  1. We have one of them we call the General Lee. Its orange of course. We picked her up for $50 in perfect condition.
  2. No I havent bothered to claim on anything as I dont have a detailed list of what was in the cars. Also they will use the old "It might have been stolen in Japan or on the boat" bullshit. The ports is a very close community. Its very hard for an outsider to get a job there. Most people you will find are related or mates. When someone leaves, the job gets offered to the next family member or mate. And yes they do thrash the cars. I have been there when a car has gone flatout past me in 1st gear hitting the limiter. Was a brand spanking new Holden Astra fresh off the boat. Makes you wonder if anyone is honest down there at all.
  3. Security at the ports is non existant. You can get the keys from the main office where they are all kept. I recently lost about $3500 - $4000 worth of parts from my two 180SX's I imported. Its the security and dock workers who have the first dibs on you bits. Then the Maf guys have a go as they have more time in the cars. Then the Truck drivers take whats left. This is what someone on the warfs has told me goes on.
  4. Alot of makeup on her. Hard to tell what its true lines are. Guess we will just have to wait a little longer.
  5. On a Motorola I doubt that could ever be possible. It would prob just crash or the battery would run out. Only phones with Wifi can do it from factory. There maybe a program to do it but once again I doubt you would find it for Motorola. Sorry for the hate on Motorola's. But I worked for Vodafone for a few years and they are by far the worst mobile brand on the market that is sold by vodafone. They caused me so much stress.
  6. Only in NZ. Dumb shits.
  7. Your right Erron. You pics make her look alot better. But chicks that drive BMW's or Silvias are better. I voted Miss Pagani.
  8. Mercs only look good in black. And thats coming from my Dad who has a black E55 AMG. After reading tons of reviews about the M3 and a few about the Merc I would pic the Merc. Its something different. But I am not too keen on the front bumper, those little grills annoy me. And I would prefer it if they had the 5.5 Supercharged V8 in the Merc as the 6.3NA is not as quick when comparing other models like the E class AMG. E.g. the 05 model vs the 07 one. 05 is faster.
  9. sh*t Erron your everywhere. I was getting bored by the dry balls journalist. Cant wait to see the Top Gear review. They are the only ones that make it exciting.
  10. Reminds me of the tool in that Silver WRX a while back. Hit a tree and stuffed it. His mate uploaded the footage onto google I think. The guy got done for fraud and dangerous driving as he was trying to claim it was stolen..
  11. Oh great. I would love to attend a day like this. The only Audi I have ever driven is the RS6 wagon and sedans which were rental cars for the rental company I worked for in the UK. Awesome machines. Porsche does a similar thing to this. Its the whole weekend and you get taught by v8supercar drivers. Dad went on it at the start of the year. In Aussie though.
  12. Could also be damage sectors off the hdd causing the problem.
  13. Its also called Grenade duty. It relates to WW2 when a squad members would jump on a grenade to save the rest of the squad if they could not throw it back or get out of the way. We also use to call these Grenades cock blockers. The ugly protective friend of the hot chick you want to get into. And even if the Hot chick likes you so will this "cockblocker" which destroys any chance. Every hot chick has one when your young.

    Go Kart Idea

    My flatmate is just finishing his Go-Kart project. Is a racekart frame and driveline with a GSX-RR 250cc motor on it. But he didn't stop there. It also now has a nice trubo on it. He has made his own plenum and pretty much everything else for it too. Was alot of work but he just builds it in his spare time. He has all the tools though. Design engineer for F&P healthcare.
  15. Best website for Transformers. http://www.seibertron.com/comics/universe/original/
  16. Soundwave is in the movie. He is just very small. lol. No Laserbeak or Ravage though. No Thundercracker or Skywarp. Skyfire would have been cool. Wish Starscream was a little more involved and as arrogant and ignirant as he is in the Cartoon. Oh man I love Transformers. Lol. I am 26 and still get really excited by them. Made a real impact on us when we were kids. There is nothing like that these days. Feel sorry for the kids. Does anybody still have their original toys? I still have the full sized Octomus prime but I lost his gun and his arm feel off. I have 3 of the 5 constructercons. Always wanted Starscream. And the two missing constructercons to make Devestator. lol. I could go on forever.
  17. The "Boy Racers" here would laugh and continue on not giving a sh*t. It would be a total waste of money. There were "Boy Racers" in my Dads day and there will be "Boy Racers" in our childrens day too. They need to learn to control it. Not try and stop something they have no show in hell doing. Oh BTW. Was talking to a Uni mate today who mentioned the Illegal drags are now going nuts on Weeknights instead of weekend nights and just as many if not more people are attending.
  18. Haha I just went to The Rock's Transformers premier. Was a great movie. They were my childhood heroes along with MacGyver. But I couldn't help notice the cars that got destroyed. A 740is got crushed. And it looked like an 80's 5 series got run over. I enjoyed it. Was full of action. Even your Mrs might enjoy it as it is not 100% Transformers related.
  19. Yip I agree. I did meet a few nice ones while I was over there though. But its nearly as average as NZ. lol
  20. Sweet some cool stuff in there. This is my 180. Drive it every day as my BMW is No.42 for the Race series and is in 1000's of parts but nearly complete. Occasionaly am seen out in the E55 AMG when Dads too lazy to move it. Also ride my 1981 Trutest. Modded with direction tyres and disc brakes as my shoes wore out. She does 55kph or 58kph with a tail wind. Im going to try for 60kph with a tail wind and no eating for a couple of days.
  21. Well here is a non bias opinion as I love my BMW's but help run the Nissansilvia.co.nz club. I currently have a 96 180SX and was thinking of selling and buying a late model 540. My only reason for doing so is because I have now had 3 180's and want something new. The 540 is pretty much 1 of 4 cars I would even consider selling for. The S15 Spec R is a nice car and mods are extreamly cheap compaired to modding a late model BMW. Maintanence is vurtually non existant as the SR20 is pretty much bullet proof and runs a timing chain rather than a belt. There is very few things that go wrong with S15 bar the interior rattles you occasionaly get. The S15 has no back seat room. Both will no doubt have equal gas consumption due to the way you will drive them. The big V8 allows you to move along quickly at low RPM but the S15 of course is Turbo so you will be on boost. But put your foot down in the V8 and she will use alot more gas in the long run. But you wont drive the BMW in that way. If you want performance and are looking at moddifying in the future I would get the S15 If you want a very quick cruiser and only plan to do basic mods I would look at the BMW.
  22. Yeah whats the story behind it. Some amazing cars in there.
  23. Sadly there was only 3 of those rims. But they were def replicas. Made in Japan so they cant be Alpina. They were going to cost me $60NZD. Haha. Well no doubt it would have been $80 if there was 4.
  24. Mate is sorting it out for me now in Japan. Found some more interesting wheels but they are only 6 wide. And these light weight 15j 15X7's are quite cheap. Might bring in a set of them too.
  25. OMG they are calling the wheels junk. And they are from a rusty E30. lol
