had a bit of a lol moment this morning;

went down to the local bp to fill up, saw a cop car sitting in one of the parking bays as soon as i pulled up, whatever, might get defected, but how f**kin sus would it look if i just rolled out as soon as i rolled in?

whatever.

took my time, filled up, checked my tyres, cleaned my windows, you know, same shit any other responsible motorist would do when theyre filling up. cop cars still there. hmm.

so i wander in and the first thing i hear from the attendant (shes talking to the cops) "... probably make the front page of the saturday paper driving a car like that."

i stop dead in my tracks, did she just say what i thought she just said? she wouldnt be comparing me to the magill road morons just because of the car i drive... would she?

so i ask that exact question, i phrase it nice and polite, not an accusation, and im met by her and the 2 cops with stunned silence, almost like some explorer would be if he stumbled upon a previously undiscovered tribe, like they werent expecting me to be able to speak english, after a few moments of that, the younger cop replies; "... yeah."

launch into a big spiel about judging books by their covers, about believing everything their spoon fed by the media, and how not all performance car owners are retards who think 150 in a residential is fine.

i left smiling, they continued to stand there, dumbstruck. it was awesome.

and on a sadder note, after 9 months of service, my parrot is no more, fell of somewhere on my travels today;

RIP. :banana:

Sorry to hear about your parrot but WELL DONE for putting them in their place respectfully!

How dare they judge like that. Not like its a surprise.... but still.

A small update:

As announced at the Dyno Day on Saturday 15th Aug, Skylines Australia - South Australian Chapter is officially CAMS Affiliated for those hanging out for it.

The Certificate of CAMS Affiliation was received in the mail yesterday, which I have in my grubby hands now :P

I am getting the new membership cards prepared this week for all members (current and new) tonight. Unfortunately, I am at TAFE nights on Wed/Thu nights and leaving Friday for Ballarat for 4 days. I'll see if another committee/club member can kindly meet/hand out the new cards in my absence.

Spread the word. I'm aware some potential members were holding out, waiting for this affiliation.

:banana:

      So, now all you need to do is connect the 2 or 3x 12v feeds into the unit to permanent 12v, ACC 12V and IGN 12V that you can find in the spot behind the stereo, and the earth, and then it will switch on with the car.

      My thought is if you were just moving it forward and the upstream geometry remained the same, then no difference at all. But because the current one has the filter direct into the AFM inlet, you effectively have the best chance of a completely symmetric air flow profile upstream, and in, the AFM, whilst the aftermarket inlet thingo has a (small, to be sure) bend between the filter and the AFM. That would bias the flow to the outside of the bend (downstream of the bend) which might well reduce the size of the signal seen by the AFM, for the same total flow rate. Having said that: If you're proposing to make your inlet look like a hybrid of your existing one and the aftermarket one, such that there is no bend where the filter is clamped on... then I say it will be just fine. If there is going to be such a bend, then, if you can align the insertion of the AFM blade such that it is at right angles to the plane of the bend, then there is a better than even chance that the centreline velocity where the blade is will remain more or less the same, and the velocity will just be a little faster to the outside of that, and just a little slower to the inside. **This is not professional investment advice and you should consult a suitably qualified ouija board, tea leaves or the intestines of a goat for more accurate prognostication.

      Blue/grey smoke after idle

      By pacman_1219 · Posted

      Hi Tao, Thanks for your reply.  It's been a while and I managed to get the valve stem seals replaced with the head on the car.  Unfortunately this didn't solve my issue, the car still smokes a lot after idling (to be honest during idle you can see a bit of blue smoke from the exhaust), same after deceleration. I will try disconnecting the valve cover breathers, do I leave the PCV valve in? By engine oil drain pipe, do you mean the turbo oil drain?

      What about if you just give it direct 12v and earth?
