Sitting in the waiting room at Rising Sun Performance, waiting for my Skyline to come back from the tracking workshop. On the lappy on their wireless network. Very bored. You owe it to me to write some stuff in here to keep me occupied.

Why not see how far you can get this helicopter without crashing.

It's like some nightmarish speccy game but is damn addicting. Kinda reminds me a little of Airwolf.

If you get bored of that you could always mess around with line rider - no matter how bored of it I think I am, I can always go back and play with it, can't wait for the DS version

Good guy, Good guy, Wan...

Well...one time my friend proposed he had found a way to make a kitten and a dog mate, but by that point i was too disgusted and walked away. And everything you've ever known is wrong.

We are nothing more than a simulation to stimulate your tiny brain into thinking that you are okay. We are at the epicenter of a master control scheme known as the eliminator, he will rock your world. To answer to him is a constant death sentence.

@Van

I'm on my IBM work lappy. No games are allowed. I was frantically searching for mine sweeper on here, but to no avail! It's free of all entertainment medium. Having said that, I reckon I could get away with playing a flash game or two online. Untracable!

@Zombie

Too profound for a car garage! You needed to say something about axle grease and BHP for that to connect with me at this time.

Cheers for the stimuli lads.

Ok, just saw an R33 roll in, and it looked like mine. I'll love you and leave you guys, and drop back on later once I'm at home .... assuming I can afford the bill and aren't beaten up for not paying.

Have you got a bag of peanuts? See how many times you get told off for throwing them at people in an hour, then try to beat that record.

Heh heh. Thats the thing with performance cars. When I had my Scooby it was constantly "Oh yeah, and if you add the new brakes and a couple of <insert tech here> then the service comes to £1100. Then there are the tyres...". A service every 6 months kills you. Loved it

Saw a P1 the other day out here. Not often you see one of them, even in the UK. Class car. And it was actually a P1. You get a lot of cars here that try to look like other cars. The amount of M3s is unbelievable. Really. I mean, hmmm, newer body style, M3 badge, nowhere near the amount of proper bodykit (seriously low front spoilers I think not), and only one twin exhaust. Hmmm. Could have done a bit more research and added a fake twin exhaust on the right although it would have made me laugh harder. Easily could have nicked the 2nd twin exhaust of that Honda Jazz that just went by

Hohohohoooo.... And then the "M3" gets left at the lights by a stock fiat Panda. Sigh. Wouldn't mind so much if the "mean machines" actually went quickly, then they wouldn't take so bloody long to roar past my window. Nice convertible Ferrari goes past every day, isn't as loud, but luckily is gone in a nanosecond. More like it. Bloody shopping trolleys with airplane model kit bodykits I don't like...

Cheers

I am 99% probably lying in bed right now... so don't blame me for crappy typing

hehe. Yes, these cars eat all your money. I just had rear camber arms fitted and front castor/camber bushes, and 15mm raise then full alignment. All came to the tune of £590, and that was slightly discounted due to me having to hang around like a plumb. Still, cheaper than the £1200 I was quoted by Abbey Motorsport. It's when it costs you £590 to get your wheels aligned (where normally it'd cost you £40 at your local tyre specialist) you know you're driving a performance car.

Anyway, front left tyre no longer rubs on the wheel arch. I can get over speed bumps (I'm guessing) and go up small inclines without slicing into them with the splitter. And more importantly, I can glide over lorry rutts without being thrown into the path of on-coming traffic.

Also found out that I have Tein Type Flex dampers fitted, which are the absolute shizzle (I also have the EDFC computer unit in the glovebox so I can change ride stiffness in seconds without actually getting out my tool box and monkey wrench).

All in all, a happy bunny now.
