GTR is one step closer :D

Well, 2 credits and a pass isnt spectacular, but I was expecting to

fail a subject, so since I didnt fail anything the GTR is one step

closer

hahaha. if i were your mommy or daddy i wouldnt buy you shit for

those marks. perhaps you should study harder son. oh, and i wish my

mommy and daddy would buy me a gtr. so i wouldnt have to work for one

like so many others.

now forgive me, but all i stated was opinion. IF i were his olds, those grades wouldnt deserve shit. i think he should have studied harder. two credits and a pass? does this kid have ADD? and the second part with the sarcasm. just shows my opinion about parents buying their kids expensive cars. and this isnt exclusive to him. if it were anyone else on the board, i'd let my feelings known about it.

i have no respect for that. first, he didnt work for it. second, he

didnt even work hard for it. wtf? i even know i guy who's parents

bought him a type R and i tell him all the time.

so, yep, again. i believe this banning to be unfair. especially the

way it went about (no discussion). i thought SAU allowed freedom of speech and opinion. well, if some people say "well done on those marks" (one opinion), why cant another say "those marks arent good"? (a different opinion)

if someone posts in a public forum, why censor the public?

you walk a fine line between expressing an alternate opinion and attacking people. As much fun as it is for you to express your opinion around here, its not so much fun to have to moderate and deal with the many complaints we get about you stepping on people's toes. Some of the moderators, eg: Prank & meggala simply don't want to waste their time, they'd rather just ban you and be over with it and maybe drill into your head that we don't appreciate what you do.

Stop offending people. Democracy and public availability are boons of society, but you unfortunately abuse your given rights, some of us prefer to advice n warn you, others would simply rather stop you from using it. The choice is yours, you have the option AGAIN, this time choose what you say and you won't be banned again.

i had a conversation with prank via PM where i was more or less assured this wouldnt happen again (banning without given a reason. without hearing from me).

first, that was hardly an attack. now wheteher or not i walk a fine line isnt the issue. if i dont sugar coat my opinions, thats not my problem. hell, that shouldnt even the mods' problem.

if someone posts in a PUBLIC forum, they should be aware that the public will read it, and be prepared if the public has something to say that said poster wont like and at the very least, be able to deal with it without having to cry to the mods.

again, i reiterate. PUBLIC FORUM.

sure it is a public forum but you have to remember one thing, that is, this forum is based on a community support that we are all friends here. For you to think that this is a freedom of speech well im sure there are forum rules that we ALL abit eg: swearing/dissing other members etc..etc.. For you to get banned, im sure you dont meet those criterias nor respected by fellow members.

my 2 cent

I'll say it one more time, YES IT IS. Your comments are responsible for the admins banning you. Not mine, not anyone else.

YES IT IS when people refer your posts (see the bit which says Report this post to a moderator at the bottom of every post?) to us to do something about.

You want another PUBLIC FORUM which will allow you to not "sugar coat" your posts, find another one there's plenty on offer. Learn to coexist or don't exist on these forums.

thank you for the input. never let it be said i was incapable of mature discussion.

this is a public forum, yes. But it is not based on a sense of commmunity or friendship. it is based on what most of us here have in common. the mighty line (and cars in genenral). the friendships built by those here, are just bi-product of discussions, assistance etc given via the board. so no, not everyone has to get along.

i have read through the forum rules. and perhaps, there have been times where i have bent or broken said rules. but believe you me, i havent done anything others dont do themselves. ie swearing, bagging each other etc. however, i am singled out because i am better at it. bullsh*t! (pardon my french).

the comments werent the reason for the banning. it was the reaction by those who couldnt handle it.

if something on the internet upsets someone that much, theres something is seriously wrong with them. thats not your fault. if i reported everything i didnt like to you, that wouldnt be your fault would it? it would be my own inablity to handle all those harsh things out there.

f*ck that man. just because some P plater or whoever cant turn the other cheek, doesnt mean that i have to go through all the trouble of re-registering just to post in forums i have been a regular at for some time. again, the board has no rules that says everyone has to get along.

you know what f**k it, I'll ban you myself... you just love to argue, I can't be f**ked dealing with you, meg n prank were onto something, explaining something to you would be a waste of time. I suggested giving you a period where you couldn't post, they rather jus ban you.

Next time you cause any trouble I'll see to it that you have to re-register, no more moderating your posts.

I've had 8 times as many referrals about your posts than any one else, as much as this is not my fault I can either spend time trying to appease 8 people on you behalf or I can jus deal with you. Your arrogance jus makes it impossible for me to do that, so f**k it, I'll be banning you next time more than 2 people refer your posts to me.

There's no rule that you should get along with other members coz its farken assumed that you'd have enough commonsense to get along with others, learn some social skills.

relax guy, put your feet up. now just because i post about scat porn and whatnot, are you surprised that i can carry out a discussion on board politics?

i dont like to argue. i merely rebut when something is said. if its a flame, i return the favour. if its a smart comment (such as the ones you've made so far), i try to do that to. believe me, i had no idea this was an "argument". i thought it was a discussion on board politics.

anyway, dont worry about that. keep your mind on the topic at hand. my unfair banning. meggala acted on his own. prank said i wouldnt be banned again without telling me why first, or hearing my side because of the last unfair banning.

yes, the first one was unfair because all i did was flame back to flames directed at me. i was banned because mine were bettter.

as for your ultimatum to personally ban me, you arent thinking like a mod man. you're forgetting something. i too, am a member of this board. as a mod, you have as much responsility to me as any other member.

now, im sorry you're the only mod up tonight and that you're stuck with dealing with me. i always liked you/your posts. so i'll let you go now if you want. but i will say this. if im banned again for no good reason, or just because two people have referred my posts to you, i will come back, and i wont come back so nice, and i wont be asking for an explanation or a mature discussion.

    • After my last update, I went ahead with cleaning and restoring the entire fuel system. This included removing the tank and cleaning it with the Beyond Balistics solution, power washing it multiple times, drying it thoroughly, rinsing with IPA, drying again with heat gun and compressed air. Also, cleaning out the lines, fuel rail, and replacing the fuel pump with an OEM-style one. During the cleaning process, I replaced several hoses - including the breather hose on the fuel tank, which turned out to be the cause of the earlier fuel leak. This is what the old fuel filter looked like: Fuel tank before cleaning: Dirty Fuel Tank.mp4   Fuel tank after cleaning (some staining remains): Clean Fuel Tank.mp4 Both the OEM 270cc and new DeatschWerks 550cc injectors were cleaned professionally by a shop. Before reassembling everything, I tested the fuel flow by running the pump output into a container at the fuel filter location - flow looked good. I then fitted the new fuel filter and reassembled the rest of the system. Fuel Flow Test.mp4 Test 1 - 550cc injectors Ran the new fuel pump with its supplied diagonal strainer (different from OEM’s flat strainer) and my 550cc injectors using the same resized-injector map I had successfully used before. At first, it idled roughly and stalled when I applied throttle. Checked the spark plugs and found that they were fouled with carbon (likely from the earlier overly rich running when the injectors were clogged). After cleaning the plugs, the car started fine. However, it would only idle for 30–60 seconds before stalling, and while driving it would feel like a “fuel cut” after a few seconds - though it wouldn’t fully stall. Test 2 – Strainer swap Suspecting the diagonal strainer might not be reaching the tank bottom, I swapped it for the original flat strainer and filled the tank with ~45L of fuel. The issue persisted exactly the same. Test 3 – OEM injectors To eliminate tuning variables, I reinstalled the OEM 270cc injectors and reverted to the original map. Cleaned the spark plugs again just in-case. The stalling and “fuel cut” still remained.   At this stage, I suspect an intermittent power or connection fault at the fuel pump hanger, caused during the cleaning process. This has led me to look into getting Frenchy’s fuel hanger and replacing the unit entirely. TL;DR: Cleaned and restored the fuel system (tank, lines, rail, pump). Tested 550cc injectors with the same resized-injector map as before, but the car stalls at idle and experiences what feels like “fuel cut” after a few seconds of driving. Swapped back to OEM injectors with original map to rule out tuning, but the issue persists. Now suspecting an intermittent power or connection fault at the fuel pump hanger, possibly cause by the cleaning process.  
    • For race cars, this is one part where I find having the roll cage bar having gone through a hole in the floor better than the build it up on a ledge inside... The Merc I help on, the main hoop ends are marked on the car, and the jack is marked... Jack goes under a few inches and lifts one whole side of the car up... Removes that fight for long slim jacks for race car duties!   My biggest issue for the daily drivers I work on, is my jacks don't go high enough. The jacks start out on a few blocks, jack it up, then start a second jack under it on more blocks, and then I can get an axle stand under it. My axle stands are presently in use, and are nearly fully extended. The car is sitting with barely more than a cm of clearance to get the wheel off the studs! Sarah's Kluger is the same, as it has an ungodly amount of droop available in the suspension and a distinct lack of good jacking points!
    • Happy? Yep, my to do list is getting shorter and shorter. Either this light approaching is the end of the tunnel, or I'm about to be hit by a train... Ha ha ha   Also, Duncan isn't that far out of town that you need to make a multi day drive out of it. 😛
