How? With his car

What? Ran into me

When? Last night

Where? In the car park

Why? Because I was standing in front of the car while he was parking

It's pretty bad hey... Doctor says I will probably lose the leg if I don't come up with a white 32 GT-R...

Emotional stress as well, that's going to cost a lot for counselling...

Strip club?

I have (totally not bribed) witnesses though.

Lol sure why not. Thursday nights are about to get a lot more expensive though :D

Do the strippers have icecream?

Touche.

So Smity, do you want a nissan patrol too. Just stand in the car park next week and I'll organise another law suite for ya. :D

Sounds good, has got to be a better tow car than the sexF :)

Worth it. Totally.

Sounds good, has got to be a better tow car than the sexF :devil:

I saw that thing on Top Gear... I shuddered a little.

someone build me a new pc while the dollar is good. Dual monitors, decent sized hard drive, able to run auto cad 2010 with dying etc. Budget $1500 incl screens. 2 x 19/20in monitors would suffice.

no

kfc indro? lots of parking, lots of seating? or even the maccas or hungry jacks on moggil. big carpark and a big outdoor area?

Since when is there heaps of parking at KFC at Indooroopilly?! ;)

I was also thinking Taringa Hungry Jacks might be a good idea though (if that's the one you meant)

Fark. You're not going to get much around that price my friend.

Autocad is pretty intense and since you're after something with 2 screens as well you're gonna need to set aside 2.5k for a half decent one.

Here's something I'd reccomend, which would keep you out of trouble for a while.

CPU: Core i7 950

Mainboard: Gigabyte ga-x58A-UD5

Memory: 6GB Kingston DDR3

Hdd: 2x Seagate Barracuda 1tb SataII

Optical: Lite-On Blu Ray IHOS104

Video: Gigabyte Radeon 5870 2GB/850mhz/DDR5

OS: Windows 7 64bit

Thats around 2100 with 100 for me to put it together with a case and an antec psu.

Then you add the screens

2x Samsung LED 20" $450

This is a rough pricing though, so it may end up cheaper than what I've put down here but yeah if you have more money to play with I'd have a bit more leeway in parts etc.

Yeah... what Keaton said. Be less of a jew.

2 x 20" screens for $1500, not a problem. Or computer to run 2 x 20" screens, but not actually having any screens also, not a problem. Both together = Spend more.

Bah f**kin lame. Surely Autocad isn't that intense. I run it on my laptop now and this piece of shit is 5 years old. Intel Pentium M 1.73ghz with 1gb of ram. It runs it f**kin slow and I can't do anything else while I'm using it but it's semi usable. My comp at work uses 2 screens and that thing is a heap of shit aswell. Guess I will have to wait a bit longer :blink:

Well that was a fail of a mission to get that bonnet...... thanks Martin for the loan of the sexF bahaha

Might get it tomorrow murrrrrrrrrrrr

Since when is there heaps of parking at KFC at Indooroopilly?! :blink:

Yeh, the one opposite the mazda dealership. There next week?

Im sure you could run it on somthing far cheaper than suggested, the guys out at our workshops run it on really old school computers. Geeks always over specify when you ask for computer advice :(

    • @Haggerty this is your red flag. In MAP based ECU's the Manifold pressure X RPM calculation is how the engine knows it is actually...running/going through ANY load. You are confusing the term 'base map' with your base VE/Fuel table. When most people say 'base map' they mean the stock entire tune shipped with the ECU, hopefully aimed at a specific car/setup to use as a base for beginning to tune your specific car. Haltech has a lot of documentation (or at least they used to, I expect it to be better now). Read it voraciously.
    • I saw you mention this earlier and it raised a red flag, but I couldn't believe it was real. Yes, the vacuum signal should vary. It is the one and only load signal from the engine to the ECU, and it MUST vary. It is either not connected or is badly f**ked up in some way.
    • @Haggerty you still haven't answered my question.  Many things you are saying do not make sense for someone who can tune, yet I would not expect someone who cannot tune to be playing with the things in the ECU that you are.  This process would be a lot quicker to figure out if we can remove user error from the equation. 
    • If as it's stalling, the fuel pressure rises, it's saying there's less vacuum in the intake manifold. This is pretty typical of an engine that is slowing down.   While typically is agree it sounds fuel related, it really sounds fuel/air mixture related. Since the whole system has been refurbished, including injectors, pump, etc, it's likely we've altered how well the system is delivering fuel. If someone before you has messed with the IACV because it needed fiddling with as the fuel system was dieing out, we need to readjust it back. Getting things back to factory spec everywhere, is what's going to help the entire system. So if it idles at 400rpm with no IACV, that needs raising. Getting factory air flow back to normal will help us get everything back in spec, and likely help chase down any other issues. Back on IACV, if the base idle (no IACV plugged in) is too far out, it's a lot harder for the ECU to control idle. The IACV duty cycle causes non linear variations in reality. When I've tuned the idle valves in the past, you need to keep it in a relatively narrow window on aftermarket ecus to stop them doing wild dances. It also means if your base idle is too low, the valve needs to open too much, and then the smallest % change ends up being a huge variation.
    • I guess one thing that might be wrong is the manifold pressure.  It is a constant -5.9 and never moves even under 100% throttle and load.  I would expect it to atleast go to 0 correct?  It's doing this with the OEM MAP as well as the ECU vacuum sensor. When trying to tune the base map under load the crosshairs only climb vertically with RPM, but always in the -5.9 column.
