Just saw one of their ads in the latest issue of auto trader...they are having a "Tunnel" sale!

Quote " All stock must be liquidated, the Tunnel is coming!"

So I guess it does have something to do with the "tunnel"

Doesn't make any mention of relocation but.

yeah just saw on the news the project is on the verge of bankrupcy and its not owned by the government. westpac bank had 50 million invested, and some chinese rich dude had 100 million invested in the project lol. apparently they are only getting 1/3 of the 'projected' volume of cars to use the thing and they're not raising near enough money.

yes off topic but still interesting facts lol

mmmm... can't wait for a GTR or hot GTS-t to go through there with dropped pipes..... *hint hint, nudge nudge*

well, my old GTi-R had a straight through exhaust 3" and your ears would be in pain from the noise in the tunnel near the city, forgotten what street its on, but it was loud. and then the car backfired :D sounded like a artillery cannon going off. although it was funny watching people swerve coz they thought i was shooting them ;)

I'd pay $3 to avoid traffic congestion. Would cost more in fuel from the extra idling time, stop start traffic ,and lights

$3 either way to and from work, $6 a day maybe more if u have to go through other tolls. it could work out quite expensive, but then i guess u would just buy e toll wouldnt you.

I like tunnels. There alot of fun to flog it through

Dude, its a big tunnel, and you only got so many gears!

Im really unsure if Brisbaneites are ready for a big tunnel... I know some of the big european ones they have minium and maxium speed limits for the reason of safety. Sure they are way bigger, but I mean we cant even use indicators.

    • 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
