"newly painted signs claiming death to the US Imperialists"

hahaha!

just another threat from the North i reckon. not surprised in a way. see what happens next. the US probably were antagonizing them a little by flying B2 Spirit bombers around the other day!

Nik...you ready?
Adam...just remebered Pro Tip for rattle can painting (from Marty M.CM) heat up spray cans in hot water before use...comes out SO much finer and gives a really nice finish.

NK is cray cray.

Just remember that if you scratch powder coat, it turns into a cancer and will just start peeling away from the scratch, to fix, you have to completely strip the powder coat and re do it. I also found that no matter how I cleaned my old wheels (Powder Coated) they would always get swirl marks and light scratches in them. Took me ages to polish them all out. Plus side is it's pretty cheap!

Sounds like too much effort. Spray can it is! Haha.

I liked my old wheels black. Black on green just matches nicely

Radiator changed, coolant bled, ecu reset, oil and filter changed, fuel filter changed, air filter changed.

Now to get onto these wheels.

Thanks for the tip, Pete! I was going to buy it in a can and put it on with a gun. But cbf loading wheels and going to mum and dads for the compressor. Then cleaning gun and all that shit!

Back from Maroubra beach. Had an amazing time. Sun wasn't heaps hot, wind was decent and the waves were pretty cool! A nice day out with the family.

Not sure. I left it going last night when I was out. Came back home and it was still running but the display wouldn't come back on. Power button wouldn't turn it off so I unplugged it from the wall. Now it will power on but no post, no beep sounds.

Weird. I usually leave my computer running. Not sure why but it's a bad habit. Or may be I'm just impatient and can't be bothered with it booting up again (even though it takes bugger all time). That's a very peculiar issue... How long did you leave it unplugged from the wall?

I use Bendix 4x4 pads. Pretty decent, just all the dust

Thanks man. I guess that this is the easiest way to explain things in regards to brake pads.

Least dust = harder compound = harder on your discs
Most dust = softest compound = lighter on your discs

There's disadvantages with either one. I want to try and find the middle, or if I can't, I'll be going for the ones that give off more dust to protect the life of my discs. It'd be the cheaper option I reckon.

Radiator changed, coolant bled, ecu reset, oil and filter changed, fuel filter changed, air filter changed.

What are the exact benefits to resetting your ECU? How do you go about doing it? Is it just like rebooting a computer or is there more to it?

That's insane! So lucky that he's alright, but all those tens of thousands of dollars they would've wasted if the dragster had barrel-rolled...

Dog is driving 'ing bonkers. Lapping the yard barking at anything that moves on the other side of the fence. Not sure how to control!

On heat?

Puppy.

I can get her to stop. But sanding this wheel is going to take about 8 times as long if I have to keep stopping for her!
