I was (or am) more into grunge more than anything and the early 90s produced the best there are still some bands that people like to call grunge rock aka nikelback but come on really, it just is not the same. it brings tears to my eyes when you look at the sh!t that is in the charts today I mean it is 90% just wat 13 year old girls buy and it really reflects in the music

does early 90s count cos I love that era

anynews on power upgrades particularly the v8s surely ford will have to match the ls2s or better them while they are at it

how the hell is zapxr6t getting those awesome times from the falcons , I really would like some help cos I have 713kw ,nitrous, slicks and everything and the best I can do is a 11.3 I think maybe the ratios are too short cos I am spiining pretty much through the fi rst 2 gears and sometimes when I drop it back to 3rd it will screech. I also have to make 2 changes to 100 which cant be good. also does anyone elses brakes make a bumpy screehing noise when they brake ie not a consistent screech

has anybody heard anything about the v8s for copperhead or will they just bend over and continue to get taken by hsv or even Expensive Daewoo

that sounds like a dam good time for a stocker I ran into the 9s for my 530kw foon mind you I was deliberately trying to make an awesome replay with sideways sliding and hard braking etc so I would say I could easily get into the 7s. who else reckons we should start a mini comp at nurbugring with our p.b. s

by the way any news on ps3

really that is dodgy as , but my ps2 is pretty new about 18 months I just meant that in general the ps2 is pretty old technology wise

I bought my copy from eb yesterday and wen I played it I did not think that the colours of the graphics were as good as gt3. but then I got used to it and now I admit the graphics are very good especialyy considering it is an old ps2 I thought that my phoon was fast at 12.6 quarter mile man I really need to get some more credits my fav tracks of the new ones is nubugring that is just crazy with the foon. my foon does not seem to understeer much cos I changed the driving aids the suspoension and the weight distribution. oh yeah does anyone know wat that track in italy is called again cos it is another gooden but I am getting annoyed at the power figures cos my foon has 540kw on the mods power graph yet when I finish a race and the black screen before the replay comes on it says 394 or something

call me stupid but wat is esp cos it sounds like something from a discman

and it should not be able to beat an xr8

I really do not understand ford how can it be that hard to find a better diff WTF

yay lets get an awd ba so it will get even heavier and ruin the fun I really do not know why some of yoiu guys are so set on seeing an awd ba . I think you have this illusion that it will make it faster but just look at the coupe 4 270 kw and its far slower than a 235kw monaro

ive personally noticed that holden/hsv drivers are more arrogant and cocky than rex or sti drivers. I even had a run with an sti on the freeway a while bgack ,but he had 4 guys in his car I had just me so I figured that I give it a go,we were both doing bout 110 or thereabouts when he just gave me a friendly smile so did his mates and then he popped his clutch in and reved it a bit to signal a race. I just dropped it back to 3rd and took off he alredy had his clutch in so he would have had to engage 3rd fairly quickly after me. I held 3rd right out and into 4th he had pretty much leveled with me as I shifted , I backed off by about 180 -190 and he had a car lenght or a bit less on me. we slowed down and then I said to him that was great is it stock, he said as per factory I just shook my head and smiled. I mean if he had just 1 person in the car and the race had started at lower speeds or evenworse off the line I would have been kilkled by a a far bigger distance. but anyway as far as sti drivers I have not found anything wrong with them I find it is more drivers in grey imports which are older and cheaper and have more to prove are worse than sti drivers. and of course Expensive Daewoo drivers

who do you guys call when you get robbed though? cmon the cops have a job to do and that is to protect the sfety of people and road users are people too

also 'theone' boss motors do react well to mods (and mileage) I have only simple mods but it pulls much harder than when I bought it. of course it does not have anywhre near the bang for your buck potential of the t though

rednut once the underdrive pulleys are in it will be pulling around 300fwkw so I dont really get the question of whether it is faster or not of course it would be, I think your question should ask whether it was good value or not.also if anything it will definately be better on fuel with a less restrictive exhaust and apparently the underdrive pulleys will help too. I am thinking seriously about the undedrive pulleys as well

I cannot believe how inadiquate americans are at designing cars,and eatv8 those pics that glenxr6t posted of the yank cars are nothing like those euro cars you posted , you see with the yank cars they try make cars like the euro style dimensions but they do it in a distasteful way I mean it makes me sick looking at those yank pics yet although those euro cars are architecturally similar it is in a tasteful manner. that is just wat I think anyway and as for the falcon staying full australian I say that yes the design should but I think that it can stay australian and still be exporeted, though it will be hard top ba ,they should just bring xa coupes back

I reckon fpv have restricted power in the typhoon because they are to scared of the threat of gm releasing the tt36. so by hsv not being pressed for performance ,which was fpvs only chance at threatening hsv, cos the gt certainly does not do that. I know hsv have said they have no plans to release the tt36 or any hot six but I am sure that if fpv could match and even beat the performance of their major weapon the 6 litre that they would think again about a hot six. and even if captain crennan says no Expensive Daewoo are capable of doing it and they have no major preference of a car being a v8 only. so I rekon it is only a matter of time before the dark side releases a quick six so fpv should take the lead but if I know fpv well enough they will be happy enough to merely match performance not set new benchmarks like hsv continues to. that's just wat I think

parking at a set of lights is a bit dangerous isnt it

yep an au ,are they even capable of reaching speeds to do that

I think pretty much every name I can think of has been said

I want one now

I live close by but will not be able to make it which is a shame but there are some good roads around there some nice twisty bits and a really long straight with good long distance visibility that is just some of the roads I can think of. if you go over the morpeth bridge( that is if you survive) take the next right follow that road until you come to a bridge and there is a small town called hinton, then at the bridge take the left follow that road and you can choose where you want to go but some roads are a bit bumpy. oh and the gaol is not bad for a look around pity I cant say the same for morpeth
