i hate sick bastards that rape and kill an 8 yr old girl

ohh and kidney stones

one of the closest things (in terms of pain) that a bloke can get to childbirth

(along with kidney stones, torsion is another thing that is very painful)

There is a place down the road that imports R32s and some mercedes. What shits me is that when they move the cars from inside the workshop to outside, instead of letting them warm up like a smart person would they rev the tits out of it from cold! Like constantly on red line! And THEN, instead of letting it idle they just turn the car off! I feel so sorry for the people like you or I about to buy these cars which are inevitably going to have problems..

Even worse though.. A brand new 2006 Ford GT was following me, I gave him shit, etc etc, ended up pulling over and having a kind word. Turns out he works for Ford and he drives one of the cars home. Which will end up being sold to someone. This guy was thrashing the f**k out of the car! It hadn't even been run in it! EVEN then, even worse! What I described with the R32s.. Holden and Ford do with BRAND new cars! Haven't been run in! Before people test drive them they "warm them up" by starting them, constantly red lining them then turning em off!

People wonder why these new Holdens and Fords are f**king up so often! It's because of these dumb arse salesmen f**king up the motors during the run in phase! Poor people! Any one of us could buy one of these "f**ked from the start" cars! That REALLY grinds my gears!

what really grinds my gears is cops...and the cocky way they drive. 8/10 (its the female cop drivers that are softer) coppers will always literally floor their cars when the lights go green. and when we do it...oh we ARE racing etc etc hooning etc etc.. the worse offenders are the unmarked police cars...there is a reason why your department now only issues u guys with v6's!! idiots.

f**kING PETROL PRICES. Let me repeat the million times done argument again.

It can take 10 weeks for prices to come down 10 cents per litre. (that's just being general, I can't remember regular ULP being below $1.30 for ages now)

It can take 24 HOURS to go UP 10 cents per litre.

The fuel companies "blame" this on the price of oil.

Now, for a big jump like this, the price of oil has to have jumped very high as well, not only a couple of dollars a barrel as it does. But when the reverse happens and the price goes down, does the price of fuel drop 10 cents?

Does it f**k.

Yes I just paid $1.51 a litre for Ultimate today, no-one give me the cheaper than bottled water/coke thing either, because I do agree with that but it's annoying that you see you're spending $50 for petrol & you have barely got 30L into your car.....

Yeh I hate people that thrash cars when they're cold, have some mechanical sympathy FFS.

Fuel prices shit me too, how does fuel that's already in the country when the price for barrel in the Middle East goes up, that fuel won't get here from 2 weeks or so, so why the fark does the fuel still in use go up, it total BS

People say if you don't want to pay lots for petrol buy a Shoebox car, the point is your shoebox may cost an extra $15 a week to fillup no matter what.

If i drive a v8 i get 450km to a 60L tank if i drive a toyota echo i get 540km to a 40l tank, if fuel goes up 15c a litre am i still paying extra for fuel no matter waht car i drive.

And that people is what grinds my gears.

On the news last night there was a foreign guy predicting $6 a litre petrol prices. Dunno when they will get there but that may take oil companies income to over US1 f**king lot of dollars per year.

Shouldn't what grinds your gears be the price of school fees, tuition and childcare? :dry:

great... better start saving for 5-10-15 years time...

i agree with dan, i let plenty of ppl in and they dont say thanks or anything...

in japan there's plenty of roads where there's no middle line cos it's too narrow to fit permanent two way traffic, so one lets the other through if he/she sees them coming. They actually honk back as a form of thanks... rezz? reading this?

The Middle East grinds my gears, just kiss and make up ffs! the gaza strip isn't worth fighting for, all the fighting that's already happened means it's f**ked!

oh yeh, my main problem with it is that it gives an excuse for petrol co's to rise the price 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"
