That sucks hombre! Sounds like an interesting project.

Similar note: The airport now has an actual waiting bay and it's free for 20 min. To prevent people going in and leaving after 15 min and coming straight back, there's a camera that snaps your number plate as you enter. Interesting tech.

sick belly, need to be near amenities, lol.

nerdy stuff is an EtherTen board(arduino variant) setting it up and programming it to be a car counter for a driveway, but will ignore exiting cars, and ignore pedestians, while triggering a PTZ camera to pause its patrol, and swing around to capture the number plate of the entering car.

wait whats this ignore pedestrians so no upskirts pics?

I forgot to say that the counter once up and running, will be viewable from a web browser to see how many cars have entered that day, that year, and how many spaces are left

Nicely done. Sounds like some nifty engineering ther.

So jelly. I wish my job involved jet setting to Japan and getting to drive sexy JDM cars (she can keep that rental-Yuck!). I'd come back 10kgs heavier from all that awesome Asian food and trying to tell the gate staff that the 34 cat back system I have stuffed down my shirt is actually a very high tech spinal brace.

Thats ok im a great replacement

I dunno if my 34 ('The Ark') would like that very much. There is a single blonde Silvia driver in Victoria ;)

Milk bar is a term in some parts of Australia for suburban local shops or general stores. They are known as tuck shops, delicatessens or delis in South Australia and Western Australia, and as corner stores in Queensland and New South Wales. Milk bars are traditionally a place where people pick up milk and newspapers, and where school children purchase milkshakes or lollies.

they also used the term back in the 40-60s in the us, and here for the shops that sold milk shakes.

these were a local hangout/past time for youth.

I have also used the term for local take away shops that sell hamburgers and chips, etc.

    • Reading through the engine service manual their advice is do a cylinder balance test. Unplug one injector at a time and see if the idle drops a consistent RPM. You can also do this using a Consult cable which is easier. They also call for unplugging the power transistor, then with the engine off and the fuel rail unhooked from the manifold verifying that you have good fuel flow (even injection, no dripping/leaks, etc) when you twist the CAS by hand. Also verify the spark by pulling the spark plugs and allowing the plugs to ground and turning the CAS by hand. I would also start doing the sensor checks and idle valve checks in service manual. Make sure the MAF tests reasonably, the intake air regulator is sane, etc. You may have to get new spark plugs.
    • This sounds very old of me, however since buying the Tiguan shit box, my view on shit boxes have changed.
    • I've looked up the parts number (41011AL501). It's around $700 OEM. Usually our Infiniti G35 here in Canada have interchangeable parts with my Stagea but the parts number are not the same. I have looked around and it seems the JDM 2005 V35 Skyline (which is the same as our G35) has the same caliper but I cannot confirm. And I can't find a repair kit. The inner brake pads drags on the rotor, seems to be rusty piston. Thanks for the info by the way
    • This coupled with 6-9 speed autos with ridiculously short gearing is why these modern shitbox cars always seem so fast off the line. If it wasn't for those things, Raptors would not seem fast. The problem we have is there is a driveability gap between a more gentle take off and a wheelspinning sideways launch. The difference between ankle flex required to achieve one and ankle flex required to achieve the other is about 0.5°.
    • Yeah I think I'm also with the opposite here. It's 'hard to keep up with traffic' because in the real world I'm accelerating with 15% throttle and they are pinning it. It feels like I'm being an overt dickhead at anything above 15% throttle, so the car sounds like I'm being an overt dickhead to keep up with/get ahead of traffic when I'm really just trying to drive with traffic. There would be no issue 'keeping up with traffic' if we used the same level of throttle input/aggression to drive around. People really do just drive around with their foot nearly pinned in econoboxes.
