  1. It would look like a giant rollerskate.
  2. What the sh*t? Imo its a pretty average wheel too. Could get a wicked sparco for my race car for that.
  3. Its not the Death Magnetic tour guys. So they will play a good variety of their music. One at the Supertop was deafening! The explosions killed my hearing for a few days. However this time I am just going to get Seated tickets. Don't think I could handle the pitt anymore.
  4. Can't wait. Lost a shoe and had sore ribs for a month when they played at the supertop many moons ago. My Ride the Lightning T-Shirt somehow went from a medium to a XL. I might fit it again now.
  5. Same thing happened to me 8 years ago. You can't stop people talking about it. And I never even tried. Most people learn from it. If your car is not prepared right. Or you do stupid things like mismatch your tyres. Crashes occur. What cracks me up is the idiots who blame the track. Every open day I have been to there has been a crash. And it is always due to someone not knowing what they are doing, driving an ill prepared car.
  6. So his tyre choices were even worse than I expected. Mismatched fronts with unscrubbed rares? WTF was he thinking. And a full slick with 3x semis. Never seen a Honda lift oversteer there before. They usually do it at the start of the hill. What my mates who saw the incident said was that he dropped a wheel onto the grass. Which is your typical scenario for crashing at that spot. And this would no doubt come down to an unbalanced car. Mismatched tyres = Fail. It is also why it is a WOF requirement.
  7. I am quite rarely surprised when someone crashes their road car at Puke.

    STOLEN CAR

    Rude. I am glad I sold mine. They are getting stolen every other day now.
  9. Pretty sweet gif capturing a civic crashing at Puke. Cause: Overconfidence + 3xsemis 1xroad tyre The guy is fine. The car is not. Its big. So let it load.
  10. quite a few vids of this car posted on this forum. The car burnt to the ground just at the end of last year during a hillclimb. Is being rebuilt.

    Suzuki Super Carry

    On Fith Gear one of the guys shattered his ankle trying to drift one at a track. Not the safest things in the world.
  12. I only ever ran V-Power in her Nath. Purely for that reason.
  13. Gull Force 10 is fine in a modern engine like the N54. Infact you will find that you may get an increase in power. A friend of mine who works for ST HiTech re-tuned his Nissan Silvia from 215rwkw to 224rwkw just from changing from BP 98 to Force 10. Soichi (the owner) did his own tests and found that Force 10 produced the most power when the car is tuned for it. BP 98 can be utter sh*t sometimes. In my old Nissan 180SX with 211rwkw I could instantly tell when I got a sh*t batch of BP 98. My knock level would increase. At times it would get so bad there would be detonation. Dump the fuel and get some more from somewhere else and the problem was gone. BP's 98 is only up to 98. It is not a guaranteed rating. Just what it can reach. And it is quite often no where near that. Mobil is the other way around. It guarantees at least 97.5 on its Synergy 8000. Only bugger about having a car tuned for Force 10 is that if you can't get any (say when your on Holiday) then you will have problems with high knock levels. But this is only the case if your car has been tuned on Force 10. Road cars don't have to worry.
  14. Wish I was able to get down there in my series car. But I don't have a passenger seat or tow car at the moment. Need to find more speed around that track.
  15. Nice one! But shoot whoever put the wheel weights on the lip!!!
  16. Bit to wide for my liking. But I like the wheels. Could maybe break up the mass of red with the BMW roundel on the bonnet which is missing.
  17. Happy Bday old boy. Hope you have a good one!

    my new e66

    Being an LI it will be from Singapore or Hong Kong. Don't see many of them outside of those countries. Nice looking car.
  19. FUNCTION OVER FORM. Form over function is for Girls!. Most popular E28? Hell no. Most talked about though.
  20. Goes to show what BBS does to your car though ah. lol. Should be how they advertise.
  21. Dead on. Oh and there is two 1JZ powered E28's that I know of in Auckland. So see them every now and then.
  22. Nah no haters. Just people who jump on the bandwagon of OMG look at its stance! Pfft. Your falling for great photos of a rubbish car.
  23. TBH. I think it looks like a run down old heap of sh*t now. Intercooler looks crap. Wannabe Bozo oil cooler lines look stupid coming out of the highbeam hole. No front bumper is rude. Bags no thanks. And as much as I like 1J's. Would rather see it with a M30B35 n/a or turbo.
