  1. Clean, tho the rest of the car is accented with black, maybe some sort of black rims would go well. Semi gloss to match the plastic trim.
  2. At the moment I'm researching political ideologys and general discussion around it. Generally just want opinions on different types and why exactly you think said type is better. Don't want flame comments about each one, just a general idea of what people are thinking. I have a survey here if you have some free time https://docs.google.com/forms/d/1OF4iDpYK5iYW1t1Uqg3GStLIf0RAYIgktPNE6G2-XqM/viewform
  3. Id disagree. HDD's and RAM are so cheap second hand its not even really a loss if it fucks up. Maybe get a new SSD for booting and important shit. I mean, 2 years ago i picked up 8gb of ddr3 for $10. One of my storage drives is the same. Never had a problem. As a general rule just buy smart and don't deal with shady people. Also picking up in person is always good.
  4. We have much higher pay overall though. Average wage is like 20k higher than the US and so on.
  5. I have an old 4.5hp motor sitting on the shelf. One day ill get the motivation to weld something up. One day.
  6. ...yeah maybe we are on different pages. I regular burnout/drag events over here in aus and the LS's never sound as good. Just listen to any straight piped LS vs BBC or even SBC. These videos sorta do it justice, its a lot easier to make out in person. LS motor BBC We have a rather crude saying in the burnout events, LS's sound like they have dicks in the exhaust I wouldn't go that far. Edit - Soz for using burnout events, videos were just quicker to find.
  7. Depends on the car. Some cars i reckon are meant to be loud, while some are better left quiet. But come on, whats not to like about rolling down a hill in third and just hearing pop pop popppop pop pop.
  8. http://www.ebay.com/itm/391196766794?rmvSB=true 250gb is selling for 80~ i think aswell if anyone is interested
  9. If I were you i would get a 240/180sx without an engine and transmission (if u want one), then buy a car with an engine that fits, but has been owned by some old geezer and has never gone over 40mph. Swap the engine in and you have a basically new car. All up you might pay a bit more than a whole car, but if its your daily, its worth it. Idk how comfortably you are with putting in engines though. One of my mates is doin it atm, and he's never worked on a car before, so it isnt that hard. Its actually a dying art it seems. One of my parents goes to work in a place where they use fleet cars, and one is a manual. They are literally the only person in the work place (100 people) who can drive it. In Australia though, we have auto licences, which don't permit u to drive a manual. And way more fun, lets not forget. Accidents happen. There was a wrecked f40 on fast n loud (which gmg sort of ruined) and its not like an owner of one of them would be a terrible driver...or young. Dual compound turbo I think. 2 complex 4 me. This guy explains it in aussie bogan terms lol. Id buy that shit in a heartbeat....if someone ships it to aus for me.
  10. True, if you actually want to stop quickly drums make it, lets say interesting...
  11. Just run it with stockies. No covers at all. Do some weight reduction . Extra 20kw at the wheels for sure.
  12. Disagree. Drums are fine. Had them on an old mack truck (real truck), not dissimilar to the one below, and that was basically the only thing that wasn't wrong with it. Sure, disks are better, not a must. I also run them in the rear of my ute and never had a problem, even when carrying about a ton on the tray. Plus upgrading to disks is so fuckin expensive.
  13. I like c10s better. Slammed/ airbags can make em look mint. Idk what its like where you live, but in aus cheaper and easy to get a 180sx. Not trying to sway your choice, just a point. Both go very well with rb30 and are hella fast. Turbos come cheap aswell and rb engines are good for high psi stock. (i'd put the 26 head in though, dual cam). Just some thoughts. @AlwaysFSX I dont see the appeal to mustangs, IMO they dont look great. i kid, i kid lol.
  14. I dont see why people like the new f250 to start with. Theres other better looking ones imo
