Went and saw this last night, I thought it was the best movie I've seen in ages. Audience loved it everyone was cheerin and clapping at the end and a part in the middle too. Gets into the action right at the start of the movie, no boring bits!

What else could ya want, cool robots, big guns, cute girls and some sick action.

Big 5 stars for me if you liked Transformers when you were a kid then go see it.. not childish or anything at all it was awesome!!

Yer wasnt bad it hought they did a good job by not really showing you "everything" (no full screen shots of robots walking about) which lets the audience use their imagination a bit. Not really what id expect from Bay at all. I did however crack up when all of a sudden the ac-130 appears out of nowhere in Qatar, us has like 12 of those, i think the chances of one being in the area would be minimal. yes im one of those technocrats.

all in all much better than i expected but dont think it deserved its M rating.

5/5 top movie, very good looking girl :) real funny as well. Apparently (according to the express) there were 39,000 attempts at hacking the Industrial Light and Magic which is the lucas owned company responsible for movie effects etc because fans didn't like Michael Bay...lol 39,000 :)

i saw transformers on sunday arvo and i havent watched the old transformers movie so i didnt really know what the story line was - but i really liked it.

i thought it had the perfect balance of cars and romance and comedy whilst still being about robots from out of space.

Seen a white R32 around ellenbrook with an Autobot sticker on the fuel lid.

Also a red S2000 with a few autobot stickers on it with the plates Transformer or something similar.....thats just going a bit too far

was a good flick, hope they make a 2nd.

they stuck to some of the historical story and added some license. Also like how they linked some of the stuff in.

ie bumble bee parking next to a yellow VW, plus he had a bumble bee air freshener.

effacts were awesome (but thats what you expect from lucas arts)

ahh but the idea is to go into it seeing it for what it is not for the brilliance of the original that they can never better

personally by moving away from the original plots they made it easier to watch as a stand alone feature tho if you looked closely there were plenty of references back to the cartoon series

    • My guesstimate, with no real numbers to back it up, is it won't effect it greatly at all.its not a huge change in position, and I can't see the air flow changing from in turbulence that much based on distance, and what's in front of it. Johnny and Brad may have some more numbers to share from experience though.
    • Which solenoid? Why was it changed? Again, why was this done? ...well, these wear..but ultimately, why was it changed? Did you reset the idle voltage level after fitment? I'm just a tad confused ~ the flash code doesn't allude to these items being faulty, so in my mind the only reason to change these things, would be some drive-ability issue....and if that's the case, what was the problem? Those questions aside, check if the dropping resistor is OK ...should be 11~14 ohms (TCU doesn't throw a flash code for this) ~ also, these TCU designs have full time power (to keep fault code RAM alive), and I think that'll throw a logic code (as opposed to the 10 hardware codes), if that power is missing (or the ram has gone bad in the TCU, which you can check..but that's another story here perhaps).
    • Question for people who "know stuff" I am looking at doing the new intake like the one in the picture (the pictured is designed for the OEM TB and intake plenum), this design has the filter behind the front bar, but, the filter sits where the OEM duct heads into the front bar, and the standard aperture when the OEM ducting is removed allows the filter to pulled back out of the front bar into the engine bay for servicing, a simple blanking plate is used to seal the aperture behind the filter This will require a 45° silicone hose from the TB, like the alloy pipe that is currently there, to another 45° silicone hose to get a straight run to the aperture in the front bar Question: how will it effect the tune if I move the MAF about 100-150mm forward, the red is around where my MAF is currently, and the green would be where it would end up Like this This is the hole the filter goes through  Ends up like this LOL..Cheers    
    • Despite the level up question, actually I do know what that is....it is a pressure sender wire.  So check out around the oil filter for an oil pressure sender, or maybe fuel pressure near the filter or on the engine. Possibly but less likely coolant pressure sensor because they tend to be combined temp/pressure senders if you have one. Could also be brake pressure (in a brake line somewhere pre ABS) but maybe I'm the only one that has that on a skyline.
    • Pull codes via the self-diagnosis procedure. As far as I can tell this is just a sign of transmission issues but not a code unto itself.
