A while ago I found the words "f**k You" engraved on the rear quarter of my car.

Not sure if it was little kids or some gutless wonder with a chip up his arse.

Luckily that side of the car was getting sprayed for some minor damage already.

some people are odd.

Theres a family of deevo's (deviants) that live up the street somewhere.. and they may not have even reached puberty, but I'm pretty adament that they're capable of causing damage to not only public/private property, but also to others who "stand in their way". (except me.. coz I'm massive. :happy: )

I reckon we could see this family in a future episode of A Current Affair. Fortunately they only cause a ruckus around their side of the tracks and havent wondered about the corner to discover new turf to literally feed off. If they do, the garage will be fought for between my old man and I, until one of us can be bothered to clean out the other half of it.

Now I know it's not their fault that they're like the way they are, well maybe it is, but unfortuantely some of the parents don't care either.. so they're not the best role models. And it isn't just happening just here up my street, but is always something thats gonna be around.

I see scum junkies at the city interchange and I imagine to myself that 10 odd years ago they had a family who may have had a bright outlook on life.. but the kid/family took a turn for the worst and now they're off the rails..

But getting back to the orignal topic.. yeah.. I hate when people scratch cars. :glare:

Good to see that I am not the only pretentious person about. My Mrs and some of my mates think I should lighten up, but everything posted here just shows that I am not crazy!!

My latest gripe is with hero/arrogant drivers. The ones who do 120 in a 100 zone, then drop to 80 as soon as there is a hint of a hill or curve. I went to the coast on the weekend and was slowed down so much by these sort of people.

Of course when there was a safe opportunity to overtake I did without any fuss; but these people really cheese me off when they try and keep up in a straight line and quickly dissapear once I have gone through a couple of corners.

I can really understand (but not condone) why some people do stupid stuff in these situations just to get past these heros.

i hate people who get in the right lane and sit at the same speed as the person in the left.

i had some tool do it to me on the monaro near rose cottage, today around 5.30pm. was going towards calwell up the hill as it hits 100 and a guy in a ute was right behind someone in the left lane, i was coming up fast and the ute suddenly went into the right and sat there next to the other car, there was no one infront of him and he couldve over taken but he just sat there. he then went back behind the car after 2 mins, wtf? what a c**t, does it just to piss me off. i stared him down good :)

AMEN to both. They are my pet hates.

I get the same thing for being sinical because people like us know the truths of the world instead of living in denial about the world being a happy place and everyone should get a long. IT WONT EVER HAPPEN!!

And thats my rant finished.

I've spent this entire day so far fixing up this f**king guideline document that this retard wrote, our publishers have sent it back from production because it's absolutely riddled with formatting errors and inconsistencies. The guy that wrote it is supposedly some brilliant fire engineer that is worth his weight in gold, hence why they pay him 100 grand a year.

So anyway he writes this thing up, gets leg humped by all the other halfwits for doing such a good job. It goes through a "full QA", which involves going through all 5 managers here, the deputy general manager, and a committee of about 20 people for checking. Then it goes to the publishers for print who actually looked at the thing and saw how horrible it actually is. They even did the good thing and sent it back even though they didn't have to and told us what they picked up was wrong.

Guess who's got to fix this thing?

Not him.

He doesn't know how. He wrote the whole document and yet can't fix the style guide that he supposedly made for it (and assf**ked I might add).

He can't even get the page numbering right. Or the consistency between the left and right pages.

Page 5 typically comes after page 4, not page 3. Page 4 seems to have been on leave in this document. Page 22 must have been in a meeting. There are chapter names in the headings that are actually the chapter names from, oh, about 50 pages ago.

I seriously cannot wait to be an EL2. I'll get paid 100k a year to have an IQ of 300. I say 300 because most of them seem to have 300psi of compressed air in their head. And nothing else. It also seems to be rather warm air too. There certainly isn't any fuel in the mixture. I'm not even going to waste my time to check if there's spark.

No offence to anyone on here that might be a government EL2, I'm sure there are those that deserve to be doing that well. But these guys here sometimes really blow me away with how braindead they can be.

End whinge.

You know what really grinds my gears?

People in woolies/coles that think because they have a basket it entitles them to use the "express checkout" No it doesnt, i remembwe the day of the 8 item or less checkout, nice and fast, great if your just popping in to get milk and bread etc. BUT NOT ANYMORE, people have gone too far once again, the fact that your entire weeks groceries may happen to fit in a basket does not entitle you to the express checkout! use the aisle with grandma and her shopping trolley, people who just want one or two things have to wait, and wait and wait for these people to pull out there whole goddam weeks crap in the EXPRESS aisle... its not express when you have 30+ goddam things TARDS!!!!

My EL2 is hot.. I perve on her all day. I think it's the whole power thing. I wouldn't mind working directly below her. *high 5!* (scrubs)

I hate missing out on sleep.

I hate having to do a bog in a public toilet.

How's that for relevance???

I'm picky about my public toilet craps. I'd walk up to the 7th floor of our building to get a nice cubicle with no one in it.

I usually head to David Jones toilet's when I'm in Woden. Splendid! If you watch the sales assistants as you head towards the toilets, you can see them glaring at you, coz they know what you're here for.. OHH YEAH!

You know what really grinds my gears?

Protein shakes. No matter how much "research" they put into it, they still manage to taste like poo.

Soo much toilet talk here!

      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

      It was picked up on the MOT/Inspection that the offside front wheel bearing had excessive play along with the ball joint. It made sense to do both sides so I sourced a pair of spare IS200 hubs to do the swap. Unfortunately I don't have any photos of the strip down but here's a quick run down. On the back of the hub is a large circular dust cover, using a flat head screw driver and a mallet I prised it off. Underneath will reveal a 32mm hub nut (impact gun recommended). With the hub nut removed the ABS ring can be removed (I ended up using a magnetic pick up tool to help). Next up is to remove the stub axle, this was a little trickier due to limited tools. I tried a 3 leg puller but the gap between the hub and stub axle wasn't enough for the legs to get in and under. Next option was a lump hammer and someone pulling the stub axle at the same time. After a few heavy hits it released. The lower bearing race had seized itself onto the stub axle, which was fine because I was replacing them anyway. With the upper bearing race removed and the grease cleaned off they looked like this The left one looked pristine inside but gave us the most trouble. The right one had some surface rust but came apart in a single hit, figure that out?! I got a local garage to press the new wheel bearings in, reassemble was the opposite and didn't take long at all. Removing the hub itself was simple. Starting with removing the brake caliper, 2x 14mm bolts for the caliper slider and 2x 19mm? for the carrier > hub bolts. I used a cable tie to secure the caliper to the upper arm so it was out of the way, there's a 10mm bolt securing the ABS sensor on. With the brake disc removed from the hub next are the three castle nuts for the upper and lower ball joints and track rod end. Two of these had their own R clip and one split pin. A few hits with the hammer and they're released (I left the castle nuts on by a couple of turns), the track rod ends gave me the most grief and I may have nipped the boots (oops). Fitting is the reversal and is very quick and easy to do. The lower ball joints are held onto the hub by 2x 17mm bolts. The castle nut did increase in socket size to 22mm from memory (this may vary from supplier) The two front tyres weren't in great condition, so I had those replaced with some budget tyres for the time being. I'll be replacing the wheels and tyres in the future, this was to get me on the road without the worry of the police hassling me.

      RB25DE NEO with Haltech ECU

      By Haggerty · Posted

      Yep, the closest base tune available was for the GTT, I went with that and made all the logical changes I could find to convert it to Naturally Aspirated. It will rev fine in Neutral to redline but it will be cutting nearly 50% fuel the whole way.  If I let it tune the fuel map to start with that much less fuel it wont run right and has a hard time applying corrections.  These 50% cuts are with a fuel map already about half of what the GTT tune had.  I was having a whole lot of bogging when applying any throttle but seem to have fixed that for no load situations with very aggressive transient throttle settings. I made the corrections to my injectors with data I found for them online, FBCJC100 flowing 306cc.  I'll have to look to see if I can find the Cam section. I have the Bosch 4.9 from Haltech. My manifold pressure when watching it live is always in -5.9 psi/inHg

      Leak from Tokico BM50 Brake Master Cylinder

      By brillo · Posted

      Hi My Tokico BM50 Brake master cylinder has a leak from the hole between the two outlets (M10x1) for brake pipes, I have attached a photo. Can anyone tell me what that hole is and what has failed to allow brake fluid to escape from it, I have looked on line and asked questions on UK forums but can not find the answer, if anyone can enlighten me I would be most grateful.

      Cas issue

      It will be a software setting. I don't believe many on here ever used AEM. And they're now a discontinued product,that's really hard to find any easy answers on. If it were Link or Haltech, someone would be able to just send you a ECU file though.
