  1. pretty certain it's software, being that it turns on and shit... IF it somehow turns out to be hardware, then yes, it will cost a lot of money, and you should leave it to the pros... BUT IT'S NOT! FOCUS PEOPLE!

    srsly, the shortage isn't that bad... it just started out with V Power Racing, and they actually had a reason for it! I don't know why others are out, but I have never really had any problems finding stuff... If one station was out, the very next one I went to always had some so far...
  3. zackly I went to a really good one of those once... was static and dust free and the workers had to wear air tight suits Their prices for what they charged were astronomical too! I got a quote to just change the motor on the HDD and it was over $500... Me thinks they work mostly for businesses, not little people like me... Either way Dif, if you turned it on to find there was nothing there, that means the hardware is fine and you are only missing the header files... a software program will be able to sort that out and get most, if not all, of your files back
  4. $270 is a shit price for a piece of hardware that still works, it just wiped the header files... the HDD isn't broken...
  5. that's about every possible reason you would ever have to change it... The center feed style that the OEM plenum uses is actually a lot better for sharing PSI evenly to every cylinder, where unless you run some extra boost, larger plenums such as those from Plazmaman, can sometimes cause a bit of starvation... again this only really matters if you are chasing every last KW... All the other reasons though are valid... Keeps inlet temp down cause the piping doesn't run straight back over the fan on the radiator, OR the block... Increases throttle response due to shorter piping... looks a SHIT TONNE better... all good reasons
  6. Aaaaaand there goes one... Bad luck whatever the reason is
  7. STOP GIVING OUT FREE ADVICE!
  8. Bahaha, what an emo email address
  9. *magically pulls corinnes email address out of arse* I KNEW I had it stored somewhere...
  10. neither of you people are on my MSN... Corrrrrinnnne, if you don't get it fixed, give me a bell...
  11. A catalytic cracker malfunctioned, and while it was temporarily shut down, they decided to do a scheduled shut down of the entire plant for up keep or whatever the f**k reason... it was going to be a few months later, but they decided to push it forwards... They were also going to import V power Racing I believe to cover losses...
  12. You're best off getting a VG30 turbo (which I also have, but I plan on using for a short while maybe)... This turbo doesn't even have a wastegate... The VG30 turbo has steel wheels (though I am yet to see an R33 GTS-T turbo that doesn't) and a larger exhaust housing... Or you can get a miriad of other turbos... hi-flowed GCG one perhaps... the choice is yours But this turbo is a mid range (these days) turbo for an external wastegate type set up... Something I hope to achieve one day, if I can ever find a damn ECU I like!

    There was a truck filling stuff up at the Pymble Shell... last time I went there (this time last week, but late at night) they had plenty of V power racing... perhaps they will again...
  14. I just got effed in the A... rocked up to the servo on the main road and they had traffic cones blocking the driveway! And a truck probably filling the bowsers... though the driver looked shonky... I think he knows we're onto them
  15. Well I've been trying to become an Exec since the last AGM... It's rather annoying organising club events and not being one...
  16. I haven't had too much trouble as yet... only ever had to go to a second station a few times... But yes, you may be on to something
  17. That is my first plan, if I can find the receipt (which I'm sure I will) and it is still under warranty, then no doubt I will go through them... but incase I can't, or it takes too long, then I will go through other means... Thanks anyway chris, I think I remember FHRX saying he had a deal with Kenwood... spose I will wait and see
  18. If there is anyone here who sells Kenwood gear and can ship stuff off for repairs, I could really use your help. I have a KVT-747DVD player in the car, and have spent 2 days trying to figure out if it is anything wrong with what I have done... So far no, every wire works, there is power to everything, all wires are how they should be... The screen comes up saying "Disconnected cable found. Please confirm a connection line." I'm assuming this means there is a break in the system somewhere, which is something I simply can not find in my wiring... The head-deck itself works fine, with all motor functions doing as they should, it is the hideaway box that worries me, I have no real way of testing if that is working, and have come to the conclusion that it is that box that is malfunctioning... With a slight chance of it being the large black cable that connects and communicates with the head-deck and hideaway unit... again, no real way to test... I'm fairly certain I bought an extended warranty on this item, but there may be problems with that, being that it was bought from JB and they no longer sell car audio gear... and that I can not currently locate my receipts folder... and that I have moved twice... A search is underway, but how fruitful it will turn out to be is a mystery I'm pretty certain that the hideaway box needs to be replaced or fixed, and I am willing to pay for whatever service costs it may have as if it were out of warranty... So if anyone is in a position to help, let me know... til then, I will continue to look for the receipt and practice doing this Thanks
  19. Dude, it was like Saturday night... I figured you would have had plans! Why didn't YOU call me?!
  20. PM me on just how cheap... we may all be interested
  21. I'm still going to approach certain entrants with certain cars to see if they would like their cars raised for the show... providing they pay for it... it's not much for something like that, but being a non-profit organisation, it throws our budget of $0 way out the window
  22. No shit, I was going to call you at one point, then for some reason I didn't... We hit up your old work joint in the end too
  23. Happy bday baby Hope you have a good day!
  24. I spotted her in Hornsby shortly before that... Shoulda come over dude, I had a crazy night!
