  1. Hell yeah!!! Been waiting for this for a while. Weird how it never occurred to me to actually suggest it though.
  2. Definitely keen. I've got a 3 room tent, about 15" x 6", scored from work. Haven't used it enough. Sounds like a good excuse to crank it up.
  3. Shit you don't make it easy, do you?
  4. Or straight from the police. How many desirable cars are driven with no insurance at all due to high risk premiums?
  5. Presea?? WTF?!?! At least torneo has H22A to drop into civic. And how many "thefts" were people who woke and thought "what the hell am I doing driving this?!" so had a "mate" make it disappear.
  6. I'm still in two minds about this. I say possible waste of time due to water cooling. Yet on the other hand, the oil will still need to circulate, blah blah blah. So I decided, in my case, to keep it as: a) I hardely ever boost the bloody thing anyway b) it's only a minute of extra fuel c) mine has speed cut defencer and boost gauge capabilities. So after another pointless post by Familyman, I summarize with: your car, your call.

    so....

    All I gotta say is: FFFFFUUUUUUU to all of you!!!! I want one so bad but prices are already escalating due to classicness approaching. Why the hell did I buy a V7?
  8. Finally started making template for CAI via wierd trapezoid light on drivers guard. Broke reflector, got mad, realised I need to cut metal, so hit the beers instead.
  9. Is that a handy dandy storage box built in to sub box? What an ace idea!!! "Some people don't realise, but..."
  10. beat me to it. DCCD was a super pricey option from new.
  11. Yet the "exclusive" "vagoo" costs like $75 for a lap dance! Dam inflation.
  12. So will the next car be called "the after"?
  13. I'd have one. Sooooooo sick of the 6MT in city traffic.
  14. Gdb is known as the pigSTI due to misc crap left all through it from the weasel. B4 is the Boobmobile due to DOUBLD plates
  15. So one could bring in R32 GTR, any RX7, or a Suzuki Cappuccino? Really want a Cappuccino. Those things are cool.
  16. That makes more sense. Couldn't figure out how someone involved with NASCAR would even know what a 22B was. Lol. Is it still at Armstrong?
  17. I know that steve down here at Rick Armstrong sold 22B (#192?) for $50k last year. Some ex-pat kiwi working in America in NASCAR scene emailed him and bought it sight unseen. Was still parked on roof of Armstrong a few months ago I believe. Wonder if it's still up there?
  18. Now that's recycling!! Thinking green there.

    roof vortex generator

    I thought they were only effective when placed on top of rear window on GDB body shape. Any higher and the turbulence still exists 2/3 of the way down the window.
  20. Here is a cheap as (read: semi rangi) way to test. Take off wing and bolt to firm non flexing anything. Then place equal sized non flexing thing on boot of car. Place accurate bathroom scales between non flexing things and mount. ( have not worked out this finer point yet.) go for fast drive with video camera aimed at scales display. This will show you what speeds create what downforce. Switch wings and compare away.
  21. Fantasticly written there Sanchez. Thought of freelancing for NZPC mag? They need some good writers I hear.
  22. Terrific idea. Would def be keen as for that.
  23. Very nice nick. Love the reflections in windows.
  24. Wooston industrial area. IMO shipping containers make awesome backdrops due to framing the car well and the crap faded paint/rust makes vehicles paint pop even more.
  25. Dealership+hoody+screwdriver+night time= win!!! (just kidding. I don't condone this at all) Just for a laugh, try Subaru prices for it. Might attempt to make a mould off my one. Will keep you posted.
