  1. Ah the joys of owning a boat!!! They're an endless money pit, piss it off & stick to the land!
  2. Mate take it to your fair trading office & get quotes from the opposition, as well as quotes for the oil. I would & I'd really press the issue. I'd also inform Ford Austalia & see what they have to say. Russ
  3. The 1mil includes Fords!!! Holdens secret is they've got Dave to do their ads. How can you not take notice of Expensive Daewoo with him there!! Russ
  4. Was it longer than a stock rod??
  5. This guy must be a tosser, 10kw loss through the drive train in an auto!!! Just common sense will tell you that you lose at least 30-40 kw. Russ
  6. They're the same bolt pattern as 2wd Hilux wheels & a few others They look good on the RAV. Russ
  7. The 2005 Mustang PCM is different to our PCM. Ours is some sort of combination of the Mustang/Lincoln etc & the EEC. Basically they're not the same PCM. A mate of mine has a 2 Cousins who work for Ford in the UK, one is involved in engine management design & the other is in development of body/chassis I've also been speaking with 1 company in Europe & 3 companies in the US & what I can gather so far they are different to the ones in the US. I do know that there is one company developing program to PCM direct from PC. Russ

    Will someone just take it to Macquarie Fields & leave it there for the night in the street. That will solve all the problems guaranteed! Best of all you'll get a new car out of it, just make sure you remove all your personal belongings! Russ
  11. Good to see, I bet you were wondering what all the fuss is about the XR6T. Now you know as it should be kicking in at 2000 RPM with max torque!!! Russ
  12. No one will carjack my wife in the T, who'd want 2 screaming kids??? My red cattle dog is the best deterent, obviously can't have a dog in the car all the time, but she'll rip any poor bas*ard to shreds who hops in the car without me or the wife! Personally every new car should have a tracking system built into the computer management similar to trucks etc. & if it's removed te car won't move. Russ

    Quick Poll

    I saw a set forsale in the trading post for $1000 a couple of months back, tyres & rims used for 1 day!
  14. It's all a bluff, Stoddard just ruffled their feathers. He could do the same in the UK & numerous other countries. The law is the law & FIA can't change that. What Stoddard did was wrong & I reckon he won't be around in F1 too much longer, after all he didn't comply to 2005 spec & it only took him overnight to rectify the cars so they could comply. He should have changed the spec & saved all the crap in court, FIA weren't even notified of a court appearance. Minardi don't have enough cash for R&D for new cars & before the end of last year had every team bosses signature for them to run the 2004 car, but some team bosses have changed & the new ones won't sign. Ferrari refused to sign his latest approach & personally they shouldn't. This sport is for the big boys not the wanna be's. Russ
  15. It can't b running any boost, is he using lots of fuel??? Tell him to take it back to Ford as it is way underpowered, and tell him to do it quick before the NA crew think they're fast..LOL Also he needs to bring the revs over 2000 RPM for a good launch (bring it into boost) & be in the max torque range. Russ
  16. C'mon mate tell her what she's getting next, don't ask her! I plant the seed & just go & buy it, works for me!
  17. Did they have the XR6 Turbo track car there??? It should have a roll cage in it & rear seats! I think from memory it's blue! Russ
  18. To my knowledge there are 2 types of write offs, repairable write off & unrepairable write off Russ
  19. Bloody good job!!! What intercooler did you fit??? Did you do any mods while you had it apart??? Russ
  20. Mate use the Search button, you'll find heaps of info. As for best, that's a matter of opinion & believe me there are plenty of people in here with opinions! Do a search on Xede, Unichip & edit But personally at this point of time I'd go an Xede. Russ
  21. Go you good thing!!!! Love ya stuff mate, good to see!!! Just need to get it on Blokes world, so all us uncooth yobbos can see it on the idiot box!!! Russ
  22. Just interested to see if anyone actually is into circuit racing. If so what category & what vehicle you running?? I'm looking into racing in the Qld Gemini Racing, they seem to be the best entry level as they go off a minimum weight for driver & car (That way I can still enjoy a beer or two) I've just got to convince the financial controller, that it'll be good. Doesn't help having a baby & a 3 Y.O. to cart around either. Cheers Russ
  23. Mate I got your point! Like all makes there are wankers who drive their products & you happened to have the great opportunity of making a little punk STI driver eat his words. There are even wankers like that with XR6T's (Just remember the tossers posting in your exede ad, they all had to try & ruin your sale) I wished I was there to see him look like the tosser he is! Russ
  24. Subies are unreal on the track! I've got 2 mates running sti's in Improved production, they kick ass off the lights & around the corners. Their only problem is they have to run a restricter in the turbo which limits their top end power & the Rotaries fly past them down the straights. Basically if they weren't restrictedn they'd be at the front. Russ
  25. I'd love to know how much boost variation there is between stock cars?? Russ
