yeah that sucks roo.... i have zero tollerence for stuff like that, my anger managment issues will get me into trouble one day!

He's the same f*ckhead I reported to the cops some weeks ago. First time I've encountered him going in the southerly direction ... normally its coming home. He sees me and always wants to race or just get in front of me ... like its life or death. Wanker!

Obviously, he suspects I'm the one who dobbed him in to the cops and he went out of his way to get in my way this morning. :) Clearly, he's too much of a coward to get out of the car.

He's so stupid he hasn't worked out that I'm trying to avoid him ... I have no interest in "racing" him ... and I want that moron off the road before he wipes me out.

I posted up his rego plate before, but can't recall it or be arsed looking for it. But I think its something like AA 235 X ... dark blue Falcon

EDIT: plate number is AA235X ... and he's a real wanker!

Hmmm still getting that weird tinny rattling sound coming from the dupm pipe/turbo area.

It's still boosting to full (15psi) and still revs out to redline, and drives like normal otherwise, but it almost sounds like there bits of metal rattling around in the bottom of the front pipe on idle.

Sorta sounds like it may have done a gasket :)

Had an interesting time at Villis lastnight!

Just about to finish my parmy when 3 cop cars full of police rock up. My first thought was "here we go". They all stroll in, must of been off-duty as none had their guns on them. They get their food all sit down, two older cops walk outside to their cars. I'm in my SAU hoodie and as I look over to them, atleast two of the younger cops were just eye-balling me hard. As I walk out, they were all still seated eating but as I'm walking through the car park the two cops outside pretty much stop talking and just look over to me so I waited until I had passed them to unlock my car. I get to my car and turn around and the rest of them, like 9 or 10 cops come walking out of Villis just staring at me. I gingerly reverse back, slowly roll out of there and check my mirrors and their all just standing there, staring at me.

As soon as I hit South Rd I just high tailed my shit outta there n went home.

I think I'm getting paranoid or something! :)

Stop reading Stephen King novels :laugh:

Oi Damo, I just noticed your stereo doesn't work because your antenna doesn't connect to your unit. I have an adaptor lead thats never been used before. You can have it if you need it mate, I'm not gonna use it? shoot me a PM

Just got informed from my mate's GF who I've been coaching/training for tournaments, that she's pulling out of the National Titles in December. She's done so well to snatch first placings in the last two State tournaments (under my training) and was a favourite for the Aussie Title. Bit disappointing her decision, but I can't say I blame her. I'd be a hypocrite, seeing as I did the same thing some years ago.

Just like me, she's had a gutful of the bullshit rules, poor refereeing and political BS surrounding the tournaments. SA has a weak platform and nothing has changed in the 6-7 years when I walked away. Anyways, I've invited her to my school and that way she can compete in some (tougher) contact tournaments. Pressure will be on me now :P JKA/AKF tournaments are tougher ... but she's got bigger balls than most guys I know. She'll tough it out. Hope she enjoys regular medical bills :laugh:

SA doesn't just have a weak structure for car clubs ... we also have weak sporting federations, at least the ones I've been involved with anyway :P

NAS = fail ;)

JKA = win :ninja:

    • From there, it is really just test and assemble. Plug the adapter cables from the unit into the back of the screen, then the other side to the car harness. Don't forget all the other plugs too! Run the cables behind the unit and screw it back into place (4 screws) and you should now have 3 cables to run from the top screen to the android unit. I ran them along the DS of the other AV units in the gap between their backets and the console, and used some corrugated tubing on the sharp edges of the bracket so the wires were safe. Plug the centre console and lower screen in temporarily and turn the car to ACC, the AV should fire up as normal. Hold the back button for 3 sec and Android should appear on the top screen. You need to set the input to Aux for audio (more on that later). I put the unit under the AC duct in the centre console, with the wifi antenna on top of the AC duct near the shifter, the bluetooth antenna on the AC duct under the centre console The GPS unit on top of the DS to AC duct; they all seem to work OK there are are out of the way. Neat cable routing is a pain. For the drive recorder I mounted it near the rear view mirror and run the cable in the headlining, across the a pillar and then down the inside of the a pillar seal to the DS lower dash. From there it goes across and to one USB input for the unit. The second USB input is attached to the ECUtec OBD dongle and the 3rd goes to the USB bulkhead connected I added in the centre console. This is how the centre console looks "tidied" up Note I didn't install the provided speaker, didn't use the 2.5mm IPod in line or the piggyback loom for the Ipod or change any DIP switches; they seem to only be required if you need to use the Ipod input rather than the AUX input. That's it, install done, I'll follow up with a separate post on how the unit works, but in summary it retains all factory functions and inputs (so I still use my phone to the car for calls), reverse still works like factory etc.
    • Place the new daughterboard in the case and mount it using the 3 small black rivets provided, and reconnect the 3 factory ribbon cables to the new board Then, use the 3 piggyback cables from the daughterboard into the factory board on top (there are stand offs in the case to keep them apart. and remember to reconnect the antenna and rear cover fan wires. 1 screw to hold the motherboard in place. Before closing the case, make a hole in the sticker covering a hole in the case and run the cable for the android unit into the plug there. The video forgot this step, so did I, so will you probably. Then redo the 4 screws on back, 2 each top and bottom, 3 each side and put the 2 brackets back on.....all ready to go and not that tricky really.      
    • Onto the android unit. You need to remove the top screen because there is a daughterboard to put inside the case. Each side vent pops out from clips; start at the bottom and carefully remove upwards (use a trim remover tool to avoid breaking anything). Then the lower screen and controls come out, 4 screws, a couple of clips (including 3 flimsy ones at the top) and 3 plugs on the rear. Then the upper screen, 4 screws and a bunch of plugs and she is out. From there, remove the mounting brackets (2 screws each), 4 screws on the rear, 2 screws top and bottom and 3 screws holding in the small plates on each side. When you remove the back cover (tight fit), watch out for the power cable for the fan, I removed it so I could put the back aside. The mainboard is held in by 1 screw in the middle, 1 aerial at the top and 3 ribbon cables. If you've ever done any laptop stuff the ribbon cables are OK to work with, just pop up the retainer and they slide out. If you are not familiar just grab a 12 year old from an iphone factory, they will know how it works The case should now look like this:
    • Switching the console was tricky. First there were 6 screws to remove, and also the little adapter loom and its screws had to come out. Also don't forget to remove the 2 screws holding the central locking receiver. Then there are 4 clips on either side....these were very tight in this case and needed careful persuading with a long flat screw driver....some force required but not enough to break them...this was probably the fiddliest part of the whole job. In my case I needed both the wiring loom and the central locking receiver module to swap across to the new one. That was it for the console, so "assembly is the reverse of disassembly"
    • But first....while I was there, I also swapped across the centre console box for the other style where the AV inputs don't intrude into the (very limited !) space.  Part# was 96926-4GA0A, 284H3-4GA0B, 284H3-4GA0A. (I've already swapped the top 12v socket for a USB bulkhead in this pic, it fit the hole without modification:) Comparison of the 2: Basically to do the console you need to remove the DS and PS side console trim (they slide up and back, held in by clips only) Then remove the back half of the console top trim with the cupholders, pops up, all clips again but be careful at the front as it is pretty flimsy. Then slide the shifter boot down, remove the spring clip, loose it forever somewhere in the car the pull the shift knob off. Remove the tiny plastic piece on DS near "P" and use something thin and long (most screwdrivers won't fit) to push down the interlock and put the shifter down in D for space. There is one screw at the front, then the shifter surround and ashtray lift up. There are 3 or 4 plugs underneath and it is off. Next is the rear cover of the centre console; you need to open the console lid, pop off the trim covering the lid hinge and undo the 2rd screw from the driver's side (the rest all need to come out later so you can do them all now and remove the lid) Then the rear cover unclips (6 clips), start at the top with a trim tool pulling backwards. Once it is off there are 2 screws facing rearwards to remove (need a short phillips for these) and you are done with the rear of the console. There are 4 plugs at the A/V box to unclip Then there are 2 screws at the front of the console, and 2 clips (pull up and back) and the console will come out.
