MJ is still about... :)

Who remembers the "gunna be twin turbo next week mate" Falcon and his "show" at BP Coomera?

PS I'd pay to see Blacky on the road again John!

I dont think I was with you guys, but I seem to remember the falcon bloke... HAHA!

Pay you say....?? hehe, no really i wish... I think the only road it will see is the one around my house and possibly a few industrial estates.... it pains me to say it... maybe it could take a few no number plate excursions... i guess...

Yeah the very first meet you organised ado, and the crazy russian drove all the way from Brissie for it.

Where we all put down people who dont let thier motors warm up before giving it heaps, and then nearly everyone chucked a skid leaving :angry:

How close did that, "he dont care cause a v8 twin turbo next week", come to taking out bowser 12, I was so ready to take the bolt eh!

oh matty, i had that done about indy time last year..... i pity you, i reckon it was up there on the worst things ever list.... i still have holes where they should be, collapsed from hunger pain from not eating for a week.... mish... mouth so swollen and numb when i got home i could swallow the pain killers.... :P ok im stirring now, just remember 2 naprogesic and 2 panalgesics each time as required...

Was it that bad? Were you smoking at the time though? I hear if you smoke in the weeks leading to the surgery it all goes pear shaped...

:P

nah mate, don't worry about wisdom teeth

obviously there will be swelling, but i had no pain at all

just remember this important thing: buy plenty of juice and icecream

i lived on juice and icecream for 2 days and had fish+chips for my first meal and it was easy to eat and bloody awesome!

oh, and i lost 4kgs in 4 days!

anyway, july is great for 'the event'

cheers,

Warren

yeah i was smoking, i dont know if it was pain that made it bad for me, yeah i was smoking, and had to put gauze sp* packs in my mouth to stop the bleeding for like 2 days straight... first two days were pretty blurry lots of pain killers, either way i hated it!!

and july is good!

i hope there isnt going to be any kind of speeding or anything in this cruise. We've all seen teh commercials and "enough, is enough" Im a newb, so the usual questions apply, what do i need to bring, where are we going, where should i meet, can my sister, cousin and his cat come in their honda integra? Is there a map reference in the UBD directory, what channel will we be on, how many km's will we be driving and how much fuel would i need? What happens when i get lost, who do i call and can I have a time for all the meeting points for each different town and suburb?

Ok on second thoughts i'll just go with someone else.....

On a serious note i am still without a license so i doubt i'll be coming, but I will hopefully see some video or pics from this cruise as i know how entertaining Matt's cruises are.

and dont anyone forget SSSSLLLAAAYYYYEEERRRR... its probably already been said but i cbf looking back.

Excellent dental equipment you have there. It looks so inviting, almost painless.

When can I get an appointment?

Dude seriously? If that information was posted up we would have a whole heap of unwanted attention, all im going to say is we didnt buy sports cars to drive them like girls (no offence to girls). A full tank of fuel is all you need, its a surprise events thing and if u dont have a licence i dont want you driving your car newhere near mine or most of the other peoples cars using this forum.

    • Bit of a pity we don't have good images of the back/front of the PCB ~ that said, I found a YT vid of a teardown to replace dicky clock switches, and got enough of a glimpse to realize this PCB is the front-end to a connected to what I'll call PCBA, and as such this is all digital on this PCB..ergo, battery voltage probably doesn't make an appearance here ; that is, I'd expect them to do something on PCBA wrt power conditioning for the adjustment/display/switch PCB.... ....given what's transpired..ie; some permutation of 12vdc on a 5vdc with or without correct polarity...would explain why the zener said "no" and exploded. The transistor Q5 (M33) is likely to be a digital switching transistor...that is, package has builtin bias resistors to ensure it saturates as soon as base threshold voltage is reached (minimal rise/fall time)....and wrt the question 'what else could've fried?' ....well, I know there's an MCU on this board (display, I/O at a guess), and you hope they isolated it from this scenario...I got my crayons out, it looks a bit like this...   ...not a lot to see, or rather, everything you'd like to see disappears down a via to the other side...base drive for the transistor comes from somewhere else, what this transistor is switching is somewhere else...but the zener circuit is exclusive to all this ~ it's providing a set voltage (current limited by the 1K3 resistor R19)...and disappears somewhere else down the via I marked V out ; if the errant voltage 'jumped' the diode in the millisecond before it exploded, whatever that V out via feeds may have seen a spike... ....I'll just imagine that Q5 was switched off at the time, thus no damage should've been done....but whatever that zener feeds has to be checked... HTH
    • I think Fitmit had some, have a look on there (theyre Australian as well)
    • Hah, fair enough! But if you learn with this one you can drive any other OEM manual. No modern luxury features like auto rev-matching or hillstart assist to give you a false sense of confidence. And a heavy car with not that much torque so it stalls easily. 
    • Actually, I'd say all three are the automatic option. Just the different trim levels. The manual would be RSFS, no?
