  1. Same as Ninka said. I am no guru, but I can get some stuff fixed and reprogram the damn digital/analog timer on it if need be. What's wrong with the retic? sprung a leak?
  2. So if the ball does start rolling now, when would the track day be booked in for? In a months time? I am assumg that there is a queue of sorts to get the day booked. Do we have sufficient numbers as well? Also I am happy to put a deposit down to get my place. are commonwh%&es allowed to come along?
  3. 350-400km per tank? Far out guys you do have a lead foot. I am getting between 500-600km a tank. Average fuel consumption is 12.6l/100km for city driving for me. Every so often I do give her a boot full to enjoy the drive home... keep in mind no freeway driving recently.
  4. ROTFLOL. I see I am not the onlynone in this predicament. I already own a shotgun and I have warned my 30 month old daughter that she better behave or else.
  5. Hahahaha only cash for baby seat? You gonna be a dad soon? Anyways if it is $150, then consider me in. if cams license is $20-40 I can handle it. I was considering attending themuch ahg day, but this will be much more fun.
  6. I would love to come down, but being stock I think I would be to embaressed with my times. I've been down a few times back in the day when I had the cbr and did 11.04 PB. Has anyone seen a manual xr6t down there before? I am tempted to test the launch control though. Would the launch control cope if I were to get a tune done to 300rwkw?
  7. Seems to be alot of grammar police out there. is it double demerit points as well?
  8. James, if you go, you wont be alone. My car is standard as well. no mods. I have the helmut and the gloves. The harness and CAMS license may be an issue. I am interested and Keen, but this does depend on cost and if the CAMS license is hard to get.
  9. Omg, I have been tortured for life. sh*tty weather. then it was alcholics anonymous. then I was left for dead last cause my stock standard FG couldn't keep. I get left behind and stuck behind cops, so I couldn't play catch up till about roe highway. it was a sh*tty night. I won't be attending any more cruises until I beef up my car next year... Nah it was awesome. I enjoyed the night so much. I think it was Jim I was talking to that provided so much info on upgrades n stuff. thumbs up and thank you. When it comes to names, I am terrible with that stuff. takes me a few goes to remember a name. My cousin enjoyed it so much that he has already found a long list of parts on ebay to buy so we can install them and then get a custom tune done by xft, if Simon will take the job. yeah my cuz is a mechanic and I am sure it would keep him busy and happy if we got the stuff installed ourselves. :D
  10. Are we expecting a pm for the meeting place for NOR pre cruise?
  11. that's a negative constable. At that time I was at my desk browsing pron at work. I do with I was still driving though........
  12. hahahaha shhhhhh I was trying to fool him Ciaran. It was worth a try.
  13. Well I found out that the saturday 5pm dinner has been cancelled, So I should make the pre - pre - pre - pre - pre - pre cruise from NOR... Any details up yet for this? I am sure it won't be Beechboro now, how about bennet springs Ralph Wiggam? That video is gold. The guy at the back left with the grey/black shirt looks like he is on some major trip and is halucinating.... lol

    So it is true what the IT people say. Google is your friend. Got my xr6t sedan, manual in december and haven't been this happy for ages. awesome car.
  15. Well it is true what has been said somewhere on this thread. turning off esc reduces your consumption even more. I was doing 8.0l/100km at 120km/h today on the freeway for a minute to see what I would get. I am pretty sure that it was like 10l/100km previously.
  16. Thanks for letting me know SteveR. I am not as worried now. I was worried that I was gonna be spending like 300+ per tire. I currently have 245/135/19.
  17. Sounds like a plan. How much we talking about though. I am pretty sure you have been to a few track days Slash. How much did it set you back more or less? This way I know what to expect. Do you guys do country cruises? like to dwellinup(I think that is what it is called). they have great wood fire pizzas.
  18. I think I spotted the kron on Tonkin at 5pm today. Ciaran would have to confirm it. I only saw the car in the rear view mirrors. couldn't exactly read the number plate. I am always concerned about how long these dunlops are gonna last especially when, I want to give the car a good flogging, but then I think about how much it is gonna cost to get some new tires on and I just have to hold back. What are you guys using and how much die they cost?

    Edit.

    well it has been a while since my last post and I have changed my driving ha bits a bit. I am getting more kms per tank, but still feeling the pinch. Just deal ling with it a lot better. When doing a stage 1 upgrade do most tuners include the xcal3 as part of the package?
  20. Maybe we should have a poll to see how many would attend a track day on a set date. have it in a month and a halfs time. that should be long enough yeah¿ Also do you know mow much it would cost¿
  21. Lol and double lol. no freebies.. no merchandise available either.... No I was not on the tonkin at any point yesterday or the day before. I am not crazy enough to do such speeds in town. Do they write your vehicle off if it lands on it's roof? If so, then tip away. gives me an excuse to upgrade to an old farts car. Which one I hear you say? G6E T!!! how come we newbies are limited to the amount of posts per day?
  22. Touche to " purple pussy pleaser" and "Velocity Pussy Pleaser", but I still think you guys are fooling yourselves and in denial.... Sunburst is the colour my friends.... SteveR, at 08:20am I am already in the office for close to 50 minutes, so no way we would be crossing paths any time soon. I finish work at 4pm and on the road back home. Normally home at 4:30pm. Nope not a Tradie mate. I won't disclose my ocupation until I meet you, other wise there will be a lot of people out there asking for Freebies.. not happening. I value my time especially on the weekends. I had a todler in the house and a second one on the way. In regards to the cruise next weekend, well it depends on what time it starts. I got to be in mandurah at 5pm for dinner with friends of ours. we should be finished by 06:30pm. This should give me an hour and a half to get home and get ready for the cruise assuming it starts at 08:00pm. Picture attached. I am sure XR6T James will recognise the location.
  23. I knew someone would own up to High Wycombe. I dont have any pics right now of the road, but I had planned to go to the High Wycombe shopping centre to take some pics of the car there, without the babes and see if you recognized the location. lol. Thanks for the welcoming guys. I have only changed the air filter to a K&N one. I always use em K&N filters. besides that nothing else has been changed. I prefer to wait till the 15k mark before doing any serious mods. I would like to get qaud tips for the exhaust but that is best left for stage one turbo. Need to save up for that. I am kinda broke right now as I spent it all on buying the car... Unless someone out there wants to offer me a well paying job, no mods any time soon..
