    Saw an RS4 parked in the City yesterday and they sure look the BIZ..........I want one Reminded myself, whilst walking away that at least it would be watching my tailights (yeh yeh I know in straight line) which was consolation of sorts. Good result for the Phoon although we are fickle fu*king lot aren't we. Last week we thought the mags were full of sh*t.
  3. So the dipsy blond cruising in the right hand lane whilst talking on the mobile will lose 1/2 her points in one go. Sounds good to me
  4. Stop it already your making me cry. If Steve can't organise a cruise or get together that's interesting enough for people to want to attend then he's obviously no good at it in which case I say good riddens Only Problem is WA only has a relatively small member base compared to our Eastern States counterparts which makes it hard to get the numbers to participate. This will improve over time. So Steve put your Dummy back in give it another go in the New Year as your efforts are appreciated if not always rewarded
  5. Thanks Shano. I know they are dangerous but so are what we do on 2 wheels as well.I will respect it like I do road bikes and riding on the road.A world of hurt out there ← Good lad. Don't get me wrong though Daz, would be a little fun......... Mate, I am sorry we got our weekends screwed up last time, but I am keen to do a Blackduck run with you - and anyone else that wants in of course! ← Going on the 9th of Dec for the weekend.Hoping I have the quad by then but if I dont I will take the WR 450F.I hope my arm holds up PM me if your intrested ← Hows the Raptor going? Also interested in your comments as to why you thought the 700 was a safer bike to ride than the 400
  6. I here the George Forman is the way to go EDIT Sorry did'nt read the original post Go silver and contact The Meshman, he's a forum member and a good and reliable guy to deal with.
  7. Well after ignoring (well more chosing to disregard rather than ignore) sound and sensible advice, I outlayed $5,500 for 3 Chinese quads. Just could'nt justify spending 5 times that on the "proper" jobbies. In short I now have a new hobby, namely MOTOR BIKE MECHANIC In four weeks of use I have had to replace 2 broken chains, 1 throttle cable, a large section of plastic faring, fix a leaking petrol tank, recharge flat batterys, remove several broken cosmetic appendages and retighten / replace 175 nuts and bolts. So in summary, as warned the Bikes are and should be stayed well clear of, unless you are happy to spend your days searching replacement parts and nights putting them back together. On a positive note after spending a total of 4 fault free hours exploring the surrounding bushland with my two sons and seeing their smiling faces after conquering a few"Gigantic and Awesome" Hillclimbs. (their assessment) I could almost say it's been worth the grief and financial outlay.........almost. I'll let you know how things are going in a few months .............Oh and Daddy's got the bug and is seriously considering getting a 450 Raptor
  8. I wish she'd stop looking at me like that, I've got things to do
  9. Someone of the Female persuasion driving a 340+rwkw T..........I'm impressed. Unless I've jumped to the wrong conclusion about the name in which case I'm impreesed anyways just not as much
  10. Or maybe it was and it just had loose manifold bolts
  11. Only fifteen people were killed in the making of this video No wonder that part of the world is F%#cked if that's how much they value life. Hows the guy that was hit when standing in the middle of the road

    New Toy

    Alright you've talked me into it, I'm off to Stanbridges. Kids will have to make do with some stocking fillers this year and perhaps a new chain / spare nuts and bolts for their POS chinese quads Rang them up and they told me the "Ocean Resue" is the one to start with as it's easier than the Night Ranger II (twin rotor thingy's and a rear rotor that doesn't do anything ). $185 as per the NR II. Want to start off easy but be a little bit challenged so is the NRII the one to get?? Is it worth buying a spare battery and a few spares and if so what should I get.
  13. Can't help with the cooling issue but I recon you should consider donating your car to the Ford Museum as testament to just how much abuse ( by normal standards) these F6 thingy's can take
  14. Can't say I can tell much of a difference regardless of what I use however have always found the maguires stuff best of the mainsteam products. The secret is to find a sealant / wax that protects the paint surface for longest possible time. This way just washing with water brings the car back to a just polished / waxed finish. Check out waxit.com.au. The owner put me onto Poorboy products (Polish and Sealant) which are reasonably priced and definately protect the car longer than anything from the meguires range.
  15. My BF T has done that a few times now. Stop the car and turn it off, but after a short dealy like 2 seconds the fans startup and run for a few minutes. Why dont the T's get Turbo timers? ← Cause they have sh*t handbrakes. Scotty ← Nice one
  16. Must be a long line of potential customers looking for a car that can tow a plane Who'd name a car Toe Rag anyways
  17. Surprising just how many of you lot watch the show given it's such crap. Whats the big deal anyway, so what if PB was a wife beater sounds like she deserved the odd good beating anyway
  18. The one under the car mate, the one on the engine bay won't rattle
  19. Yep good chance it's the heatshield from memory mine lasted all of 6mths from new. Either way not going to cost you much to get your local exhaust / workshop to stick it on a hoist for a look see.
  20. I would have thought alot of customed tuned "T"s would be making peak boost closer to 2500 than +3000rpm. From memory mine peaks @ 2600rpm (14psi and 750nm) with a max rwkw of around a miserly 255.
  21. Post your dyno sheets showing boost and I'm sure you'll get some worthwhile feedback
  22. You're probably right, but hey nothing like taking risks and living life on a razors edge.
  23. Mine do exactly the same, bloody annoying. Ford and FPV know about it and were replacing the rotors originally, so my service dealer tells me, but then when I took mine in all they would do was machine the rotors due to the amount of money it was costing them. 1 month after machining, it came back again. Now the dealers have been told they are to do nothing about it, so bad luck. Seems that it was costing a fortune under warranty so they now reject it. ← Wrong answer as that gives me no joy at all Coupled with the shoop shoop handbrake noise the car sounds like a fukin mouse symphony
  24. After 6 months of running PBR upgraded brakes they have started to squeel (when coming to a stop) Can anyone enlighten me as to what has caused this sudden onset of unwanted noise and if there is anything I can do about it?
