Haha did notice you guys and was trying to look back in the mirror to see what you guys were doing :P Also noticed the girls there, one wasn't half bad ;) Couldn't turn right on the street earlier as they were doing some surveying or the likes... what time did you guys finish? Think the truck was still there when I got home around 5:30pm?

Haha yeah, we've got Noone's doing traffic control for us, there were heaps of people tooting during the day (and its much of a relief having some good eye candy to look after traffic management for us haha)

We finished yesterday at 3:30 (Noone's backfilled the hole afterwards, so they mighta finished late). Back there again today, finished at 4:30 O.o

(as for what we're doing, undergrounding all the overhead mains over rail crossings :P prick of a job, but someones gotta do it haha)

That explains all that work.... work's work which is the main thing aye :) I wouldn't complain with those lollipop controllers :P

cheers mate, I wasn't on Hampstead road for long though, you must have sharp eyes ;)

U were just turning out of a side street...always have my eyes open for imports in the city, makes peak hour more enjoyable :)

Heh that'd be right. Turned out of one sidestreet, into the middle lane and then right turned into yet another sidestreet. Main roads SUCK during peak hour.

    • Yeah I've had too many issues with knock off's on the BMW's. I don't want to do a job twice or more because the parts are shit.
    • I read this and thought "ah! I will do this scissor jack on the tow point thing!" I just use my floor/low profile/costco jack and lift the car up by the tow hook itself, then slide jack stands under. Never thought about using scissor into floor jack combo :p
    • Well, my new WMI system took much longer to finalize. I actually missed my dyno appointment last Friday and lost my 150$ deposit. I'll be going back in the next week or two.  To sum it up. I only kept the AEM tank from my old setup. I replaced the AEM pump with a higher flow/pressure ProMeth 30GPH pump. I also swapped over to a 6AN low pressure feed line to the pump from the tank. There's also a pressure switch you cannot see on the pump high pressure line.    This is feeding 6x 200CC direct port nozzles and 1x 500CC Pre Throttle body nozzle. All fittings are Swagelok, because well why not. I also have a 300PSI pressure sensor up front.    I now have my Haltech ECU controlling everything. I start my pump with a basic relay at 5PSI and deadhead it. I then PWM a 3000CC methanol Injector to control flow starting around 10psi. The pressure switch in the trunk, along with my tank level are safeties before I ever get to 10PSI, and then I use my pressure sensor upfront as a secondary safety to cut the WMI and corrections in case the injector blocks or a line ruptures.  Wish me luck on the dyno!    
    • So, I'm back with bad news. There's no jack long enough on this planet that will reach the front subframe. If by some chance there is, it would weigh 200lb's.  I purchased a long reach jack... The damn thing weighted 120lb's and was massive. Didn't even come close, was still short at least a foot. It was a pain, but I brought it back. Next I decided HA! No problem, I'll get an Extra long reach jack. Well, I couldn't lift the box... It must have weighed 160LB's and luckily there was an open box in store. I took measurement and was still nowhere close.  Sadly I've lost hope and have accepted defeat. 
    • Thanks for that tip, niZmO_Man. I think the battery is OK. It's quite a new one, but I'll check. Last time I needed a new battery, everything electronic was fine, except that there wasn't enough current to turn over the starter. I decided to order one of the partial AV system translation CDs from Car Audio Workshop in NZ. That might have some effect, or help me diagnose the date problem. 🤞
