    Im 17, but when i was 16 i woke up to excruciating pain in my lower back thought i just needed to hang a leak real bad but it didnt go away, after about 5 minutes i was like a silverback gorilla running around and then called an ambulance. They did an ultrasound but couldnt find any problems...

    Prank wars

    Yeah i grabbed some pallet wrap from work (Bunnings) and have wrapped about 10 cars so far, best off by rolling it under and over the car around the door handles. Also, whilst you have the glad or pallet wrap, get your mate shitfaced so he passes out. Strip him off and wrap him too a pole at...

    Pizza Delivery Jobs

    My mate hates it, he works for Pizza Hut and he uses his own car. He gets paid like a $10 hourly rate but doesn't receive any money for petrol. Apparently they don't tax him and that's meant to cover the petrol costs. But the running costs of your car such as tyres and maintenance will, in my...

    Most dangerous car for P platers to own.

    When i wrote of my VS a few weeks ago, it really opened my eyes about how easy it was to lose control of it. Slamming the concrete pylon at roughly 60-70km/h was real scary stuff, but I doubt a Charade (Or similar car) would hold together in that situation as well as the VS did. Now that im...

    NSW P's test

    Yeah man passed my NSW P's test like a month ago, first time on my Bday. Just get your instructor to take you over the courses before you go one the test, I only had one lesson just to learn the courses and I was sweet. Even though it seems stupid, whenever you move like 1m in the left or...

    Death of my VS (Picture Heavy)

    How can i tell if if my gearbox is screwed?? Like it engages all the gears and what not, and how much effort is it to take out my manual gearbox and put it into an auto VS?? Or is it just not worth it??

    Death of my VS (Picture Heavy)

    Hey fellas, just thought I'd share the pictures of my now written-off VS :rip: Late Monday night after I finished work, i was driving home in the pouring rain that NSW is currently experiencing. Before i tell you what happened i would like to say i was NOT breaking the law in any way or form. I...

    VS spitting soot

    I have a similar problem, my back end of the car is always covered in black soot and im getting terrible fuel economy (about 300km to the tank in a manual driving like a grandma). Error codes are all fine, whats the next step as i take it its using an over rich fuel mixture??

    Tight spot

    Whilst rather intoxicated my mate called his brother to come pick us up in his Tarago, he failed to mention there were 14 of us. Although i now realize how stupid, illegal and unsafe it was (so dont flame me), it was possibly one of the funnest experiences ever haha, every bump you can feel the...

    info on vs ute.

    +1 to what VrWagz said, I didnt check my cars suspension when i bought it (I know, shoot me) now im up $1600 for repairs to the dodgy and unsafe suspension :bang:

    Pedders suspension quote, reasonable?

    @ 89 VN, I believe it is IRS as the rear wheels have negative chamber, also Pedders and a local shop confirmed it. It could of been IRS all along, and the bloke who owned it was a holden mechanic, but he didnt exactly look like a 'genius'. @ hako, your right I should probably shop around and...

    Pedders suspension quote, reasonable?

    I have no idea, but if its not possible i guess it was IRS all along, whichever the case its IRS now. Yeah I thought the wheel alignment was a bit dodgy, and yeah the labour does seem a lot for the springs and bushes as people do them by themselves but I dont want to screw it up. Yeah ill...

    Pedders suspension quote, reasonable?

    Hey guys I bought my car a few months ago and the guy I bought it off lowered the car himself, he did not change the shocks (they are original shocks). Its sitting on King Spring superlows on the front and King lows on the rear. I have noticed squeaking noises from the rear and occasionally...

    info on vs ute.

    Welcome mate, yeah I agree with everything gustov said. Fortunately nearly all of the VS Utes are manuals, however prices for a ute skyrocket over the prices for a sedan. (Every P plater wants a VS Ute). I bought my first car few months ago, like you i wanted a vs ute, but the prices of them...

    Anyone good with wood- what sort is this?

    Im not great with wood, but the cupboard looks like a Rosewood, kinda like New Guinea Rosewood to be exact. (The reason i say this is due to the tight uniform grain and colour) I could be wrong however.

    How to freight wheels?

    Really? ****. They do have tyres on them, smartsend quoted nearly $100 so i guess that sounds fairly reasonable.
