alarum

Wow. I was considering taking this course! Sounds like fun - but now I'm not eligible for the discount; I'm 25 now =( But my premium goes down now *cheer*

happy birthday to me (yesterday :)

I'm hopefully going to be replacing the strut hat on my left suspension, as it's been identified as being "crunchy" when going over bumps. Is this just a case of removing the strut, unscrewing the hat and swapping it over? I reaaaallly hope so =) And does anywhere know where I could get my hands on some second hand suspension for my rears? I'd check pick'n'throwitoverthefence but the only MCV20 they had in there was in the lot of cars to be re-sold.

Is this the trip to QLD? Quite possibly I'll be in for the ride...

You only want 2 colours on your deck? The newest Clarion's have a 16.7million color display :D

I was looking around the engine bay of my car -- there is absolutely no spot that I can see that I could use for installing a CAI!

all I can say is good luck ;) I need to replace the leather cover of the seat itself -- that's not going to be cheap! -- Brad

But... but... you've got purple led's ... not red ;-) "Roxanne, you don't have to wear that dress tonight..."

A machine that runs a blade across the surface of the discs, to remove glazing and so that the brake pads can bite into the discs a little better. Usually removes 1-2mm a run. == better braking power

Pics!

My reception is always good going through the M2 tunnel until I reach teh absolute middle. Craps out for a second or so, and then gets better as I reach the exit. And my antenna only goes to about a third of it's height. Needs to be replaced.

Yeahhh wasn't happy... was carless for 6 weeks. AND they shafted me on one of the rims. So now I've got a stock Vienta Grande rim and 3 ROH rims. Hacky.

Ok, I've been giving her a little bit of a squeeze before cranking over the ignition, but never fully to the floor. I'll try that out. 1. Crashed. Check the link in my signature, you'll see some horrible pics. 2. The idle-up or "auto-choke" is to warm the engine up while it's below optimal operating temperature. Once this has been reached, idle returns to 1000rpm. Gen 4 v6, like yours. :) I had a friend clean out the throttle body, and while this made ignition a little smoother when she was already warm, it didn't really help cold starts. I'll try resetting the ECU. Just disconnect the battery for 1/2 hour, right? Leasaunce: I'm at Doonside, maybe you wanna take a trip down the M2 and come visit one day, yeah? ;)

That looks nice man! Got the Soarer shape to it.

Hoi boys and girls, Ok, so some of you may remember when I smooshed my baby... Since then she hasn't been able to start cold without a foot on the accelerator keeping the revs. Can anybody point me in the right direction as to what it could be? If I keep my foot on the accelerator for 15-30 seconds she will sit on a grand, but she used to sit on 1400, 1500 when cold by herself! Any tips would be appreciated - Brad

Mmm.. I saw a gen4 with a mesh grill... I want one! Looks nice!

+1 very nice

Ay. I've found if I let the V cruise along at 2k it's a smoother ride, but if I push her to knock a gear back and get up higher in the rev range she kind of struggles... and makes me think my fuel needle is dropping rapidly

Daaaaaaamn

Damn. Forgot about this entirely. How did it go?

My Vienta has the 1MZ-FE and from what I've read it's more of a cruiser than a racer... but lighter alloy++ Should be a bit of a beast still, a bit of vroom in a lighter car

Damn, this sounds good. Count me in.

Damn. Crunchy cars make for good eatin' with Ketchup.

The point is, I'm not trying to push onto people that I'm abiding with the law when clearly Grey_Rolla wasn't. That's all. Anyway, I added slapstick. He advised other P-platers to keep spare P-plates in his car. Such good advice, don't you think? EOS.

Does the shell look a little bit warped to anyone else? Does to me -- sounds impressive but looks are the killer here... Gimme a Black Gen5... *dribbles*
