    I've also got some decent tyres on it which has made a big difference over stock ones too so definitely can't factor that out. Overall though i'm definitely happy with it being a good allround now as it certainly wont be the best in the straight or bends but should do each one nicely. Re lanch...

    Honestly, i've never had an issue with torque steer even with the generic tunes i've used in the past. I always drive smart though and know how a FWD responds which makes a difference against those who usually drive RWD or AWD. If i hopped in a RWD and tried to push it, i'd be dead Re the...

    Best place to buy GoPro?

    The Hero 2 is better quality, and has the advantage of being able to connect an external mic for good quality recordings.

    Is that impala of yours super long? I saw one the other day and OMFG it was HUGE! First time i've seen them in person - no idea what year it was or anything, but looked and sounded fantastic. Was the ol' cherry red :D

    Could have gotten mine cheaper if i want 2nd hand too :p But yeah, if i was offered now to buy them at the same price i'd still go the 5 but back when i bought it would have gladly gone liberty. Such fantastic cars! We've got the NA 4cly model and a mate has the 6cy, the 6cy is so smooth and...

    Err, where did i state a hatred towards Holdens? I said i'm not usually a Holden fan - that doesnt mean i hate them. I like some of their cars eg SS, Astra Turbo etc, but there are others which i don't like. I also don't like all of Ford's line up, all of Ferrari's line up either...who would...

    New 50mm

    Yeah i tend to agree. I think the 50's on a full frame would be about perfect but the cropped sensors it can be a PITA at times. @Punishd - That first pic is great :beer chug:

    Apparently you main globes are different colours...i couldn't tell the difference but mum was in the car earlier and reckons they are. I remember you saying something about that but i thought it was the foglights

    First pics from the new nifty fity. Wow, loving this lens already. Its such a nice little lens! Also gained an appreciation for aperature priorty. Usually i use shutter as its mostly Macro i do an i've found it to be the best, but it just wasnt working with this lens so i switched over to...

    No, i belive you are right. Backpressure is good for N/A, maximum flow is good for forced induction. here is a good read (it was in an article on turbocharge cars but has some info on N/A); To the OP - I'd be inclined to go with what the above guys say re brand. I never have owned one so...

    exhust ??

    Sureflow (i think thats how it is spelt). I don't own a comma, but i have heard them on 2 different ones now (both V8's though) and i honestly would be hesitant to go for any other. They are the nicest sounding commas i've heard

    It's certainly not bad for a Commo this car. A little slow, but its nice and comfortable. Don't drop it on its arse though mate...please. PS. Nice batch of Pics. Who ever took them has some skillzzzz (not really, but he gets lucky on the odd occasion)

    They werent even dreams of it being in oz when i bought the 5 :( Mondeo ones are quite nice. If you think its fast, try the focii! More aggressive over all, lighter and shorter gearing :D I also love the orange, only reason i didnt was i refused to pay $1,800 extra and then have to pay the...

    Claiming stuff on tax

    Compulsary work uniform you can (eg safety hats & glasses), as well as laundry of uniform. Potentially travel if you use it for going to different sites, going out and picking up stuff from the hardware when on site etc

    I know you can get glass polish, maybe buy some of that and give it a go? I've used the Autoglym one and its fantastic, however i used it to clean and get rid of the grease from peoples fingers etc that made it onto my windows.

    Out of curiosity, are you guys in 8's? I've actually taken on a couple SS & XR8's and beaten them...as well as a XR6 Turbo :p Mainly comes down to my car has loads of torque, no turbo lag and is lighter though.

    I forgot to mention my names Josh lol. Must admit i'm not a holden fan, however i do like their V8's (just an 8 fan i spose)...Mate had one of the older models, it was a 6.2L or something, very nice car! Pretty keen to check out some of the cars that will be on the cruise, interested to know...
