  1. Yeah, saw a electronic sign saying the same thing at the bottom of the kaimais.
  2. Drink, do burnouts, and drive my cars like I stole them. (not particularly in that order)
  3. You will probally find your speedos are reading high. E30 speedo's are notorious for it. I just drove from hamilton to whakatane and didnt see a single cop. Just one speed camera van at the bottom of the kaimais, wasnt even hidden very well.

    New NZTA scam

    Nigerians, most respected bankers of all Africa
  5. I guess that depends what you are converting?
  6. Yeah I guess. The only time I get a CD is when I buy a new piece of hardware, and I throw the CD and instructions out with it. Then download the latest software off the net for the device (the software on the CD is usually outdated anyway).
  7. Bugger that for a bag of soldiers.
  8. I worked in a factory stacking / unstacking pallets. We would lift just over 40kg at a time, thats all we did all day every day, as fast as we could. Easy work, but its a sh*t job and sh*t pay.
  9. I dont know of anyone or any companys using CD's to back up their data, they are too fragile and just a pain in the ass. Alot of places are still actually using tape drives (LOL). I just got back from a place now and their back up system backs up all their PC's (about 20), to a dedicated back up server then once that is finished the back up server backs up to an off site server via SFTP. The first backup protects against hardware failures etc, and backing up off site protects from fire / theft etc. The only time I personally use a CD is to burn music on to play in someones car or something. But for myself my headunit has USB capability's aswell. Backing up to CD just takes too long, and they are easily damaged. I always use USB drives to share data between friends, they are cheap as chips for a 4/8gb drive, hold much more compared to a CD and can be reused 1000's of times. But yes, I think the CD will be around for a long time yet. Just like the 9pin serial port
  10. Meh I stopped using disks along time ago. I use a 4gb flash drive for installing OS's. Any time I buy software I buy it online and download it. Cant remember the last time I bought software from a shop.
  11. Pretty much describes NZ's internet tbh.

    My new baby!

    You can get a warrant without a spare.
  13. Possibly compared to say.... a car? Having a crash on a bike you are more likely to hurt yourself than having a crash in a car. A car vs bike crash, more likely for biker to get hurt? Bike has lower visibility to other road users?
  14. sh*t i just renew ip when i get ban
  15. I dont really watch top gear for the cars, I watch it for the funny sh*t they get up to
  16. None of the advertising has an effect on me. Tho police presence does, if Ive just seen a cop or in a area I know always has police patrolling then Im not gonna try and do anything stupid. Hell id rather sit behind someone driving slow rather than pass them if I think its likely for a cop to be around (even if it is safe to pass them without braking the speed limit).
  17. I thought it was pretty stupid tbh. Also, fake advertising.
  18. Would 20 amps(with extra mosfet) be enough current to run a fan? My fan will blow a 30 amp fuse.

    Quick Questions

    Both my power antennas have a power wire that goes to the battery / ignition whatever you want. Then the other wire goes to the head unit.

    Well if it was leaking combustion gases into the coolant then I can see why it would over heat. But you said you tested the coolant and it was fine.

    How would loose head bolts make it overheat?
  23. So you didnt test drive it before you bought it?
  24. But do you really want your car in a rice burner magazine?
