what would you do daza? Sink your car?

There is more to the cape than just the OTL
Dane, I was under the impression that Nolan's was not bypassable if you are on the OTL, gunshot yes, Nolan's no.

UAI means squat once you are an adult so don't worry about that. Contact the University Admissions Centre and discuss your needs with them. USQ has a really good Mech Eng program that can be done externally. If you did an engineering trade you'll get decent recognition too.

40L in the tool well? Isn't the well itself only about 30L? Would a tank in the tool well be classified as internally stored fuel?

Jason, how much fuel do you want to carry?

I used to have an L that would hit 180 in 400m or so of straight, and then brake in time for the corner at the end.... But it was no ordinary L

Anyone that uses 'quick' 'cornering' and 'L' in a positive manner in the same sentence has their hand on it...

Sorry about that, I just fixed it. Problem lies in there being a 'quick moderation' section on the main page ( http://www.ausubaru.com ) that currently shows '0' threads in need of approval. So all is well! Problem is that if you actually go into the 'For Sale' section, it shows '19' ads requiring a...

I got mine in '96 and they are still going strong. Not only do I dry them out after use but I throw them in the washing machine!!! Then they go on the line (undercover) and stay there until I next use them.

Nolans Brook... How you guys planning on getting through 1-1.2 METRES of water? That is over the bonnet on Patrols, Cruisers etc, no standard Outback is getting through that unscathed... If CREB is shut, take the coast road, nearly as fun but without the gate... just something for consideration... O...

lismore has about 6 roads going to it, which one are you talking about? I have driven most of them and can't think of the place. There is a Subaru wrecker there though.
