Let me get this right, a business wants to to go away and not spend your money there cause your scaring away potential customers...

Im shocked and dumb founded, I personally read this as "We dont want your business"...

Other tenants would complain i agree, this would cause friction between them...

Obviously the profit you bring is not worth the hassle to them...

This is the epic depot I was talking about last night: http://www.nearmap.com/?ll=-27.333333,153....mp;nmd=20100912

Yeah that's how I read it too.

I'm not sure if I detect sarcasm in your first sentance or not though...

Over winter, the place is a ghost town. Some nights we would be the ONLY customers. Obviously in summer it is busier but I really doubt we are scaring away any customers. And if we are, it wouldnt be more business than the amount we bring.

He sure has changed his tune, from encouraging us to go there and giving us discount to a veritable "F*ck off". I wonder what the true story behind it is...

I guess so, although it has been up till now...

In any case, if we aren't welcome, we will leave. Hopefully his reply is a little more positive.

So, I can go there and buy stuff?

Why is the council trying to shut it down?

Maybe if the council is shutting down they will be keen to just get rid of sh*t...

Theres a heap of stuff in there. Trucks, cranes, plant equipment, etc. Not sure about mowers, might be.

I'm keen for a car trailer. They have about half a dozen parked out the front, including one newish looking fully enclosed job (its probably out of the budget but some of the others might not be, especially if they are closing down).

Yes you can!!!

Because its been re-zoned as residential about 12 years ago...

The owner of the land could not sell it due to flood risk (funny now)...

So he is leasing it out to a company who buy and sell second hand machinery...

As is a residential area they have little right to use it as a commercial property bordering on industrial which is illegal...

So council is trying to say selling machinery is industrial but technically they get away with it cause its commercial... politics...

You can save up to 80% this weekend and get a free rug

From the street it looks like anything from bobcats up to big earth moving equipment, worth a look see...

Nays dad bought a bobcat and a kanga/dingo from him a few months back... He was about half the price that everyone else wanted...

I think they buy all their gear at auctions, people desperate to sell then pass the savings on...

He seems to turn over a shit load of machinery, might be a chop shop? :D

As forseen, not a particularily productive day.

It's not even noon, and I am already at home, pretending to be in meetings.

Martin, who were you going to use for your cage? Deliberating between a cheap half bolt in job, or just biting the bullet and doing it right. My mate that was going to do it is too busy with work

Cool, So I guess I just rock up, go down the driveway and ask how much they want for the car trailers?

There's no signs up or anything which is why I wasn't sure what it actually was...

keen to get a small mobile crane. wonder how much that would be...

That's what she said.

Not 100% sure yet, but the first person I plan to talk to is Norm Singleton: http://www.fiatabarthclassicracing.com.au

This is because he apparantly does good work, and specialises in Italian sh*tboxes cars.

      R33 persistent issues. P/steering and lag/misfire

      R33 persistent issues. P/steering and lag/misfire

      By MissMintyR33 · Posted

      I had someone check the CU, they said it was fine but it could be buggered  I was only running around 7-10 PSI on the dual stage controller, but my boost gauge is shit house and needs replacing so I'm not getting a true reading.  Then I ran from wastegate pressure as per Turbosmart but still have the same sort of issue

      By Murray_Calavera · Posted

      Yeah this is a thing. I've had mine setup like this for a few years now, works fine. If I dredge my memory bank, I think I had to do this after I removed my factory dash.  So you've tried it on gate pressure, I'm assuming this is the factory turbo? Did you still have misfire issues with that setup?

      By GTSBoy · Posted

      Power steering is probably because someone has nuked the HICAS CU and you no longer have the variable power asist doing what it is supposed to. How much boost are you running? You are aware that any more than 10 psi on the stock ECU is just asking for it to go to full R&R (that's Rich & Retard, which is effectively Retarded and Retarded!) which kills all the power. Depending on the exact conditions, it can just be runnign on the fat and stupid end of the maps, then the conditions change, you make a little more boost and the ECU goes into panic.

      Freddy Plenum vs Genuine options RB25

      By Kapr · Posted

      @BuiltNotBought Just as GTSboy said.   If you want driveabilty and more low down torque..keep the stock runners. They are VERY good from a factory. I have them too on my RB25DET NEO and as a GTSboy i have fmic but with stock piping route(i have Blitz intercooler) Iam making around 320 BHP and the car pulls "hard" from like 2,5k all the way to 7k. I have it dyno tuned to mimic N/A power curve and making little less max torque due to the smallbox tranny. But driveability is very great. I had 350Nm below 3k so car feels very quick.   EDIT:  Not my channel but i saw this and i know that is what i want (and i have exactly this)
