No Hating


I'm not really biased to any particular type of motor, however i did discover today that a stock SR is harder to get to engine mount bolts of than a 1J in a silvia........pretty retarded but anywho.

Part of me likes this, V8s are seen a little different in aus in that they are considered a 'bogan' thing, they are really prevalent in Commodores and Falcons and are stereotypically driven by knuckle draggers and meatheads...but putting that aside and looking at the practicality side of things it definately has its merits, especially in something that is easily 600-700kg lighter going by the current crop of new V8s we have.


News Team Assemble!!!


Today more less went something like that.

Got a message from my good mate Jack today who was bored, possessed by a demon and wanting to help remove the SR......it now lays in its birthday suit 6 1/2hrs later, i can almost hear the 1J yelling in excitement.......or is that just the radiator bubbling.......hmmmm

Monster Tajima

Straight off Speedhunters but def worth putting up, been a big fan of Tajima now for at least the last 4-5yrs and have followed his racing of Pikes Peak. This video is definately up there in terms of the feel and quality......

Think F1 drivers are onto something when they rate rally car drivers above themselves (well schumacher does anyway, least he is half modest unlike Alonso, Vettel and Hamilton).

Things that i noticed...

- 4.04 - theres a corner on Pikes Peak called Grouse Hill, if you're an aussie you might get a laugh from that, i know i did (but i am a little strange).

- 6.45 - really does prove that Tajima is the king of this ant hill, thats a fairly fierce drop on the right hand side and he chews it up and spits it out quicker than that shithouse blackberry hubba bubba.


Enjoy :), make the effort to watch all 11mins, def worth it.

Where's Wally


Probably over in that pine forest........but pay attention to the WRX in front of the forest. Its probably way too low for aus because you'll create a traffic jam at McDonalds drivethrough at 2am but it is fucking cool, especially with the pipe out the but. Only one thing could turn this thing from cool to plain rad.......your friendly neighbourhood anti lag.......firey, angry and very loud anti lag.

All Nightmare Long


Supras and huge turboes go together like lamb and tuna fish......how about spaghetti and meatball? you more comfortable with that terminology
