Nice stuff Dan

Evening all!

Anyone care to help, tell me about subframe bushes? I have clunks that have been there since I bought the car, I'm narrowing it down to the tailshaft/diff area, or possibly subframe bushes, based on what I've read.

How many bushes are there? Where are they, what is required to change them?

the bushes that hold the subframe to the body? or the bushes that hold the various suspension arms/diff onto the subframe?

could also be the tie rods or rack ends of the hicas setup. If its the subframe bushes themselves you'll next an oxy and a hacksaw

Ok, well I'll start with the easiest options first I guess.

Would the bushes where the arms etc join the subframe be the easiest place to start out of those options?

get under the back with a long screw driver or pry bar and try see what moves around too much, thats the best way to start looking, otherwise you just start throwing money away on things that don't need doing yet.

Morning Mangs,

Boring weekend was boring. Wanted to wash the car but it wouldn't stop f**king raining. Stupid weather.

End.

Solution to being bored: GT5.

Mate doesn't have a PS3 and Lee would throw a shitfit if I tried to take the PS3 away lol. Have to wait until my mate sees the light and decides he needs a PS3

I'll trade you a PS3 for your sister. I'll even throw in a copy of GT5 ;)

    • Lock me in mate, although I'm not sure if I'll be heading up from Goulburn or down from Sydney, either way, return will be back to Goulburn 
    • Sounds good, we will aim to be there! @The Bogan I'll give you a shout if you are heading up to campbelltown for the meet too.
    • Before I get to the test day, just to finish off the android head unit. This is a demo from car start up....the standard/host system takes a few seconds to boot (same as all v37) but Android comes up quickly. In this vid I'm using the delivered launcher but have set the default to Agami since which is easier to navigate when if use primarily 5 apps. You can see the host system still takes over when required eg putting it in reverse, and you can switch between Android and not by holding the back button 3 sec. It is pretty responsive (fast) but you can see I had to press harder than expected a couple of times.  I still have the phone connected to the stock system, and that also seamlessly takes over Android music playing. v37-android-demo.mp4 The bigger reason that I put this in though is so that I can use Ecutek directly on the head unit. That gives me a dash with logging (up to 20MB only), high and low value warnings on any parameter etc etc. I've run a USB cable from the Ecutek OBD dongle to a USB input on the unit, easy. v37-ecutek-demo.mp4   The unit did freeze on the launcher the other day, I think Agami was trying to verify the license when it didn't have a data connection...will monitor and report back if there are any other problems but so far I'm very happy with the upgrade.
    • Nah that is just crappy GPS mapping, I did have a small excursion (cold tyres, damp track, surprise!), will post up that when I get a chance.
    • So 10/10 times that code is coil packs? I mean if that's the case ill drop the $400USD or so to replace them. I didn't know these cars threw codes before the issue became an issue.
