wgmg people who have their ipods too loud on the train or bus :banana:

haha..there's this guy on my plane everyweek that has his ipod on so loud i can hear it with my earplugs in and through the drone of the plane. And when the plane lands and turns the engine off he is still singing >.>

People who can't merge properly, can't change lanes properly, can't negotiate roundabouts properly, can't indicate properly, people on the freeway who can't do the speed limit, and people who don't indicate when turning right at an intersection with no filter lane until they are in the middle of the intersection.

So yeah, most of Perth.

WGMG?

Old people driving who can't drive for shit.

Like recently, I approached a round about and slowed and stopped cause an old man and his wife in a Toyota Camry were coming through and they had the right of way. Then the dumb bastard stops in the roundabout to give way to me, while he holds up very busy and angry traffic, even with me signaling for him to go and the traffic behind him going nuts he still wouldn't go!

He eventually went through... I could have gone infront of him but I didn't because 1) he wouldn't have learned anything and would continue to do it. 2) I'm pretty sure it's illegal for me to cut infront of him.

Also, just to save another post.

WGMG?

WA police with their double standards.

A cop lives next door to a guy I work with. The cop bought a brand new VE ute, I looked at it today and he had the tint done since I last saw it. I could barely see through it was that dark. The tint on my car is darkest legal, his was about double the darkness. He might as well have sprayed his windows with black paint...

He wouldn't ever get a sticker for that, Yet they'd pull anyone of us over and try tell us our tint is too dark...

thats a bit rude huh double standards indeed....

i once had a mate who made up some police bumper stickers that read...

cop/crim

theres no differance

he got pulled over that many times but he never ever took it off as he knows its not illegal

id put one on but i only like to be raped by surprise

some dudes have nothing better to do huh

wgmg

getting a beesting in the most anoying place ever (no not there i said anoying not painfull)

smack in the middle of my right palm it hurts to hold my beer damn it

Drink more & you won't feel it?

school holidays ....... it phucks up everything!

at least there is no 40kmh school zones :)

WGMG..

People who dont park properly.

PARK in the CENTRE of the lot please.

NOT ON THE WHITE LINE

and if u can see i have taken the time to PARK nicely. PLEASE PARK NICELY NEXT TO ME, NOT 5CMS AWAY FROM MY CAR, EVEN THO THERE IS PLENTY OF OTHER SPACE AROUND.

i swear to god, i will put a knife in ur tyre.

+1

Especially in Curtin.... :)

    • I know why it happened and I’m embarrassed to say but I was testing the polarity of one of the led bulb to see which side was positive with a 12v battery and that’s when it decided to fry hoping I didn’t damage anything else
    • I came here to note that is a zener diode too base on the info there. Based on that, I'd also be suspicious that replacing it, and it's likely to do the same. A lot of use cases will see it used as either voltage protection, or to create a cheap but relatively stable fixed voltage supply. That would mean it has seen more voltage than it should, and has gone into voltage melt down. If there is something else in the circuit dumping out higher than it should voltages, that needs to be found too. It's quite likely they're trying to use the Zener to limit the voltage that is hitting through to the transistor beside it, so what ever goes to the zener is likely a signal, and they're using the transistor in that circuit to amplify it. Especially as it seems they've also got a capacitor across the zener. Looks like there is meant to be something "noisy" to that zener, and what ever it was, had a melt down. Looking at that picture, it also looks like there's some solder joints that really need redoing, and it might be worth having the whole board properly inspected.  Unfortunately, without being able to stick a multimeter on it, and start tracing it all out, I'm pretty much at a loss now to help. I don't even believe I have a climate control board from an R33 around here to pull apart and see if any of the circuit appears similar to give some ideas.
    • Nah - but you won't find anything on dismantling the seats in any such thing anyway.
    • Could be. Could also be that they sit around broken more. To be fair, you almost never see one driving around. I see more R chassis GTRs than the Renault ones.
    • Yeah. Nah. This is why I said My bold for my double emphasis. We're not talking about cars tuned to the edge of det here. We're talking about normal cars. Flame propagation speed and the amount of energy required to ignite the fuel are not significant factors when running at 1500-4000 rpm, and medium to light loads, like nearly every car on the road (except twin cab utes which are driven at 6k and 100% load all the time). There is no shortage of ignition energy available in any petrol engine. If there was, we'd all be in deep shit. The calorific value, on a volume basis, is significantly different, between 98 and 91, and that turns up immediately in consumption numbers. You can see the signal easily if you control for the other variables well enough, and/or collect enough stats. As to not seeing any benefit - we had a couple of EF and EL Falcons in the company fleet back in the late 90s and early 2000s. The EEC IV ECU in those things was particularly good at adding in timing as soon as knock headroom improved, which typically came from putting in some 95 or 98. The responsiveness and power improved noticeably, and the fuel consumption dropped considerably, just from going to 95. Less delta from there to 98 - almost not noticeable, compared to the big differences seen between 91 and 95. Way back in the day, when supermarkets first started selling fuel from their own stations, I did thousands of km in FNQ in a small Toyota. I can't remember if it was a Starlet or an early Yaris. Anyway - the supermarket servos were bringing in cheap fuel from Indonesia, and the other servos were still using locally refined gear. The fuel consumption was typically at least 5%, often as much as 8% worse on the Indo shit, presumably because they had a lot more oxygenated component in the brew, and were probably barely meeting the octane spec. Around the same time or maybe a bit later (like 25 years ago), I could tell the difference between Shell 98 and BP 98, and typically preferred to only use Shell then because the Skyline ran so much better on it. Years later I found the realtionship between them had swapped, as a consequence of yet more refinery closures. So I've only used BP 98 since. Although, I must say that I could not fault the odd tank of United 98 that I've run. It's probably the same stuff. It is also very important to remember that these findings are often dependent on region. With most of the refineries in Oz now dead, there's less variability in local stuff, and he majority of our fuels are not even refined here any more anyway. It probably depends more on which SE Asian refinery is currently cheapest to operate.
