  1. Check this Monster out on the dyno. I don't have any sound at work but looks pretty cool. It looks a little like a Mustang or something. And sorry if it has been posted before. Mick daldyno041.wmv
  2. Me thinks I might have to make a trip out for this! Will it still be togeather at about 7pm ? I don't think I will be able to get out there untill then.
  3. Oops my post ended up in the quote!
  4. Do you work for McDonalds?? I work for Domino's Pizza and that's where we are having our World Wide Rally, its the only place big enough. We were planning on staying there for nearly a week than heading to NY and LA, I wanna try and see a Nascar race when I am there, see how it goes though. Dazza. <{POST_SNAPBACK}> Dazza, Yeh, my Wife runs one of her parents franchise's. So we went over for the convention. It is just amazing over there. Basicly our itinery was L.A. for a few days on way there to break up the big flight all the way to the East Coast and then we were in Orlando for about a week with 4 days of convention and lots of shopping at the outlets in between. Then a few days at Walt Disney World. Then onto Dallas for a day. From there we went to San Fransisco for about a week. We were originally then going onto Vegas but we thought the kids might be doing it tough so we came home, but next time we are going there for sure!

    What A 'ute'

    For those of you who need a nice dual cab ute but need a good size tray and a bit of grunt for towing! Have a look at this for a dual cab! Sorry if it has been posted before, but I havn't seen it. XTFamily.pdf
  7. Mate was there for about a week last April/May and spent a quick 3 days with the kids and only got to do a quick overview of Majic Kingdom, Animal Kingdom and MGM Studios. It is just that big and I plan on going back for another look. We had the Majic Kingdom Park booked out through McDonalds World Convention one night and it is amazing at night. The Fireworks display puts annything to shame every night and yes seeing the castle was quite a sight! My daughter was dumb founded! Orlando is basicly built around it!
  8. Thanks for the pic ,considerd the evo one but now that I have seen the nissan one going more that way. <{POST_SNAPBACK}> stang, I do agree that nissan one does look good and I think will suit the T. Let us know how you get on and don't forget the pic's! Mick
  9. I think it would look good and have a purpose! And therefor not RICE! I found a web site that sells a lot of vents etc. www.xracing.com.au Here are some of the vents!
  10. I am starting to research for some replacements for the SP9000's on the factory 18's. I was thinking of going for the Pirrelli P-Zero Nero's as I have been told they are the ! But they seem to only do a 235 or 255 for the 18's. I would rather buy a decent brand as I think you get what you pay for in tyres. And I have never really been a fan of Falkens etc. But I am also a little dissapointed in the life I have had out of the Dunlops (22000) and also they seem very noisy. A mate of mine has a GTS coupe and he runs the Pirrelli's and say they are quite, hold on and have great wear, also they are only $380 each where as the 9000's are $480 (approx priceing only, might be a little cheaper when I actually say yep put em on) But I was also wondering whether you can fit a 255 on the standard 18's. What has everyone else gone for and can a larger tyre fit?
  11. It's not SILVER in colour by any chance is it, and his name in Shane P. ?
  12. If they just stopped *beep* footing around and put a real clutch in the thing from the start they would be right! And not try an put some light weight *beep*, clutch in that the girls wont whinge about when they drive it to the shops. Just put one in that will handle the power and torque and be done with it, and if you don't like the heavy clutch buy an auto something else. It is supposed to be a street registered GTP type race car and they need a decent clutch! Just my 0.5c worth anyway.
  13. Well it is true! But if you think about it, it does make sense. More weight, extra people, an add in a bigger donk and and more power and it will last longer but give the same feeling of pace with the xtra weight. And beleive me I have it on good authority that it is true!
  14. It also has a 6L. engine in it aswell! Apparently ihas more power and the bigger donk for longevity.! (I think that's how you spell it)
  15. Just clocked 21000k's and got mine in Oct '03. Not too bad cosidering I drive it quite a lot. But then again most of our friends live in the same estate as us so we usually walk over and get on the pi$$! Mick
  16. Good stuuf! I have also thought about this, but just havn't got around to it! How did you cut your hole so neatly? Hole saw?
  17. There is actually another shot in the series where Anna is adjusting herself so to speak and in the process showing her stuff!
  18. Bugger, I can't make it now. Have the builder coming around to sign up for our new house. Have fun guy's and will get to come on a cruise one day! Mick
  19. So if it can be used on upto 5 cars, If I buy one for my Auto XR6T and then in 2 years I upgrade to a manual GT can it still be used? I guess CAPA or Herrord's would need to reset it to suit (probably at an extra charge). Can anyone tell me what would need to happen and if it could happen? I guess at worst case it could be sold!
  20. WTF!
  21. I was in a Black T with 18's. Not sure if you saw it? But I must admit it did sound very sweet indeed!
  22. Yep, that's it! www.vdc.com.au
  23. Yeh, I looked at them but they are about $100grand there is a place in Melbourne I think there name is VDC (Vehicle Development Corporation) or something. I will do a search and see if I can find the info I had! Mick
  24. Driving to work this morning I was parked at the lights at Nottingham Road and Beaudesert Road (Brisbane Southside) intersection and a Silver Typoon turned left off Beaudesert Road down Nottingham and gave it a bit of a BOOTFUL and I tell you what it sounded very nice. Was it anybody from here? Mick
  25. Come on Goldie, give us the guff! Did you have a run in with someone from the club or something?
