It wouldn't urprise me if the fuel light comes on in the ZZE122 with 10 litres to go because thats about when mine comes on in the ZZE123. If I refuel shortly after the fuel light comes on I can only get in about 50 litres. ZZE123 def has a 60L tank.

Here here! Mr Howard did do a pretty good job, although I am totally not into politics.

If i'm able to attend I could also bring a GenIII if thats the theme.

Mick, What was the name of your exhaust bloke again? I have some work coming up for him involving an engine back system. Might get him to make up a Mick spec box for it. Sorry Rob, Haven't been back in the thread til now. I can't remember the name of the dam exhaust place. After consulting yellow pages though I believe its Roadway Mufflers. Yellow pages ad can be found here. I can't remember the owners name though. May have been Geoff although not sure. He should remember the car though. It spent abit of time there. The box I got from him is a Supercat. Model i'm not sure. In other news, this Sunday is looking doable although this is subject to change as I have friends coming to stay for the Crusty Demons show. It just will depend if they will leave to travel home before the cruise or not.

Very handy calculator for finding out what size tyres you should select when moving up/down rim sizes. Simply enter the dimensions of the cars factory rubber and then add the size you were thinking of moving to. It will give you a size by side comparison of all dimensions. http://www.1010tires.com/TireSizeCalculator.asp

Hi Guys, I might just start by saying I have used the search function (with wildcard) and cannot find a single reference to this brand. Whether or not I have spelt the word correctly is another issue altogether. As i'm about due for tyres (225/35/18) I've been doing quite abit of ringing around and researching for a new set of hoops. It seems now the specified size is rarer than when I brought the last set. One retailer really heavily recommended Marangoni's ($240 a corner), which at that point I had never heard of before. From what i've been able to find out so far, is that they are an Italian made high performance tyre and more commonly available here in 18-20inch sizes at 235 and up widths (common with Falcon and Commodore and other large car fitments) Only info i've been able to find from here in Oz is on the LS1 forums and so far feedback is positive. What I'd like to know is if anyone at all has a set of these or know of anyone that has them, i'd be really interested to hear any feedback anyone has.

1st wkd of Feb is a no go for me and the arvo/evening of the 16th.... Apart from that, all good so far.

Now thats entertainment!

Sounds suss....

More info Simo...

Sweet man, sweet. Enjoying a nite in! This rain is the sh!t Thought I better drop in and check on the crew! How them spit roast services goin?

The darker ones for sure. Buona!

What the f@ck be goin on in here?

I've had this noise as well. Its one of two things just the pad clearance on the rear discs or just a build up of pad dust between the pad and the rotor. As stated by the others, you can try giving them a clean out or roughen up.

Duuudes! Whats been crackin? Seems everyone has been quite busy, myself included. I didn't read back through the thread history.... anything been going on? Simo: end up calling that place for a quote on a spitroast???

So far looks like its just me and you Jimmy. White power! Sounds like we will actually be going to sun ourselves in Kingston and drink Orange Mocha Frappucino's! We'll just have to be sure to wear cardigans and skinny leg jeans ;) .....Then maybe look for a Sushi bar

That stuff sounds great. You say you can buy it over the counter? Do you have to buy 20 litres of the stuff though? 5 litres would last me ages! Whats the pricing like?

Very posh wheels! I'd love them on my car, except with Hypersilver centres. Someone round the traps here used to have some 18" Carlssons, 15 spoke, silver with chrome dish. Very classy! Lenso's rock dude! ..........Just ask me ;)

Would be good to see you Dom! So whos in..... can we get a recount?

Heaps of things to take into consideration here! Was the wheel balancing and alignment done correctly, by a reputable person? Hit any gutters or large potholes recently? If you rims have any imperfections, balancing can only correct these to an extent, there can still be imperfections. I once bent a rim on a previous car via a pothole and found that when I changed my tyres shortly after, I could only put it on the back due to it being rough even after a re-balance. If it was on the front you could still feel the slight twitch through the steering wheel. once I managed to find a new rim I got rid of the other completely. As others have said theres other steering components, none of which should be worn being an 05 model, but if you've hit something these parts could definately be affected. This could also be something as simple as going over a speed hump or even a dip too fast. Hope this helps a little.

Spot on there! Post facelift is darker and almost heading towards a gunmetal shade. Very nice I think. One of our Canberra boys (Sheldon - AKA - Order_last_one) has the facelift silver and its one tuff looking machine, although he has some nice Mods too!

Where you been spotting me dude? MT/JT, Rob, Sheldon and I are all pretty spread out.... From Tuggeranong to Gungahlin and everywhere in between I think. You must rack up sum K's dude!

Thanks! Please keep me posted, i'll be in Sydney on and off for the next month or so.

LOL...... lovin the soccer horn Jimmy! So many memories of hometown soccer and the numerous counts of abuse from the sideline crews. Not to mention the traditional victory flares!

What year model is each? Both imports? How many km's on the actual vehicles? Location?
