If you've rather dick around waste money looking for someone who MAY fix the problem because of pride and ego, by all means

and principle, absolutely.

stubbornness FTW

Anyway EFI's alright. All these bashing is really over the top.

I forget, what did EFI do on your car? And who's bashing them? We already said it's not bashing, it's opinion gathering.

M1? Lets just say its illegal but hey AT LEAST they're doing it on a 4 lane straight road. I believe a lot here has done stuff that are even worse.

ahhhhh I forgot you couldn't crash when driving in a straight line!

and four lanes means that if you do crash, you can't possibly kill an innocent person in the wrong place at the wrong time.

That logic is similar to "It's ok if I drive drunk... I don't have far to go"

I'm strong in my convictions Brandon, so going against principle and therefore going against myself WOULD be doing something guilty.

Erm... in the middle of the night... Erm... chance of accident.... Erm.... going around corners at 120km... Chance of accident. You work it out yourself.

Dan's car is an example. Other than the fact that it took a couple of weeks. But at least at the end there's no problem at all. + I've already realised a lot of things are out of the control of the mechanics/workshops (parts taking longer to arrive, bolts round, crossthreaded). No job is perfect. You would have thought fitting a cat and front pipe to my car is only a 15-30mins job but it took more than an hour cause the front pipe and dump pipe section was seized up. Oh not to mention SOMEBUM told me its only a couple of hours job to change my dumps on the hoist. Imagine if I did believe that, I would be paying 1 or 2days worth of labour as compared to a couple of hours.

Anyway enough of my ranting. If I'd the same problem as you do, and if Dan recommend I go to EFI, I'll go there. The recommendation these people gets are a testimony to the work they do.

Oh yea, after yesterday, I'll recommend Gavin Wood to anyone for tuning too!

I think only one person who actually works EFI was the driver of a car that night....and the 'skids' have been well blown out of proportion especially re the numbers of them.

From the SAU club you can count Warwick, Noel, Big Dave, Chris and a few random others as very happy clients

I know you guys have opinions and i have no interest in changing them but i dont want some one to come along and only see one side of the story

I'm not basing my opinion on just that night

Dan is very good, especially with that type of mechanical fault, also builds a mean engine!

So I hear

Where shall I leave the spare bolts?

I have box for them :D

I wonder if the 20e and 20de bottom ends are the same? Cause thats all i really need!

I'd guess yes, but its just a guess

Anyway EFI's alright. All these bashing is really over the top. M1? Lets just say its illegal but hey AT LEAST they're doing it on a 4 lane straight road. I believe a lot here has done stuff that are even worse.

IMO, that does not make it ANY way better

Baskin skid? Yes I agree its bad but who knows who was the actual guy who did it? You get people like this all the time.

They ALL behaved like idiots (not just talking about skids)

ps brandon that mercury day is next saturday hey not this saturday... right?

im still keen :worship:

mercury, now theres a shop I WILL happily bash

MERCURY! Now there is a place i wouldnt go in a million years...but every one has different experiences at different places!

I love mercury tunes...when i got one i had to get it retuned and at full load my AFRs dropped off the widebands scale! Yet still knocked its ass off at certain points. Gotta love it when people think that if they make it stupidly rich they cant hurt the engine and totally ignore ignition timing :ninja:

i need this clarified - is this a stab at ppl skidding/drifting on public streets, or ppl racing on the freeway or what?

either way not a good idea

      If it (the code) wasn't still current, it should have gone away by itself by now. No, nothing it 10/10. But it is quite likely. Everything else to do with the ignition could still be responsible (which is wires and connectors). The car is an old piece of shit now, so all the wires and connectors are also old pieces of shit.

      Duncan's V37.......race car?

      By Duncan · Posted

      Before I get to the test day, just to finish off the android head unit. This is a demo from car start up....the standard/host system takes a few seconds to boot (same as all v37) but Android comes up quickly. In this vid I'm using the delivered launcher but have set the default to Agami since which is easier to navigate when if use primarily 5 apps. You can see the host system still takes over when required eg putting it in reverse, and you can switch between Android and not by holding the back button 3 sec. It is pretty responsive (fast) but you can see I had to press harder than expected a couple of times.  I still have the phone connected to the stock system, and that also seamlessly takes over Android music playing. v37-android-demo.mp4 The bigger reason that I put this in though is so that I can use Ecutek directly on the head unit. That gives me a dash with logging (up to 20MB only), high and low value warnings on any parameter etc etc. I've run a USB cable from the Ecutek OBD dongle to a USB input on the unit, easy. v37-ecutek-demo.mp4   The unit did freeze on the launcher the other day, I think Agami was trying to verify the license when it didn't have a data connection...will monitor and report back if there are any other problems but so far I'm very happy with the upgrade.
