@John, Joe,

Sorry but I feel the need to back the rear admiral up and I refuse to violate my policy of not posting on faceparty. Hell pizza is awesome, and I wish there was one near me too

Yeah, but I already knew you were gay.

What dude we met what day?

But yes, Option 1 FTW, as long as you don't mind sitting around for hours while they work on other peoples cars (despite being booked in), and don't mind having to go back and do it AGAIN after they put both tyres on for the left hand side. Price you pay for cheap tyres I guess...

I expect to be buying:

2 x 215/45/17 595 RS-R

2 x 235/45/17 595 RS-R

2 x 235/45/17 595 SS

Also will be getting another pair of SS's stripped off some skid rims and fitted to my advans.

They also do khumos really cheap (KU31s FTW) but since I already have a near new pair of 595s for the front, i'm going to get some for the rear and see how they compare. The grip is not quite as good, but maybe they will last longer...

Yeah seen that, heaps epic

but Alfa 3.2 V6 > RB26

:D

your mum > alfa 3.2 v6 < RB26

thats better

all this alfa talk makes me wanta slap you... break out of it...

Morning guys

I Fucking hate people, I wish they would all fuck off and die

John I was thinking about what were saying about jobs, and I think I have got one that will make you happy.

Dan at ERD does good prices on Federals too, then you can just take them and get them fitted anywhere you like.

Too far away :D

I could take the tyres from option 1 and get them fitted elsewhere, but they fit and balance them for 10 bux and are only 5 minutes from work, so I really CBF

I can grab them for you. Picking my car up from ERD hopefully today.

edit. I just read the whole post. nm :D

Can't find anywhere that will do a decent price exhaust for the golf.

Prices are astronomical. Might try to source one from Europe.

Try Scotty at Scots rods, good pipes, great prices.

ahh the old distance issue, could try Neta tyre services, they are the distributer and are at northgate

They are literally right across the road. I can see them out the window. Will give them a yell.

Yeah thanks for the offer bro, but probably too much hassle to work it all out

Can try Fat Pipes at Kallangur. I hear very good things from many different people, have not used them myself yet though.

    • If you take the top half of the intake off you can unbolt the flap off the shaft and leave the shaft in there blocking the hole. Then you can remove the little vacuum canister off from under the manifold and get a spare vacuum line to run to the ECU. I can take some photos of it later. Probably best to get the vacuum source to the ECU sorted first though. Mine all worked mint with the base map from the GTT an I've pretty much let the closed loop sort the fueling and took 1 degree out of the whole timing map.
    • This IS something you also have to configure in Haltech (or at least I did in the past when going from onboard-to-ECU map sensor and an external MAP sensor in haltech land).
    • I'm hoping it's something as simple as the ECU is looking for an external MAP sensor, but he is trying to use the onboard MAP sensor.
    • You won't need to do that if your happy to learn to tune it yourself. You 100% do not need to do that. It is not part of the learning process. It's not like driving on track and 'finding the limit by stepping over the limit'. You should not ever accidently blow up an engine and you should have setup the ECU's engine protection to save you from yourself while you are learning anyway. Plenty of us have tuned their own cars, myself included. We still come here for advice/guidance/new ideas etc.  What have you been doing so far to learn how to tune?
    • Put the ECU's MAP line in your mouth. Blow as hard as you can. You should be able to see about 10 kPa, maybe 15 kPa positive pressure. Suck on it. You should be able to generate a decent vacuum to about the same level also. Note that this is only ~2 psi either way. If the MAP is reading -5 psi all the time, ignition on, engine running or not, driving around or not, then it is severely f**ked. Also, you SHOULD NOT BE DRIVING IT WITHOUT A LOAD REFERENCE. You will break the engine. Badly.
