Yeh - but your still higher up... ready crush poor dan in his charade into oblivion.... your bumper is probably right at his head height too....

Its also not just a matter of YOUR visibility - It doesn't matter if you can see well...(well it does but...) BUT no-one else can see past you due to your height and size...

Hahahaha... Nissan X-trail are girls 4WD's :lol: Nah Xtrails aren the problem. Well they sort of are but its the big 4WD's. Like yesterday I was next to a Nissan Pathfinder (new one) and its wheel arch was the same height as my roof. And the thing is massive! Tell me how that thing is safe around the city.

I reckon they should bring in laws like they have for trucks with 4WD's. Not let them on certain roads and stuff just like how trucks arent allowed on canning hwy coz the lanes are too thin. Same thing should be for 4WD's. They inconvenience everyone else by not being able to turn a corner at decent speed, ppl cant see round them and they kill small children, So I think they should be inconvenienced too.

And have u seen 4WD's try to squeeze into some parking spots? I think shopping centres should have special 4WD parking far away from the entrance and they arent allowed to park anywhere else. Maybe if we alienate them a bit some people will stop buying the stupid things.

Yea my 1200 ute is great on fuel but top speed is sad .. 70ks flatout  :lol:

So let me get this straight Dsturbd, your misses drives a 4WD and uve got a datto that struggles to do 70? That the only cars u's have got? If so I got two words for ya: Public Transport.

Either that or drop a SR, Z18, FJ, or CA18 in the datto :(

Some 2 cents from a slightly insane person. Even if u're driving a normal sedan (like a camry), u prolly won't be able to see a 19 mth old child running behind as they're still a little too short. It might be a little different in that cirumstance as she might have not gone under the wheel, did she?

Yeah, i know how irritating 4wds are and i seriously think they should be kept off-road than on. So i'm in favour of intalling C4 explosives into each and and everyone of them and blowing them up! :P

Mr Scruby u bloody legend!

Its strange that a car enthusiast is praising Harold Scruby.

Scruby advocates that there is no need for cars at all and that everyone should use public transport.

I couldn't care what stance he took on what issue. He is a bloody wanker who has no grip on reality as far as I am concerned. He is the last person I would ever listen too.

If you were unaware of his beliefs and were just praising him purely for his comment on 4wd's then I suppose I understand.

But Duncan is right, you can stereotype performance car drivers just as bad as you stereotype 4wd drivers. Harold Scruby is equally against both.

I was stuck behind an F250 that was going 40 kph down South St the other day AND it was an old man!!! WTF do you need an F250 for when you're old and probably retired?!?!?! And WHY are you doing 40 in a 60?!?!?

However, my old man has a 400 series landcruiser but we lived in the pilbara for 12 years so yeah... :D I learnt to drive in that bloody big tank it wasnt pretty!

But yeah now coming up next to one at a junction or something you'd think they'd at least have the courtesy to roll back from the line a little so us little cars can see past them but NOOOOO!!!

@#$#@# ... my rant... thank you for listening :)

I dont give two hoots if Scruby is the head of a satanic cult who sacraficies cute little baby animals and baths in their blood. Anyone who hates 4WD's is a friend of mine. Altho the C4 sounds like a good outcome for the old geezer. :lol:

    • That's true. However, this problem has started since the tuning. First time with the return journey from the tuning. But yes, the pipe was clogged with dirt and rust. That was certainly due to age
    • Great info @tidi0x  Will definitely be handy for others and maybe me if I decide to keep the shit box H pattern.
    • Bumping this up one last time.... I wanted to follow up on the clutch slave issue. I realized that what the issue comes down to is the pocket is flat milled, and the cylinder does not want rest flat. So in order to mount it correctly you will need to make a spacer for the fingers so the cylinder is floating. I took two plates of aluminum, drilled some holes and was good. I did still need to make the relief cuts in the bell housing, as even with the spacer the bleed section still interferes. The OE bell housing the mounting holes are raised from the housing.       
    • If the event in USA goes ahead will be interesting as it seems the rules will get more cars over here. Apparently the track is laguna seca too. Yeah s15, if I get a the lower dash trims, centre console and change front cross member to standard LCA position will fit clubsprint. See how rules are as i would rather do complete widebody than a bolt on flare to run the 295 with proper clearance.
    • If the car is legal height I can't see it being an issue. Found a thread on reddit that might offer some insight.   I got a ticket from a copper in QLD for my S15 being too low. They had this wheel thing on a stick that they put under the car and it hit my exhaust. Anyhow went to an exhaust shop to get the exhaust tucked up/hung a little higher and I wound the coilovers up a smidge. Don't think I even had to go back to the police station unlike when I got defected for having a carbon bonnet when I brought the S15 from the ACT to QLD and had to replace it and then rock up at a police station and have a yougish female officer who knew nothing about cars confirm that I had changed bonnets. Should have just painted the carbon bonnet yellow to match the rest of the car lol
