Rollaclub Social (Off-Topic)

I'm going to buy alcohol for my birthday shindig on the weekend and I don't know what what type of beers and wines to get. So... What's a good Beer?? What's a good Red Wine?? What's a good White Wine?? Any help is appreciated. thanks, Jon.

I was ripped off, bought an 82 ke70, stripped the interior and found zero money and a mummified frog. Got me thinking. There must be some good stories out there....

The subject of this thread could also be: "How to make a reasonably decent amount of money for very little time and effort". Firstly, find yourself a neglected (but not abused) ZZE122. This one came from a guy who lived in the rainforest and considers his car more of an appliance than a precious chariot of freedom or object of worship... Which is fine. It had never been washed, polished, or vacuumed. Ever. Thats 8 years worth of crap, mould, and other contaminants. I purchased as is where is for $3000. Gerni that shit. All of it. Everywhere. Engine bay. NEVER been degreased... But had been semi-regularly serviced. Don't be shy with t…

How many of you fellow Rolla club members constantly take cr@p from people u work with and freinds family for being proud of driving a t Toyota Corolla . Cuz i sure do ;)

Just a curiosity topic/post, Post what you're listening to right now or what and who you enjoy listening to. I mainly listen to metal and bands like Periphery and Animals as Leaders. What's in your ears Rollaclub?

Well, it's off topic.. as there are no corollas from what I've seen so far. I've set up the stand for Car Audio Australia and I've had a peak around and seen what's out there. Can you believe across the stand from us is 4 x VL Interceptors and 2 x Walkies that look PRETTY MUCH IDENTICAL???? I'm gonna leave this thread open for MEGA photo shoots to appear... I'll keep you posted after tomorrow on day 1

News Article Just makes you think that Earth is becoming too hot. Global warming. You ever think of the disaster that this could cause to mankind? Or not really.... you just pass life on a day at a time and hope you don't overcook? I often think about this.. mainly when I get the feeling that I'm down to my boxers shorts only and I have the air conditioner on and I'm still thinking of a way to keep cool.

... that is all

Please read I personally think this is a little harsh considering the person is a new member...perhaps a nicer way of letting them know these things might be a more intelligent way to go about it hey? I'm sure if someone has what he needs, he can provide them with specific details to work out postage...perhaps he doesn't want his post code posted on a website for all to see? Sorry dad? I understand the fact that the rules need to be enforced...but this is more of a public humiliation than a nice way to welcome and teach new members...Perhaps he has never used a forum before, and didn't realise that when the page f@$ks out and he presses submit o…

Just stuffing around cos its bucketing down and I can't do bugger all else today, and I've noticed the Whereis.com satellite imagery is much more frequently updated than the Google ones... so I chucked my address in and there's my KE70 with black GT stripes sitting in the driveway! How cool is that shit!? I dunno about the rest of the country, but I can work out when my photos were taken based on how many and which cars are in my backyard... :) in my case, september last year which is MUCH more recent than Googles which are several years old. Mind you, google get their older images for free from the public domain, Whereis has to pay for them by loading their site…

I don't know if this is new but I just found it. I couldn't believe it could be possible to drive to the north pole! Top Gear Polar Special Just follow the 9 parts thru if you can be bothered.

I got this today from my Dad, it sounds encouraging, and I remember reading something about this a couple of months ago, do you think it would really work? I haven't used BP or Shell for some time, preferring the smaller operaters (Liberty and our local private service station (which has premium at the cost of the standard everywhere else) but I thought I'd pass it on anyway. Lesley :lolcry: LET'S JUST DO IT ! ! ! THIS IS NOT THE 'DON'T BUY' PETROL FOR ONE DAY, BUT IT WILL SHOW YOU HOW WE CAN GET PETROL BACK DOWN TO $1.00 PER Litre....hopefully This was originally sent by a retired Coca Cola executive. If you are tired of the gas prices going up AND they …

Dear Spelling Fairy, It has come to my attention lately that you have been giving me a helping hand. I think this is very generous, but there are a few things i would like to ask you. When i add replays to various posts, i use slang. Here are some words i instead of the real thing... ure - your 2 - two by - buy gimi - give me hello - sup / hey / helo / gday orig - original saw - sore tacko - tacho betta - better atleast - at least etc. I am now assuming you would like me to use no slang / chopped words, but instead the Real Mc-Coy. Now that i have 'ie spell', i check all my posts for mistakes. Lately, i have not changed the slang words, but th…

Keeping pets makes you more sociable Boost your social life How true!!! But what do you do when you've tried all those options and haven't come up with any hits (much less hits that worked out)? Hmm, keep trying I guess... Or just be like me and don't believe it.

I was inspired to create this thread after reading KE-3.8L's comment about Rollaclub being a drift orientated forum... I made the comment that only a minority of us were actually involved in drift, and another member said that alot of us were involved in rally/motorkhana. Hence this poll. Please vote for what aspects of motorsport you are involved in, will help me compile what the majority of Rollaclub is actually about :), and please don't turn this thread into a bullshit thread like. Have a nice day. Dan. EDIT: Yes, there is a flaw in the poll. You cannot vote more than once... so please just vote what the main area of your motorsport diet is :). Thanks.

OK, after many episodes of mad scientist-like thinking and many stupid ideas from friends and family... I'm thinking I would LOVE to go on there to do something different and see if I could win me some cash! BUT, I wouldn't go on there to make a fool of myself either... For those that don't know what I look like... see the two good looking ones in this pic here? I'm definitely not one them.. so I'm the other one left :P hahaha I don't know... so I'd thought I'd leave it for the public to give me some input.... Do I... A) Go on Big Brother 2007 and make RollaClub proud? or B) Stay in bed, sleep, work and get over it! ;) Ladies and Gentlemen.…

I swear I didn't see this last year, but can't remember, did RollaClub's clocks change to Daylight Savings time?? I don't like it. Its out by an hour. Reminds me of my childhood and having to work out the time on pay TV cause they were too cheap to fix the timing/delay the footage.

Okay guys, we are 3 months out from summer. It's time to get back into some free weights again. What I want is some tips from guys that know what they are doing rather than spare room dumbbell cowboys. I don't want to join a gym because firstly it is time consuming by the time you get home, change, go to the gym blah blah blah. Plus I feel ridiculous at a gym. Plus it costs lots of money that could otherwise be spent on Beam.... I mean, my Rolla. :bash: So, at my disposal I have: - Dumbbells with plenty of different weights to attach - A Straight Bar - A not so straight bar (dunno what they are called but they have the little triangle sections about sh…

Yo Ev, I know how much you dislike VG30's so I dedicated this engine build just for you :P I will let you know when I am putting the plenum on so you can come help... I shall finish it tomorrow (I hope) so it is ready for the conversion.

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=AkFqg5wAuFk I'm not saying this is the best or the ultimate, but thought I'd start a Metal thread.

mine is to quit smoking and try to be nicer to people can't really see both happening at the same time, but what the hell

hey anybody else got rc cars on here i have a tamiya nitrage 5.4 cc that runs on 25% nitro mix and goes like a cut snake but last weekend i think i broke the clutch as it has locked up bad here are some pictures :fuzz:

Got an email today asking me if I have bought my camshaft yet. It is an obvious scam and all similar offers received should be ignored (or tell 'em to get f@$ked. Be creative too, they're trying to steal from you!) Tell tale signs are - broken english - A business operator having hotmail or gmail or similar - Contacting from the other side of the world to try to sell something that can be easily gotten here. If they were really in spare parts they'd know that already They will try to get you to send money via Western Union. DON'T DO IT!!!! Here is the email: -- [email protected] Hello Kindly advise if you still need items as requested as I ha…

So with the school holidays approaching what do you guys think will be the hottest asked topic? I am guessing that it will be something from 19914afc but every year there is the "how do I go fast" thread that comes up every school holidays.

Well, I don't know how many times i've heard about how good a rat style VN would look on this forum, so when I came across this on dwcustoms.com I thought that I would share it with you's. Its not a VN, but a VP (same shit different smell), and its not completely rat, but I think it looks good anyhow. Anyway less talk more pics. Dan.

Got news earlier that Bianca wrote off(well suspected) her aw11. Aparently spent 4 hours in hospital having x-rays and stuff after she put her mr2 into a tree head on. Thats about all the details i have at the moment. Can't go see her due to her family not really liking me for stupid reasons. The scary thing was that recently she's been waking up after having nightmares about crashing her mr2 into a tree. We spoke about it and she thought that it was on the way home from her sisters b'day, even more scary was the fact that it happend on the way to her sisters b'day. I was at a mates b'day at the time and had my phone on silent, so yet again I'm in the bad books for not …

pretty good link. a bit scary at the same time. type in one peice of information and it find any matches from the white pages. boong hunter

Yesterday I got inspired and decided to yank the engine out of my parts car so could get the 5 speed and anything else useful from it and cube the shell. Much to my amazement my other half wanted to lend a hand... so I gave her a phillips head and a 10mm socket and told her to remove whatever she could. Within half an hour she'd stripped all the light fittings, bezels and brackets and was keen to do more so I let her cut sick in the engine bay and another hour later she'd isolated the engine completely and we just dragged it out. She then proceeded to split the gearbox from the engine and we were done.... :P A few pics Cursing like a sailor at the hea…

hey peeps Just thought I'd throw a few pics up of my trip thus far.... Due to an airline f@$kup I didn't get to spend as much time as planned in Japan, so the Chaser hunt is postponed til I come back in a few months. But, I did get around a bit and snap a few cool shots. Tokyo madness... For those that have never been, these few shots serve to illustrate the enormity and sheer scope of this amazing city... its truly mind boggling that it functions at all, 12 million people in central tokyo and 32 million in the greater tokyo district and somehow they all manage to get to work on time, eat, sleep, and get very very drunk on the weekends. Its incredible. I love …

This is the worst thing EVER!!

thought i,d test your knowledge, anybody

Hey guys, I am going on a bit of a road trip starting next weekend with my two sisters. We will be in Sydney, Melbourne, Newcastle & Coffs Harbour. (In that order) I'm just wanting to know if anyone can recommend anything interesting to do/see?? I'm trying to convince my sisters that it would be better for us to take the rolla but at the moment it looks to be a squashy Nissan Micra. :(

So Michael Phelps gets busted with a bong: And the Facebook ad which has been around for ages:

been here for a while and every now and then a word will come up and I have no idea what it means. Surely I'm not the only 1? and I'm not just talking about WTF or LOL there is more i just can't think of them. Ditto ? Noob ?
