what is this topic you speak of?
Neoplasm.
Neoplasm is an abnormal mass of tissue as a result of neoplasia. Neoplasia ("new growth" in Greek) is the abnormal proliferation of cells. The growth of neoplastic cells exceeds and is not coordinated with that of the normal tissues around it. The growth persists in the same excessive manner even after cessation of the stimuli. It usually causes a lump or tumor. Neoplasms may be benign, pre-malignant (carcinoma in situ) or malignant (cancer).
In modern medicine, the term tumor means a neoplasm that has formed a lump. In the past, the term tumor was used differently. Some neoplasms do not cause a lump.
Straight from wikipedia. lol.
damn straight :D how are you patty?
Somebody was up early this morning...

Hey Brett can you explain the point of the peanut butter bottle to me?
im doing 2 jobs, but sca is off the cards for the moment.
Peanut butter bottle? WTF...
That breather valve on the valve cover is a 2 way system - air goes in at low rpm's to cool the valvetrain and pushes air out under pressure.Quote:

There is no need for it to do that and I believe it's extra 'energy' that is not needed.
By running the hose into a vented catchcan,the air can go in and can vent out under pressure no worries.
My only concern was air will not be easily going in to cool the valvetrain at low rpm without that pressure behind it BUT it is not a problem,my engine does not heat up,the set up works fine.
anyone wanna come for a drive tomorrow, passenger or your own car? I'm going to go do a cruise run to get times for a upcoming event. :)
Nice anime avatars Mikey. Maybe not tomorrow. However. the next JDMST meet is on this Monday (the18th).
I will have literally put in my new suspension that day, so I might be keen.
How 'bout everyone else?
Ah hah finally Mikey, getting onto it. Sadly I am out this weekend altogether, my granny arrived from England the other day and had her 80th on the plane! So we are going to be having quite the "family" weekend.
But keen for the cruise itself :D
i might just go off what google map times say :)
Lol Mikey I would have come! But I'm driving a V8 Supercar today :D
nice nice!
Pics or ban!
troy, were's my dash mat mate?
Did you want me to order you one?
Isn't it the other way around...?
Pat have you been drinking again? :D
LOL, did you see those comments I made?
Nah I havn't. I thought you wanted to buy the dash mat?
Yes it's the other way around, that's the joke. But now he is not at SCA anymore so I might just have to find one myself.

Needs description! Looks nice Mike, did you see them at a racing track?
Just a nice pic of facelifted EK9s.
Who knows what's under their bonnets.
Obviously it's taken in Japan.
Haha it wasn't obvious to me when I posted. They do look nice, as much as I would usually prefer white when it comes to car colours, I think that blue one looks so sweet with the white rims.
hay guise.
How is may 14th looking for everyone, free? coz cruise may be then.
Afternoon but not morning for me.
EOI Thread up now!
Reply quick guys so i can setup up an official event.
My EM1 is now slammed. Thanks for the help Brett!
Pics anywhere?
soon man, I'm so busy atm, plus it's too rainy to take a pic atm :-s
Here's a pic. Finally slammed. [IMG]http://i55.tinypic.com/2116u6g.jpg[/IMG]
Looks so much nicer Mike:thumbsup: How do you go with gettin it up your driveway?
Surprisingly, the driveway hasn't been a problem. I just make sure to take it nice and slow. Some places are a bit scary, so I'm taking it easy. I've noticed some dips in the road can make it make a slight sound in the front, but I'm not sure if its the stuts compressing or slight scrapeage on the lip. *edit* - yes it was the lip, it has some new scrapeage on the bottom.Quote:

It also gets more looks now, due to the tough stance. I'm lovin' it.
So Timmy, what about this meet and fast and furious you were talking about last time I saw u?
On second thought, sounds good.
Awesome man that's what ya wanted:)Quote:

Yeah i think it was tonight but not many cars were going so i decided not to go.Quote:

What's next... jeez, I haven't thought about that. I'm just gonna save some cash up in the bank for now and think about that later.
Looking good Mike, very nice. :D
when are you getting new wheels mike :P
Are they 17's? Looks so much better low :)
Check this bad boy http://firesport.com.au/2008-mugen-r...--ad181884.htm
Thanks man.Quote:

I'm not a big fan of my wheels, but I don't wanna fork out for new ones. If it ain't broke, don't fix it.
You gonna upgrade to that RR Chris? :D
Maybe its the profile of the tire that makes them look bigger. Yeah 17s are homo lol.
Hahaha if I was rolling in cash i'd buy it get someone to film me rallying in it and then post it on OH and see how long it takes for me to get assassinated.
found out what was scraping... it was the blood loose splash guard, phyew! I did manage to scrape a tiny bit a little tonight on a dip in the road in Red Hill. Just gotta be careful and learn which places are no go zones.
here's some more spam for today. [IMG]http://i55.tinypic.com/wjtbn6.jpg[/IMG]
In answer to your previous question Timmy, my next mod is smoked tail lights. I reckon it'll look good on a silver car. I've just ordered the tint.
Mike that's fckuing nice man! I've noticed EM1's tend to be able to go very low on the front yet have some height at the rear.
With the damper settings, how far have you gone so far? And what do you think will be the optimal setting? Stiffer on the rear and softer up front or the other way round? And how does it feel when you get towards the stiffer settings? Do you find if it's very stiff you encounter more understeer (mostly due to shit Australian roads more than anything else)?
You and i have to get together soon, I like the sounds of a 'vtir night' lol, should be good. You got my number, text me when your free bro! :)
Ps that's almost exactly the sort of height i want my dc2 to drop to. Form with function. Who said you can't have both???
I've been playing with my damper settings, I'm still working out what is the right balance. I'll let you know when I finally settle on a setting.
However, I imagine your coilovers will be different. As a general rule of thumb, should be firmer up front and softer at the rear, but don't quote me, I'm still learning.
I'm not getting understeer, it has great response/feel. Feels much less like a FWD, great tried and true Spring/shock combo.
Tomorrow I'm trying 75% firm front and 50% rear.
anyone want to go to drive ins next weekend? Thor and Fast and the furious 5! $16.00
Sounds good Mikey.
Could look alright something different;)Quote:
