My car runs excessivley rich (flames out the exhaust) and I have that discouloration above my exhaust also. bleh! CutnPolish gets it out every time!

Natural progression items to mod ? 1. Exhaust, Cat back 2. Intake 3. Boost up (small) 4. Front Mount Intacoorla! 5. Exhaust, Dump and Front, and Cat. 6. Boost up more At this point you can choose to start blowing intercooler pipes and working your turbo too hard like our buddy Hicks. Or take the other A/M Turbo Approach, possibly bigger injectors and all the stuf that goes with it... this is when you start spending the BIG $$$ (something I'm not going to do) -Kym.

And a flapjack scar to match! :lol:

hehhe, owned by our "young" friend Ken huh? You show'em Ken. anyways, I'm about to do my first service (read: 11,000kms) with new engine oil, diff oil, and the 2nd batch of gearbox oil. plugs, filters, the lot. may even play with the timing looking at mobil Synth in either 10w-60, or 5w-30, castrol VMX80 shockproof g/box oil....I'm doing it all myself, I don't like paying someone for thier time for something i can do myself and have fun doing! _Kym.

I do believe the pass was 12.79 right? Go on GOT BOOST, you can do it....

Yeh, just ask paul, i broke his heart once.....

I've taken my dash of countless times thus far, so if you do need help i'll more than happily helpya! (and you dont have to batt your eyelids, just smile is enough!) It's a 5minute job really, simple stuff.

hahahah, Bribes ? THAT I can do A private screening of said shirt would be in order tho'

valentine's day eh? Mucho sexz0r or cruise with random cars... tough tough decision...

oh daym! come on, just for me? *batts eyelids* Ohkay, ohkay, it's not the "in style" bleh! it was worth a try

i like the idea of the web address around the collar.... but black polo's ROCK. logo on the chest for the men and have the afterburner lights on each boob for the women you know what's really kinda schmick, is those lanyard/key holder/neck strap thinggo's.... I been lookin for something to hold my keys, other than my bitch-whipping chain (just ask paul) that is becoming fragile....

you'll be waiting a long time joe... he always tells hicks' he'll call, but never does... ... night after night hicks is left by his lonesome...

Bob Jane in northbridge hey. i bought my last set of mags from there. The guys name was Paul, top bloke he was, didn't bullshit unlike _our_ Paul just kiddin buddy...

I'd be in... $30/car sounds good.. can they fiddle with my timing while im there ?

Daym mate, shit definitely does happen. I'll now be hiding my spare keys in my room better (chaining them to parts of my body!)

Hey metblue.... Nah, that switch doesn't do that on mine, it's been disconnected and re-used for other mods. The aerial is controlled by the radio on/off remote wire, and fully extends normally. Just intermittantly extending all the way grrr!

Dude, the car's fine hey. hence I'm at work right now.. Define "disturbed" an airbag sensor... bumped it? knocked it? I thought airbag sensors are only at the front of the car? (havent been up there) as for power to the fuel pump...dun think so, i still hear the fuel pump crankin' it's all okay now as I didnt remove this resistor thing. and the car STARTS without it, just wont keep going. thus, the reason it's back in I just wanna know what the hell that thing is and what it does! Oh yeh, and to work out what airbag sensor i have "disturbed" and how to fix it...

that'd be one large bolt eh ? daym!

^bump^ come on, anyone?

also posted in general discussion, but nothing yet. so i post it here for the experts among us. While fooling around with my electric aerial over the weekend, or should i say "that area of the car" I noticed something strange. there's a metal resistor-like ceramic and metal doohickey attached to inside the rear quart panel next to the electric aerial, I had to remove/disconnect it to get the aerial out and stuff....put the aerial back in, and still didn't find WHY the hell it wont go more than halfway up.. grrr! anyway Jump back in the car, go to drive off, and the airbag light is now on!!!....I don't think i bumped anything down there but still... Back to the metal resistor/doohickey -- When I pull this out/disconnect it the car wont idle for more than a minute. I start the car, everything is fine.. then 30secs later is stops.. cuts out completely. nothing. starts fine again, 30secs later the same thing. Maybe it's unrelated, but now my airbag light is on. I've tried an ECU reset, but cant think of anything else to try eh... HELP!

the oil colour ? like normal oil colour..orange/amber clear colour. why ?

I used an old film-roll cannister first.... that seemed to have "dissappeared" WHOOPS! Wonder where it went/what damage it caused

thanks Paul. kewl.... just wanna be sure there's no deeper faults with it...
