  1. This plate sure as hell isn't available... aaaaw yeeeeaah. :lolcry:
  2. I spent 10 days in Finland during the summer break... It was fun :lolcry:

  4. Dude you have management skills, take them somewhere where you'll be more appreciated by your employer, rather than being an employee number on a soulless multinational's payroll list.... You'll feel better about your life and your career if you're doing something personally fulfilling and worthwhile. Serving swill to pigs is neither of these things.
  5. Ya see... the problem with working at maccas is, you are dealing with people stupid enough to buy the shit in the first place... Leave
  6. American inginuity
  7. sniff n stiff
  8. Did you run around it three times clutching a dead chicken and reciting Macbeth?
  9. I assume you lot are talking about some sort of fooseball game... I wasn't aware of it. I was re-arranging my collection of rare and exotic lint.
  10. There are AE86 Coupes in GTA4 The decals on the door have something about a 20valve and some other random go fast terminology
  11. build a sub box on each side, utilising the void space between the rear wheelarches and the tailgate. apply lots of padding and crushed velvet to interior install bean bags = No fuss party bus :yes:
  12. Smashed it, first go. Failed my learners exam maybe 7 times though... in retrospect I probably should have read the rule book beforehand.
  13. Matt black, red stripe. A-Team muthaf@$kas. :yes:
  14. Friday arvo.... beautiful weather, bbq cranking, few people dropping around... Need somewhere to chill large amounts of booze. Have a spare KE up the back... Hmmm Eskyrolla :S Note bottle opener on keyring. :)
  15. Also I think you should patent the word "chuggering" cos I reckon you just invented it.
  16. Oh hells yes... Original Gangster :poke: (note period correct spelling of 'gangster' as opposed to 'gangsta') I'd love to roll up for a night on the town in the Dodge... dressed up full 30's Chicago style... zoot suit etc... would be awesome :D Nice score dude.
  17. Mrs Shades works in a bottle shop and is copping all sorts of grief from customers about the premix prices... Like SHE was directly responsible or something... I hate humans. I think its about time we rounded up all the dickheads, herded them into the desert and threw rocks at them.
  18. Machine the front, turn 'em backwards :D
  19. Those Toyota ones came out on a few models... but they're most likely from an 80's Celica. 14" x 5.5" Quite a few guys here run them... they look ok with a good polish and some lower profile tyres.
  20. I love escorts... I used to own a couple in the 90's, before they all rusted into the ground... (along with the geminis and datto 1600s) They're unreliable, flimsy, annoying to work on and hard to find parts for... but jesus they've got grip. I like the MkII in proper rally spec... front end jacked up, 2 deg neg camber and spaced out... rear end so low and soft its grading the road behind it.... awesome :D
  21. Hi kids, uncle shady here again. Today, we're going to learn about the history of Drifting. Before D1GP, before Takumi, before the HachiRoku and the mountain roads of Gifu, before clapped out S13 silvias collecting the armco in the Adelaide hills, even before Americans in honda civics, wet roads and e-brakes... there was rally. Back in my day, we called drifting "powersliding" ... and it was universally regarded as a very slow and inefficient method of negotiating a corner. It was, nevertheless, fun to watch. :D
  22. Welcome to Toyotaland, where everything really is as simple as it seems. Basically, pick an engine with an 'A' in it, and it'll bolt n. You could rebuild the current engine, but personally I reckon the 16V are getting a bit long in the tooth... fine for a rwd conversion in a shitter ke70, but in a newer car like the '92 I'd seize the opportunity to upgrade to something a bit more smooth and refined like a 20v. Silvertop are cheap as chips, rev like buggery and won't give you any dramas. Blacktop are even better, slightly pricier. Just make sure you get it comp tested first, and pop the rocker cover off too see how clean it is. The Japanese aren't renowned for their fastidious servicing habits and a lot of the import engines we get haven't seen an oil change in 50 thousand k's.
  23. Thats a good price for the Chaser... TRD model has a few little bonus bits like torsen LSD and stiffer springs. Both of which you'd replace anyway, but even so it looks like the original buyer ticked a few boxes in the options list... sunroof, rear wiper etc... its a series 2 as well. Being that particular colour the paint is pretty much guaranteed to be shagged, but if you budget a grand or two to clean it up, and a bit more for some nice wheels, you'd have a very tidy car for less than 20k. I really like the BZR Levins... I've often thought about getting one for Mrs Shades... if only I could find a way to (relatively cheaply) convert it to all wheel drive.
  24. I don't pay any bucks for my banging. I've always believed its fundamentally wrong to pay for something you can get for free if you just put a small amount of effort in.
  25. You reckon THAT truck folds up, check this bad boy out
