Lumpen

Just saying Hi again...I dont feel like going through all my Missed Posts at the moment...that is, all 22 pages of new Topics...let alone new Posts! So...Have I missed any interesting posts since the 21 of July? Cheers, Brendan

Ive seen a few XE and XF Utes running about with 5.0 Crate motors from the states....I suppose the sedans are the same?

AHHHHH...Evil American Companies....Overtaking us all....Next we'll all be eating MacDonalds and driving GMs and...Oh...Ford's... Where to my donuts stand?

Ah...On closer inspection: Every Powerchip performance software upgrade sold to customers residing in North America comes with an unconditional 14-day money back guarantee. I discovered this little page by tracking through the Aussie links, this could be very misleading to the untrained, over zealous, under boosted eye...

Never thought of that Northerly but in Hindsight you may be right, I think powerchip are getting Big in the States, courtesy of Stuart Appleby(I think),his one million dollars and his BMW M5. Here the full page link chaps, maybe you can read better into it: http://www.powerchipgroup.com/products/warranty.asp Perhaps it may be worth dropping an email to them and enquiring?

Gee, that the nicest thing anybody's said to Ken since they asked him to "Take that cat out of the Glad Wrap Now"...

Told whilst being tied up?

Lifted from www.powerchipgroup.com, something to consider when while applying 2.7 Bar of Boost :roll: .... New Car Warranty Information: If your car is covered by a new or dealer warranty, the dealer may not void the warranty simply because you have upgraded the software controlling the car’s ECU. The Specialty Equipment Manufacturer Association (SEMA) has made the following statements regarding such aftermarket products: "...The vehicle manufacturer is not allowed to void the vehicle warranty just because aftermarket equipment is installed on the vehicle..." "...In cases where such a failed aftermarket part is responsible for a warranty claim, the (vehicle) manufacturer must arrange a settlement with the part manufacturer, but the new vehicle warrant is not void under the law..." "...If the failure to honor a claim involves the new-vehicle warranty, and it appears that the (vehicle) manufacturer is improperly denying a claim, the incident should be reported to the Federal Trade Commission (FTC)..."

Im up to about 290,000 or so... Oh Wait, you meant NEW cars.....

Heh Heh...My L's car was a 400HP 351 XC GS but now I drive an XF :(

Fiddling around with Airbags and stuff may account for the Jump from 800 odd to the $1000?

20PSI later... Vroooom.....WHOOOOOOSH....Doooonk......PSSSSHHHHHH...Thump...Grrriind...bleah... .fizzle... Walk walk walk.....

Well aren't we a bunch of smart lil' beggars! Very, Very Swish Chaps. A job well done!

Im poor(or a student), therefore I own an XF but I dream, therefore I WANT a BA...

I prefer Archival Mars Black...

Do these thingys have a suppressor on them?I know before we had one on Dad's XC 351 it sounded like we were Supercharged or something If not they're really cheap and available almost anywhere!

Gee Life must be sooooo very hard for you each morning! Me GREEN Boy!

I see hows it a V8 supercar in disguise...it hides behind an extra 123Cubic Inches...

This thing really P*****S me of with my car...I can scrub the windscreen with Glass Cleaner..Metho and Newspaper...Flamethrower...and the next day there is this thin filmy scratchy sh*t on the windscreen. I finally cottoned on to what it is when I cleaned it AGAIN the otherday...Its Salt Spray from the ocean!Almost everynight there is a Massive Swell and wind blowing the spray my way (200M as the crow flies...only heath between me and it)or a bloody fog that you can season chips with. Probably also explains why my car is corroding like no other...

I do volunteer work with a Computer Refurbishing Mob...cos we live in the Scottish Town in Australia(Maclean) all we get donated is old 386's and 486's...(Damn scottish Tight-Arses)...the point being we have 5 1/4's out our ears. I think I can help you.

Just think boys...A little bit of Expensive Daewoo in every turbo <<Assembles guide missile proof mobile bunker and heads for the hills>> Seems one nifty idea though

THANK YOU VERY MUCH PLONKY! I had some error when trying to pay over the internet so that's why I'm heading to the RTA in Old Fashioned Person.Ive got the Pink Slip and Dad is driving me to get the Green Slip now, then the 1/2 hour trip STRAIGHT to the RTA. I dont need Durries...Yet. Hmmm isnt it funny...$440 ticket for Unreg, $440 for Fail to Pay Road Tax, $440 for Uninsured" and $440 for my CTP...Conspiracy theory!!!!!

thankfully I live in the boonies...but I know its still a big risk. Pro's n Cons.

Yeah its got plates,I just read the 21st of June as the 23rd,til the weekend...Thanks for that help though... No Officer It's not illegal....So dude from the net told me so...

My car is unregistered and I need to re-register it tomorrow...Ive got the Pink slip and then green slip.Is it legal for me to drive it U/R to the nearest RTA(Im in NSW btw)to get it done.I know in Qld about 18mnths ago a friend and I drove our Bussh*tme Wanga from his house(Half Drove...Half Pushed :lol: )got our Roadworthy and then drove down the Registering Place, Registered it and got plates etc.This was because we alrady had insurance.... Basically can I do this same caper in NSW or am I just going to risk it, take the back roads and if worst comes to worst, hope for an understanding officer???
