Bah the server is huge no doubt, 9 pages won't kill it.

So why is there 1028 pages of wasteland, and the old crap no one reads hasn't been deleted?

and yet people kick up a fuss about 9 pages that get removed anyways..

lol

/end rant

Yes the server is huge, but Christian rents it from a hosting company - and they charge by the megabyte - which is why you now see ads at the top of the page. Wasteland is fine, its what its there for.

And as for it being 'only 9 pages' - thats 9 pages of bullshit the mods have to sort thru, and its not a once off - this is happening often. The mods have better things to do than to lock threads, and when you guys do nothing but spam the shit out of a thread, they are compelled to look thru it to see what is said.... what does warrant 9 pages of bullshit?

+1's are sometimes useful to indicate agreement, but IBTL should be a 1 week holiday. Serves no purpose that to whore someones post count up. Its bad enough when you log on to SAU and someone has his name as the most recent poster in no less than the last 10 threads. Its hard enough to find relevant information in the search engine without the bullcrap wasting your time.

Idiots can't read rules again... the rest of you, was there really a need to whore up this thread. Leave it be, report it and let mods take care of it, was there really a need for 9 pages of rubbish?

you know what, I'm seriously pissed that I had to go through 9 pages of crap because a newbie didn't know any better & regulars who should know better, couldn't help themselves.

I'm tempted to go thru that thread again and pick out the names of all the regulars and give you all a holiday but instead I'll give you all a warning cause this place would be very quiet for a couple of weeks otherwise.

Next time a stupid thread gets spammed with "IBTL" expect a holiday (no matter who you are) and an increase in the warning percentage.......feel free to give the newbie that starts a thread like that some direction or let us handle it, but there's no need for anymore than a couple of posts on top of the first.

I did have a life earlier today other than SAU, but have now wasted an hour doing this all for 1 lousy thread!!

My thoughts exactly Pete, actually spoke to Andrew today about this too briefly and he is in agreeance also. I know we sound like hard asses for this but we like to enjoy SAU too instead of scrolling through thread after thread of rubbish like IBTL

on a unrelated topic, pete, your old beast was at my work today, one of the guys went outside for lunch and was in the carpark with luke getting in it. Apparently he gave it a little on the way out lol. Still looking tuff he said.

We're nothing compared to the interstate guys with 10,000+ posts!

Every forum will be whored... so why start up a forum and think "I hope no one posts over 1,000 posts... otherwise I'll have to buy another cluster"

have you ever search what some of them say its not all banter a lot of people with high post counts actually do contribute

yeah not wrong, but funnily enough i started researching rebuilds like 4-5 days ago knowing one day i may need one just wasn't thinking it would be this soon

damn that sux to hear Steve,

were u boosting it when it happened??

no wasn't boosting it started on my way home from work thursday i just thought it was my front bar flapping

then this morning heard it louder and thought it was my clutch fan, till i got to work and with Luke help we diagnosed it was a bearing

Na James limiter bash played no part in bearings going

no Idea how many Km's on the motor it was out of a stagea but ive had the car since 123k and just clocked over 200k and thats 80k hard serviced properly but driven hard not hardly driven

will look into all building options so i bought a daily and will start saving and purchasing parts as needed for a forged bottom end and maybe even a 25/30

    • Even more fun, leave all the ADAS stuff plugged in, but in different locations, hopefully avoid any codes!   And honestly, all these new cars with their weird electronics. Pull all the electronics out Duncan, and just shove an aftermarket ECU and if needed a trans controller in, along with a PDM. Make it run basic but race car styled!
    • To follow up a question from earlier too since I had the front bar off again (fking!) This is what is between the bumper and the drivers side wheel And this is the navigator side, only one thing but its a biggy! So basically....no putting coolers in the wheel arches without a lot of moving other stuff. Assuming I move to properly race prepping this car I'll take that job on and see how the computers respond to removing a whole bunch of ADAS modules
    • So I prepped the car for another track day on Wednesday (will be interesting to see coolant temps post flushing out and the larger reservoir, with a forecast of 3-14 being 20o cooler than last time I took it out). Couple of things to mention; since I am just driving the car and not taking a support vehicle, I took the rear seats out and just loaded the back up Team Trackday style. Look at all that space! To cover off removing the rear seat....it is weird (note the hybrid is probably different because it wouldn't have folding rear seats) Basically, you remove the lower seat base, very similar to a r series but it is a clip that pulls forward to release the base rather than it being bolted down. Easy Then, you need to remove the side section of the rear seat on each side. There is a 14mm head nut at the bottom of the side piece, the it slides upwards off a hook at the top to release; you also need to unhook the seatbelt from the loop at the top. Then the centre piece is weird. You need to release/fold the seats forward with the tab in the boot on each side From there, there are 2,x12mm headed bolts holding the rear of each seat to the folding bracket, under the trim between the rear seat and the boot (4x christmas tree clips there, they suck). The seat is out but you can see where the bolts attach to the bracket
    • As discussed in the previous post, the bushes in the 110 needed replacing. I took this opportunity to replace the castor bushes, the front lower control arm, lower the car and get the alignment dialled in with new tyres. I took it down to Alignment Motorsports on the GC to get this work done and also get more out of the Shockworks as I felt like I wasn't getting the full use out of them.  To cut a very long story short, it ended up being the case the passenger side castor arm wouldn't accept the brand new bush as the sleeve had worn badly enough to the point you could push the new bush in by hand and completely through. Trying a pair of TRD bushes didn't fix the issue either (I had originally gone with Hardrace bushes). We needed to urgently source another castor arm, and thankfully this was sourced and the guys at the shop worked on my car until 7pm on a Saturday to get everything done. The car rides a lot nicer now with the suspension dialled in properly. Lowered the car a little as well to suit the lower profile front tyres, and just bring the car down generally. Eternally thankful for the guys down at the shop to get the car sorted, we both pulled big favours from our contacts to get it done on the Saturday.  Also plugged in the new Stedi foglights into the S15, and even from a quick test in the garage I'm keen to see how they look out on the road. I had some concerns about the length of the LED body and whether it'd fit in the foglight housing but it's fine.  I've got a small window coming up next month where I'll likely get a little paint work done on the 110 to remove the rear wing, add a boot wing and roof wing, get the side skirt fixed up and colour match the little panel on the tail lights so that I can install some badges that I've kept in storage. I'm also tempted to put in a new pair of headlights on the 110.  Until then, here's some more pictures from Easter this year. 
    • I would put a fuel pressure gauge between the filter and the fuel rail, see if it's maintaining good fuel pressure at idle going up to the point when it stalls. Do you see any strange behavior in commanded fuel leading up to the point when it stalls? You might have to start going through the service manual and doing a long list of sensor tests if it's not the fuel system for whatever reason.
