  1. And you should be really proud of making a quick buck eh?
  2. Thanks for raising my blood pressure again. I reckon we will get Gran Tourismo 5 before this
  3. Very much looking forward to having a real noise under the right foot with the V8 rather than a vaccum cleaner with a bad cold.
  4. Looking at the info on car of the future on V8 supercar site it looks like they are going even further away. Anyway, someone posted up 'spy' pics of the new GS on FForums. Stipe package is hideous (personal opinion) FPV give us what looks likely to be the best motor we have ever had in Australia - then ruined the great look of the FG's in both GS with the stripe package on the bonnet, and GT with the new wheels (bleurgh)
  5. ....and if you were in the states then I guess this ruling would cover you for 'hacking' it now since sct turned it off - allow computer owners to bypass the need for external security devices called dongles if the dongle no longer works and cannot be replaced.

  6. More 18 by 9.5 starcorps on the back. Needs to be lowered, but have to do the guards first.
  7. Can see a big shareholders dividend coming up from this
  8. So..... its been a couple of weeks now since the xscam1 boxes got turned off with the cookie offering of "but the xscam3 can do ZF in a couple of weeks"..... Havent heard anything more about that have we? Been digging around a bit and cant find a peep about it....... Or am I just being old and cynical?
  9. Yeah just added myself in over there since its back up. Forecast is sunny and 16 for next wednesday at this stage so sounds perfect
  10. Gday Leo, Took the liberty of tack your name on the extras list, sure to be a few people pull out last minute.
  11. Ive got a BF ZF with about the same power as you (306). I was also getting from 2.1 to 2.3 on street tyres. Got a 1.8 first time on MT's but had torque tag issues. That was just dialing it up to 1800ish on the brakes and going but the box didnt like it. Got the tags removed, but blew the flex plate when I went back to try it again! Feels like it wouldnt get that much better, maybe a 1.7 with a perfect launch with our power levels.
  12. Sounds like you havent been running it in hard enough!
  13. Mine did start single wheeling when it was low from a slow leak, and filling it up was fine again...but that was constant not just driveways
  14. Sooking it, have to pick up the missus. Have a good run and hope the rain holds off!
  15. Cheers, spot on with that advice too. Pity its cancelled thanks to the weather!
  16. Gday Folks, Anyone know if there is an issue with accompanied kids being signed in for the crew pass? Want to go out there and race tonight, and thinking of taking the youngster out to get them interested, but dont want them and the ball and chain to be stuck on the hill while Im running. Car isnt set up to go well tonight, but dont think it will be getting beaten by too many holdens to give the wrong impression to young minds hehehe
  17. How not to do burnouts..... YouTube - Burnout Fail YouTube - Dodge Burnout Fail
  18. Sounds good, count me in! (assuming I dont blow the rear end out of the car at WSID the night before now the torque tags are taken out)
  19. Just did mine (Apparently the bathtub ISNT the place to clean a K&N......phhhut chicks what would they know) Only 2,000km since I did it and I didnt drive till the air was looking clearer yesterday. Bottom of the bath looked like mud within seconds.
  20. .........One thing is for certain: there is no stopping them; the ants will soon be here. And I for one welcome our new ...insect overlords. Turns out hollywood lied. Tom Cruise is on the aliens side. Was a great red dawn before settling into the current orange filth. I used it as an excuse to not to go work as I dont want my baby to suck up lots of orange dust!
  21. Had the p zero neros before and they were pretty good for handling and lasted decently enough. Only complaint was when they got down to about 40% on the back there was zero traction all of a sudden. I will say they were very predictable the way they let go all the way thru though so I was very happy with them. (But wanted to buy the proxes next before ending up with the Kuhmos)
  22. Ye gads..... No T/phoon is ridiculous. I saw it in the news agent at lunch and picked it up to see which T/F6 was in it....pathetic. I knew herrods would be there when I saw xr8 mentioned......sigh. I spent a piddly 2.5k on my BF T and get 12.3 on cheap street tyres......how in gods name they did really think the ones picked were any good? They need to start sealing motor and wheels in plastic bags otherwise I get to keep on seeing there is no point in buying it becuase I can browse to see its crap first.
  23. Arrive, whinge how cold it is and go to Crown Drink at crown and be merry. Go outside and watch the gas jets go off at night and enjoy the warmth before whinging about it being cold! Go to MG's (But comment about how good the turbo would like the cold air there so you dont upset the missus before you get into MG's) Repeat
  24. Im running 306.5 on CVs dyno and I ran 114mph on my first (and only) pass that night
  25. After seeing people doing stupid stuff everyday on the road when they are on the phone or buggering around with it all off in a different world rather than driving then I dont see why they shouldnt be enforcing that a LOT more than 5km/h over the limit. But Im one of those people that hates fog lights too.
