Currently Full of boredom! So thought i'd ask the question. What's your Wallpaper? Computer, Phone.. Anything! Mine currently :blush:

Looking down at my keyboard this morning while purchasing something on ebay got me thinking. Do the English have a different keyboard on their computers? I notice how there is no "£" symbol on our keyboard, only the "$" sign.

So I took the advice and made a eye catching title!! So now I have your attention, can some one please tell me why it won't show me any pictures in the wiki/FAQ section, it's really frustrating Thanks

The plastic hang rings can look cool but why the absolute f*ck would you pay $67 for one and the auction isn't even over. The fact that it has illest and fatlace in the title means its a waste of money. http://www.ebay.com.au/itm/Genuine-JDM-Train-Handle-Hangring-Bosozoku-Fatlace-Illest-Cressida-KE70-Shakotan-/200750074916?pt=AU_Car_Parts_Accessories&hash=item2ebda30c24#ht_774wt_1143

Hey guys, Part of my uni course I need to talk to residential builders about different processes - such as timber selection for trusses, concrete mixtures, foundation types etc and get a letter or email from the person who is helping me stating they have done so. My issues is that I don't know anyone in the construction industry at all, and I work from 8am to 5pm Monday to Friday full time. So I'm hoping maybe there is someone on here who could help me out from time to time? If you spare a couple of minutes, can you please PM me, or reply to this thread, I would extremely grateful. Thanks Tom.

Finally found footage of it, I was on the bank watching this. http://www.streetfire.net/video/rotary-dx-limo-doing-doughnuts_190715.htm

Hey guys, I propose we run a Rollaclub fishing competition! State vs State - Winner takes bragging rights! 2 x Comps each year - one weekend over a Summer & Winter period. So I was thinking we break it down into classes, and biggest fish, rarest fish and worst/ugliest fish! Class of fishing can be: Offshore, Estuary, River, Freshwater. To post a valid entry, you have to post a unedited photo taken by a digital camera to be able to view the "Exif" information All fishing licensing and regulations must be followed in that state. Would anyone be interested in competing? If you have any ideas on how to make the fishing competition more successful, …

so, i was on IMDB.com and looking at random stuff. came across this beauty, lol there are some real nice classics of that era found in the movie "Squadra-antitruffa" will have to check her out http://www.imcdb.org...antitruffa.html http://www.imcdb.org...antitruffa.html

We are Corolla owners and lovers for a reason. We can obviously see something in them most people can't. But apart from anything Corolla, and lets even exclude Toyota in general .... What car and why?

This week after Easter is when I'll head to Cairns, probably Friday, Saturday and Sunday, about 750km a day. Google reckons the shortest way is through Walgett, Lightning Ridge, stay in St George, next day through Roma, Emerald, Clermont to Belyando Crossing, and the last day goes through Charters Towers to the sea and then Townsville to Cairns. If you're on the route I might get time for a quick cup of tea or a beer...

I have a trip to Europe coming up later this year & I'm currently searching around for a rental car. I briefly had an idea of going 'Top Gear USA style' & buying an AE82 FX-GT while I'm there, then reality kicked in. So, seeing as I know bugger-all about European local cars, I thought I'd turn it over to you guys/girls. Please keep in mind my overall budget is not massive, but I don't want to hire something that's worse to drive/slower than my 2AC powered AE80 as I have some pretty epic roads in mind. :wink: Options in my price range are: Fiat Panda 1.2 AC Puegot 107 VW Polo 2 door Opel Corsa 2 door Petrol or TD Audi A1 Alfa Romeo Giulietta VW Go…

Just randomly thought that his page/site is pretty old now and haven't seen updates. Wondering if anyone knows what he's up to? EDIT: As in if he's still got projects, new or old. ʞ©$ɟ I'm bored

I've seen a BMX thread so I searched for a mountain bike thread and nothing came up so I'll start one. Years ago I rode enduro dirt bikes, I was winging to a mate about the costs of this and he invited me to come ride a DH bike as it's mainly a setup cost. Well I did ended up hooked sold the old dirt bike and the rest is history. Raced a couple of state race rounds which is fun and the DH community is very welcoming. I mainly ride the local trails 15min from home and mt buller when they are open. So here are details of my current ride(pics later tonight when I get to the laptop). Frame : 2003 Kona stab deluxe(could have a newer one but I like the way it rides). Fork…

Howdy kids. Just a quick one... Some little f*ckstain has been stealing and re-uploading Teddy's (theauzzylife) content on youtube. If you'd be so kind as to flag/dislike/spam the bejesus out of this particular video, we'd be most appreciative. As would the actual owner of the car, who happens to live at my house. Cheers, your trustworthy uncle Shady :) http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=W28cU3sX3Wc

http://itunes.apple....=8&ign-mpt=uo=4 i bought this a year or more ago. and still refer to this thing..! anyone who is into the grappling arts, will love this its like just under 2Gb of info, vids, techniques and texts. a bit on Roy, from memory, forgive if I'm out(coulda googled it) he earnt his blackbelt in japanese Ju jitsu as an Uchi deshi(live in student) in japan, and also earnt his black belt in Judo from the Kodokan(sorta like the home of all the japanese traditional arts) he then saw the utility of BJJ and got into that under Roy Harris. and is now a 2nd degree. which is rare in non brazilians..! he now has a truly unique style, and not to me…

putting it out there, as generally speaking, 'the bad' gets more attention in life. i wanted to say that in my short time on here, and the dealings i have had, both in buying/selling and just at meets, has been amazing..! can't say enough about it. after another deal just now with another R.C member, I felt it deserved a thread. we meet here due to our mutual love of the 'Rolla, and then realize we have so much more in common. i can relate to everyone i've dealt with, regardless of age. this is also a thankyou to the guys ive met, and the guys who created the club. ILU guys, seriously /salute

The basic low-down: - 16 fighters enter the house, 8 at Featherweight, 8 at Middleweight. Wanderlei Silva and Vitor Belfort are the coaches, their assistants ate currently TBA. The show has just about wrapped filming & is being produced in the same way the prior version of TUF on Spike TV was made (i.e. - pre-filmed & packaged, nothing broadcast live). - Due to appalling ratings for the two first episodes of the current TUF 15 season on FX, no major Fox affiliates or Fox themselves have been willing to pick up the international broadcast rights to TUF Brazil. Which is an epic shame, because the fights on this show will be awesome compared to t…

We all want you to come and enjoy this site. I am not a mod, these are my own opinions and tips. Ettiquite: Respect, being polite, asking nice. Easy ways to get answers you want.

While your friends may be able to understand your 'hy m8 cn i gt ur phn numbr so i cn go2 th playce' SMS messages, a forum is not the place for the…

Haven't seen NISROLA online in ages. Or Trev either. Where you at NIS and Trev?

http://youtu.be/GJX9QnrZtfc if you don't know Ryan Hall, google him. dude is scary on the mat, and one of the best instructors out there, really makes sense to 'you' whether you are a white belt in BJJ, or black. right after one of his seminars, the 50/50 team and some other instructors are eating a local join t when a guy rocks up asking for a light, they advise him they are non smokers. it escalates from there truly love how this was handled. at the end of the clip, the guy and his friend rock back to the table, apologize and pay for their meals

Now, I'm not a believer in such superstition but I've been living in this house going on 4 years now and everyone that has ever lived here with me has encountered/heard shit that just isn't quite right, myself included but today's incident really takes the cake. A couple of my good friends used to live here with me and they all said that they heard weird shit and I know I was too, like we have these concrete stairs up to the front door and we would always hear footsteps coming up the stairs, open the door and theres no one there. Heard the taps and showers momentarily splurge water and not just like a leak or something, they legitimately sound like they've been turned…

Best quotes and sayings about car racing "Gotta work on the nut behind the wheel before you start fixing bolts on the car". "Racing makes Heroin addiction look like a vague wish for something salty." -- Peter Egan Colin Chapman: Simplify, then add lightness Roger Penske: the harder you work, the luckier you become Jackie Stewart: It is not always possible to be the best, but it is always possible to improve your own performance When you think you know it all, it's a sure sign you don't The best way to make a small fortune in racing is to start with a large one and work down from there On racers that favored implementation of restrictor plates…

Damn thats a fine looking car. The 2+2 features a host of dramatic details. Most obvious is the targa-style glass roof, which combines with a long bonnet and chunky A-pillars. At the front is an even more aggressive version of Lexus' latest family nose – first shown on the LF-Gh concept, which previewed the new GS. But the LF-LC features an even more prominent grille, as well as striking triple LED headlights and a pair of huge intakes that feed air to the brakes. At the back it takes its inspiration from Lexus' LFA supercar, with a pert tail, LED rear lights and more air vents. Inspiration for the tunnel-like rear lights is said to come from the afterburners of a…

Anyone here watch Anime? Other than Bunta's tofu racing prodigy? I've started watching Bleach again and man is it good. Still got 290 episodes to go though... What Anime are you watching (if any) RC??

We have a few threads that are dedicated to types of music. There is the youtube videos thread, a Hiphop thread and even a Dubstep thread. How about a thread totally dedicated to music you love. I'm keen to hear whatever the hell anyone likes, I'm an avid music fan. The first rule of the music thread is : There are no rules. The second rule of the music thread is : No Justin Bieber http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=HDGSlfXsRiw

Open a new tab / page. Goto googles main page type in "Do a barrel roll" :dance: Any others ?

So been looking online for a forum that I could find more info about my Subaru. I've found this one and was about to join when I saw this in the forum rules.... http://www.ausubaru.com/forum/showthread.php?t=12409 I've highlighted the section for you... I guess they must hate Toyota's as much as you guys hate Subaru's.

Well I'm really bored. I can't even think of a decent movie to watch so I'll ask what everyone else recommends watching. Inspire me RC
