hey guys ive recently put an N/A bridgeport 13B rotor in my ke55, and my brakes before the conversion were shocking and wouldnt stop the old 4K so I'm not leaving it to chance and need a front brake upgrade. i was just wondering if anyone knows a place where i can get a pair? ( ordered in or cutom made) or does anyone know what parts i can mix and match to make a custom pair i would preferably like them to use coilovers. i am good with my hands and am good with tools so i am keen on giving it a go if i can. or is anyone selling an upgrade? also I'm wondering if anyone knows a place in sydney that can build me an LSD to fit in my ke55, also does anyone know what LSD …

Hey all I posted this suggestion in the other thread but maybe this will get more attention. I was thinking if someone had an idea of how too start and maintain a flood appeal thread that would be a good idea Thanks Steve

Happy 21st Matt! :party:

Great show as usual. A lot of diversity. Hope you guys enjoy. We have hundreds of more pics to load up. More pictures on our blog and FB page. http://www.shiftgearblog.com/2....html

with the '24 movie coming next year, i figured i'd gauge interest. i, myself have been a fan of Kiefer Sutherland since his early days(lost boys/sliders FTW), and truly got hooked on the CTU story. in fact, just this year i watched the whole series again from the start, in anticipation of the movie. anyhow, back to the topic of the thread, http://jackvschuck.com/index.html and who would win in a fight? check out this in depth analysis: http://jackvschuck.com/jvc.html

A pinch and a punch for the first of the month And no returns till the end of the month :P

What motivates us? I was watching a show on the ABC network the other day and came across this very interesting clip. It somewhat relates to car enthusiasts such as ourselves and why we strive to get better and better at what we do. Its worth a watch! http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=u6XAPnuFjJc

taken from thechive.com and lastly, sorta unrelated, but funny

http://www.ustream.tv/channel/bathurst-12-hour A few versions available on ustream. Subaru WRX just swallowed something solid into the turbo, it might get back out, but Audi are in front in the main class.

yo guys, um the day i bought my rolla i managed to lock my wallet in the glove box, = pry it open, i completely broke the lock barrel. just wondering what other people have done with there glove boxes, soon enough i will install a cdplayer in there but at the same time wanna keep it original, can't seem to find a replacement locking barrel maybe I'm looking in the wrong place

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…

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

With week 7 now gone, and a shock double-elimination taking two contestants out of the running, only three people remain in the Shannons Supercar Showdown! This week’s reward challenge focuses on reaction time, and the ability to process visual information. V8 Supercar drivers need keen eyes in order to spot potential collisions, obstacles, and be able to react quick enough to avoid disaster. The last three have to test their skills on a state of the art reaction tester. Not just once however, but twice. After they’ve completed the first task on the reaction tester, the competitor has to take part in a quick exercise circuit before heading back to the ma…

We Shall Keep The Faith Oh! You who sleep in Flanders Fields, Sleep sweet - to rise anew! We caught the torch you threw And holding high, we keep the faith With All who died. We cherish, too the poppy red That grows on fields where valor led; It seems to signal to the skies That blood of heroes never dies, But leads lustre to the red Of the flower that blooms above the dead In Flanders Fields. And now the Torch and Poppy Red We wear in honor of our dead. Fear not that ye have died for naught; We'll teach the lesson that ye wrought In Flanders Fie…

How come I can never find a ke70 in cali for sale? Seems as if every ke70 is in australia. I'm a noob on the ke70 so i might be the stupidest person on this forum.

I know there is a couple of fellow-Aucklanders on here, so I figure its worth a try. I'm flying back to NZ for my mum's 90th birthday in Rotorua. Which means landing in AKL and hiring a car for two weeks or so. (there is ALWAYS work that needs doing on the house...) Sadly Mum 's birthday is April 1st, so this year the time will cover Easter, when I'm sure nearly everyone will be out in their pride 'n joy. Anyway, I couldn't see the point of paying $40/day to some car hire place when maybe someone had a handy rolla sitting around. Anything reliable will do, Starlet, K-series, Rona... Just make sure it comes with a full toolbox!

Hi everyone at Rollaclub, This November I am taking part in the Mystery Box rally which raises money for the Cancer Council. My teammate and I fly to Sydney, get a car worth under $1000 in a mock auction run by the Cancer Council and proceed to 'rally' around mystery locations in outback New South Wales... and maybe Victoria or ACT. Who knows. The money we raise is used in the auction, so if we raise $5,000, we have up to that amount to bid on a car.. so help us get a better car! All of the money goes towards the Cancer Council. We need to raise at least $3,000 to take part, but are trying to aim for $5,000. If anyone would like to donate to my team, you can do so he…

Found this while surfing the internet. 1974 During the second phase of the Turkish invasion of Cyprus on 14 August 1974 the Mesaoria plain was overrun by Turkish tanks and Famagusta bombed by Turkish aircraft. In two days the Turkish Army occupied the city, which had been completely evacuated by its Greek Cypriot population, who had fled into surrounding fields before the army's arrival. Most believed that once the initial violence calmed down they would be allowed to return. As a result of the Turkish airstrikes dozens of civilians died, including tourists. Varosha Unlike other parts of the Turkish-controlled areas of Cyprus, the Varosha suburb of Famagusta was f…
