Melbourne .. Shitload of weird words..

What do you call a street directory?

Why cant you call a schooner a schooner? FREAKS I JUST WANT A BEER! A BIG ONE!!

BUT!

So clean... Even ur junkie area is nice!

Its like living in the country but in a city .. Ur parks suck (I went for future music) and everyone drinks and drives (generalisation from what I found)

Sydney is shit house dirty but clubs pubs and everything are alot better.. Chiqs are way better down side is fully sik ulehs but sydney seems to have a better police officer in comparison to melb from what ive seen.

But Sydney wins .. its just the bomb .. melb can be boring .. good for a weekend away to get smashed but bout it

i was in melb last week, from thursday to sat, and it was my first time.

the roads are much wider, and the cars just flow, no traffic.

very friendly people, nice girls.

the greek area in the city lol :D

good shopping

free tram rides are cool

but im so used to sydney, the traffic, the rage on the roads, beaches, sydney city night life :P

Lived in both.... Melb is nicer place and a better place to live in general.

People are more friendly, atmosphere more relaxed, weather sucks but hey. The place is more organised, traffic is better.

Will end up back in Sydney soon; theres certainly alot more of Sydney I'd like to avoid when I'm back there.

I love Melbourne. Its just a more laid back place.

The only things I don't like about Melbourne are:

1. The wind

2. The cold

3. The road enforcement (no signs for fixed speed cameras, heavy handed police, small margins of error)

Aside from that, the city is tops.

I know you pretty well Liz, you dont exagerate, and you have an uncanny talent for guessing the temperature... so im guessing that actual windchill temp was within 1 or 2 degrees of what you said... which is fairly cold... im not living in a place that has a temp of about 10 million below absolute zero!

he's talking about the city circle tourist trams.. the brown ones that go around the edges of the CBD.. which are free.

me? exaggerate? NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO.

fark it was cold there yesterday!

8degrees when i got off the plane yesterday.... IN THE SUN!

the wind chill must have been -10000000000000000000 degrees

That was the first seriously cold day we have had all year. No joke :thumbsup:

Even i was cold and i don't normally notice it

Ya should've let the Vic people know you were here!

There is a good number of us that work CBD style :sorcerer:

But then... your a traitor... :cool:

well it was bloody freezing.. i had gloves, a scarf, 2 tops under my shirt, a cardigan AND a winter coat on.. and I was still cold!

I was only down there for the day :)

next time I'll come out for a few cleansing ales!

the weather is one thing I love about melbourne. gives me a chance to wear some of the many, many jackets I have in the closet that can only be worn for about 1 week a year in sydney.

I like melbs. I like sydney too. I could happily live in either.

Both are crappy Mexicans to the superior Brisbane.

1 hour from surfers

1 hour from sunshine coast.

all roads are new.

all roads are wide.

plenty of hills

circuits.

easy going cops.

easy laws on modifications.

low "uleh" factor.

wimmins.. come on... tanned/blonde/blue is what aus is about and this is where they are made..

clubs.. I'm sure there are some.. not my scene.

pubs/bars/latte sipping fairy places a plenty.

    • I guess one thing that might be wrong is the manifold pressure.  It is a constant -5.9 and never moves even under 100% throttle and load.  I would expect it to atleast go to 0 correct?  It's doing this with the OEM MAP as well as the ECU vacuum sensor. When trying to tune the base map under load the crosshairs only climb vertically with RPM, but always in the -5.9 column.
    • AHHHH gotchaa, I'll do that once I am home again. I tried doing the harness with the multimeter but it seems the car needed a jump, there was no power when it was in the "ON" position. Not sure if I should use car battery jump starter or if its because the stuff that has been disconnect the car just does send power.
    • As far as I can tell I have everything properly set in the Haltech software for engine size, injector data, all sensors seem to be reporting proper numbers.  If I change any injector details it doesnt run right.    Changing the base map is having the biggest change in response, im not sure how people are saying it doesnt really matter.  I'm guessing under normal conditions the ECU is able to self adjust and keep everything smooth.   Right now my best performance is happening by lowering the base map just enough to where the ECU us doing short term cut of about 45% to reach the target Lambda of 14.7.  That way when I start putting load on it still has high enough fuel map to not be so lean.  After 2500 rpm I raised the base map to what would be really rich at no load, but still helps with the lean spots on load.  I figure I don't have much reason to be above 2500rpm with no load.  When watching other videos it seems their target is reached much faster than mine.  Mine takes forever to adjust and reach the target. My next few days will be spent making sure timing is good, it was running fine before doing the ECU and DBW swap, but want to verify.  I'll also probably swap in the new injectors I bought as well as a walbro 255 pump.  
    • It would be different if the sealant hadn't started to peel up with gaps in the glue about ~6cm and bigger in some areas. I would much prefer not having to do the work take them off the car . However, the filler the owner put in the roof rack mount cavities has shrunk and begun to crack on the rail delete panels. I cant trust that to hold off moisture ingress especially where I live. Not only that but I have faded paint on as well as on either side of these panels, so they would need to come off to give the roofline a proper respray. My goal is to get in there and put a healthy amount of epoxy instead of panel filler/bog and potentially skin with carbon fiber. I have 2 spare rolls from an old motorcycle fairing project from a few years back and I think it'd be a nice touch on a black stag.  I've seen some threads where people replace their roof rack delete with a welded in sheet metal part. But has anyone re-worked the roof rails themselves? It seems like there is a lot of volume there to add in some threads and maybe a keyway for a quick(er) release roof rack system. Not afraid to mill something out if I have to. It would be cool to have a cross bar only setup. That way I can keep the sleek roofline that would accept a couple bolts to gain back that extra utility  3D print some snazzy covers to hide the threaded section to be thorough and keep things covered when not using the rack. 
    • Probably not. A workshop grade scantool is my go to for proper Consult interrogation. Any workshop grade tool should do it. Just go to a workshop.
