shit happens and its happened to all of us. At least the motor is in top condish.

Andrew ill do another...:happy:

LOL just got a letter in the mail informing me I 'failed to vote' in some local election circa early September. They have a space on the back that lets me chuck in an excuse as to why I didn't rock up (to try and avoid the MASSIVE penalty of $20 :P)

Might put something in there like 'I was sleeping in and cbf' or 'I do not care for your political mumbo jumbo' or something stupid. They'll reject it and I'll have to pay the $20 but who cares, it'll waste a bit of their time :D

either that or I'll pay with a drawing of a spider :rofl:

hahahahah damn I should've looked in here before I wrote my smart arse letter, could've printed that out and done a snail mail version of the recent email joke :P

had an adventure in the rolla today :P

had another crack at fixing the fuel tank... seems to hold up, so i took her out for a cruise.

could still smell petrol, so was gonna pull off brighton road n suss it out, then the old girl stalled. we pushed her into a carpark and had a look......... the carby was leaking fuel from this shoddy rubber seal that was in the re-build kit straight onto the turbos exhaust housing :S

so glad it stalled or me and my mate would have had a ride in a fireball.

upgrade time!!! gonna get a webber in there, or maybe a carby from a camira :D:rofl:

got it towed to my mums place, and i saw thomasino drive past in his 180, i waved but got a blank stare lol

hey as some of you may know ive only got 1 head light at the moment due to some sort of wiring issue in my car.

anyone here got some skills and willing to help me out n take a look? i can cough up some $ or do a krusty burger exchange.

ive already checked its not the globe :P and ive changed the switch inside the dash which is known to be troublesome in 32s, so somewhere along the wiring line a rat has had a snak or something.

Just finished making up the actuator extension screw on bit that attaches to the flapper.

Bit of a bastard welding it then i got slag inside the thread few problems as per normal when working on cars. Now to take it for a spin. :)

Driving n/a with the flapper disconnected starts to get to you after a while. :)

    • I might just check it out.. A Q among all those skylines.. lol
    • Time will tell, they're doing all the admin stuff at the moment. I've submitted all the required details, photos, etc.   I was under the impression that DC coupling is the best approach, i.e.: Solar Array -> Battery Invertor -> Battery  Where as AC Coupling is simpler, however less efficient, i.e.: Solar Array -> Solar Invertor -> Battery Invertor -> Battery
    • The price is really great for that kind of capacity. I thought similar setups cost way more. How's your efficiency been with the DC-coupling? I've heard sometimes there can be a bit of a performance loss.
    • Long time no random post about shit. So I went down this deep deep rabbit hole of battery storage for the home, ended up locking in a 41.9kWh Fox ESS EQ4800 with 9 units stacked. Battery uses Lithium Iron Phosphate, similar to what you find in those deep cycle boat/caravan batteries. And yes, why did I go with a cheapie brand and not like Synergy? simply because I don't plan to stay at this house for more than another 3~5 years.  The entire install, DC coupling (removal of existing invertor, connecting the current 6.6kW array direct to the battery invertor), new 8kW invertor is $6K all up (after all the rebates etc.). Going with this lot: https://www.aussiesolarbatteries.com.au/ It did seem a bit too good to be true, however seems like the Whirlpool community has vetted it and when it comes to this kind of stuff, they seem to be all over it: https://forums.whirlpool.net.au/thread/9pxj8482?p=38   I've requested for the battery to be installed outside, next to my meter board and not inside - rather have it combust and ignite outside lol.    
    • In Vic it would be a defect regardless of whether or not you cut a hole in the sheetmetal for the return pipe. The rules in Vic are shitful, and are generally interpreted as you can "make 2 mods to the intake system". Putting an FFP and an FMI onto it will almost certainly be seen as some huge number of intake mods. You really need to speak to an engineer before doing this stuff in VIC.
