do this? Its a digital readout, but where/how is the data captured?

1st car (white) - it is dead easy to 'wind' back the km - there is a guy in Sydney who will do it for $100 - 5 minute job with a laptop. Love the hella flush stickers and stock wheels ... I assume it has been stocked out - I bet it had an 'easy' 2,000km a year life of rice, rice, rice thrashed within an inch of its life.

2nd car (silver) ewwwwww willow interior and beige seats - there is no limit to how much you would vomit just sitting in that car :)

3rd car - who advertises a car without pictures??? also listed as an 'SP' - sorry champ that delineation didn't come out until V36 - I assume they mean 'Premium'. But no pictures????

      And also there were for sale scams and the like. For sale posts need piccies, and not having piccies makes it harder to do a driveby scam.

      And I forgot to add my *** footnote to the above post, which was that the pipework mods would be even more significant than what had to be done for the highflow. So just add that onto the list. Pipework mods are no killer, just made the tasklist longer at a time when extra tasks were not welcome.

      Ah ok, reason I asked was for the sake of not having to upgrade everything if the turbo couldn't be capped.

      pffft! My alignments are starting to take 3-4 weeks each. Bugger overnight - that would be a dream! Overnight is when I leave it on stands with the rear suspension in pieces, hoping I can remember where I was at when I come back to it. I have to set the car up on a level surface so I can get decent camber measurements, then try to set the RUCAs to the right length to get that right. Then I have to put the car somewhere else where I have enough room to set up the bumpsteer gauge (laser, paper, mirror), so I can dial out that. Then I need to go measure camber again because changing the tension arm length affects that also. Then I need to measure toe, and I can't do that to my own satisfaction at home, so I have to put it on an actual aligner. Then I have to go back and fix the camber again, and if that took more than a half a turn, decide if I want to set up the bumpsteer measurements again. I previously had the bumpsteer almost completely banished and then I started changing things again! And that's only the rear end. Not even gotten to talking about the front yet. And this has been going on in the context of me discovering a seized bolt in the LHR FUCA bush at the upright, hence needing total disassembly to replace that bush and the others that were not far away from the same outcome, replacing sphericals in the front end and making a mistake that resulted in needing to do it again, which is only half done right now. It's a selfmade nightmare. Only have self to blame, etc etc. But regardless, I am so complelely unable to utilise the services of a normal wheel aligner that I have no choice. I haven't found a shop in my city that does "race" alignments - and by that I don't mean I want my car to be set up for racing, but the set of adjustments that I have available and that need to be used to do the alignment are the same as you'd find on a race car. I haven't looked everywhere, but there doesn't appear to be the equivalent of the motorsport focused shops that are present in Sydney and Melbourne. And such an alignment would cost $300, and you only want to do it once in a while, and you don't want to find out that you have to replace bushes and bearings and such while you are spending that $300 so you have to come back and spend it again a week later. So I stay living in my self made nightmare for the moment.
