INASNT: Hahaha - Sth Yarra is always going to be Sth Yarra :D

I should have posed the Lada in some shots - just to give it that more down-to-earth feel. My brother will bring the Civic back on the weekend - so will take a 'family portrait' of all 3 cars.

Baron: Sth Yarra and BMWs - it's a common pairing.

The people across the road have the white 318i and the black 320CE Benz. Their daughter has a mint Mazda R100 - 1969 model with less than 10,000ks on it! Literally the 'driven to church on Sunday' car. Pretty cool.

The other Bimmer is a green 735i - they have a Pathfinder also. Next to my house are 2 E36 3-series. The end of the street has a current shape 525i and I think there are a couple more near the roundabout. It's like Volvos in Camberwell.

Yeah the i saw the LADA!

havent seen any on the road until wheel of fortune stopped flogging em off as the major prize!!!

:lol: Major prize?? :lol: :lol: :lol:

Why do Lada's have heaters on the rear window?? To keep your hands warm while you push em!!

In all seriousness, I want that car!! Very nice! Are the wheels 17s or 18s? They look sweet :drooling:

riggaP: The Volks are 18x9.5". Has 265/35/18 Pirellis on it.

And my Lada doesn't have a rear window (convertible) :)

However... what do you call a Lada with twin exhausts?

A wheelbarrow.

What do you call a convertible Lada?

A mini-skip.

:D

    • For fuelling the Haltechs have O2WB fuel controllers. Very useful for helping tuning VE and correcting for *small* mistakes. Of course if your injector/cam/trigger/sensor data is just wrong (or for a GTT which is not a GT) then you will get impossible reactions to things. I am sure you know this already but the reason people don't typically put haltechs (or any Aftermarket ECU) on GT's is because there's practically no real gains to be had - So this knowledge won't be commonplace.
    • Can someone tell me if the cracks seen in the rear sway bar bushings in these photo's is unacceptable from a roadworthy point of view?  
    • Shouldn't need a "base map" for anything other than guidance to ignition tuning. You just need the engine capacity right, the injector size right, and something, almost anything, for a VE map. On an NA engine, fuelling is almost completely a function of load signal & rpm. It should run and drive with a completely flat fuel map. It will be too lean under load, but that's easily fixed. We used to tune all ECUs without any base map. There were no such things (until someone had tuned a near stock engine on one, and then they had a "base map".
    • What did you actually buy/how much did it cost? When I got mine in like.. 2017...? 2019? the aim was to run Torque for gauges via ODB2 and things like Track Addict/Laptimers/Dashcam/Reversecam/Spotify etc. Mine never broke, but I wonder if you've got the same needs (it sounds like it). Cause I liked the idea of being able to do anything with it. That said, yours also cost 3x the cost of what I spent so... food for thought.  
    • For me there is a massive difference in manufacturer or big brand crippled android (Sony, Kenwood etc) vs the sort of thing I've installed here, which is basically just a tablet in DIN form factor with open Android, and the other model of course is mirroring - Android Auto/Carplay. I hate the locked down manufacturer and AA options where they decide what apps I'm allowed to install, including the Launcher but also importantly things like Ecutek (for this car) or Real Dash (Stagea) are not supported. Plus those crippled versions tend to be slower due to both overheads and lower spec hardware. On the other hand, when this breaks I'll likely be in trouble for support....but how is that different to owning an Infiniti anyway
