  1. Quotey : And it just goes to show that nobody is perfect, six months back there were crowds of people flocking to this workshop in question as they were the best thing since sliced bread and everyone else was sh*t. If I was a snide c*nt I`d point this out to people who called me a mug. It`s interesting when some guys are on their 3rd or 15th tuner praise the virtues of the new bloke and you say: but you said that bout the other guy! I suppose, the day your stop learning it`s all over. There`s always gossip and inuendo flying ( if I don`t hear a new rumour by friday I start one ) I reckon you`d need a thick hide to successfully run a tuning shop.
  2. PERMANENT SPEED CAMERA`s in school zones. Why can`t this happen? They put them permanently elsewhere.
  3. from memory GM shares are worth about 75 cents and Ford shares are 11 bucks.
  4. Look, today I saw 3 radar devices and in excess of 6 police cars involved in fleecing the general public in a probably 5 klms. every holiday period you`ll get some stuffed shirt commisioner claiming that its no good, too many people dieing, idiots wrecking everyones lives doing 3 klm over blah blah what if! No one sped. I`d LOVE to see it, for this easter period if there was not one dollar of revenue raised for the government. it`d cripple the states. Now I don`t blame the cops, I personally don`t want to drag dead kids out of wrecked cars but on the same count I don`t want some fat bastard preaching to me that 5 kph over is causing all the carnage. its inattention, that's the number 1 cause but its hard to legislate against eh? Not to the point where the states and territories could extract a profit from it anyway.
  5. You are not the first person to do exactly what you are doing as I`m sure you know. The best you can do is put it down to experience and put it behind you. You can burn them in the private hell in your mind but it only screws you up. I can only wonder why, as previously stated, this shop has gone from Hero to Zero. Especially when there`s no real secrets in this caper. Most people know who it is. But looking on the bright side, Kent strikes me as decent guy who I`ve only heard good things about. Make sure you get the decal that goes along the bottom of the doors, it`s worth it for that alone..
  6. Quote: where I put down 512rwhp in a Expensive Daewoo 202 turbo on Ultimate and that was good HP back then. FARKIN!
  7. But you`ll be at work today :smilecouncil: I told Kent you`d be eating baked beans on toast untill xmas after you pay his bill. I`m hoping my brake parts and step son arrive today, the rear rotors, RB24 pads will be fitted to the rear and the 4 braided lines lovingly hand made by Howard will be fitted to all four corners and finished off with a thorough fluid flush and bleed. Ribs are still amazingly tender so I need Tyson to do the heavy stuff. After sitting here all week with an internet connection and a Visa Debit I need to be back at work next week so I don`t wanna screw up make the tear worse.
  8. It`d be run in now yeah? Does it have an air cleaner? When its go back for the big tune? We should try to meet up over the weekend, Ben too.
  9. You broke it.. Go listen to some of Spiro`s dyno vids. it sounds unholy, like a WWII plane in a dive.. Could be battery, its been sitting for eleventy weeks.

    Agreed, Spiro. It looks a bit Christmas... Either black, body colour or polished would be noice.
  11. Other day I sent a fairly official looking email ( did it in Office 2007 ) to Zoom Magazine, I understand they are in the same group as Street Fords? Anyway I told them about the event. I contacted Kent from Hi Torque and he expressed interest and promised to broach the subject with his customers. I will not be competing unless there is a good as stock *beep* engine class. However Paul will have some role for me to play on the day. Probably mensroom attendent. There are quite a few people behind this event. I`m hoping it reflects not just what a few big power cars can do, but what the turbo Ford cult has become.
  12. Good news! Word has spread to the Gold Coast, some big name cars will be advised via their tuner, who seemed keen for them to participate.
  13. They`ll use bikes too, it starts tomo, I heard it on the wireless the other day. Like everyone, if I say ANYTHING parked I slow down.
  14. Typhoon Freak would but he`ll be driving his car non stop now he has it back even running in, I can garrantee you it will not stop. I`d love to see it entered. I`ll ask him right now. EDIT!: Teh Freak is IN! Put him down with an asterix as he`ll pay next week. I made him promise. He said he hasn`t spent eleventy million for nothing. I`ve also sent a PM elsewhere regarding another question.....
  15. Tuesday after Easter. lol if I didn`t try to go back on friday and monday and tear it open I`d have been back now. I needed to heal, hopefully my brake parts arrive tomo and I`ll carefully fit it all. It`ll be good Physio.
  16. Suggestion: Could we have an entrants list at the start of this thread like there is for the cruise threads?
  17. Workers comp is teh Awesome!!! Full normal pay including overtime! YAY!!!! farkin :D

    Fpv Watches

    Take the batteries out, they may have sweated and the watches are now fux0r.
  19. I hope Typhoon Freak got his entry in, he is running his car in as I type this. It sounded decent just then on the phone!
  20. 10 US dollars a gram I heard.. You`ll be nice me now, won`t you..
  21. Bugger... No bonus.. Liver good, it`s torn cartilage as originally suspected. However I do have gall stones and they`re worth a bit in Asian crack pot medicine, no? Every cloud has a silver lining.
  22. I`m off for an ultra sound to see if I`ve torn my liver.. If it reveals I`m pregnant I`m spending my baby bonus on a big horsepower increase...
  23. A lot can be said, but not everything is always revealed, Matt. It would be my understanding that Uncle Spiro has more than one iron in the fire.. _Spin_ said mysteriously.
