two times today, i got cut off by a clown in a citroen. These are always older drivers, and they think just because they own a french built car, they automaticaly have the right to be typically arrogant to other road users, and today wasnt the first time either. :(

Im amazed those citroens and older peugots are still driving around in one piece, the're shocking design quality shouldnt have enabled them to release these vehicles out of the factory, they have nothing to lose by hitting other cars.

Sorry about the rant, guys please take care when passing a citroen, they are usually in the right hand lane, going minimum 10k's under the limit.

;):):)

The newer ones are good quality though aren't they?

I'm not sure about people who drive french cars but I hate people who go slow in the right lane. Some people think that cos they are doing 111kph and the other traffic is doing 110 they have a right to sit in the fast lane. Its a fast lane. Your supposed to be speeding. Its for people like me with 10 points left to loose. Or others with less points who like to live on the edge.

Sorry about my rant. But it gives me the sh1ts especially since I gotta go up the freeway to get to work. Pain in the arse when I'm running late and some wanker is puttin along in the fast lane.

Not necessarily, my sister drives an 02 citroen xsara 'sportif' :lol:

It's a joke of a car, no more than 3 years old and it's already got so many problems, even though it gets serviced regularly.

Seems like it's only one person. Good to see other SAU members have taken the correct stance!

Take it easy. Show some sort of maturity, and chill.

There are shit drivers in all cars. Funnily enough I find that a shitload of them are young drivers in Skylines.

maturity? as mature as the 70 year old c**t who ran me off the road yesterday arvo and caused me lock up me front wheels, almost f**king them up?

He didnt even see what he done! just kept going. I dont care how old he was, if he was standing in front of me i would have broken his hip!!

old people should be tested regualry to see if they can:

1: actually see the road and other cars

2: think and react quick enough in an emregency

3: TURN THEIR FREAKING HEADS TO SEE IF THERE IS A CAR NEXT TO THEM!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I agree that our licensing should be more rigorously tested, both initially and on an ongoing basis (say every 2 years)

hey all,

i got a mate who works at nissan/renault,  who says they're the biggest buckets of shit on the road, not to mention the ugliest, the new ones just look wrong.

loved the pics of that clio sport burning. thanks for the wallpaper...

well he must know then. working at nissan/renault and all he's likely to know everything...

well i'm just passing on what i've been told. he is the one who has to pull them apart and put em back together. apparently the windscreen wipers spin the wrong way, the indicator/wiper stalks are on the wrong side and just little stupid things like that, yes i know it is european, but every other company changes these before selling them

well he must know then. working at nissan/renault and all he's likely to know everything...

...my brother's, cousin's, uncle's, dad works for Ferrari and he reckons they are crappy. He now hates the colour red forever.

Co-incidence?

Strange ... Poeple that live in glass houses shouldn't throw stones you know

Ask most drivers on the road and they'll say the biggest d!ckheads out there drive 4wds and crapanesse imports .... Usually some little kid driving trying in vain to prove there faster than everyone else on the road. They do keep neon companies and blow off valve companies in business though (even when it's not turbo'd :P :lol: )

The most unreliable car we have ever had in the family was an old skyline ... spent more time having diffs and work done to it..... On the plus side they handle so poorly most of 'em seem to end up wrapped around a variety of trees and power poles ... Just as well they seem to crash well, 'cos there'd be lots of brainless kids and men going through mid aged crisis's out there killing themselves :D:(

I must admit, I'm extremelly impressed ... You did spell Citroen and Peugeot correctly ... even I would have stuggled doing that ... I can tell your a closet enthusiest that's dying to get one ... Maybe oneday, if your really lucky you'll own one :)

seeya,

    • had 4 weeks off over xmas and well did some stuff to the shed and BRZ, well short of is I don't work full time in supercars anymore as of yesterday.........
    • Did you get any down time over Christmas, or have you had any since to play with this? Or have you given up and are trying to get yourself a second hand V8SC instead?
    • A random thought I had just before I hit "Submit on this post". If brake fluid, in a container in my garage that has never been opened goes bad after 18 months, why can I leave it in my car for 24 months in an "unsealed container"... Secondly, some other digging, and brake fluid manufacturers seem to be saying 5 year shelf life... Me thinks there line on 18 months for an unsealed bottle is pretty much horse shit marketing spin. Kind of like how if you drive a car and don't run a turbo timer your turbo and motor will die horribly...   Where I started on this though... Someone (me) started down a bit of a rabbit hole, I don't quite have the proper equipment to do Equilibrium Reflux boiling per the proper test standards. I did a little digging on YouTube, and this was the first video I found on someone attempting to "just boil it". This video isn't overly scientific, as we don't have a known reference for his test either. Inaccuracy in his equipment could have him reaching the 460 to 470f boiling point range in reality. In the video, using a laser temp gun, he claims his Dot3 that's been open in his florida garage for over a year gets to about 420 to 430 fahrenheit (215 to 221c) Doing some googling, I located an MSDS for that specific oil, and from new, it claims a dry boiling point of 460 to 470f. Unfortunately they don't list a wet boiling point for us to see how far it degraded toward its "wet" point. While watching it I was thinking "I wonder what the flash point is..." turns out its only 480f for that specific brake fluid....   As for testing the oil's resistance, I might not be able to accurately do that unfortunately. Resistance level will be quite a LOT higher than my system can read I suspect based on some research. However, I might be able to do it by measuring the current when I apply a specific voltage. I won't have an actual water % value, but I'll have some values I can compare between the multitude of fluids. I'll run some vague calculations later and see if I should be able to read any reliable amount of current. These calcs will be based on some values I've found for other oils, and see how close I'll need my terminals together. From memory I can get down to 1pA accuracy on the DMM. I don't think my IOT Power Tester has any better resolution.    
    • No, with a twin plate clutch flywheels and clutch pressure plate/friction disks go together. Only clutch where that isn't the case is the Uniclutch but they currently don't make a pull version for the Getrag R34, just some other cars. Personally the flywheel is as light as I'd want it to be. It already drops revs faster than I want to shift normally and I blip the throttle again to rev match on upshifts.
    • Are there any other lighter flywheels that can be used with nismo coppermix twinplate system? Id like to gave the revs pick up faster than oem
