Jumped into the shower once and looked up and was a HUGE huntsman on the roof, anyways kept my eye on it and the ****ING thing fell off the roof, ran through the house naked and into my room and wouldnt come out.

:cheers: :bahaha:

When I lived in brisbane we were playing hide and go seek at my dads house, I remember running around the side of the house straight into a spider web.. had some big long legged spider stuck on my face.. all I remember was running around the back yard screaming and trying to rip my face off :Oops:

Also at my mums place in brisbane, I woke up covered in a spider web, big fat spider just kicking back on my chest, and the ceiling was covered in baby spiders that had hatched over night.. I froze up and could move could yell out for some one.. luckly a couple seconds later my mum walked past my door and saw what was going on and ripped me out of my bed.. so ever since that day I havent been able to look at a picture of a spider without getting a chill up my spine.. so I would say I have eaten more than 8 spiders in my life... probably more than 8 spiders in one night!!

yeah this thread is hell funny.

I have a spider story aswell. This happened in my daily driver a VL commodore. It was a bout 3 weeks after my schoolies, and as everyone knows the time between schoolies and starting uni is party central, was the best 3 months or so of my life. Went to a party on monday night, my friends and I met these chicks who were going to be staying at Stradbroke Is for a week. They invited us to come stay with them.

On the tues we were running late (hungover something chronic) at my mates place packing all out shit into his car, I move mine out onto the street, get my stuff out of the boot and load it ino the car, as I turn back I see something "fall" from the tree above my car into the boot. When I go over to shut the boot, I see a ****off big Huntsman (a common trend it seems) sitting on the carpet in my boot. So what do I do??? shit myself and jump a few feet back, The boys are yelling at me to get in the car cause we are late blah blah.

In a moment of indecision, I say **** that spider shit too hungover to deal with it now, we are late and I hate spiders, don't wanna keep the chicks waiting. So I stupidly slam the boot shut thinking that it couldn't get anywhere now could it???

Came back 5-6 days later. Totally forgot about the spider...until I jumped into my car. The inside was completely covered in web. Between the front and back seets from the roof to the seats, seats to windscreen, it was all a massive web. I freaked. There was no way I was getting back in the car. Mates dad came out/half the street did aswell. Cleaned out all the web and told me that it had probably just ****ed off by now and not to worry. One mate had to get home, and I had to drive him. He was not scared of spiders and told me that he saw it run out of the car earlier *coughs bullshit under my breath* . I finally got into the car. everything was sweet as until we stopped at an intersection.

I felt something like a piece of string dangling against my hand/forearm. Thought nothing of it for a second then freaked cause I knew what it was without even looking at my arm (cause I didn't wanna see it sitting there). Problem was I really lost it, in the middle of an intersection, The spider had crawled up the steering collum and jumped onto my arm. When I felt it there I threw my arm up and the spider hit the roof and landed on my back (cause I was diving out of the car). I did the full "man on fire drop and roll" kinda thing. I was screaming and doing army rolls across the intersection trying to get the ****en thing off me. Stood up and started slapping to my head and generally trying to pull out my hair/face off.

People have lost it at the other side of the intersection, everyone is pissing themselves one guy kicked his door open and was rolling on the ground laughing kinda trying to do my army roll thing...smart ass.

Others are coming over to me to see WTF is going on. Meanwhile the light has gone green and my mate is trying to get me back in the car. ****ed if I was getting back in. Told him to take his lying spider loving ass home in my car and I would sit there till his bro came and picked me up in his parents car.

One of the most embarrassing days of my life.

oh man... HUGE HUNTSMAN LURKING IN MY ENGINE BAY.

saw it on the bonnet and crawl into the engine bay when i was walking to my car at a friends place. we both started crying like little girls. after gathering much courage i jumped into the car ready to cane it at fullboost and hopefully burn the spider somewhere in the engine bay. panting and crying i boot the car down the street and BANG, iintercooler pipe blew off. i was about 500m from my friends house on the main road, i call him out and we flag down another car to help us open the bonnet because of the lurking spider. sure enough, open the bonnet and its sitting on the latch and runs down behind the front mount. we scream like girls. we look like idiots, on the side of the road with hazards on, people trying to overtake while were poking at the front mount with a 3m long branch... the guy that helps me is so nice he even unscrews my front bar for me and sure enuff its sitting right next to the disconnected IC pipe. finally flick it onto the floor, put the pipe back on, bolt the front bar on, close the bonnet and have the most insecure drive home.

waxxing my car 2 days later and theres a fat huntsman on the front bar. i just cried, same one or different? im not sure. haven't driven the skyline for 2 weeks, forced to drive the supra. i bet theyre even inside the car having cralwed thru the grommet in firewall or vents. I HATE SPIDERS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

    • Yeah 4wd (boosted) has a recess in the firewall for the booster, and 2wd is flat - the example in the link shows the flat surface. When you deleted the booster, did you just attach the factory slave cylinder directly to the recess in the firewall with no adaption?  
    • Yes, but no. You need to keep the mating surfaces bare (ie the flat faces where the caliper and upright pads touch the dogbone) and also the internal threads will remain bare (unless there are no internal threads - do they use nuts on all the bolts?). So you can slow down obvious external corrosion, but not all of it. Anodising would be required to provide decent protection to the alloy, but I'm not actually sure if you should anodise something that is all about the strength. Anodising does reduce strength significantly. Like, up to 50% on some alloys for high thickness coating.
    • Thanks   does painting on aluminium work or stop them from corroding?
    • 'Sgot nothing to do with them being Japanese. The climate in the north of Japan has similarities to the UK - the cars are made in the knowledge that they have snow and salt, and they rot there. Cars made in the US rot like buggery in the US. British cars have always rotted regardless of the weather. They will rot indoors in a climate controlled bubble! The brackets are not unsafe yet, but they will get that way. They may well corrode where the bolt threads are in contact and the bolts could just jump out without warning.
    • So unsafe would you say now?   little bit of has come off, guess road salt is a nightmare for Japanese car. Mx5 here have a well known issue or rotting
