Rollaclub Social (Off-Topic)

All I've saved the pennies again and we're off on an adventure. We fly out on Sunday 20 Feb for a 5 week holiday. 3 days in Tokyo, 4 weeks in Europe starting in London and 3 more days in Tokyo. I'll try to post cars I see while I'm on the road. Take care you crazy kids Bamboo

Hey All, Just a quick one to let you all know I'm the newest member in the ever growing rollaclub dad club! I'm busy and tired so I'll make it quick. Due to medical comlications baby is with us 13 weeks sooner than expected, but was healthy enough to be screaming (and breathing) as soon as he was pulled out and is now doing very well. Obviously he's pretty small 795gm to be exact, but he's a little fighter so he'll hopefully be home around the due date which was 17th August. Mum is also now fine and should be up and about soon. We were having a lot of trouble just trying to short list some names, so are really struggling now, so he still hasn't got one b…

Yes i know. the last time i had logged on was over a year ago, but alas life is always in the way of fun. My last bit of distraction was a pregnancy, my partner and i where expecting our first born girl, Abigail unfortunately she was a little eager and came out in her 22nd week of gestation she came out alive and kicking, grabbed my finger but passed away 2 hours later. We are grieving, and one of those things we decided to do, is drive the little sprinter to the funeral. we need tyres, second hand 13" ones, but don't seem to be able to find any, so anyone who can help us sus a set out, all four, something along the lines of 175 60r13 and if possible,…

thought id make this thread up for any one that wants to put up some artistic or nice pics they have taken. ive got a Fujifilm finepix S9500 thats all i need but i would love a finepix S5 pro heres just some of my favorite pic..

Hey I read a thread a while back and someone was talking that they had a glovebox full of flyers for rollaclub they put under windscreen wipers of rollas to invite people to join. Is there a file or image of it floating around? Ill print some off at work and do the same thing. If there is nothing should I make one up, is that cool with mods? Share the rolla'y goodness. Could be cool to have a few for the Brisbane cruise too if there are some interested bystanders.

if I'm at home and i leve a light on for 24 hours how much does it cost?? and if i flick it on and off 20 million times in 24 hours will it cost more??

So what is the worst engine you can remember either owning or seeing? I meen, there a few lemons out there, so lets hear it. Mabye it was unreliable? or mabye it was just slow? I'm gonna kick this off by listing the 'Starfire engine'. They were found in early model Commodores, Coronas and verious other vehicles, I just bought a corona with a Starfire engine (more like a startfire!). Its by far the slowest smokiest peice of dog shit ive ever driven, and it has a timing chain rattle that would give off the impression that its had a hand full of washers dropped down each bore. Absolute rubbish! :jamie:

F1 may finally get interesting...... Maybe.

Hi All, does anyone know how to get in contact with Holden2100? i bought some brakes off of him back in december and still havent received them. he hasnt replied to any of my PM's or emails so i wanted to know whether anyone knew him? thansk for your help in advance.

The guy driving the Nissan Cefiro did a skid then fled from the cops Thoughts and opinions, I myself think hes a massive tool for doing it on rundle street! If it was on a track then i don't think people would care but on the road and where its busy as hell NO DICE! have a look at the vid

Hey all, Anyone know where I can get a lowrider or dragster push bike in Victoria, something with old school styling like these: http://www.bicycledesigner.com/defaulthome...3FType%3DDeluxe I remember seeing a thread a while ago about someone building custom ones, I'm pretty sure it was from a Toyota forum. I looked on here and on Toymods, but no luck. If anyone has that link, I would love to see it. I've looked around eBay and the trading post but I can't really find what I'm after. Cheers guys, Sian

Hey Guys, I was trying to register for ae86drivingclub.com.au, but it looks like registration is closed? I looked around for an e-mail to an administrator but no luck... Anyone know how I go about it? I need to grab some parts for the 20v conversion ;) Cheers, Kel

So enough of my fellow Americans have failed so bad in life that operating an automobile is out of their range of skills.

Thanks Rolla peeps, that other guy should really realise that this site is not a Ferarri engineers technical forum run by the 3 main Princes of Abu Dhabi. If I didn't have this place I'd still be stuck at unlocking my car (slight exageration?). Three cheers to Rolla Club Hip Hip.......

CLicky clicky linky That plane first flew in 1955. Fasten your seat belt for a fantastic ride. This video is a once in a lifetime experience of a British civilian getting a flight at over 70,000 ft. in a U-2 spy plane. Please note at the take-off the assist wheels on the outer edges of the wings which drop off upon take-off. The wings are so long that they need temporary support until lift-off. What is not shown is at the landing the plane actually slows to a small enough speed that two guys are actually able to grab the wing tips and put those assist wheels back on. The civilian getting the ride is the host of the car show Top Gear on BBC (James May…
