Door Slamming
Door Slamming
Argh it happened again!
Does anyone find when they are in someone elses car they will slam the door hard as hell? I've gotten to used to those heavy doors
Just want to know if anyone else does it?

Watch your speed - It's virtually impossible to pick it out of the carpet if it gets blown off the table.

chunkhead man I agree with you, passengers usually have no respect. My gf now leaves the door open for me to close 'cos she says "I can't do it right by you!!!" and storms off.
The truth is that the right was is not SLAMMING THE DOOR!

My JA has perfect motor - FMIC - forgies - high flow head but...rusted front guards and keyed on every panel. Time to get serious or time to take it to the tip.

Most people complain how heavy the doors are and forget that the seatbelts are in the door so i have to quickly move the seatbelt out of the way if its going to jam...
Then i get in my mums little plastic Diahatsu and almost rip the doors off because im so use to the Starion ones

Most of the time I have to remind people not to slam the door in the Staz, including my wife and kids. If a window or the other door is slightly open, a gentle push will close the doors nicely, otherwise a slighly less gentle push. I'm forever having to lean across and stop the door from being slammed.
I can understand why people do it, though - most other cars need a decent push, but with doors on the Staz adjusted properly, you can be a 40kg weakling with bird flu and still close the door with a satisfying "thunk".

yeah u got to watch women around your starions they seem to cuase alot of damage . My Girlfriend opened my passenger door up into a tree 2 weeks after 8 months worth of a bare metal respray and left a nice dent in between the body lines . her excuse was that she didnt see the tree and wasnt aware of it being there , my response was, "its as round as a person and about ten foot high u cant fuckin miss it" !!! . :x
