    Anyone into Body Building...or go to gym??

    mate you're 100% right - after 12wks you won't know what hit you! the key to improving is consistency. don't go missing training sessions etc. assuming your PT is any good, he has booked you into times that not only suit his diary, but work well with your overall program. make sure...

    Anyone into Body Building...or go to gym??

    hey mate good to see you're doing some cardio after all! Your current weights program is a good one, just as long as you keep the cardio up! Training in the morning is a good idea also. thats when i encourage my clients to train also. as for your pics, you've got some good muscle...

    VT SS Dash

    Hi All Just wondering, does this look like a genuine dash in this VT SS? There are no trip computer functions there (from what i can see anyway) - i thought the SS would come with the 3 LED display, as with the Calais in earlier models. To me it looks as though the dash may have just come...

    Most Hated AFL Team

    i used to be a hardened collingwood hater, but lately i've changed my hate over to Hawthorn. Too many pretty boys for my liking. Crawford is a tool, Lekkas, Dixon, Croad, Brown, Franklin, and then the big whinger Sam Bitchell. They all just annoy me. Gotta bet i was happy when Swans (my...

    Chasers arrested again

    just read another article, yes - Chas dressed up as Bin Laden, and they had actually got him through 2 levels of security before he got out of the truck and ran on the street. thats when they arrested him. good news is that apparently ABC still managed to hold onto the footage. bad news...

    Go The Crows!!

    true.. to an extent. i will always back my own team, but in saying what i did i honestly believe that is what would happen. i'm pretty confident Swans will win sat night. Big test will be against West Coast the following week. i believe who wins out of West Coast vs. Swans will win the...

    Phoaaaaaaaaa!!!!!!!

    i was just about to say the same thing! anything that happens in bankstown i just let it slide... i keep the pro lock and the tyre lever next to me, but i've never had the chance to use them luckily. and if someone in bankstown tried to start me, then i'd just let them go. your 2 types of...

    Go The Crows!!

    Hawks v Crows: Hawks were terrible against the swans. Crows are great at their best. CROWS Pies v Swans: Pies got us last time, but that was Swans playing without any backline. SWANS in a close one Power v WCE: very tough, depends how Judd pulls up. i think the Eagles should win, but i...

    Street "hoons" Report done by Disqualified Alcoholic

    Viper 3002 alarm

    i still can't see why people buy car alarms. if you have an imobiliser and a club lock, this will stop your average theif from stealing your car. a kill switch will make it even harder. therefore all your average theif can do is take stuff out of your glove box. now unless you carry...

    Manual Licence

    seeing as i've mastered the very basic manual driving techniques (clutch goes in, clutch goes out) and have no problems there, i've always been interested in learning advanced manual driving techniques. my dad, his dad was a truck driver (first truck driver to drive from Sydney - Perth in...

    HELP, i'm getting rorted by my mechanic!

    it sounds like you may have a better case now, with his evidence not being exactly 100% independant. and i know i'm probably sounding very negative, but if i were in your shoes i would probably do the same as you too. i would be pursuing it, especially if total cost is only a few hundred...

    Last Chance Learners

    i have 2 opinions on the show. 1. it is friggin hilarious and i'm going to watch it every week because i find it hilarious 2. despite how funny it is, it's scary to think that these people will be out on the roads with me shortly. they may know how to use a clutch, and how to look both...

    HELP, i'm getting rorted by my mechanic!

    we're sure you haven't, and hopefully in this case it doesn't apply. But if the defendant's lawyer (if he has one) looks on this site and sees that it is skewed towards vehicle modification, performance, etc. they may try and use it against you in the case. In your defence i would be saying...

    Rules for the australian heterosexual male!

    number 10 is classic i've done that before hahaha number 27... true. even though the missus has an echo, i'll still drive it. but she doesn't drive my car (i tried teaching her to drive manual once. i could smell the clutch for like an hour afterwards) and the last one cracked me up hahahah

    This Gear Knob is COOL!

    while it does look very cool, i'm not sure if it would actually work on a Commodore, plus who has the time to look at what gear they're in? Most manual drivers just know :)

    HELP, i'm getting rorted by my mechanic!

    mate i'm going to be 100% honest with you here. i don't think you have a great case, and to be honest i'd be surprised if you win. in saying that, i'm not saying you're wrong, in fact i'm inclined to believe you - a lot of mechanics out there are dodgy. however in this situation, your case...

    any one else suffer from this

    Once again thanks to Samuels who started this thread - well done mate! and again i'd just like to pump the website www.beyondblue.com.au which is great for the thousands of people who suffer anxiety / depression. It's been getting a lot of press via public figures lately (sports people...

    any one else suffer from this

    yeah mate worked for me. got myself some self confidence, the ladies started talking to me a bit more, i got myself a girlfriend (who i've now been with a year and a half) and haven't really looked back. one thing i've noticed about depression and others that have it - they (and i used to)...

    any one else suffer from this

    can be. it was part of my problem. another thing that helped me get through depression - i got some confidence. how? i spent 2hrs at the gym every 2nd day, then got myself a job at the gym and worked even harder. put on 10kg of muscle and with that came confidence and a better mood and...

    dobbing in hoons? what's the truth?

    i did the same thing on the weekend. came out of my house at about 11pm to find the whole street out there... we had all heard the same thing - a massive bang. we saw a VN commodore parked at the top of the street, but there was no damaged vehicles anywhere that we could see (i'm the only one...

    my car stolen and burnt out

    any one else suffer from this

    Another stronger form of anxiety these days is diagnosed as depression. I had it for a while, my girlfriend has it, and my dad has a very strong case of it. Many people dismiss depression, and say its a crock. Many people say that it's just people not being able to cope, or that they're...

    Views On Gun Laws

    couldnt agree with you more. while now would be a perfect time to try and change the constitution (you have to hold a referendum in australia, not sure how it works over there) there is no way that america would change their gun laws. Bush didn't even hint at the idea. he just made mention...

    The Vn is goooone

    its quite possible that only 1 person is truly at fault, which is the 1st person to hit the front car. in theory, if each car applies the brakes with some delay, if all the drivers are leaving adequate gap, then there should be space to stop. however this doesn't apply if the cars run up...

    Car Models

    no difference in the engine, the only difference is that SS come regularly in manual, whereas Calais is very very rarely manual. the calais is a much much better car though. The SS is not much more than an executive. It has FE2 kit, LSD, fog lights and a body kit. And in the VN it has a...

    lol very strange. but yeah i am with JustCar and i've found them awesome. i asked Shannons about insurance, and they wouldn't insure me because my car wasn't worth enough apparently (must be over $6K i think) Definitely tell you about the CAI. 100% this is a necessity. If the insurance...
