Boozing on an empty stomach = get hammered quick = the fun begins earlier!

hrm

reminds me of when i went to moonta. was up to fix some computer issues at the local hospital so I figured I'd also spend a day fishing off the jetty, so I pitched a tent at the caravan park and went to do my work. by the time I'd finished, the only thing open was the bottleshop - no servos even... ended up buying half a dozen old crow premixed bourbon (8%) and proceeded to the jetty with my fishing rods...

after staggering back to the tent and passing out at some unknown time, I woke up in the morning and my intestines felt like i'd been drinking lava.... my mate who had joined me was in an equally bad state (old crows are rough as) so we packed up and headed down to the cafe next to the clock tower... ordered a big big feed of bacon, eggs and toast which really hit the spot

after getting in the car, my mate just couldnt hold on, and as we were turning out of the main street of moonta, he unwound the window and projectile vomited several metres - amazingly he didnt get any on the car... was a waste of a good breakfast tho

-D

bahahahahaa fail

hey SLED, dont take the new truck anywhere near the cold stuff. Forum member from Albury posted this on Thursday

200 Series Cruisers.

Today it dropped to -1 degrees and that was all a bit much for the 200 series cruisers at work. We have 4. All 4 of them would start then shut down. People thought diesel was too cold.

My TD42Ti Patrol and TDCi Focus started just fine as did the work Ford Rangers.

Then we rang the other work site. Same problem, and they refuel at a different place so it wasn't a bad batch of fuel.

Looks like they are scared of a little frost!!! Ha ha.

Rang Toyota. They had no idea. Said we might need Alpine blend! At -1!!! WTF!!! Local stations don't even supply Alpine!

I'm am happy with my old school TD42Ti!

im heaps good.

just ate 3 slices of shaved ham 4 days past its use by date.

thought it tasted a bit wrong.

meh, shot of bundy should fix it.

ahaah didnt u eat some out of date meat not long ago n spent the next day on the shitter??????

ahaahahah hope it happens again, so it teaches u a lesson.......... :P

Well, picking up another front bar to replace the 'hacked' front bar this morning. Its not too bad on the eyes ... but its a temp anyway for now. Tracy and I have a buyer for our house, so after settlement the 33 will get a decent kit. I'm happy for peeps to shot me pics of what they think looks noice ... keep in mind its a 4 door :P

We're thinking a suitable/subtle front bar (Aero type R or similar), type M skirts modded to fit, and pods for the rear.

How much diff is there between S1 and S2 kits?

Oh, and I got offered a swap with my current 19" Impuls for 18" Impuls, but have not heard back from person and can't recall who they were. Is it anyone here? :rofl:

    • 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.
