On Logan Rd near Mt Gravatt. Sucks about the water leak, hopefully it's nothing too serious.

Oh yes, I know the place! Yeah shouldnt be too bad, just another one of those annoying damn things that always crop up at the end of builds

Yeah after being off the road for awhile there are bound to be little niggly problems that crop up.

always! it takes a good month or two before you find them aswell :huh:

Question:

How does one attach a plush toy to the bumper (tow hook) a la drift toy? I finally worked out what I want... but need to know how to attach it!

zip ties FTW

zip ties FTW

yep mine have always been zipped on, or in the case of bigbird on the blue r32 it was wedged in the tow hook in an effort to keep the rear bar on lol

It doesnt have a loop on it? What is it? If it is 'humanoid' in shape go for one around the neck then put one through that and on to the tow hook

one around the waist and then looped to the tow hook. or get your Mrs to sew a cloth loop on somwhere near where the coin slot is!

You want his mrs to sew a loop in her WHAT!!!!

Congrats Andy now you need to bring it to Baskins so we can all ogle it. :banana:

+11ty!!! Great stuff cAndy!

In other news John Deere FC had their first win last night. 4 - 2 :/

Good Job, Team.

We still haven't won a game all season :)

i wouldnt attach taht if i was you.

thats just cop bait. theyd want to come see their friend dangling off your car and pull you over every 30sec.

P.S. went to work at 7:15 today, got home at 6:15. Fail

P.P.S Noel, where's your f1/33/boat avatar?

Trust me smitz, it will be there just as soon as my bud comes over.

I had two of those tree shaped air fresheners hanging from my rear bar at some point, but someone stole them :whistling:

Stopped the car from smelling like dirty exhaust fumes though - so if anyone wants to top themself just hang some air fresheners and die in a nice smelling environment.

Actually thats horrible, mental illness is serious business as is the internet.

    • Per Mark Roberts of Sonictune: Mark Robert Author At this time, no. No ETA either 2016-17 models. You will be able to purchase and install a 2018.5+ TCU though   TCU purchasing and pricing info! As we near the release of TCU tuning, I am going to answer some questions I get asked often.   What do I need for TCU tuning? At this time, you will need a 2018.5+ TCU to be able to tune. If you have a 2016-to early 2018, you will need to replace your TCU with the newer version. One good way to know if your TCU is good is if you have auto upshift in manual mode in 1st gear around 6500 rpms. If your manual 1st gear goes to 7k rpm and will hit the rev limiter unless you shift, you have the older TCU.   Why do I need to buy another ecu license/phone flash if I already have it on my ECU tune? The TCU is its own computer module. It is completely separate from the ECU. Because of this, you will be required to purchase a TCU license and, if your tuner has it, the phone flash license required to tune it via phone/bluetooth.   Do I need TCU tuning? TCU tuning is NOT required. However, the faster your setup, the more it will assist in track and dragy time consistency.   If I’m ECU tuned by (tuner A) can I get my TCU tuned by (Tuner ? Yes, since it’s a different module and a completely separate flash, you can have two different tuners. However, it is highly recommend that you have both tuned by the same tuner. For me, my TCU tuning will directly complement my ECU tuning style and features and running my ECU and another TCU or vice versa MIGHT cause some issues. At this time and for the foreseeable future, I will only be tuning my current ECU tuned customers TCUs.     I have a SYVECS AWD controller. Do I still need it? Yes! The AWD controllers main job is to control your AWD system. However, with TCU tuning, you will no longer need the auto-shift function as that will be done through the TCU. The AWD controller will still be very beneficial for racers looking to maximize traction on the launch.     Shift schedule changes: holding gears longer at lower pedal input as well as max shift rpm changes. Please note, the new ECU race rom coming out will address 90% of the shitty drivability issues these cars have through custom maps from myself and Racebox—as well as others I am sure.   Increase shift speeds: as seen in the videos I’ve been posting, the TCU shifts much faster once tuned.   Increased shift pressures: as also seen in the videos, much firmer full throttle shifts.

    • The fancy pants red shock tower brace is finally incoming from MX5 Mania, getting it shipped from 'Merica has been a long and problematic process, and GWR, the 'Merican supplier will not ship directly to consumers outside of the US, Mania basically had to order a heap of them, the colour choice was silver, or red, and we all know anything red adds 5 killerwasps of dynotorques..... Whilst it does fit over a 2.5, and I've seen a few photos and videos of it being installed and fitting, google also says it might get real close to the FAB9 intake front runner, people in the US says it does fit with the FAB9 intake, except for one person who said it slightly touched.......so there is that.....LOL..... As it seems that I am the first in AU to have this combination of parts there's no local knowledge about fitment, so I'm just a willing guinea pig in this endeavour, I'll cross my fingers and toes and hope for the best In other news, I ordered stuff from China  on the same day I ordered the 23° silicone bend from Victoria, the stuff from China arrived a day ago, the 23° silicone bend is still travelling around Australia thanks to Australia Post, and "may" be here next week
    • Very good news...I contacted Racebox about it last night. My car is a 2016 so remains to be seen if it is compatible, requires a TCU swap, or is impossible.
    • What ECU are you running? This is probably the biggest question. If it's a PowerFC, I'd probably change the ECU and get something newer that will handle the injectors in a nicer way.
