  1. What if you're a raging ohmo?
  2. Yeah I know, I just haven't really heard anyone else use that word, except in the media.
  3. Are you my mum cos she used to use that word a lot?
  4. It's just a thing to check man. Sometimes a bit of corrosion will stop it working even if it is plugged in.
  5. Is the trigger wire on the starter connected?
  6. I've got 3 phase here bro. I'm gonna crank the fark out of everything, weld some sh*t at 200 amps and boost the hws during the day just for lols.
  7. Lol I didn't yank them out, I just gave them a gentle tug in the name of science. It's gonna be hot af next week so I'm glad I fixed it.
  8. Lmao a big farken spark and a loud pop came off it when I shorted it out. The aircon sh*t itself and a wire had deteriorated and unplugged itself from the capacitor. I cleaned it up, put a new pluggy bit on the wire, plugged it in and now it's working. That's beer worthy right? Let's hope the missus thinks so too
  9. How farked out of ten would I be if this sucker zapped me? I just discharged it so it ain't gonna, but I'm still curious.
  10. That's a strong assumption about a bunch of dudes sharing a camper. But yeah the whole cruising over or driving over idea basically sucks balls for the cost and discomfort of it all. I've driven across the nullabor 4 times and that was 4 times too many.
  11. http://www.bus4wdhire.com.au/21-seat-bus-hire.htm Based of this^ info, driving from Melbourne to Albany and back will cost $1700 in excess km and use about 1500 litres of fuel which would be around $2800. http://www.crownrentals.com.au/rcm/step2.php#results Based on this^ info the total cost of hire would be about $2000. There's $6500 just for the bus and fuel and you won't be sleeping in the bus. Ain't nobody got time for that homeless sh*t. Gotta wash your ass somewhere not to mention having to jerk the gherkin. Accomodation, food and beer can be done for minimum $200 per day per person. There's $2200 per person. Not including getting into rw, misc money or emergency flights back, we're already up to $17500 in total or $3500 per person for 5 people to go. Rough numbers but pretty close to what it would cost. It might be better to hire a freaking giant rv? Cos I like googling and adding sh*t up, I'll see if I can work that out. I changed my mind I cbf adding up anything else but I did find this. There is rv's that sleep 6 adults with unlimited km for about $1500p/w. That would cut about $700 off the total hire and obviously halve the daily per person cost. That's much more reasonable.
  12. I don't think that organising a cruise to Racewars would be very successful. Reason being, it is a massive drive from Adelaide (27hrs), let alone Eastern states. It's a 4 day (35hrs) drive from Melbourne plus 3 days at rw then 4 days back. You could shave off some time with the bus idea. It could be slightly prohibitive cost wise too as fuel ain't cheap and 10 nights accommodation etc will easily run to several thousand per person if taking individual vehicles. Also having to deal with possible breakdowns could turn out to be somewhat difficult. I'm keen to get over there next year with either the territory, falcon or both, but I wouldn't want to organise a "cruise" as such, based upon my previous comments.
  13. Sorted then. Haha a screamer pipe can get a bit obnoxious after a while.
  14. I don't see why we can't do that next year. We can see my territory eat all of arronms cars for breakfast on the vmax.
  15. Yep it's what he said ^. You could just replace the rear heat shield for a pic if the mechanic is ok with that.
  16. Coke and hookers? I didn't look at the dates when I committed to a maybe. I've got kids in school and the missus has work, so a trip from Adelaide to Melbourne in the middle of the week is out of the question. We'll have a beer or 50 one day.
  17. Average wage is about $25 per hour. Ain't no way you're making 100k per year on that. You'd make just under half if you worked 38 hours per week, 52 weeks of the year.
  18. If you include one of the numbers past the decimal point.
  19. He couldn't handle the multitasking of leaning on the shovel and using his phone at the same time.
  20. Storage is too small and should have a pcie ssd rather than a peasant worthy m.2 version.
