| 1/4 mile claims | 09 Mar 2008 07:20 GMT | 71 |
Does anyone remember that "general rule" formula that estimates a quarter mile time based on nothing but power and weight? A friend of a friend had an ECU reflash and the other usual things people do to modern cars (exhaust, cold air, etc) and now gets 277kW

Apparantly, you can put a Subaru engine in them without too much difficulty. http://www.customveedub.com.au/store/index.php?act=viewProd&productId=57 Fitting a WRX engine would surely let it do wheelstands. Roger

Just came back from the bank and spotted one of these at the lights. Very smart looking car (for a Subey) and it took off quite quickly. So I decide to do some checking up on it and found its a 3.3lt flat 6 and was built for the Pommy bastards market. (just for you JT).

| Scrapyard Challenge - ABC2 @ 6:35pm | 09 Mar 2008 05:49 GMT | 6 |
Watched this last night for first time. Two teams were let loose in a scrapyard to gather whatever they needed to build a fire boat each. It had to float, move across a lake, put out a raging fire and return. Awesome stuff! One team modified an old Land Rover which they cut in

| will new Falcon go the way of the 380? | 09 Mar 2008 02:03 GMT | 86 |
Just some thoughts on the new Falcon launch vs the 380 launch a few years back. At a time when environmentalism is becoming mainstream, the public is moving away from 6's to smaller cars, and fuel prices are on a high, another car is

| RACQ says Mazda 3 better than Mitsu Lancer and Ford Focus. | 08 Mar 2008 19:56 GMT | 12 |
Those dumb pricks at the RACQ must have been on the piss at Mazda all f.cking week to place it in a league above the Lancer and Focus. f.ck me, 3 shitboxes for a shithouse result! Having driven the 3 of them, I would rate the Mitsu as the better of the 3 by a long shot, followed ...

| auto 1993 Pajero 7 seat wagon $4,500 | 08 Mar 2008 15:11 GMT | 8 |
As you have all probably guessed by now, I'm on the prowl for a cheapie 4WD. Unfortunately the Cherokee I looked at Friday, seems to have too much to be done to it to even get a roadworthy, so I'm putting it on the backburner. Now I have just seen a Pajero in a not too shabby ...

Or anyone who regularly drives the M2 or M7 in Sydney. I got this suspect email yesterday. Just wondering if there's any truth to it as I can't find anything on their website. Sounds like BS to me.
