R-SPEC

lol that's a pisser. All my mates drink bundy. Hey, how funny is this?

Hello? Firewall here! I can't see that sh*t!

that's gold!

Yeah true. I mean I've wanted to go on a shooting rampage for ages. Luckily a couple of deleted scenes from GTA stopped me!

Can't wait for the new Grand Theft Auto

It's funny having a better car than your teachers lol

I'm very impatient mate. They managed to take $8k off the prices of them from Jan to March, so they made their money off me.

Think of the petrol those engines would chew if you gave em some stick. I wouldn't be surprised if they increased the petrol tank size and made those things even more heavy.

Disturbed And Naughty That's right

Yeah man. Upgrade to an F6. I did! You'll never look back!

Hey yo Jimbo Hows the XR goin? Do you drive it to school?

Dan, you've been reading under the caps of the Spring Valley juice bottles haven't you...HAVEN'T YOU! I got these in two I bought from our Cafe: Liddle fact No. 39 'Smelling bananas and/or apples can help you lose weight.' Liddle fact No. 66 'Frogs must close their eyes to swallow.' I'm beating you Dan.....

Take it to Fraud and say 'I don't want it back until it's fixed you cumb dunts.'

I'm so cut they made the standard turbo models with the same power as the F6. I think it's a bit of a kick in the face. 245 to 270 is a big jump! Pricks... Yoda voice, "Have to tune it you will!"

I tried to buy an update BF MKII in early Jan this year, I ordered a Silk 6 speed manual with almost every decent option, I signed the papers and it was a done deal, then the guy rang me about a week later while I was away on holidays and told me that Ford had 'shut down the area for producing manuals to make way for the FG.' So Ford refused to give me a 2008 build manual BF MKII update. They said an auto was no problem, then I told em to shove it and bought the phoon.

Twas an option I believe. My mate had one with a stroker kit, fast as fizzuck and had a gay red stripe. Castro, did you put Nizmo, Mugen, TRD and RalliArt stickers all over your excel?

Is tab a bitch? Well, you know what they say... You learn something new every day!

FPV rang me today after I voiced my concern for the compendium. She looked up my details and had my address as a locked bag PO Box some where in NSW or QLD. She tried to tell me that I used to live there. I told her that I have never lived anywhere other than Melbourne in my life and gave her my address. She thinks that the compendium may have been sent to that box. Then she said that if that is the case, they will have to wait until that thing arrives back (What if it doesn't?) because it has a certificate in there. I also told her that my sales rep never told me about the compendium or free driver day thingy and she said that she wanted to speak to him immediately about why he did not update my address and not tell me about the FPV ownership benefits. lol she was pissed off, but it's still not good enough. They're a bunch of clowns. Sure, if bad customer service happens every now and then as a result of a mistake, it's okay, but this many times? Someone needs some customer service training!

I found this.... This explains it quite well... Now that there's a whole intake system full of compressed air with nowhere to go, and the compressor is not being driven by the turbine - so it can't hold the same air pressure that it did while spinning flat out. The air will start to flow the other way, which means going backwards through the still spinning compressor. This is where compressor surge comes into play. The compressor is still trying to pump air, but at the speed it's going it can't provide as much pressure as there already is in the pipe. This causes the compressor to "stall". Stall is a misleading turn used here, because it doesn't mean stall as in to stop spinning. It's the aerodynamic stall, like a plane that's tried to climb too steeply, or has slowed down too much to maintain lift. The smooth air flow through the compressor blades is broken up, and some of the air will flow back out through the compressor, making a hissing noise. Centrifugal compressors work on a "squared" relationship for speed vs flow / pressure, so if the turbo slows down to half speed it will only be able to hold a quarter of the boost pressure. The "chopping" or "fluttering" sound is caused by the accoustic effects in the intake system, determined by the size and length of the piping / cooler. Rather than air constantly flowing back out of the turbo it tends to come out in bursts, triggered by pressure waves in the piping hitting the compressor. Generally though the flutter is the sound of the pressure wave cause by the throttle closing bouncing back and forth between the turbo and the throttle plate (the longer the pipes the slower the flutter). Every time the wave hits the turbo it causes the compressor to cavitate, which makes the noise. It's not the blades chopping the air making the flutter. Since the blades are spinning at 80000+rpm you wouldn't be able to hear the individual "chops" If you listen closely you'll actually hear a more constant hiss sound at higher boost levels and rpm when backing off. (ie, a "whooosh" rather than a "chop chop chop") The loudest flutter tends to occur at lower rpm and boost levels of only slightly above atmospheric pressure (0psi). This is partly because the sound is "chopped" up more noticeably, and partly because the rest of the car is making less noise at lower speeds. This is also where it's least damaging. Car manufacturers don't like weird noises from the intake system, so they use restrictive airboxes designed to muffle the sound, and more recently (SR20 onwards) used a Blow Off Valve.

I don't think I've actually posted a dig in here about that drunk bastard! YOU f*ckIN LUSH!

You see, I enjoy it when that happens lol

They can only get you if you flash your high beam as there is a law against high beams in certain areas within a certain distance of someone else. All you have to do to avoid this is to turn the light switch two clicks twice, this way they have no way to fine you. f*ckin dirty cops getting people flashing, now THAT is revenue raising at it's best. And I flash peeps too... All the time and I make sure I wave a thanks at people who flash me, you never know when you could get dicked.

I wouldn't have stood for that. Even if it is a 6" sub. What a joke they are!

Well spoken! (says the guy with Dunlops)

Look at the grooves on the tyres! They're brand new and they're bound to be noisy. Vol 3 on the stereo should cut most of the noise out! When the tread wears out it'll get better, otherwise when they wear out, ask your local tyre clown to suggest a more quiet tyre.
