f**k this baskins shit is frustrating

that place is dead as every night of the week. we'd bring them close to $100 in an hour on thursdays

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

Thats the wholesale 2nd hand machinery yard that council is trying to shut down...

lick my penis col

i was there, for the very first one (L)

:P

Pretty much lol.

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?

Wholesale yard though. We need a group buy on heavy machinery :P

what sort of machinery are we talking here? Annas dad is in the market for one of those bigass skid steer ride on mowers that the councils use.

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).

no sarcasm intended

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...

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.

    • It would be different if the sealant hadn't started to peel up with gaps in the glue about ~6cm and bigger in some areas. I would much prefer not having to do the work take them off the car . However, the filler the owner put in the roof rack mount cavities has shrunk and begun to crack on the rail delete panels. I cant trust that to hold off moisture ingress especially where I live. Not only that but I have faded paint on as well as on either side of these panels, so they would need to come off to give the roofline a proper respray. My goal is to get in there and put a healthy amount of epoxy instead of panel filler/bog and potentially skin with carbon fiber. I have 2 spare rolls from an old motorcycle fairing project from a few years back and I think it'd be a nice touch on a black stag.  I've seen some threads where people replace their roof rack delete with a welded in sheet metal part. But has anyone re-worked the roof rails themselves? It seems like there is a lot of volume there to add in some threads and maybe a keyway for a quick(er) release roof rack system. Not afraid to mill something out if I have to. It would be cool to have a cross bar only setup. That way I can keep the sleek roofline that would accept a couple bolts to gain back that extra utility  3D print some snazzy covers to hide the threaded section to be thorough and keep things covered when not using the rack. 
    • Probably not. A workshop grade scantool is my go to for proper Consult interrogation. Any workshop grade tool should do it. Just go to a workshop.
    • In my head it does make sense to be a fuel problem since that is what I touched when cleaning the system. When I was testing with the fuel pressure gauge, the pressure was constantly 2.5 bar with the FPR vacuum removed. When stalling, the pressure was going up to 3.0 bar (which is how it should be on ignition).
    • ECUtalk pages don't mention they support the ABS computer (consult port has more than one CAN), so you might just need a different scan tool. But, I would expect ABS is a different light to the brake warning/handbrake light, do you see an ABS light come on for a few seconds when you turn the key from ACC to IGN? But since you said: I'd have a look at the ABS sensors in the rear hubs to make sure they are not damaged, disconnected etc.
    • OK, if it idles at 1000+ with the AAC, its not an idle airflow problem. The cold start valve just gives extra air when the engine is cold, but you have enough air without it to idle at 1000. I think you are back to a fuel problem, sorry. Can you see the fuel pressure staying constant or does it drop as the revs drop to a stall?
