Guys with cars n houses never spend any money on their house unless its neccessary!

but.. on that note i want my house to look as good as possible too..

Wot y'all up to?

Richie - whining coming from back of car under acceleration usually means ur diff is on its way out

it doesnt whine below 120 tho... i dunno.. more money...

my car had the sopiler removed and then the holes welded up and painted... got to take it back tho cause the wanker didnt match the colour properly...

i like that air freshener that smells like new car!

nothing going on today, i think that my day is getting worse. i was thinking that it miht be the diff but i was hoping that it might just be a wheel bearing.

once you work in a caryard for 3 years - your over the new car smell haha.

hey Ross :)

My car still vibrates the wheel badly at 130km an hour!! (yes wheels have been balnced and aligned etc) its funny cos you'll let it drop back to 128 and it'll stop but as soon as it hits 130km the left front wheel starts vibrating first ..... then push it to 135km/hr and they all start joining in :)

thats no good!!

i wouldnt have a clue what that could be, maye your rotors are a little warped?

i know where i might have seen your car before, like before you had it... i am pretty sure that when i used to live in east freo the car used to visit next door to where i lived.

if my rotors were warped wouldnt they said something to me when they took them off and were machining them etc ?

possibly Richie .... but my cars a bit like a relationship - you like to live under the illusion that they havent had any lovers before you :)

yeah - thats what we thought mine were ..... my tyres had the worst eggs in them co si drove around for so long with phucked shockies .... so about a month ago i got new tyres :) .... so they are definately better!! But still cant get rid of the 130+ vibration .... which is no good .... i guess it keeps me on the good side of the law but still ruins fun cos my car steering wheel starts going crazy and you feel like you aint got as much control as you should over the car - so i usually back off once i hit that.

    • ADHD in all form isn't about "can focus, or can't focus" or is hyper active or isn't etc.   It's all a dysregulation. Either time feels to be stationary, or time just vanishes in a split second. We are either under focussed on the task at hand (as we're over focussed on our surroundings) or we have no idea an atomic bomb went off beside us as we're so hyper focussed and locked in on things.   Not to mention the rapid fire thought process. What it takes a "normal" process to think up a solution to a problem, ADHD will be able to give you 5 different ways to solve the problem, and the pros and cons of each. While we can be highly impulsive and lack the ability to "control ourselves" we can also become paralysed with the inability to make a decision for ourselves. While most of us have an OCD like requirement for perfection, we lack the ability often to remain focussed to get things to a perfect state. Those with undiagnosed ADHD as adults, can often find the last part actually stops them ever attempting to do things that they have the ability to do, as the reasoning is often "if I can't do it perfectly, it's not worth doing"   As for projects... Ha ha ha, I still need to take the other half of my wall trim down in the Fiance's office so I can paint it. Need to finish digging and running the back yard drains, my R33, getting the Ninja bike registered (now being sold), the moped project, fixing either of the lawn mowers so they're reliable, along with a myriad of other things.   It's why I've been going through lately and just being brutal and clearing projects off that I won't actually ever complete. IE, moped will go to the tip, or be given away, bike is being sold, Subaru project being sold, some parts for other projects given away. Or I've been making myself focus on one thing at a time, by ticking off the smallest quickest ones first.   There's also a reason by our mid twenties we seem to be "know it alls", as we've all been down some of the weirdest and oddest rabbit holes when you follow the dopamine trail. It's often also why we're more a jack of all trades, but not a master of one.   However, pretty much all of my hobby projects, in one way or another, all come back around to automotive. That's my zen area.
    • Remember reading about this not too long ago. been for sale for a long time  this is like when the wife says you need to sell the car so you put it up for a ridiculous price no one will pay
    • You are perhaps suggesting that it is not a super car? Well....it's not an AU.
    • Dropped the MX5 of this morning to get the hardtop colour matched and some PDR done, they are also going to give it a buff to remove some "stubborn" swirl marks and light scratches in the clear coat Over the last few months the poor little thing has copped some shopping centre car park abuse, I try to not park in them, but hitting Westfield's a few times over the last few months has taken its toll, nothing really bad, but enough of a trigger for a "while we're in there" thingie  Once it's back and all the one colour, with a few dents and mark's removed I'll give some of these products a go and see what they're like
