  1. No. After the food and service I received for lunch, I wasn't paying.
  2. KE30's are wider tho.
  3. Sometimes I wonder if anyone is paying attention to what my niece and nephew are eating. They get so hyped up on sugar they become uncontrollable. Its only when I say something when they ask for more lollies does their mother (my sister) say no. Oh and first thing when they get to my place in the morning, 7am, and they right away want chocolate, so their grandfather gives it. I try to say something and my sisters like, "They had breakfast". Well if that isn't parenting... Oh and yesterday, I was at White Water World with both of my nieces. Me and my other sister walked out of the surf shop and the girls walked up to us with lolly pops asking us to open them. We were like WTF!! They ripped them off. If you wont give it they will steal at an early age.
  4. I'm keen on this too. I was actually going to go down to Pedders when I get a chance as I'm pretty sure they would be able to make one up for me.
  5. Oh by the way ladies, everyone that has paid and has been pestering me, your calendar was sent away today. Its somewhere in Australia Post Land.
  6. So your wanting to keep it original but while adding extras by upgrading the model to a CS-x right??
  7. Best thing I ever did was went to Bunnings and bought shelves. You can buy the cheap metal ones but I bought the expensive powdercoated ones. Man you'd be surprised what you can fit in them. Its cause all your shit is taking up floor space, but with a shelf, its all air. And get your self plastic containers for the parts just to slot into the shelves. I went the cheap way and just stole about 20 milk crates. Works but not as well cause of the holes.
  8. Don't lose interest mate. You have one great car here. And your other cars... WOW!!! You could make money off that Dodge you know. It could be used for weddings. Very nice and the Falcon... :P I wanted one of them but settled for my rolla. I think my dad would have rather me own one of them. He keeps bringing up "Why did I buy this car when I could have got a nice Falcon" lOl
  9. I have a KE36 :P

    You need one of my fliers :P
  11. Sadly in my family we copped the belt, the shoe, a stick. I was the youngest and my two older sisters would gang up on me. I had no chance. Plus they were daddy's favorites. My dad mellowed a lot with us 3 younger kids, my two older siblings would be forced to kneel on gravel and pray (in the 70's). Sadly if one got in trouble they both got in trouble. Could explain the bond they both have. Tho I think my brother has mental issues over it. So I guess there is a line of how far to go. As kids we were never allowed to step out of line. Dam if we would visit someones house, we had to sit in the same spot and play, no moving. I swear my dad though he was back in the home land and still in the Army. In a way his father was real strict with him too apparently, so it carries on I guess. If I ever have kids (which I hope to) I hope I'm not that bad. I'm pretty good around my niece and nephew but when I have to look after them, and have to punish them, I try to send them to their room. If I have to smack them its only with an open hand. Its hard to punish them tho when they just have toys in every room, the just go and play. And so many god dam toys. I never had that many when I was a kid. (tho after 4 kids before me what was left) Dam I want kids :P
  12. Something would have to be different internally for the shifter position to be further back. But I'm pretty sure that they would be the same ratios.

    Well does Shades want some fliers??
  14. Thats why you pick up hitch hikers. Haven't you heard of the hitch hikers code?? Dam, I'm going to watch Jay and Silent Bob now. lOl
  15. I stumped my toes yesterday. Actually all 4 bar the big toe on my right foot copped the corner of the couch. I was just sitting on my bed on the computer and decided to go get a drink, when I got up all 4 toes were numb. I think its connected.
  16. Something I just don't get. There is no education. For starters it should start in schools. Driver training etc. Secondly, there is no place for enthusiasts to go. Before Christmas I went to the skids for the first/last time. Everyone is edging this guy on to drift around the teardrop. When it goes well he's a legend, when it doesn't he's a loser. 1. He is an inexperienced P plater driving a high powered car (Soarer) One that is too powerful for him. 2. There is no safety, no barriers. All the cars are lined up around the outer edge of the street with spectators in front of them. 3. The unthinkable happens. He over corrects and flies in towards the crowd. A Young girl was sitting in a 4wd with her legs hanging out of an open door. He hit that door and the slid and pinned under the 4wd. And what happend then?? The crowd that once edged him on turned against him. He later as he tried to leave got punched in the face through his open window and had bottles thrown at his car. Not even his insurance would cover this and for the 4wd owner to even make a claim he will need to make a police report. But then again he shouldn't have been parked on a driveway too. But they are all guilty. Do you think that one person called an ambulance for that girl?? Did her friends take her to a hospital?? What friends they are. They need a controlled environment where kids like this can go to do whatever they want where it is safe. Doing it on local roads where bystanders could get hurt is plain stupid. We use to have this massive carpark down on the Gold Coast where everyone use to go to show off their cars. The cops could always shut the place down and start defecting people when ever they feel like it. And most recently, the council closed the car park to make it some sort of parklands. So where is that sending them now?? No one wants them around so they send them to local streets, industrial estates, main roads & highways. So really, are the kids driving these cars really 100% to blame?? Or do the government and councils share part of it too.
  17. Hubcaps?? :P Please don't tell me they are chrome. Pics or ban :wink:
  18. Where's the pics?? I wanna see if its worse than my dad garage!! And the nagging never stops, just train your self to tune it out.
  19. It doesn't look too mad but I personally would keep the vents. Better yet stick in KE30 vents, maybe the early ones with the chrome stripe.
  20. Go with whatever your heart tells you to. Just cause someone else had done that colour shouldn't stop you. Will that car and yours ever be side by side?? I assume not, as your in SA and the other is in NSW. The colour I plan to go for my hardtop is Electric Orange. Its seen on the XR5 Ford Focus's. This colour has been done before on a sedan and looks great. Plus I wanted the colour way before that member did it. So no way I'm changing mine. Isn't it funny that Ford comes up with the best Oranges??
  21. WoW mate, thats one HOT KE70!! Is that radiator shroud original?? I don't think I've ever seen one that big.
  22. Maybe its not the cap. Have you thought that the chrome ring mightn't be on properly?? I'm thinking that might be the issue, but off the top of my memory one of my wagons has stains down the side of it, below the filler. I know that my KE30 has that ring glued down, maybe you just need to redo that?
  23. Na, get rid of the swaybar and send it to me :y: lOl No Keep it on. :y:
  24. Yes, you two, lappy one and h1_roll4 1. Tho if he doesn't reply soon his copy will go to someone else.

    Spotted Qld

    I sure as hell wasn't washing. She is really dirty. The closest thing would have been me test fitting the new wheels on the skank.
