  1. Yeah I'll be out around 10 also. Trying to get some mates to come along, we'll see what happens ay. Can't wait to see some of the tuned ones in action!
  2. muuhuahahaha Thems fightin words I just can't wait to see what it might be like when I tune my bad boy <--:wacko: EDIT: Maybe you two should get some nice fat wheels. Lets post rwkw's shall we? Rips is a claimed 325. What's yours Sex?
  3. I don't think we should be competing when going for a cruise on Friday night ladies. I for one don't wanna get dicked in a group by the fuzz. Been there, done that! Dandy-Frankston Rd drags thursday nights 2002 lol If you two girls to race, it'll look like a f*cking burnout comp with that many rwkw you fools won't be able to hook em up. Nevertheless, I'll be the camera car so we can post it on here and give the loser so much sh*t, it'll come through their monitor. hehe :wacko:
  4. Nah it's tiptronic. www.howstuffworks.com has the right idea: 'A sequential manual transmission is not to be confused with a "tiptronic" sort of automatic transmission. The tiptronic system may duplicate the shift lever motion of a sequential gearbox. However, because a tiptronic transmission is an automatic transmission at its core, it still has the torque converter and usually does not shift as quickly.'
  5. Bionic... Hurry the hell up and donate ffs
  6. Manual is the way to go unless you're hunting 11 or 10 second 1/4 mile times. I don't think there has ever been a fully automatic circuit car? There are sequentials with no clutch, but not autos! Since I was 16 I've had: VH worked 202 club spec racer CA18DET '84 Bluebird Lightly modded N13 Nissan Pulsar N15 Pulsar SSS worked SR20DE BA MKII XR6 Lightly modded '04 Accord Euro R lookalike and now the R Spec They all had/have manual boxes, and every other car I buy for the rest of my life will be! It's just not pleasurable driving an auto. You can't feel ANYTHING! Try driving a worked car with no instruments. All you rely on is the feel of the car. That's what driving is all about. Sure, if you're driving to work, city driving or driving the family around, auto's make a lot of sense. However, in every other aspect of driving, autos are for women and lazy people who can't put up with he way a car was meant to drive! I drove my old man's 350 chev VT Clubsport around for a month a few years ago and I ended up putting it back in his garage and driving my pulsar. It was so boring driving it because it was an AUTOMATIC. This is only my opinion, please do not take offence!
  7. I just got my new tripod this morning. It was sitting right in front of my car in the carport when I walked out the front door. They were having a chat about how much better they would look together and how much they hate the stock gauges. lol Now when I get paid I'm gonna order those exact ozegauges you've attached from Scott. It's gonna look sick. But first I think I have to spray it first. I was thinking of carrying the shiny silver colour from around the ICC up to the base of the gauges. It might look good being that mine is Lightening Strike. Anyone know what the colour is?
  8. I can read posts until I slit my wrists about XR6T's having the centre mufflers removed, however has anyone had it done on a BF MKII Typhoon? (Not that there would be much difference, apart from the cat). Just interested to read if anyone has. Cheers!
  9. They're in Ferntree Gully. How much did you pay for the cat from RDP?
  10. I was hoping to be out of fuel by then! Oh well, if that's the going time then I'll be there.
  11. Congrats dude. Get the friggin camera onto it!!!
  12. Lets do it. Love ya avatar ENVY. Looks mint!
  13. (Copied from Vic Spotted Thread) Well, the financee is going out Friday night, and the parents are hopefully gonna take care of my little one, so looks like I've got the all clear for Friday night. Hopefully I'll have my tint and stereo done, but I doubt it. Who's up for a Friday night cruise/stand around like a mob of hoons/have fun? We should all get together. I wanna see everyone's cars in the flesh. Where do you guys usually go?

  15. Yeah there really isn't anything in there for a sedan. I felt like I was left out after reading them for an hour. Anyone have any answers for manual sedans? Mine does it too
  16. Deek your phoon looks SO tough! Can't wait to get some photos with mine some day. Great photos too. Can't wait till the next one, but I'll probably be working anywayz
  17. This is just f*ckED Why didn't they put a 75l tank in these thirsty-ass camels? Ford --> <-- Me
  18. Wish I coulda come. You needed some Lightening Strike in those photos
  19. Mine's a manual and I just pulled into the driveway then with 2490kms on it. It was on 16.6 for ages. I reset it and drove 'normally' up the monash to Stud Rd and it was saying around 13l/100km which should get you just over 500ks per tank, however in my first 2 weeks I never got to 400kms. I'm sure it'll get better when I get over the extra 90kw this thing has over my old NA XR6...
  20. What were you doing in Croydon? I live near there. Why can't anyone see me? It's not THAT quick!
  21. So is mine. I just hit 2400 on the way to work this morning. My average fuel comsumption is at 16.6l/100 at the moment so I'm trying to get that down, but it's just so much fun listening to the induction as opposed to changing before 3k! Edit: Also, which whiteline sways do you suggest? BFF21 or blade adjustable?
  22. If my office burns down I'll be there... (For legal purposes, if the building DOES burn down (please God) I didn't do it!)
  23. That thing looks mint. Love the pipes and the boot. Makes it look totally different without the rear spoiler. I love it. Can't wait to see and hear it in the flesh!
