get some knowledge up ya, cunts
>>
changed my oil for the first time today, also found out a problem I thought was the transmission is something different.

I've posted here before about my auto dropping to 1.5k revs and humming/vibrating, and I thought it was the transmission going bad. After I changed the oil it is smooth and doesn't drop at all or make a sound, only lets out a feint sound if it's struggling uphill.

Any ideas what this could have been?, the oil was pretty black so old/wrong oil?
>>
>>14040959
yeah probably bad atf
>>
>>14041012
No I changed the engine oil not atf

Almost rear ended by mental fucks in their shitty holden ve vs ss or whatever the fuck those trash things are called. Doing 150+ in a busy 50 zone on two way road with cop station a few minutes away.

happened 3 times in 5 minutes meanwhile I get 200 dollar fine for going 55 in 50 zone in the middle of fucking nowhere from some parked speed camera bullshit.

Fucking useless cunts I swear. See fucking 10 cop cars parked outside their station doing fuck all.

Where is a good place to get dash cam? I want one with long life since I dont have a port on my rear view mirror and I dont want a cord hanging down to my cigarette lighter port

btw here in aus maccas seems pre clean

do you do shit to the food

say yes so i can stop eating maccas, i eat it like once every few months these days so you wont put me off
>>
>>14041348
Sorry for the late reply, yes.

I have a R33 with numerous mods including a brand new engine out of a r34 Nur.

Got it compression tested twice in the last week, came up near perfect!

I'm also running
>Forged rims with a set of p zeros
>Upgraded ECU
>Fuel rails and injectors
>Custom suspension from HKS
>Oil catch can
>Upgraded pod filters and turbos (the turbos are so fucking terrifying when they hit, i can barely keep the car straight with AWD)

And numerous other goodies (i'll let your minds ponder)

It's tuned to about 60% boost at the moment and i think i may have chopped someone else from here (if you're the guy in the red maloo who gave it a fair shot, i'm the black GTR that you never saw coming). You gave it a good shot mate!

I'm actually kinda scared to turn the boost up, but it's a nice feeling knowing you have that power on tap should a lambo pull up to you at the lights.

>>14041887
Don't eat at maccas. Most of the meat is hours old and it's overpriced as fuck.

Worst is the fried stuff, the vats are normally filtered hourly. Once had two shifts in a row and the filters were still clean. 24 hours with the same oil is fucked

its better than it used to be. because subway is in our part of the world they had to do the eat fresh crap. it used to sit ready made for about an hour then they had to throw it out
>>
>>14041905
haha good

idk i just lost interest in maccas never crave it nymore or anything

last time i went was a few weeks ago to try those "loaded fries" they were fucking terrible. fake ass cheese and the chewiest bacon out.

I remember chatting the girl up at the drive thru and shes like "hehe ask for the secret one which is the guacemoly and the cheese mixed together ;)"

yeah nah bitch the shit was nasty on its own. would smash the cunts of some of those sexy muslim girls that work there tho lmao. do they handle the bacon too or they dont touch that shit> seems like every maccas as a few mussies

Brand new probably isn't the right word to use. Sounds like a fun car, although not what I'd go for personally. Crazy boost is fun, but most of my driving is twisties, prefer something linear.

If you're who I think you are it should be interesting doing some roll ons with my R1 next year. I'm getting the exhaust and electronics done before I take it to Melbourne.

>>14041894
It isn't literally the dirtiest McDonalds in the world, that was the headline used. I don't eat McDonalds at all though, heard the Hindley Street one is dodgy as though. Years back I had a burger from there and couldn't eat for three days.

>>14041912
I think the last time I ate McDonalds was five years ago.
>>
>>14041894
I heard from a few people that saw the kitchen that rats were chewing on food and roaches were everywhere. I doubt there was a single piece of food served that wasn't tainted by piss or shit, either from humans or other creatures that lived in there.

you have to go like before lunch before the salads and shit sit too long. even so its meh when fresh.

just go to a real deli or something

i was talking about in early days before subway came in the 90s the mcds burgers used to just sit around now all the burger joints have to do the make the burger in front of you crap.
>>14041932
the reason subway has sprung up like weeds? because they only really need a power point not a big fat fryer like most fast food outlets
>>14041936
they dont.

A = the best food service F = worst wouldnt give to ya dog so thats why mcds in nz and all other food outlets had to step up its game

>>14041964
victor and ben bray have campained their doorslammer on the burnout pad before they used a doorslammer engine in a holden ute. the reason that hk would have broken the studs is because the doorslammer engine is too powerfull and produces too many torks, most street? cars that are in the burnouts put out 1500hp at the most.

p plate fag with 86 here

how to increase power legally
>>
>>14042036
sell 86
>>
>>14042036
Anything you'd do to add power would be illegal on Ps.
>>
>>14042041
exhaust?

intake?

wb all these p plate fags in commodores that sound like fucking super cars

meanwhile 86 with an exhaust will just sound like typical ricer or generic wrx roar
>>
>>14042048
Exhaust and intake are both not allowed on P-Plates.
>>
>>14042039

oh wait a fucking second.

apparantly it is from what ive read. what fucking bullshit. meanwhile see cunts in their 260-70 hp sv's on their p's

cops have never opened up my hood anyway
>>
>>14042079
the reason they're allowed those cars are because holdens lose 40% of their power between the engine and the drivetrain!

So don't worry, they're slow as shit.
>>
>>14042083
have to hand it to them they might be slow but some of the old ones with exhaust sound fucking beastly
>>
exhaust is fine on any car older than like 15 years
as long as you still have your cat mufflers and similar size to factory the police cant really do anything. the original exhaust doesnt last forever
>>
oh and why do i see a lot of p platers with their fart canon exhausts?

asif cops pull those cunts over
>>
>>14042073
> in vic they are
No they aren't. They'd be considered a performance enhancing modification.

>>14042079
260hp doesn't mean much when the car weighs 1800kg. You probably have a better power to weight ratio.

>>14042083
>40%
Now come on. I don't really like them either, but it's more like 15%.

>>14042094
You can only replace it with an equivalent model as a necessary replacement. Even if your exhaust had rust holes all through it, if you go and throw a performance looking muffler on the car you'll be breaking the law.

>>14042099
It isn't legal, but no one really cares that much either. You'd probably get picked up in a GT86 though.
>>
>>14042104
yeah 260hp 86 would rek a lot of shit apparantly

thing only weighs like 1300

>>14042106
A VE Omega has something like 240-260hp. I see P platers constantly mention how it's bullshit people can buy those "high powered" cars. They're heavy cars and not fast at all.

>>14042112
>S2000
Depends on state. I think they're legal in Victoria. Banned in most states though.

BVG used to be better when he had anger issues though.

>>14042115
>An exhaust system that is corroded beyond repair must be replaced with either a new original replacement from the vehicle manufacturer or an equivalent non-original (aftermarket) system that meets approval standards for emissions and noise.
Anything performance oriented would still be considered an illegal modification.

lol what announce. everytime i read some shit about some fake report of a new 86 coming out
>>
>>14042154
>High flow cat, and something that's not a totally straight through system and it's cheers
Actually anything to do with airflow rates is considered a performance modification and isn't legal.
>>
>>14042157
also i bet p plate fags wont be allowed to touch them as per usual + more cunts will buy them

fuck it ill import a cayman S from Europe once ford and toyota die and the import taxes fuck off

or maybe ill use my misses employee discount and buy a lotus lel

>>14042163
I seriously do not know where you are coming up with this shit

>>14042167
Victorias attitude is blanket no-modification. Whether you're making more power or not a high flow cat would be considered an illegal modification.

Yeah, keep thinking that.
There is a replacement for displacement.

let me guess its economical because its a 4 cylinder and its boost cos its turbo!

what is it like 170 kw?
>>
>>14042249
310 hp and 320 ft/lbs
And it's so easy to make more power it isn't even funny. Never underestimate a turbocharged Mustang.

Tried asking in last thread, didn't get much of a response. I need a new car, mine shat itself the other day. Currently looking at this one.

http://www.carsales.com.au/private/details/Subaru-Liberty-2006/SSE-AD-3635675/?Cr=2

It's a 2006 Subaru Liberty GT, tuned by STI.
It's Auto, has 161k kms, 3 months rego, RWC.

They are asking $13900. I'm hoping to get them to $12k, lower would be even better, so I can take it to a shop and get anything it needs done, done, which is hopefully not much.

Question is, is this car worth it for the cost? Does anyone own it, or very similar and have advice? Is it too pricey for the upkeep of one of these beasts? Or is there another car that I would be better off getting for $12k?

How about this one instead?
It's two years older, but has over 10k less km's, and is up for $9500, instead of $14k. Sure, it's missing a few touches, no lowering, no nice wheels, spoilers. But otherwise, it's the same car on lower km's. But it is in werribee. Maybe dodgey?

Re: >>14042367

lib by sti for 14k is CHEAP
lib stis are normally 20k+ easy
but at 160000kms thats alot and if it wasnt maintained well with books, might be full of issues.

>>14042575
looks good
are you looking for an economical daily?
because subarus are not economical at all
average 10l/100km is bad for a daily i know ive had 2
>>
>>14042589
The add for the 2006 by STI reckons he has full service history and logs. There are three of the same year/model in Vic for the same price, so they must be having a price war with each other.

And 10L/100k is the same as my current car, it is a bit pricey, but I can live with it.

Are they reliable enough? Won't be having too many repair costs? And what about the turbo? I've never had turbo before, does it cause issues a lot?
>>
>>14042645
God damnit i lost my post

long story short

Boxers are not reliable, they drink fuckloads of fuel, the engine is a fucking asshole to work on and will cost you a bomb in labor.

Turbo cars are efficient but it increases wear and tear on an engine. I Wouldnt be suprised if that lib sti has had a new turbo or a rebuild by now.

>>14042675
So, you're telling me not to get this car?

>>14042639
Right here you say it looks good and good price.
>>
>>14042685
Its a good car no doubt,
but its not a car for a daily driver if that is the sole purpose it will do for you.

Soz for contradiction

May i suggest

-Honda

Civic

-Toyota

Can anyone of you fags call Goleby's Parts for me at 0421 087 507 and ask them if they will ship to the States?
I emailed them twice in the last week, heard nothing back. Tried calling myself, but cant figure out the damn number shit. Queensland supposed to have an 8 digit number and a 1 digit area code, but their number is 10 digits.
Their site says they do international shipping, but when ordering its not an option.

Can't get over just how good the XR250 is for a learner.
I rode my brother's CBX250 for 40 minutes one night and by the end I still was very uncomfortable with riding it.
I was totally fine with taking the XR through daytime traffic after the first time riding it. It's just so placid and soft and all the controls are perfect.
Money well spent I think

Top kek, nearly took out my oil pan in this rain. started to understeer on my way out of a small roundabout, over corrected a tiny bit too much and got a sudden burst of oversteer and stopped just before rekting my shit on an island.

pic related, the part of a round about I nearly rekt'd my shit on, in green. Not the actual roundabout

I think everyone I've met with a parallel twin has complained about it in some way. Usually about it's sound.
>>
>>14047210
He has been pretty angry recently, going off about the motorways, he was fed up with insurance recently and cunts stealing bikes, other stuff too. I don't think he's changed all that much except the fact he's a bit more professional.
>>

>>14048155
Why, because of shitty roads? The roundabout had a really dodgy spot on it that I haven't touched in the rain before
>>
>>14048189
a lot of roundabouts are like that in the wet, I'm guessing it's rubber buildup and the road surface just being shit

I got my front wheel drive shitbox sideways last night for the first time in a while, feelsgoodman
>>
>>14048189
Not them but you've gotta be driving pretty badly to crash on a roundabout.
>>
>>14048201
I was doing a u turn on a small round about, I think I handled it alright and didn't hit anything at all. Managed to brake properly without locking the wheels up, car doesn't have ABS or any form of traction control. But yeah, it was my fault for trying to gun it out of a roundabout in rain, under estimated how much understeer I would get

I used to practice controlled slides on a double lane roundabout near my house in the rain. Had a second set of wheels with bald tyres. Fun times.

Just drive safe anon, don't try to drive beyond your limits.

I haven't even been driving by myself for 4 months, hardly any proper experience with rain. even on my L's

muh plastic intake manifold, I think the gti had a metal one

I only do relatively basic stuff, as I'm too scared of making a mess of anything somewhat complicated

in the past year, I think I've just replaced the rear shocks, the harmonic balancer, and done an oil change
>>
>>14048396
>I only do relatively basic stuff
>rear shocks, the harmonic balancer, and done an oil change
More than most people do anon, good job.
>>
>>14048407
that being said, I did take quite a while to do the oil change

the positioning for the oil filter is on the front of the engine (which is tilted backwards rather significantly), under the intake manifold, and above the a/c compressor

the clearance from the radiator on either entry route is just enough to fit an arm through, touching the radiator of course

combine that with my skill level and you're in for a kekworthy oil change

Doesn't surprise me in the slightest, 180 degree crank parallel twin engines sound like ass no matter what you do.

I've heard doing something with the baffles in the airbox (taking them out perhaps? idk) improves the sound but I've never bothered to try it myself.

>>14048777
I wonder if he's finish installing that new sub and amp he was going on about 2 or 3 months ago in those audio threads.
Also I wonder how much he spent fixing the Astra roof. He still posts about it on the Astra forums so it looks like its still broken.

>>14048586
I've heard real shocking bikes. Know a couple guys with LAMS restricted 600s parallel twins. Both of them have those Axil Silencer pipes with no baffles. It combines that farting noise with some run on and makes it loud as shit. Sounds terrible.
