When you know the best way to remove stuck large phillips head screws

When your wheeling tool kit consits of a 10mm,12mm,14mm,17mm wrenches and a impact screwdriver.

When passengers get worried about the amount of ratties/squeaks/groans
coming from your car...and you just say..."oh..it's always done that..."

Not knowing your "actual speed"

When 65 hp is a lot of power. AND

When a 1.6 is a big block.

When you get told a Cruiser with 35"s and lockers couldn't do it, the track rating is easy for your Suzuki...........

when 2wd on the suzuki does what others do in 4wd
when 4wd is considerd a last resort

Love this thread!

When you realise there is a strange noise coming from your driveline, and 15 years later realise that it is still there, but has not gotten any worse. What - me worry?

Cheers - Longbaser.

When you go from 0km/h to 80km/h and back to 0km/h without your steering wheel shaking you get worried that something is wrong.

When you replace rear brake shoes more often than you check the oil.

Layto....

When you have a peice of paper taped to the dash with the Actual speed you are traveling...


When you can take the valve cores out of your 38TSL's and the rim is still 6 inch's from the ground...

When you're speaking to someone who owns a RAV4, Honda CRV, Ford Territory (all soft roaders in general).
They tell you that theirs has full electrics, air conditioning and cup holders etc.

You reply with…











MINE HAS LOW RANGE

The clutch is that thing between the engine and the gearbox, and its optional if you choose to use it....

The clutch is the size of a 45 single (record that is..)

You pull the carby apart, and end up with a box of spare parts, and the car runs better...

You can pull parts off the lawn mower to fix it.....

You can remove the back seat, and you end up with an extra large wheely bin....

Some clown will then buy that said back seat for $200....

You can buy a new timing belt for $13.00, plan to take the arvo to fit it, have the job done in 30 minutes, then wonder what to do next....

when talking to someone you don't talk in kw or hp, you talk in tyre sizes

For Seirras:
when a three year old child can walk upright under-neath the car
when your banned from shopping car parks 'cause you get an urge to ramp up that Hond Civic

For Vitaras:
when a Lowerd VW Golf driver tells YOU your driving a girls car you go and park on top of theirs
when the biggest skid you have done is you sh!t youself when you drove up a ledge and all you could see was sky and someone saying over CB 'HOLLY F@CK'

when your doctor tells you you have bruised kidneys, and its not from drinking =)


i laughed at this till i realised its true!

even though the mrs says "today you can do whatever you want" she still doesnt let you show off to your mates by using her honda civic as a ramp.

when the mrs asks you to take her for a "DIRTY" weekend, you take her to the shed and make her repack youre bearings.

when you can change a tyre while 2 mates are holding the car off the ground.

when you get bogged (highly unlikely) you and three mate can pick it up and walk out with it

When your dog's nose touches the windscreen and it's tail touches the back window... fool_injected

When you rebuild & add a few parts to the front diff, you realise its worth more than the entire car when you bought it...

another suzuki fan from maroochydore i see (DEE)

when you finally decide to replace that busted door and find out the wreckers want more then the rest of the car for one part
