    Too bad the keys were not left sitting in the egnition :nugget:
  4. Maybe back in the days when turbos were first developed they may have not lasted too long but that’s like anything else that’s new, once the technology is perfected there is no turning back, all SAABs in Australia these days have turbo charged engines and if a company as big and well respected as SAAB put turbos in their engines, this sais a lot.

    It wasn't when I was there a few months back, just full of slow drivers, but if they pull off to the kerbs provided for overtaking you'll be ok, or even if they don't you can always hop in the kerb and overtake them in your XR6T have a llok at the where is web site to search for a map of the area in case you don't have one.

    Menangle road between Cambelltown and Picton is pretty good, this strech of road is mostly 100kmh, has plenty of turns, curves and a couple of black spots too. Keeps you amused for about 15-20 mins. B)

    Congratulations Guys Your site rules
  14. The chubby guy you see in one of the pictures is Kimble, he's an ex master computer hacker who back a few years ago did some time (I think) and when he got out, strated he's own PC security business and has been making millions since, I remember looking at this site a few years ago when he only had the original megacar. he has his own site which is pretty bloody impressive to at kimble.org and there are plenty of pics there if his boats and other sports cars that he owns and has written off. Take a look and see what you think.
  15. ohhh, I like your one better, it has Falcons in it :D
  16. I found this cool flash game (pic attached) that gives you a stock car and lets you add all kinds of exterior mods, I found it fun so I thought I'd share. createaride.com <--- To download the game.
  17. They do exist, I've seen them in shops, but like you said, I also thought they were too good to be true and didn't buy one. From memory, it wasn't too expensive either
  18. heard of but never tried

    I think I may take the turbo sticker off mine to not attract attention from thieves and hoons
  21. Welcome Alan, Thank you. Already there have been too many incidents where a brand spanking new XR6t or XR8 have been totaled. These cars have great power and with great power comes greater responsibility. I know its been said before but I'd hate to hear that any one of you had been seriously hurt. I've also said this b4. "It's not how fast you get there, it's how cool you look geting there". :D Let's face it, in any XR/GT, we definatleyhave the upper hand. Damn sweet looking pieces of machinery. You know what I’d like to be able to do? Whenever I see some idiot driver on the road up to no good and I mean really up to no good like trying to run people off the road and driving dangerously or throwing cigarette butts and or other things out the window, running red lights a few seconds after the light on my side go green, I’d like to be able to ring a number to dob them in so that they can be given a warning of some kind. I don’t mean to sound like a party pooper but I do I lot of driving and have seen a lot of things in the past. I don’t care about things like burnouts because that’s just damage to their own car but more serious things. Do you Police readers know of a number that I can ring to allow us to do this?
  22. I haven't had any problems with CD's jumping (copies or originals). Does it do it randomly? At the same spots on the CD's? Does it only do it when you go over bumps, etc. or even when you are stationary? I've been burning music for a while now and have noticed that most problems occur on cheaper stereo systems regardless of the brand and with the CD thickness also regardless of the brand. With a decent stereo system, it should be able to read thick or thin CD’s (depending on how old the system is) without a problem, but with cheaper stereo systems you need to go with the thicker CDs. So to be on the safe side all you need to do is always buy the thicker CDs like TDK but there are other plenty of other brands. Also I have never been able to get a CDRW to play on a normal CD player but I have on compatible DVD players.
