I don't know how much you guys listen to Triple M's Spoonman at night but it was something I loved doing especially during late night drives. For all of you guys who don't know he was canceled on the 26th I doubt it will happen but I seriously hope he will come back or another station will pick him up

James I feel your pain.

I was listening on his final night.

I also liked listening to him on a long late night drive, telling off the idiots that call up and what not...

Hopefully he will be back on the air soon.

Ahhh good old Triple M.... and the target market of Triple M Listeners.... people with erectile dysfunction? :)

bah... call spoonman listeners what you want... he still was a top radio host...

you can go back to listening to MIX 101.1 :)

well they lost another listenr for ever now, i was a MMM listener for ages, then they dropped "the Cage" in the mornings... so didnt listen to the morning show, but went back for get this, then will and lemo and the spoonman... then goes get this... so they only had me for 2 shows, now that they have gone.... ill only listen to them for the footy... stupid MMM GRRRRRRRRRRRR

LOL - I'm the opposite. Hated the spoon man (wish he'd shut up and play some damn MUSIC for a change. Weird concept playing music on an FM station I know). And Will and Lemo never knew what the hell they were supposed to be talking about it seemed.

I for one am stoked they are all gone and hope they replace them with some decent people again. Bring back Crud I say. Maybe I'll actually go back to listening to MMM now that they are all gone because those guy seriously had me switched off.

Agreed.

But I suppose now that most people have ipods with massive amounts of the music they want to listen to, radio stations playing music has become redundant.

"Gotta get the ratings somehow... I know! Let's make comedians talk for extended periods to entertain the masses. Surely that will work!"

Rarely does that make a good show.

Don't know what Triplem are going to do now, but the replacement drive show with Fitzy from 4pm is rubbish, God only knows what they are ding in the evenings now.

Lucky my PA11-NIS is coming :)

cage gone, get this gone, spoonman gone, what point do i have to listen? havent been for 12months now, i listened to mmm for 19 years and now, gold or vega lol or get this podcasts!

100% on crud, bring them back!

I'm still pissed they axed 'Get This' from the afternoons more than a year ago
No shit!, havent listened to Triple M since.

I downloaded every "get this" podcast off the mmm website before they took it down so I could reminisce. If either of you guys want a copy let me know. I whack them on cd's every now and then for a long drive. Classic radio!

If you listen to the "long way home" Ed cavalie still uses jokes he developed with Tony M. Like the odd reference to Rex hunt, jeff fenech and upskirting at the tennis!

I agree, he sucked balls. It was oooo-k to listen to but if didn't agree with someone, BANG! - you're off the air and he drowns you out, too much opinion for my liking. Good riddance.

I use to listen to spoon man all the time when i was working at night, loved it when he use to tell ppl who had no idea to piss off.

Best show ever was when he had a topic that steve erwin was going to die sooner or later with all the animals he f**ked with (the show was on the day he died), had to stop the show early with all the death threats he was getting, he was right though.

    • 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.
    • I wanted to try and preserve the front bumper as long as possible, they're not cheap and are made to order in Japan. Taking inspiration from my previous K11 Micra build where I made an undertray for the Impul bumper, I did the same for this BN Sports bumper but a little slimmed down.  This time round I only made a 'skid plate' (if that's the correct wording/term) for just the bumper surface area, the Micra version covered the gap like an undertray. Starting off with a sheet of mild steel approx. 0.9mm thick 4ft x 2ft in size. I traced around the bumper, cut it out and cleaned the edges. Luckily I was able to get two halves from one piece of metal In the video I installed it as is, but I've since then I've removed it to spray and add a rubber edging trim. The rubber trim is suitable for 1-2mm and it's a really nice tight fit. The bolts had to be loosened due to the plates being too tight against the bumper, the trim wouldn't push on I used some stainless M6 flat headed bolts for a flusher finish (rather than hex heads poking down), I believe this style fastener is used for furniture too incase you struggle to source some. The corner's are a little wider, but this may be an advantage incase I get close to bumping it  The front grill got some attention, finally getting round to repairing it. Upon removal one fixing pulled itself out of the plastic frame, one side is M8 that fixes inside of the frame, where as the other side is M5. Not knowing I could get replacements, I cut down an M8 bolt, threaded it inside the frame along with a decent amount of JB Weld.  The mesh was replaced to match the bumper. One hole on the bonnet/hood had to be drilled out to 8mm to accommodate the new stud, once the glue had set it could be refitted. I think the reason the grill was double meshed was to hide the horn/bonnet latch (which makes sense) but I much prefer it matching the bumper Bumper refitted and it's looking much better IMO The Youtube video can be seen here: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=bVZP35io9MA
