Mugabetown - Whoretownin' At It's Worst.


Recommended Posts

Yeah, maybe I'll just always leave my car parked in the garage, then nothing can happen to it

:P

Seems to be working so far ;)

I use my car every week - just saying

I use mine daily.... Just saying... :P And it only breaks when I let apprentices touch it... :whistling:

I think this would have scared the crap out of me... I already thought I had to sleep with ALL the toys on the bed so they didn't feel left out let along if they actually looked like they did shit during the night... These kids will either have killer imaginations or be petrified of their toys...

cAndy! The only place I seem to be able to get an x181 is online. Are they that good that I can take the risk without trying one out?

Gimme a sec. There may be a current equivalent. The x181 is from the summer before last

Il be there on Sunday mate

Does happy laps technically count? It is taking to the track... But not proper taking it to the track... I would do happy Laps but not a proper track day, at least not in my car until she has some work done...

If you are prepared to accept the consequences of track days - then by all means

Happy laps also doesn't count :P

your words sMartie 'come out to the track ya fairy!'

Happy Laps is not just out to the track but on track!

Didn't have any issues with it, until it became difficult to buy.

I went to superlap a few years ago and one of the royal purple promo girls scarred me for life, it was horrible to see... So, so, horrible!!! Should not have worn that outfit and to make matters worse, should not have gone commando in that outfit! I pointed it out to the boys to share the burden and I think they were also scarred for life... The other one on the other hand could have sold it to me if it wasn't for her oompa looma sidekick... That right there is what I am reminded of every time I see royal purple...

Did you just turn the topic onto cricket bats?

It let me down in major ways on several occasions, Royal purple on the other hand never has. The year I went, i think 2012? One of the royal purple girls was amazing, my god the things the things I would be willing to do with her! lol

OK apparently the x181 500s is available at Greg Chappell Albion. the 500 or 700 range is about what you should be going for in Grey Nicks. The Powerbow gen X has a very similar look to it and would be a good substitute, the matrix is pretty similar too but looks a little less bottom heavy.

If you are feeling strong check out the Colossus, it reads heavy but the pick up is surprisingly good

I was at GC Albion yesterday, they only had the x181 in small mens and below sizes.

I might check out the Powerbow gen X for weights then order the x181 :)

Hahaha yeah It was 2010 I think we went, maybe 2011! One was smoking hot the other was horrible, she bought the team down :sick:

My car isn't even close to set up enough to do a "proper" track day, maybe after I get some suspension work done I might, at least then it will handle nicely and well... Less like a boat :) Happy laps on the other hand will be done on Sunday in her... I would take Zane's car out to a proper track day but he isn't happy with the setup at the moment so more than likely wouldn't let me :(

If happy laps counts then Martin is doing a track day on Sunday :P hahaha

A reliable source tells me the X181 and the Powerbow gen X are in fact the same shape. So a long sweet spot starting low and heading up to traditional centre. They are however scalloped to make them a little lighter, meaning if you hit off center you lose some power. The Matrix has a similar length middle but is not scalloped and therefore a little heavier but is more forgiving if you get one off center. I would give both a go, if you can live with the extra weight on the matrix it may be the go, if anything I wish my bat was less scalloped.

    • Yep, that was one of the things we learned fast in the past with our MX5. When you drive with the top down, you are effectively standing out in the sun, 100% of the time, and not getting in any shade (because roads aren't shaded generally!). Just like standing out in the middle of a field on a sunny 27C day is a bit of a bad plan, so is sitting in a MX5 without sun protection.
    • I also just ordered some Frankenstein bolts and side mounts to fit a hard top Just in case I do find one, basically so it doesn't need to be fixed to the car with only the front latch.......and then gaffa tape to keep it in place for the RTN journey from wherever I get it
    • If your temps are fine now, you probably won't have any issues with where your vents are as they don't look right up at the windscreens high pressure area, so any differences when giving it the beans for extended happy laps would be minimal, but, they should vent heaps when stuck in traffic  Much like how that reverse cowl on my SS let "visible" heat out when stationary, but, because it was basically at the windscreen my coolant temps on the Hwy actually raised because air was being fed into it at speed (110kph), to only come back down to around 90° when I got off the Hwy And your 100% correct about the NC currently not needing vents, but, if I was to add a turbo, and a oil cooler and intercooler in front of the condenserand radiator, and then take it to the track???? It is apparently a recommend requirement if I don't want to worry about coolant or oil temp issues, but, any of the above are possible scenarios, over time As it sits now, with the triple pass radiator and stock air conditioning system, I have absolutely no issues with either temps or air conditioning efficiency, I've been basically daily driving thie car for the last month, both on the Hwy, and peak hour, bumper to bumper traffic, but, that's pretty much expected from basically a standard engine  Talking about no issues daily driving, it was 39° the other day and I was sitting in bumper to bumper traffic on the M5 and then M7, with the top down, and with the air conditioning blowing nice cold air on my feet, balls, and face, well, there was one issue, my head and arms got pretty sun burnt Note to self: leave a hat and sunscreen in the car for such days 🤣
    • I would agree, unless you need something specific to the HV motor/battery side repaired or investigated, any mechanic will be able to perform normal services, but if you prefer, maybe look for a mechanic who regularly services/repairs Nissans, the VQ engines are pretty common in the Nissan lineup.  Sorry, I can't make any suggestions, I don't live in Vic.
    • Some of them keep working fine. 9 out of 10 of them end up causing an absolute misery bleeding the system and get thrown on the workshop floor in a tantrum and never thought about again because they were never really needed and just added crap to the car that we could have done without. Same-same with HICAS, A-LSD, and various other stupidities that over eager 10x engineers thought we had to have.
