  1. Aww but I like your street :lovin: Theres some bogan around here in an R31 that kicks the clutch at every single corner he goes around. Fken retard! At least I've found out where he lives now :lol:
  2. *Snip* If you wanna slag out peoples cars find somewhere else to do it. If you want this open again Evan, send me a PM.
  3. Looks like a Cusco prefab bolt-in. Some people value their dash more than others. I've never seen one in a roll over accident so I can't really comment on their effectiveness but its gotta be better than nothing at all.
  4. LOL best motivational poster EVER!
  5. I thought 289 was all but dead and Outlaw 10.5 was all the rage now? Whatever class you end up in, its a recipe for success.
  6. Theres a thread view mode where you can always have the first post displayed no matter which page you're on. If you go to the top of the thread and to the options drop down box and then select "Linear+".
  7. :jamie:
  8. You're not in trouble at all. What I was saying is, for anyone else posting in this thread please don't provide any way of identifying the wrecker you're talking about.
  9. Yea geforce these days but I was talking about back when it was a little untubbed runner. Watch the video when you get a chance and you'll see :jamie: Scott Pender is the previous owners name but I think it ran factory panels back then. Just call PAC I recon. They should be helpful if you're prepared to buy through them.
  10. Nah it was GRIMAS before it was sold. I don't think it goes by any name these days. Quick run considering its running a clutch shifted supra 5spd!
  11. Defamation/Libel discussion split off here: http://www.rollaclub.com/board/?showtopic=33880 This topic may continue on the proviso that you make absolutely no indication of the name, location, ownership or any other identifying features of the establishment you are talking about. If you do, fully expect to see a Banned logo on your profile. Yes, I'm that serious.
  12. Look where the bill of rights got the UK. They're now so paranoid about infringing other peoples rights that the very thing they were aiming for was eliminated by their bill of rights. IMHO a bill of rights is not the right way for Australia to go. Edit: I should point out that a bill of rights doesn't remove the possibility of being sued for defamation. Recently in the UK Simon Singh (a scientist) was sued successfully for libel by the British Chiropractic Association for the following which was published in The Guardian:
  13. So go to bed instead of sitting on Rollaclub/whatever else when you get home? You really don't seem to contribute anything useful at that time of night anyway. Mind you, just going back over some of your posts and I'm starting to think thats normal for you. I hate to turn people away but for your sanity and ours, just go to bed.
  14. Unfortunately as the operator of the site I'm an easy target for litigation so you'll have to forgive me if I'm a little overzealous in protecting myself from lawsuits. There was a case in Australia earlier this year where an attempt was made to take a forum owner to court. Thankfully for him the guy filing the lawsuit didn't do the paperwork correctly and it was thrown out. I followed this VERY closely when it was happening and was even prepared to donate money if it went to trial. http://www.smh.com.au/technology/technolog...l4t.html?page=1 http://www.zgeek.com/forum/f60/update-in-t...-battle-t84864/ From the SMH article: Theres also the case of 2Clix, a software company that tried to sue Whirlpool.net.au (probably the largest forum in Australia) for a couple of members who posted about how poor their software and support was. This lawsuit WAS filed correctly and looked like it would go to court (I think it did actually have a mention or two in the Supreme Court in Brisbane). In the end 2Clix made such a bad name for themselves they dropped the lawsuit (yay) and then eventually declared bankruptcy because they had few customers left after the media coverage. http://whirlpool.net.au/news/?id=1753 http://whirlpool.net.au/news/?id=1755 So yes, the potential threat is real. Even if the lawsuit does get thrown out in the end, I have to defend myself in order for it to get to that stage. In order to do that I need to hire lawyers. Lawyers cost money and seen as Rollaclub doesn't exactly operate in the black that ends up coming out of my pockets. Don't get me wrong, I'd love to be able to let you say where the good and bad wreckers/mechanics/whatever are but the law doesn't offer myself enough protection to allow me to allow you to do that. Sorry.
  15. Yea, no. I prefer not to be sued thanks all the same. Edit: This was split off from the thread here: http://www.rollaclub.com/board/index.php?showtopic=33836
  16. ECHO Echo echo
  17. Personally I think they all look dreadful. Cheap knockoffs, the lot of them. The only one that even comes close to looking good is #2 because its actually a pretty close copy of SSR's Type C. Still doesn't look anywhere near as good as the original.
  18. *waves magic wand*
  19. Nah... 51UUT SLU77 says slut!
  20. You're barely even scratching the surface as far as lift and shaving goes. Definitely check but I can't say I can think of anyone bending valves in a K motor.

  22. BlindKidSeeks Personally I think just leave it. Painting plastics can go disasterously wrong and leave you with a car that has a poor resale value. The photos in the tutorial thread you posted are too poor too show up the inperfections that will invariably be there. And what about in 5 years time when the paint decides to flake off?
  23. Silvertop 4A-GE + T50: 155kg SR20DE + FS5W71C: 183kg Difference: 28kg T50: 29kg FS5W71C: 44kg Difference: 15kg So of the 28kg difference 15kg is in the gearbox behind the firewall the remaining 13kg I suspect is actually low in the engine with the forged full counter crank (16kg alone! 4AG is ~11kg so theres 5kg) and the crank girdle (don't have a spare one to weigh :P). Probably a little bit in the flywheel too, they're fairly large and hefty but behind the front axle. I don't think you will notice, you'll be too busy enjoying the awesomeness. Then again, I am biased :D
  24. wow facebook search sucks :P
