  2. Ahhh what the hell, everyone likes pictures
  3. Hello I skived off work early today and washed my car. Here is the result afterwards.

    Schumi Leaves his Team

    Here is the latest.... Apparently Ralf is keen on staying with Williams now. http://onesport.nzoom.com/sport_detail/0,1...76-2-21,00.html Cheers
  5. good call, I like that, very funny. If you can't laugh at yourself...then who can you laugh at. Cheers
  6. Wholly sh*t, that is a monster. Surely that is not a daily driver... Cheers
  7. Ticket Prices for Sunday (2 May) are $48 for General Admission, or $63 with infield pass as well (recommended). Cheers
  8. Yup - that road from Silverdale to Orewa is about as good as roads get for easy driving. I was on that road at rush hour last Friday, and the traffic was pretty free moving the whole way from before Silverdale, right the way to Orewa. It just goes to show what a difference a good bit of road makes. Sorry, this seems to be a bit off topic. Cheers

    Power Steering

    Once it starts leaking, it is replacement time, and the PS pump making a groaning noise at full lock is a good indication of this. To get a replacement reconditioned rack installed you are looking at around $700 - $1000 (depending on the condition of your existing one). To top up the reservior, top up the dark brown reservior (you can't miss it, it is the only one that is dark brown). Also you will want to fill it with Automatic Transmission Fluid (it is red in colour and you should be able to get it from any decent garage). There is a dipstick built into the lid of the reservior, do you can use that to make sure you have it at the right level. Cheers

    Diff stripped...

    Gus Does that mean I get the chance to get the Primera towed from our complex?? Really, I think that you are mixing the cars up so that the owner of the carpark you are using doesn't get suspicious that the same person is using their carpark each day. Good luck with the diff reattachment. Cheers
  11. Perfectly said..I couldn't agree more.That is the way to lower the road toll, have decent first world roads, not the third world goat tracks that we currently have to put up with. Cheers
  12. hahahaI think that it would be impossible to miss that intercooler, that is massive and bloody impressive. I bet it has quite a few people taking a second look, to make sure their eyes weren't decieving them. Cheers
  13. Sounds good. I will be going on the Sunday (when there are the two races), so I suggest then...sound good? Cheers

    Stealth-Car

    What kind of drag co-efficient would this have? Cheers
  15. yeah, there was Lego in my day...but we actually had to whittle the blocks out of bits of wood, while sitting on the back porch listening to banjo music..Ahhhhh the good ole days in the rural Waikato. I hear that lego nowadays is made out of this fandangled substance called plastic. Cheers
  16. Now, that is cool. They didn't have lego like that when I was a young fulla. I can just imagine the smart ass comments that are going to be posted in relation to that comment. Cheers

    Schumi Leaves his Team

    Just rumours at this stage. I doubt that Jaguar would release him for testing with Williams (during the rest of the regular season). He has proved he is a very good driver (last night excluded) so I don't think that Williams feel they need him to test for them. I think that he would be very good in a competitive car, he has the ability to get the most out of a car, as he proved all last year in the Jaguar...which must qualify as one of the most unreliable cars around. If Ralf goes, I think that Webber will be Willliams first choice, followed very closely by Button, but I can't see Button leaving BAR in a hurry. They seem to be the big improvers this year, and Honda look after Button very well, and he is treated like royalty by Honda. William's second seat could be interesting, I feel that Scott Dixon needs a season of testing before being a F1 'race' driver. However, if Williams are willing to take a risk on Dixon to start racing straight away, I think that after a few races he will be very very competitive. Cheers

    Schumi Leaves his Team

    I think that it would be a very career limiting move for Ralf to join Toyota...look at how Jacques Villineuve (sp) suffered when he went to the lesser teams. Their ego's don't take too kindly to not being with a competitive team.

    Schumi Leaves his Team

    It is interesting that the rumours about Ralf leaving Williams have all gone very quiet, even though the BBC has been reporting that he is most likely leaving for Toyota too. Haven't the Toyota's been disappointing in the two F1 races so far this year. Cheers
  22. Yes, my question exactly....
  23. Hello Who is going to the V8 Supercars next month at Puke. I'm there for sure (I have not missed one yet). Lets hope that Murph can dominate again. Cheers
