lol yeah true. but like my disclaimer said, they were all done on private property, except the tiidas. i actually had the 7 elevens permissions to do a burnout in front of their fuel pumps! it pays to have connections i guess

no, i had just bought 4 new tyres for it off a guy from SAU actually. 16's with brand new dunlops on them! $250 for all four. we made quick work of two tyres in that burnout, but they were WAY too sticky for anything else after that.

i'll get the photos of the tyre marks soon for you, oh and the PILES of rubber left afterwards :happy:

o rly? so they ran 7-11 head office "yes, one of our local hoons needs to borrow some concrete for a few minutes".

but i guess the cops can still do you for noise pollution and useless stuff like that even on a private property.

depends on the zoning really? he can just say to the cops "get off my property now!" they cant do much really, except ask us to keep it down i guess.

also, we would have just told him it was someone we dont like and given them his address :happy:

rob - "do a burnout, i'm bored!"

mike - "where?"

rob - "right in the middle!"

mike - "ok"

no probs, glad you liked them. they were the only abusive vids of work cars (that we got on video of course) i'll make some more soon. might start up a thread for it :P wonder what marc would do :(
*gets ban stick ready*

Nah as long as it's clear that what you were doing was on private property (and I mean private property, not "private" property) then it's all good. Just make sure it doesn't get you fired :laugh:

just label it something boring like "post here if you wouldn't spend above $2K on a watch" he'll never look there :ninja:
:)

Bah @ people who can't appreciate the "pay for quality" philosophy :P

no, i'm gonna have to take marc's side. i'd rather have the watch. the watch wont lose value as easy, not everyone has one, they make you look cool and everyone thinks your rich because of it and its much harder to steal than a car :(

    • Yeah well per the video it took 15s for the stock unit to start up....even if I give it a few seconds discount for starting that is at least 12 sec before you get a reverse camera if you are trying to leave a park.  The android unit is way faster, but 2016 for the stock unit is a long time ago in consumer electronics
    • Yea that’s why I said ima test them with multimeter and see the reads.
    • Only at idle. Isn’t a problem when rev it seems.
    • @Haggerty This seems silly to ask, but are you confident in your ability to tune the Haltech?  
    • Next on the to-do list was an oil and filter change. Nothing exciting to add here except the oil filter is in a really stupid place (facing the engine mount/subframe/steering rack). GReddy do a relocation kit which puts it towards the gearbox, I would have preferred towards the front but there's obviously a lot more stuff there. Something I'll have to look at for the next service perhaps. First time using Valvoline oil, although I can't see it being any different to most other brands Nice... The oil filter location... At least the subframe wont rust any time soon I picked up a genuine fuel filter, this is part of the fuel pump assembly inside the fuel tank. Access can be found underneath the rear seat, you'll see this triangular cover Remove the 3x plastic 10mm nuts and lift the cover up, pushing the rubber grommet through The yellow fuel line clips push out in opposite directions, remove these completely. The two moulded fuel lines can now pull upwards to disconnect, along with the wire electrical plug. There's 8x 8mm bolts that secure the black retaining ring. The fuel pump assembly is now ready to lift out. Be mindful of the fuel hose on the side, the hose clamp on mine was catching the hose preventing it from lifting up The fuel pump/filter has an upper and lower section held on by 4 pressure clips. These did take a little bit of force, it sounded like the plastic tabs were going to break but they didn't (don't worry!) The lower section helps mount the fuel pump, there's a circular rubber gasket/grommet/seal thing on the bottom where the sock is. Undo the hose clip on the short fuel hose on the side to disconnect it from the 3 way distribution pipe to be able to lift the upper half away. Don't forget to unplug the fuel pump too! There's a few rubber O rings that will need transferring to the new filter housing, I show these in the video at the bottom of this write up. Reassembly is the reverse Here's a photo of the new filter installed, you'll be able to see where the tabs are more clearing against the yellow OEM plastic Once the assembly is re-installed, I turned the engine over a few times to help build up fuel pressure. I did panic when the car stopped turning over but I could hear the fuel pump making a noise. It eventually started and has been fine since. Found my 'lucky' coin underneath the rear seat too The Youtube video can be seen here: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=uLJ65pmQt44&t=6s
