    It fails to mention the correct context is that it is used when you're in denial about having them... Sent from my iPad using Tapatalk HD

    My VP "Toolbox"

    Replaced the harmonic balancer today, took 3 hours to crack the bolt, an hour to pull it off (after having to modify my brand new puller) and not even 5 mins to put it all together again... Also replaced the odometer cog- was a lot easier than I thought it would be! Just going to fit new bulbs...

    My VP "Toolbox"

    Finally got some money to spend on the toolbox, Drove an hour to Harvey's wreckers (there are a few closer but I decided to stick with one I know) and came home with a few goodies: Front bench seat & belts -as much as I was looking forward to building up a console I thought reinstating the 6...

    vr brake pads

    Jxw's part numbers are correct, on v6 and v8, only different if aftermarket/4-6pot calipers fitted... I think from memory db1246 interchanges with db1085 too... Been a while Sent from my iPad using Tapatalk HD

    My ride..

    Love the front bar, but have to agree with the others about the interior and that spoiler... having said that, its your car so as long as you love it who cares?

    Things that p*** you off/bug you/annoy you

    What has pissed me off this week is the entire day yesterday... First of all I went outside to find a flat tyre on the car. Then I went to work and found a heap of rubbish sitting beside -not in- the skip. Started picking up the rubbish and got my left boot full of ice cold water. Emptied said...

    Im not a fan of the gts front, the square bit above the plate just doesn't look right... Also don't like the Lamborghini ripoff skirts on maloo, Everything else looks fantastic! (Rear on pic of the gts turns me on the most) Sent from my iPad using Tapatalk HD

    Looking at the camouflaged pics the front badge has been moved down to the middle of the grille splitter thingy so I'd say your comment is 100% spot on... I really hope they go for a full height grille, the black strip in the bonnet looks terribly cheap and nasty (could never understand why fpv...

    My VP "Toolbox"

    Not going very far right now, left the glove box off when i was mucking around with the stereo and forgot about the globe! plus it seems every time I get a bit of money saved something happens to the current daily driver or the house... Worse case scenario I will have to wait for tax to finally...

    Tail lights!!! I've settled on my tail lights for the toolbox, I'm not a fan of the altezza style IMO it just doesn't suit the body shape, so what I did was purchase a rhs standard style cluster with the clear lens and gave the centre section a good dose of red lens tint. I'm quite happy with...

    Things that p*** you off/bug you/annoy you

    I ordered a set of spark plugs for the wife's car (she doesn't seem to like towing my trailer on five cylinders) they were shipped Friday and they gave me the tracking number straight away and according to post it hasn't been lodged yet... How the bloody hell did they get a lodgment receipt...

    Is that what they call it, I'd say its more of a snout - a bloody ugly one at that. Every time I see one I can't help but wonder if there was a Lexus parked out the front of the design studio at the time...

    Do you one better: What if someone did all that and painted the wheels to look like giant chev badges too?

    Jack and jackstands

    I've got cheap kincrome stands, lock in well and pretty sturdy, as for a jack doesn't really matter too much brand wise just check the width of it - the Skinny ones are fine on a nice smooth slab but normally have a tendancy to tip on uneven surfaces. they also have a pretty small cup on the top...

    My VP "Toolbox"

    Purchased a new head unit this weekend, nothing wrong with the old one it just didn't have an aux input... Got a el-cheapo JVC KD-X40 from JB Hifi for $88 - nothing too flash, but plenty powerful enough to make musical noises appear from the speakers. I've always gone for Sony, and the only...

    Parked like an idiot....

    I hate it when people do that when there is plenty of spaces available for trailers, but what really annoys me is when I go to my local hardware I often have to do it myself because of idiots parking their cars in the trailer spots to get 6m closer to the timber yard entry... Or worse yet...

    My VP "Toolbox"

    Nah nothing wrong with column shift, this would be my 3rd one, many moons ago I even had a work van with column shift manual- pile of rust but loved it! Plus as a bonus it gives me plenty of room to make a decent console up (just gotta find out if I need to put a bench in for rwc first) I...

    Thanks mate, considering I paid nothing for it I couldn't be happier was expecting it to be a huge mess, it's had a hmgem reco motor put in about 6 years ago according to the book, and as far as I can tell so far only thing to worry about in the bay is slight leak from rocker covers (who would...

    Here is the car of my dreams... Had one rock up in the workshop when I was but a 16 yo apprentice and ever since I've always wanted to get one and totally do it up (certainly be a unique project) Never uploaded pics using this app so fingers crossed it works
