Was that the Tusan S which is goldy/purple...I had a chat with the dude who owned it once. Wicked car.

Nah was a black convertible.. Looked like a Cerbera. Very nice

Tis shit but its hardly the end of the world. We'll find a new place to chill no problems.

+1 I hear Jimboomba Red Rooster is the place to be..!!!

Can someone pm me the details of the new meeting spot when decided, so I can make up excuses why I'm not there?

Thanks.

:D

Morning all !!

Bummer about your meet being canned..

Wont be too hard to find another..

Moaning!!

F**K Jimboomba

Won't the ol' 31 make it out there and back :D

You wouldn't lol

It has more diseases than a prostitute in Kazakstan.

whats with the massive overreaction to the (lack of) skids last week at B & R? What cancel it on a normal week the police are not going to do anything because you guys do not break the law, and as for the secutiry guard what is he going to do? If you buy the icecram and sit there and eat it you arent doing anything wrong! Just seems a shame that a good thing got cancelled because of one less than ideal week.

I think the whole point was to have an event that didn't attract that mentality. I agree that the minority has spoilt it for the majority but who want's to risk going to a place with the elevated chance of getting a fine for some mod ? As well there might have been a gentleman's agreement in place which was tarnished by the ( lack of ) skids.

But then again I could be completly wrong.

they wont ever be coming back, very obviously wasnt thier scene, this week would have been back to normal, the police may have come past, seen nothing was going on and probably never come back

Well that might be the case, but if you and your friends were invited to a bbq at my place to which you came, vomited on the guests, set fire to my dog and tried to have your way with my wife.

Do you think you would be invited back again ?

You wouldn't lol

Miss Cox lives there though :(

OI! ;)

You can't catch what you already got :cheers:

Agreed, I was not expecting it to be cancelled and was hoping it would be back to normal with no f**ktards this week. But not my call. *shrugs*

The way thristan was posting in every thread in the QLD section for people to come, we were bound to get idiots eventually. I blame thristan!

:D jks tris <3

I wouldnt expect to be invited back....but i wouldnt expect you to stop having BBQs, which is my whole point

I dont mind either way because i wasnt a regular i just feel bad for you guys as it was a good thing and probably would have continued to be a good thing as last week was probably never going to happen again

Very true. We should still have them.

I agree with this. That was a one off thing that won't happen again any time soon. Half of them got lost on the way to BNR anyway and they would probably all prefer to go to WOW or Springwood maccas or some shit like that.

+1 for good logic. Cops will come they might come speak to us ask us whats going on etc, complaints last week. We do the whole Yes Sir, No Sir, three bags full Sir and they see that its a waste of time hassling us and it all goes back to normal.

I'm open to either solution move the meet if we must. I vote somewhere closer to Southside ;)

perhaps you guys could let it all settle for a week or two then bring it back low key! OR do what we have been doing for about 2 years and have a $10 steak at the broadway and go to stones corner baskin and robins after!

    • Yea that’s why I said ima test them with multimeter and see the reads.
    • Only at idle. Isn’t a problem when rev it seems.
    • @Haggerty This seems silly to ask, but are you confident in your ability to tune the Haltech?  
    • Next on the to-do list was an oil and filter change. Nothing exciting to add here except the oil filter is in a really stupid place (facing the engine mount/subframe/steering rack). GReddy do a relocation kit which puts it towards the gearbox, I would have preferred towards the front but there's obviously a lot more stuff there. Something I'll have to look at for the next service perhaps. First time using Valvoline oil, although I can't see it being any different to most other brands Nice... The oil filter location... At least the subframe wont rust any time soon I picked up a genuine fuel filter, this is part of the fuel pump assembly inside the fuel tank. Access can be found underneath the rear seat, you'll see this triangular cover Remove the 3x plastic 10mm nuts and lift the cover up, pushing the rubber grommet through The yellow fuel line clips push out in opposite directions, remove these completely. The two moulded fuel lines can now pull upwards to disconnect, along with the wire electrical plug. There's 8x 8mm bolts that secure the black retaining ring. The fuel pump assembly is now ready to lift out. Be mindful of the fuel hose on the side, the hose clamp on mine was catching the hose preventing it from lifting up The fuel pump/filter has an upper and lower section held on by 4 pressure clips. These did take a little bit of force, it sounded like the plastic tabs were going to break but they didn't (don't worry!) The lower section helps mount the fuel pump, there's a circular rubber gasket/grommet/seal thing on the bottom where the sock is. Undo the hose clip on the short fuel hose on the side to disconnect it from the 3 way distribution pipe to be able to lift the upper half away. Don't forget to unplug the fuel pump too! There's a few rubber O rings that will need transferring to the new filter housing, I show these in the video at the bottom of this write up. Reassembly is the reverse Here's a photo of the new filter installed, you'll be able to see where the tabs are more clearing against the yellow OEM plastic Once the assembly is re-installed, I turned the engine over a few times to help build up fuel pressure. I did panic when the car stopped turning over but I could hear the fuel pump making a noise. It eventually started and has been fine since. Found my 'lucky' coin underneath the rear seat too The Youtube video can be seen here: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=uLJ65pmQt44&t=6s
    • It was picked up on the MOT/Inspection that the offside front wheel bearing had excessive play along with the ball joint. It made sense to do both sides so I sourced a pair of spare IS200 hubs to do the swap. Unfortunately I don't have any photos of the strip down but here's a quick run down. On the back of the hub is a large circular dust cover, using a flat head screw driver and a mallet I prised it off. Underneath will reveal a 32mm hub nut (impact gun recommended). With the hub nut removed the ABS ring can be removed (I ended up using a magnetic pick up tool to help). Next up is to remove the stub axle, this was a little trickier due to limited tools. I tried a 3 leg puller but the gap between the hub and stub axle wasn't enough for the legs to get in and under. Next option was a lump hammer and someone pulling the stub axle at the same time. After a few heavy hits it released. The lower bearing race had seized itself onto the stub axle, which was fine because I was replacing them anyway. With the upper bearing race removed and the grease cleaned off they looked like this The left one looked pristine inside but gave us the most trouble. The right one had some surface rust but came apart in a single hit, figure that out?! I got a local garage to press the new wheel bearings in, reassemble was the opposite and didn't take long at all. Removing the hub itself was simple. Starting with removing the brake caliper, 2x 14mm bolts for the caliper slider and 2x 19mm? for the carrier > hub bolts. I used a cable tie to secure the caliper to the upper arm so it was out of the way, there's a 10mm bolt securing the ABS sensor on. With the brake disc removed from the hub next are the three castle nuts for the upper and lower ball joints and track rod end. Two of these had their own R clip and one split pin. A few hits with the hammer and they're released (I left the castle nuts on by a couple of turns), the track rod ends gave me the most grief and I may have nipped the boots (oops). Fitting is the reversal and is very quick and easy to do. The lower ball joints are held onto the hub by 2x 17mm bolts. The castle nut did increase in socket size to 22mm from memory (this may vary from supplier) The two front tyres weren't in great condition, so I had those replaced with some budget tyres for the time being. I'll be replacing the wheels and tyres in the future, this was to get me on the road without the worry of the police hassling me.
