Skip to 13-14 and you'll see where they were talking about it.

FYI theres been a lot of cars knock off in the last couple of weeks. Both private and through ram raids & break-ins at car yards.

One of the bayer boys was pulled up last night, as one of them is going to court in feb and wont be getting out for a while - all chop shop related apparently...

Oh and you know what the chopper found last night on the heat scanner?? A bloody rock!

Funny story about police scanners (I just feel like telling a story) My first car (Lancer, full on rice it was) was parked out the front of work late one night. Back in the days i worked at coles... Only one left in the car park since i did night fill.. Anyways, I get home at about 10:30 and dad is sitting there and says "Now what did you do?" I was confused and said "I was at work...." After some confusion and him interrogating me he told me that he heard his name (Car was rego'd in his name) on the scanner. He thought the cops had pulled me over for doing something. They must of just done a check since it looked sinister sitting in the empty car park. Coolstorybro?

OT: Installed my front lip, taking santa photo's, then tonight doing a photoshoot of a BMW 130!

Got the new exhaust today for the Protege. Berklee PEX straight through muffler (with resonator, new pipework and tips), incredible exhaust tone. Well worth the $200 for the lot
I think my fuel economy is going out the window though. At higher revs it sounds amazing!

Also bought some new speakers today. Option Audio 6" Splits for the front, Soundstream SST6.9 for the back and an Alpine Type R sub

Woken up at 11pm by my brotger saying him and 5 others were robbed at knife-point by some Asian gangstas at graceville station, and now I've taken half the day off, feel sick and have Learnt how to dismantle our door locks, been to the locksmith and paid $100 for new ones, still need 6 sets re cut though, more money, been to the bank, sherwood police station, and am now bored at acacia ridge station waiting while he puts in a statement. They were on their way to collect some guys who they think did it and hopefully I can give them this rebarelling fee kgb have charged. So 5 phones and not even $100 cash really wasn't worth this hassle idiots. Thanks.

At work, last day before two weeks holidays.
Went and interupted Rupewrechts' auction surfing and picked up some HB brochures. I've answered the phone this afternoon so may have to go home early.
