>sand
>dirty mine people everywhere
>abbos
People go there to make money in the mines and then ditch WA when they've made enough cash.
>>15436672
Most of the dirty miners are from your states, m8. You just wanted to dip your dink into the high paid mining action.
It wasn't meant to be though, now that the boom is over, all the cockroaches are abandoning ship and going back to live with mum in the Eastern states, lines of fifo houses and GTS's are flooding the market everywhere here. You can pick up a 2007 GTS for 27k here.
>>15436755
As for the coons, yeah, ours are worse than most other states, but at least we don't get reported in the workplace for 'discrimination' if we don't talk about abos favourably
>>15436755
we know they're from other states dingus. the point is that nobody goes to visit WA, they go to make cash and gtfo.
>>15436755
>2007 GTS for 27k in WA
Literally available in every state mate.

Too many km m8, I'm talking fifo cars that they barely drove
>>15436815
And how on earth would you know that? You've never been out for a drive in your state, have you? There is a little more to an entire state than visiting the biggest city.
One of the best things we have are freshwater lakes that aren't infested with crocodiles, and we don't have deadly funnelwebs that actively hunt people to bite
>>15436927
>Too many km m8, I'm talking fifo cars that they barely drove

Just heard a supra out in the wild, i think the cunt had it decatted, sounded fucking sublime.
Most assuredly was not stock.
Can we get a few videos of everyone's fave car sounds? Doesn't matter what car it is, share the sound you like the most
>>15437035

About 30 seconds in. Fuck I wish every V8 sounded like this.
>>15436957
Do you not understand depreciation of value?
More km's means less value.
Picking up a car with less km for the same price as picking up the same car with more km is good value, is it not?
>>15437022
C'mon, m8. I assume you're from some hipster area like Melbourne. Do you honestly believe city shopping is the only thing your state has to offer tourists and visitors?
WA's best assets are outside Perth. Not that freo ain't decent, it's just we have equally nice landscapes everywhere, not just 1-3 things that our state is famous for (looking at you, great barrier reef fags and opera house fags)
>>15437084
Because tourists decide, no, I won't go to Sydney or Melbourne or Ayers Rock or even fucking Canberra, I want to go to Perth that is just sand and nothingness.
TFW even QLD has better tourism than you.
2nding WA being most comfy state
>>15437108
> wanting chink tourists
>>15437265

When I was a kid our neighbour had a column shift VB 'dore.
Falcons came with optional column shift for utes up until the FG I think.
>>15437316
You could get VR Commos with column shifts and bench seats

so much butthurt in this thread lmao.
I am jelly how P platers can drive whatever they want.
Anyone know what nuts I need to use if I want to fit VE wheels on my VY? I know I need the centre bore machined but I'm not sure what nuts I need.
>>15437686
>>15437689
I know only freedom.
>>15437695
You need to put VE rims on a lathe for them to fit on a VY and no cunt has a lathe that big that will let you use it for free
>>15437718
The guy says they are already pre drilled for pre ve and is running hub centric rings on his ve, so should be fine for my vy?
>>15437725
should be fine then m80

From today's paper. It seems Tracy's writing for the Courier Mail now.
>>15437695
I think you'll need 10 sets of drunk bogan's nuts for that I reckon.
>>15437764
>50k for a Focus
>>15437771
According to the Ford site it's $55k. Similarly priced to the WRX STi but with 257kW stock and a smaller aftermarket.

You reckon they bothered to remove the mechanism on our Mustangs or would they have just disabled the mode at the last minute? Say what you will about the nanny laws, Ford and Holden pumped out their best high performance hoon chariots in their death throes in defiance of the Grimshaw regime.
>>15437838
Wait till Tracy gets the EcoBoost V6 changed to just an Eco V6.
>>15437843
>yfw Grimslut can't even handle 11 kW

its not like you are taking the hub off, should be able to use the stock nuts, i dont remember having to buy new bolts for mine when i swapped rims on my vy
>>15437842
Bet the whole thing is gone. It's about $100-150 here, so maybe 175-200 with your deflated currency?

What wheels were you putting on your vy btw.
Show us a pic, v8? manual?

>>15437932
You need to show proof of identity when purchasing a prepaid phone.
>>15437672
>>15437932
Prepaids need to be registered since like 2009 or 10 or some shit to avoid specifically this
Can be overcome by using a sim from before then or by stealing a cunts phone

I only need to send one message, no point pissing away my precious neetbux
Ive contacted a guy whose selling a HG Kingswood for $600
I offered him $500 and he accepted immediately, and sent me pictures. I think i might be in over my head. The engine is seized, the starter motor is gone, starter solenoid is gone, it has rust holes, the rear window is smashed, Y Frames are a little rusty, paints fucked, the plates dont exist in the reg (not walk in, needs to be regency park) and the interior is roached. You guys think im taking more than i can chew?
Afterall, its a complete car for $500. Ive compiled all the photos i have into this one pics related. What do you guys think? im looking at it on Saturday

Nigger, look at the rust holes in the body.
Now remember that the chassis is equally as old as the body, but has been exposed more to the elements.
NOPE.
>>15437997
so wheres the line drawn? was it the rust, interior or engine work?
>>15437886
what do you mean tuner boi?

I'm so glad they're finally being sold here. It'll still be about a decade before preowned models start to appear at decent prices but still.

You can find simmons for like 1500 used mate lol.
And you're pointing out small shit, looks good.
>>15438394
It doesn't look good, it looks like it's using BA brakes which are completely inadequate for even the standard non turbo let alone anything that fast.
My fucking BF with the largest non-brembos you can get (including territory rears) combined with DBA rotors and harsh pads was pathetic to pull up.

Mark ended up there for a while, dunno if he still runs it, but theres a lot of old stuff there.
>>15438428
So your biggest gripe is the brakes?
I can agree they can be better, but to me it doesn't make the car look shit.
Cunts probably just being a cheap ass.

warning for any of you faggots not to go past flinders st, cops have a massive defect station.

Ehh been and gone. Greenhill and Montacute was fun
>>15438069
Cheap (typically Jap) shit that isn't that great stock, but has good potentian and such an immense aftermarket that the likes of Soros would be bankrupted before getting through it all. See; S-chassis, Toyobarus, the Evo and STi, A80 Supras, etc.

Grow up. Move past that and it's one of the best cars you can buy here.
>>15443888
He's not wrong though. Can't show up to a corporate gig in a Falcon, you'd never get promoted or even respected for that matter. And if it's a performance model, people just think you're a manchild.
There's a certain sense in having a vehicle that is more practicality than fun. It makes you look more sensible and responsible as a result, and will probably get you further in life so when you do want to have fun, you'll have plenty of money to do so.
>>15443888
If you like mashing the throttle in a straight line... And that's it.
>>15443899
Pfft depends on the 'corporate' one of my bosses has a very hot small alfa, another one has the miniature amg hatch, a45 I think. Some other mentions are a 317 maloo ute in black, and someone has a toyota tundra. Not everyone in "the ladder" is piss boring

>>15443910
Where I work, most people show up in Audis, Merc E Classes, and BMW 5 series.Some Lexus around as well. One guy has a Porsche 911 that he DD's to work.
Anyone showing up in what would be perceived as a "muscle" car, or an Australian family sedan would bear the brunt of a few snide comments, and would have far less chance at scoring a promotion or pay rise. You can't front up to meetings or ferry clients around in a bogan car, simple fact of the matter. When you're closing a 10 million dollar business contract, you want to be backed up by something with class and substance, otherwise your client is going to think you're a cheap hack.

>>15443918

Don't kid yourself.

Dee Why. Pretty solid investment if you ask me - bought in a couple of years ago before the recent surge. It's fairly small but the value of the land itself is what's driving the prices. Hoping that in ten years' time it'll be around 1.8 million.

So you'd rather live in poverty?

fuck off you clueless SA cunt, you clearly don't own it if you don't know the difference between north shore and northern beaches.
And the beaches are shit investments. Maybe 30 years ago when it was a yugoslav poverty town it would be, but it's all overpriced shit now.
>>15444011

Don't you own a GT86?
They're the real rich man's car if you know what I mean.
>>15444141
Yeah but when it's in my name on the rego and the insurance, I can't afford it.
>>15444149
I can't be who you're thinking of. GT86's are alright, great for people who can't afford anything better who want to get a starter sports car. I don't think I'd ever own one though.
>>15444121
You're literally driving a Daewoo Lacetti with a Holden badge.
>>15444141

If I finished all the unfinished songs I have I'd have at least 3 albums but I just can't add the next part which is really annoying, also can't solo or do anything super technical due to having fucked up fingers so I can't put anything cool solo wise in my songs ;-;
>>15444299
Damn man that sucks. I'm pretty decent at improv solos but for just about everything else I'm fucked. I have no idea how harmonization works either.
Have you considered synths to help flesh out your music? I use mostly synths but I add some guitar to create a bigger sound sometimes.

>>15444307
I haven't actually but that could be a good idea
I have been thinking about properly learning piano for a while now tho just to expand what I can play and to try and get more movement in my fingers, broke the fingers in my left had as a kid while playing footy and they never healed 100% so they don't have as much movement as they should, I'm hoping that if I do piano it'll help get move my back
>>15444312
Fuck you brad
>>15444314
Piano could certainly help. At the very worst you can use a DAW to make most of the music.
>>15444321
Wouldn't mind getting an electric keyboard and some kind of midi setup happening either desu, would like to expand out and make some soothing electro stuff instead of just making metal, maybe even combine the two for some kind of weird ass music
>>15443914
Rich people areas, saw a little old lady driving one
>>15444327
Go for it man. I've been making synthpop that sounds like it's been made in a factory warehouse with some metal guitar and recorded on VHS. It's lo-fi and weird as shit but so much fun.
>>15444380
It would be cool to kinda push my boundaries and see what I can come up with
>>15444386
It's worth doing. Just make the music for you and have fun, don't try to make something others would like, make something that you like.
>>15444414
Yeah that's true, even if I never show anyone I should just make it for the fun of it
>>15436594
Any of you cunts been to Mt Gambier SA?

cbf reading thread
Got my dunnydoor back from shop
Looks better then before i hit the tree, random issues fixed.
Hnng so good to be back
>mfw rolling 2nd gear burnouts

>>mfw rolling 2nd gear burnouts
In a auto?
>>15444494
yerp
>>15444529
must have been raining
>>15444489
Haven't been round for a while, what hapoened with the tree?
Also did you get that driveshaft donut done
>>15444169
>new timing chain for an alloytech engine
they are worth more than the cars uleh
>>15444530
Nah just me being a dumshit going wot>>15444582
R8 my pinger
I've saved 5K what am i doing to my ke70 engine wise
>>15444897
it has a dead 4age by the way why did i not include that
>>15444582
>>15444582
donut is fine the driveline is fine not sure what the viabrations are possibly diff idk
>>15444892
looks like shit - dark colours will always be associated with dirty crap
>>15444897
4age with itbs and valvetrain work - go for high redline
>>15444897
>>15444903
Blacktop 4age swap it. Then add carbs and you have the best sounding car and still can go hard
>>15444907
Watchthe donut and etc driveshaft parts, they go very easily on those commos, especially with a few launches+skids
Change diff oil and check diff mount bushings+all other rear bushings
>>15444916
>>15444911
but my girlfriends mini will go harder, what engine swaps would you guys go for?
While on the subject, what is the going rate for a blacktop and a silvertop 4age?
>>15444925
SR20DET may fit
>>15444925
4age will be plenty with a bit of work
if you really want to go nuts you could go for a jz motor, though something like a 3gse/beams motor or even a 1mz would be cool
>>15444924
Thanks will do just got it back.
Nobody cant find anything wrong with it and it doesnt seem to be getting worse.
i daily on horrible roads that would make a wrc champion have such a large boner hes dick would explode probably black out so it could just be wheel alignment and balance issues i get that alot
>>15444943
i'm digging the fuck out of the beams engine but i really don't trust buying one from america and shipping it over for over a 1500
i'm pretty sure getting a 4age under 6.5 seconds will cost over 7 grand
>>15444951
Aye, get a rebalance and alignment
Shit tyres could do it too, so consider frying them, posting the vid here and buying some decent ones (srs)
>>15444960
honestly, I don't know what will fit in a ke70
1uz would be great because you don't need mods to do 0-100 in 6.5. Might be too heavy and wide though
Could also do some oddball stuff too. barra, volvo whiteblock motors
>>15444985
might give the 4agze a go if i can get one shipped here, worst case i'll throw it in the 1998 corolla because it's going to fit
>>15444444
CHECKED
>>15444985
>Aye, get a rebalance and alignment
done this like 2x already so its not that
Got new rear tyres also not that
THEN got another front allignment through insurance when the tree hit me and still it feels like slight driveshaft wobble not sure as it goes away at high speed atm
Absolute headscratcher, probably wheel balance as ive said but holy fuck is it annoying.
Doesnt help the big alloy rims can only have balance weights attached with fucking double sided tape.
lasts a while but still ffs pretty impractical
>>15445002
Put fronts on the rear and etc, check if it feels different
Check tranny mounts
>>15443972
Nah, I was keen to go but I never saved the pic with the details and only a few others were gonna go. It was just a mess.
Someone should set up a new melb meet.
>>15445015
>mfw staggered
cant rotate
18x8 and 18x9
also cars low as fuck
>factory height
its hard to get under the cunt even with jacks, ramps and flattening my fat ass out like a cockroach so yeah
from what i saw its fine nothing feels like its got excess play.
fucking wheel balance issues on these rims shit my to tears
>>15443237
The pic I posted earlier was a VL, is that what you consider a Tuner Boi?
>>15444141
>>15444150
>>15444155
Mangtecs are much better, don't sound as asthmatic as an alloytec and much more reliable. Just get a sick commo and when youre off Ps get another sick commo but v8
>>15445028
>18s on a commie
well there's your problem. Buy some cheap steelies (unless you're a real aussie and have a few sets in your backyard), see if it changes.
Most cheapish alloys are prone to bend/buckle, moreso in sizes 18+
Even oem ones could be buckled so it's best to just check with another set of wheels and eliminate
>>15444453
LHD, I'm assuming she migrated and brought her car with her
The other one I'm not sure, I only saw it in passing, pretty sure it wasn't the lookalike with the retarded rear end though
>>15445542
Neat
What's the age limit for regoing lhd cars again? 25?
>>15445973
Not sure if that's the case, I've seen old LHD corvettes and mustangs on the roads here
>>15444951
>i daily on horrible roads that would make a wrc champion have such a large boner hes dick would explode
mate
>>15445039
It's a little more bogan than the aforementioned rice burners, but it fits the price bracket and can be made quicker.
what's a gud battery brand?
wanna change the shitty one that is in my BA since it struggles supplying enough power for the windows to roll up
>>15445134
Wasnt cheapo alloys they where quite expensive CSA's
>>15446520
>mfw it actually is the roads WRC use
kek
>>15447446
If your car doesn't struggle to start it's not the battery.
Just sounds like typical Ford electric windows to me
>>15446873
I luv a good dose tho! haha
I'm buying wheels that are 9.5 wide fronts and rears, will I have any trouble fitting these on my vy? At the moment its not lowered but everyone is telling me the front will hit the struts as the tyres are 245/40.
If I change the tyres to say 245/35 or 30 should I be good to go?
