Muh $25.

does anyone else feel awkward walking into the local supercheap/repco etc if you have been going in way too often, or am I just an autist

Seriously those people will know me by name soon

Does anyone know of a good F1 stream?
Tenplay is only doing highlights of tonights GP, if I can't find another online stream I'll have to head into the casino.

Be chill Anon, it's absolutely normal to be a regular at your local auto store.

>>15058704
True though the other day I was having a shitty day and sperged at the counter a little, guy gave me a kind of worried look

>tfw I kinda get that going into stores I've never been into before

>>15058711
It's all good, that guy was probably mildly concerned for fiftteen seconds and then thought about something else, people usually have more important things to worry about than a stranger/guy that comes into the shop who does something a touch awkward.

>>15058599
A co worker has a wrecked falcon, can get other parts too before they send it to the wreckers.

>>15058621
it's a EB Falcon, I hope the diff bolts up alright

>>15058694
I go to the local supercheap a lot, the guy that usually always there working signed me up for a trade card because I go in there that often. 10% off stuff and a monthly trade catalog with really good specials

>>15058728
Yeah I can't imagine how often you'd see that sort of thing working a register

>>15058694
The Supercheap. Repco and Autobarn are within 50m of eachother. It's fucking odd but it works I guess. I go to Repco or Supercheap because the people who work at Autobarn are autstic and try to make me spend $100s on a shitty commodore

>>15058786
I got that card too, I forget to use it half the time

Mangtec i dont even know if that exist. Ecotec is 3.8l 150kw pushrod. Alloytec is 3.6l 175/190kw DOHC and is much more fuel efficient

Not a lot of new options out there for rwd, light coupes. Guess the MX5's are but also about 2x the money and not everyone's a hairdresser or likes penis.

>>15058307

Question, I know fuck all about cars. was wondering why some trays have no sides, is it just for looks or does that style actually have some benefits? why wouldn't you want the sides?

>>15059653
Because you can bury the accelerator and rip gears like dagumi as you battle to overtake a pensioner in a 90s camry.

It's the Ninja 250 of the sports car world.

>inb4 the guy with the 86 comes in and tries to defend it
he'd of posted already but he's going to be slow to replying obviously.

>>15059715
Depends on what you're hauling really.

Sides help to contain your load (gravel or loose material, for instance) but if your shit is wider or longer than the tray itself it will need to hang over the edge, obviously.

My guess is the owner took the sides off because it looked better.

do abo's drive lads?

if so what do they drive

>>15059754

>>15059715

>>15059768
On the money, they usually go for VN-VS commos but I recently saw a mob in a VZ SS, so I guess they're starting to move up.

>>15059753
trays with sides aren't designed to lock in the hanging down position? if not they should make them lockable up and down, unless they already do?

BRISBANE MEET NEXT WEEKEND

Location: Mt Gravatt lookout

Time: 9am/9pm for morning and night people

I was thinking saturday but i think lots of people have work on, so give us a yell because im feeling sunday

Prolly just do a quick drive down to sunnybank and grab something to eat then a cruise somewhere good

>>15059810
Far as I know they don't lock in the down position, only in the up.

The back side would be hanging over your tail lights in the down position though, so you wouldn't be able to drive around with it down for any length of time.

ahhh i see :) I'll stop with the shitty questions now. have a good day ya'll

If i moved to Australia and came to your meets would you all accept my dominance over you all as a pommy cunt.

I would import a MG over and expect you all to cater to my every need.

Any back chatting would be greeted with the back of my hand.

After a while i would demand that i organised the meets, after which i would impose strict rules...

No Abos
No Lebos
No Gooks or Chinks
5 min break after every 30mins for a cup of tea
We all have to fly just the union jack on our cars (no blue and star shit)
You all have to call me master

Would this go down well?

>>15059861
Have a guess.

>>15059861

at least pic something that isnt an entry level classic car. MGs are everywhere here and are dull.

Anyone driven a 240z? I really love how it looks and might even import one in one of my dreams

>>15059912
Get drunk/stoned and shitpost like the rest of us

Looking to buy another car, the gofast options in the OP are all not P-Plate friendly. Is there a good, comfortable P-Plate shitbox that goes a little faster than your average 6cyl?

My current shitboxes are nice and great to drive, but kind of on the weak side (old N/A i6/gutless 4).

I pretty much have to get an N/A Falcon or Commodore to be on the top of unmodified N/A shitheaps, right?

>>15059912

>>15060027
When families no longer pay for grave (you in a way lease the burial spot), the body that's there is then buried deeper and someone new goes on top with a new tombstone.

>>15060017
lol wow

>>15060051
that is 7 different kinds of fucked up, that shit does not happen in my town.
there are graves here from the 1800's

>>15059934
IN nsw they are allowed for p platers

>>15060062
Country town?, that's just the norm in city cemeteries

>>15060062
It depends primarily on the city and country. In London for example, there is no space for bigger graveyards so depending on the grave, they will bury people deeper and add more on top. I've known of some graveyards that have up to 4 or more people stacked on top of each other.

It's fucked up I know but when you consider how many people have died and how few graves there are, it starts to make sense.

>>15060073
yeah country town.

For small parcels, anywhere between 9am and 5pm on a Monday or Tuesday depending on if you live near a depot or an annexe and where your house is on the round. 9-3pm for Wednesday to Friday.

Medium to large parcels are usually done by vans which are contractors. Contractors will pretty much do it when they feel like it. In my experience most will be out in the late afternoon if you're in the suburbs, and morning if you're in a regional area.

>>15064134
96-98% of scannable articles are delivered on time. Stop watching Today Tonight and A Current Affair and/or reading Whingepool threads. AusPost employees are typically fine, it's the contractors that tend to cause issues, even then it's pretty rare.

The media doesn't understand that the white vans delivering parcels aren't operated by Australia Post. It's not a hard concept to grasp but they've got to pretend to be journalists somehow.

>>15066950
Unless they are into cars/bikes themselves they are fucking clueless about aut/o/. I've had a cop pull me over in my VT and his first question was how many cylinders does my engine have.

>>15067006
umm no. i think they have heard and seen that one

>>15067005
Not kidding about contractors, got it at quarter to 5 so pretty much the end of their run

>>15067035
Depends where you are. That could've been near the end of their run. Some of the contractors like to do 3-9pm.

It's really hard to say when you'll get a parcel honestly, there's so many variables.

>>15067040
Usually they stop at 5 here then run the rest to the local post office since it closes at 5:30

>>15066967
They'd notice you doing uncontrollable power wheelies followed by your brakes catching on fire from trying to emergency stop from 280km/h.

>>15059623

A lot of the contractors will throw 9am the next day on the card and drop them off at a depot and transfer them in the morning.

Again it really depends where you live.

>>15067045

Never stop. Just use engine braking for everything.

let's talk weight reduction /dat/

how do you help your car lose weight?

Thinking about drilling holes into parts of shit I don't need just to lose more weight.
Already taken out the back seats. Still need the passenger one though.


>2016

Cars are made to go fast why weigh them down with something that can only slow them down?

it's winter so if I want cool air I'll roll the window down.
Also drilled the shit out of the window rollers since they were bulky plastic.

Every bit counts.

>>15067101
remove seats and shit

they weigh a tonne

>>15067109
Take out the panels? Stereo?

>>15067118

>>15067109
Good man, you'd be surprised how many fat cunts out there strip their car out yet smash double quarter pounders like they're going out of fashion.

What car we talking about here?

>>15067101
