GUYS ! OMG heard from a mate around the area, there's this year 9 trouble maker WHOSE dad is a HOUSE PAINTER - thus the access to the putty/bog. BUT THE THING IS HOW THE FCUK am i meant to approach it, he's a young kid, thus i can just beat the **** out of him, and i"m not sure if its him. should i talk to his folks or just presume he did it and threaten the kid to pay??

BTW - please gimme some serious feedback. I'm not good with this whole confrontation issue.

Talk to the father when the kid is home. The father will confront the kid and he should be able to tell instantly if he is lying or not. Don't say you witnessed the vandalism yourself, but say that someone who did witness it told you. That way you don't have to lie about specifics, because you were just told what happened by someone else.

hey man... dont you watch CSI??? if youve kept got some of the crap off your car... have a friendly chat with this kids father and tell him wat happened. ask him if he has any putty/bog/filler around and if you can have some to compare with what was on your car. thats what id do. if he gets offended and pissed off... oh well, at least you tried.

i dunno man, you need to do something... wat happened to your car was so flucking wrong!

i'd tell them that your friend saw the kid do it .. the kid will fess up .. if hes a known trouble maker .. then his father won't be defending him i guess ... but be nice to the father i guess ... be understanding that hes got a trouble maker as a kid .. probably just wants attention ..

GaryD - i did go to the cops. and file a report. they wrote it i into a book etc. etc. I doubt they will do shit all, but i believe still notifying them was best. appearently if any kid got caught vandalising in the area. they will get penalise for the last 20 days of reported vandalism.

    • The final part arrived today to un-clampify and simplify the intake Who would have though a 1/2" hose stainless bulkhead fitting designed for below waterline bilge pumps would be what I needed Test fit on a 3" offcut I had laying around to see if it would work, and it worked a treat All going well the intake will be on its "final version" tomorrow 
    • Good luck on the weekend mate
    • Must have been an absolute nightmare to drive when the power steer was out, the rack ratio/wheel size/caster is all set up for power assistance
    • Welcome to SAU, what are you looking at buying?
    • I checked the injectors again (1 and 2, since they’re easiest to access) to make sure they weren’t clogged. Even though the entire fuel system had been cleaned, I wanted to be certain. Everything looked clean, so I reinstalled and connected everything. When I started the car to confirm everything was okay, it immediately revved up high, so I shut it off straight away. I checked to see if I’d missed a vacuum hose or something, but everything was connected. On the second attempt, the car ran without the high idle, but I noticed a distinct “compressed air” sound coming from the engine bay. Tracing the sound, I pushed injector #6 forward slightly and the noise stopped — it turned out it wasn’t seated properly, despite the fuel rail being bolted down. While holding it in place, the car idled steadily without stalling and ran for over 5 minutes. At this point, I pulled all six injectors out just in case I hadn’t seated them correctly or dirt had gotten onto the O-rings. Unfortunately, I discovered that I had damaged 3 out of 6 injectors (the OEM 270cc ones) during installation. So yes, this was my fault. Since only the pintle caps were damaged, I’ve ordered a Fuel Injector Service Kit from NZEFI to refurbish them. In the meantime, I reinstalled my new injectors – the car now idles fine for over 15 minutes without stalling. I have not attempted to drive it so far. It’s not perfect yet, as it hesitates when the throttle is pressed, but it’s a big improvement. Unplugging the IACV with the new injectors idles at around 800rpm, even with the IACV screw tightened fully. But this is probably due to tune.
