  1. Easy, see those pics of the tail light and head light assemblies Wiggum? As you can see, they're not holding much indicator fluid anymore so it isn't running at its peak efficiency And the other creases in the door and quarter panel are just minor scratches, they add character to the car.
  2. It looks like the bottom of the bumper flexed back and has dented the very bottom of it, just one row of the crinkle about two inches across, dead centre at the very bottom. The car seems to be running fine so hopefully its just cosmetic and will still run fine.
  3. Lol, that is awesome. I still find the Bugatti Veyron is my favourite, that Quad-Turbocharged 8.0L W16 is just insane, it glows red hot during a top speed run. Interesting too that the Veyron is still faster than the Venom GT in 0-100 times, Veyron is 2.46s (Super Sport is faster again) and the Venom GT is 2.7s (fastest seen in testing has been 3 flat, traction has been a recurring issue) despite the Venom GT having a 600kg advantage and an extra 50kw/40nm. I guess in 0-100, nothing replaces pure down low grunt.
  4. Yeah, maybe at least numbers should be swapped with the organiser so if you're missing they can ring you and if you're running late you can ring the organiser. Gary did it for Snowy's Cruise and it was useful on a couple of occasions.
  5. Yeah, I'm working hard on my car for a few weeks, lol. Looks like I might need a new Intercooler...
  6. I swapped to electric when I first started shaving, just didn't like blades. It did take a week for my skin to adjust though. I normally shave 2 or 3 times a week.
  7. Sounds good, only I probably wouldn't be able to do it for a few weeks...
  8. Got home safe eventually
  9. What time are you leaving Heathcote, 8:30pm?
  10. Well, you're username does say 'Im a troll' so I kinda assumed you must be as self confessed troll
  11. I filled it out, disappointed on the missing boobs though...
  12. When you come out of Heathcote Rd, I think the Macca's might be towards Sydney? If its on the south side, I'll be at Macca's, otherwise the Servo or wherever you guys want to meet? I'm leaving Ingleside at 7, GPS says it should be about an hour and 10 minutes.
  13. Livestock? I've never come across livestock on my way down???
  14. Yeah, I was looking at the rear and there's no way it would get up my driveway.
  15. Where'd you buy them all from?
  16. Is this going after more power or just stability and reliability? It doesn't look like those mods would give you more than 10 or 20 extra kw
  17. Lol, I too had reminiscings of Roger Cordia when I first read this thread. You just had to laugh at him, he truly believed the bugs getting caught in his bumper were due to his uber fast launches.
  18. OK. I just thought that because 255 fit on stock 8.5 inch wheels that they'd be too small on 10 inch wheels.
  19. I'll meet you guys at the Heathcote McDonalds.
  20. Thanks. Out of curiosity, how come you're only running 255's? Stock is 245 so I would have thought that with 10 inch rears you'd be up around 275?
  21. I'd contact Ford HQ again, you'll know for sure whether they contacted Ford then.
  22. Shows not all cops are arseholes
  23. What department/area do you work in Corzza?
  24. Is there an easy way to tell HQ from Dealer cars? Seperate question for the tech heads, my grandparents have a Fairmont Ghia which has an LSD standard. Its started developing a knocking noise when you go around corners and the tighter the turn, the louder the knock. I had a drive and at full lock going really slow every time it 'knocks' it sounds like its coming from the rear half of the car. The noise is like when you overtighten a lid on a bottle and it 'clicks' and goes back a thread and you have to retighten it. It's like that over and over again. Am I right in thinking there's an issue with the LSD? It's definitely not steering as I've had that in other cars, you can't feel this through the steering and it happens even on slight corners, it just doesn't 'knock' as often.
  25. My cars stock and I get 14.8/9L/100km at an average speed of 28-29km/h but on the freeway I get 8.7L/100km if I stick to 100 with no accelerating to overtake. At 110 it creeps up to 8.9L/100km and when I overtake quickly it usually results in something low 9ish over 700km.
