Between the bitching I got a couple good tips, lol thanks. Damo doesnt really have a decision in what i get, cause he thinks he was in the car when it happened so its his fault, so he feels guilty, mainly because I almost cried when he told me!!

I'm just not allowed to go over $8,000. Though from everything said I am more leaning towards getting a bull shit RB25 or selling and getting a gtr, wrx, 200, something like that!!

this site is seriously turning f*ked up, stop deleteing my posts, im allowed to say that someone is shit and have evryeone hear it if i dont belive they should go there, its not slander its the truth!

just dont be biased and delete my post becuase you like him!!!

Gold Two: [the Y-wings are running the gauntlet toward the Death Star reactor-port] The guns - they've stopped!

Gold Five: [realizes why] Stabilize your rear deflectors... Watch for enemy fighters.

Gold Leader: They're coming in! Three marks and 2-10!

[Gold Two is slain by Darth Vader and his wingmen; Gold Leader starts to panic]

Gold Leader: It's no good down here, I can't maneuver!

Gold Five: Stay on target.

Gold Leader: *We're too close!*

Gold Five: Stay on target!

Gold Leader: [shouts] Loosen up!

[he too is picked off by Vader and Company; Gold Five tries to escape but is fatally winged]

Gold Five: [reporting to Red Leader] Lost Tiree, Lost Dutch... They dropped in behind us, and we couldn't maneuver in the trench. Sorry; it's your baby now. So long, Dave...

I dont know why no-one has mentioned a MIVEC engine from the mitsubishi FTO. With an RB30 head and forged conrods from HRT. My mates cousin has one putting out just under 1000rwhp on 2psi boost, but he just bought it...

ANYWAY

My serious advice, throw an RB25 with some work in it. I thrashed the living turd out of mine for 3 years and Chris is still doing the same with no major problems.

As for where to take it, I would have a talk to a few mech's and make your own mind up from there. Listening to other peoples views on any service industry is much like asking them if the eat more oranges than apples, everyone has a preference but neither is actually wrong as there are always good and bad days for each each fruit.

Rodney: There is no law saying you cannot describe a personal experience that is true. A Current Affair on channel 9 would not have many stories if this wasn't the case. It is perfectly legal for you to broadcast any personal experience that you so wish about a company if what you are describing is true, its not right for a truthfull post to be deleted in this manner. If im selling a product and it causes people to stop urinating, it cannot be taken as slander for the person who stopped urinating to stand in the street and tell other consumers the truth. ie "Smooth's Cola made me stop urinating, don't by Smooth's Cola unless you want to loose normal urine function".

I could get into more in depth legal crap, but im not that bored.

Good day. :)

In English and American law, and systems based on them, libel and slander are two forms of defamation (or defamation of character), which is the tort or delict of making a false statement of fact that injures someone's reputation. "Defamation" is however the generally-used term internationally, and is accordingly used in this article where it is not necessary to distinguish between "libel" and "slander".

You can't say someone is shit, if they’re not a pile of steaming hot poo. Clearly the person you think is shit would really be a human, and not the said pile of poo you may think they are. Thus due to the fact it could and maybe would affect there reputation outside of this Internet forum depending on who was to read the thread, and whether or not said people whom were reading the thread knew whom the person was.

Obviously my example is pretty trivial, and would probably be laughed out of court, how ever I making a point, as I’m generally right.

He lost it all when he bought the crouch rocket  :P

Something like that :(

FWIW, it's nobodys choice about what can be posted or not other than Christian's... It's his site, his rules, and not a democracy... And he says no negative comments about businesses. <--fullstop

So get over yourselves...

Ahh that felt good... /me goes and hides again...

    • Hi, is the HKS  Tower Bar still available ? negotiable ? 🤔
    • From there, it is really just test and assemble. Plug the adapter cables from the unit into the back of the screen, then the other side to the car harness. Don't forget all the other plugs too! Run the cables behind the unit and screw it back into place (4 screws) and you should now have 3 cables to run from the top screen to the android unit. I ran them along the DS of the other AV units in the gap between their backets and the console, and used some corrugated tubing on the sharp edges of the bracket so the wires were safe. Plug the centre console and lower screen in temporarily and turn the car to ACC, the AV should fire up as normal. Hold the back button for 3 sec and Android should appear on the top screen. You need to set the input to Aux for audio (more on that later). I put the unit under the AC duct in the centre console, with the wifi antenna on top of the AC duct near the shifter, the bluetooth antenna on the AC duct under the centre console The GPS unit on top of the DS to AC duct; they all seem to work OK there are are out of the way. Neat cable routing is a pain. For the drive recorder I mounted it near the rear view mirror and run the cable in the headlining, across the a pillar and then down the inside of the a pillar seal to the DS lower dash. From there it goes across and to one USB input for the unit. The second USB input is attached to the ECUtec OBD dongle and the 3rd goes to the USB bulkhead connected I added in the centre console. This is how the centre console looks "tidied" up Note I didn't install the provided speaker, didn't use the 2.5mm IPod in line or the piggyback loom for the Ipod or change any DIP switches; they seem to only be required if you need to use the Ipod input rather than the AUX input. That's it, install done, I'll follow up with a separate post on how the unit works, but in summary it retains all factory functions and inputs (so I still use my phone to the car for calls), reverse still works like factory etc.
    • Place the new daughterboard in the case and mount it using the 3 small black rivets provided, and reconnect the 3 factory ribbon cables to the new board Then, use the 3 piggyback cables from the daughterboard into the factory board on top (there are stand offs in the case to keep them apart. and remember to reconnect the antenna and rear cover fan wires. 1 screw to hold the motherboard in place. Before closing the case, make a hole in the sticker covering a hole in the case and run the cable for the android unit into the plug there. The video forgot this step, so did I, so will you probably. Then redo the 4 screws on back, 2 each top and bottom, 3 each side and put the 2 brackets back on.....all ready to go and not that tricky really.      
    • Onto the android unit. You need to remove the top screen because there is a daughterboard to put inside the case. Each side vent pops out from clips; start at the bottom and carefully remove upwards (use a trim remover tool to avoid breaking anything). Then the lower screen and controls come out, 4 screws, a couple of clips (including 3 flimsy ones at the top) and 3 plugs on the rear. Then the upper screen, 4 screws and a bunch of plugs and she is out. From there, remove the mounting brackets (2 screws each), 4 screws on the rear, 2 screws top and bottom and 3 screws holding in the small plates on each side. When you remove the back cover (tight fit), watch out for the power cable for the fan, I removed it so I could put the back aside. The mainboard is held in by 1 screw in the middle, 1 aerial at the top and 3 ribbon cables. If you've ever done any laptop stuff the ribbon cables are OK to work with, just pop up the retainer and they slide out. If you are not familiar just grab a 12 year old from an iphone factory, they will know how it works The case should now look like this:
    • Switching the console was tricky. First there were 6 screws to remove, and also the little adapter loom and its screws had to come out. Also don't forget to remove the 2 screws holding the central locking receiver. Then there are 4 clips on either side....these were very tight in this case and needed careful persuading with a long flat screw driver....some force required but not enough to break them...this was probably the fiddliest part of the whole job. In my case I needed both the wiring loom and the central locking receiver module to swap across to the new one. That was it for the console, so "assembly is the reverse of disassembly"
