Sorry. Meant ranga col. He's working at hamilton atm. Rain seems to have died off now anyway. We got sorta evacuated from work though. Hope we still get paid though...

Yes we will be paid john as they are sending us home. i have been told we are closed tommorrow as well and to be prepared to not return till sat( well sat for me and monday for you lol)

And thanks for all your help yesterday as well john. That was a most hectic day lol

Get far?

Made it out half way, then got a phone call to say it was cancelled.

Turned back, got beer, bourbon and coke. Marisa is bringing pretzels, mixed nuts and jerkey.

No dvds. Decided to watch season 7 of the office instead

ok so i just got home...

been up in the air all morning delivering supplies into the locker valley and all I can say is "f**k"

we took off from redcliffe aerodrome which was an effort to get too, i saw the damage the pine river has done

then i thought this is bad, we got further over mt glorious and then i saw the real damage

holy shit is all i can say, it is all kinds of screwed up and the rest you cant see cause its still under water

Have you got the entire season 7? I've only got the first few episodes so far. Room mate and I spent most of the last two weeks watching all the seasons.

Sweeeeet. Probably Saturday or Sunday for me as well. I told John to give me a call if we're doing a cleanup on the weekend so that we can get straight back into it on Monday.

I don't know about you guys out there in the comfy chairs and aircon :P, but we're all pretty much on standby until Monday.

No worries with yesterday, mang. I was already saturated from the morning, so I didn't care if I was stuck back out in the rain again. At least we didn't have to move the cars very far!

This would not be a rocket ship but should smash autocad out of the park without trouble. Basically the same as the last one but with more ram and a bit better video card.

Should I go buy a neo turbo for 1/3 of the price of highflowing my current one?

Pickup from about 15 mins from my place...... no flood waters around.......

I can't decide whether I should pick it up tonight or just fob it off and highflow my current one

Have you got the entire season 7? I've only got the first few episodes so far. Room mate and I spent most of the last two weeks watching all the seasons.

I only have the first 8 episodes at the moment.

Will have a look for the other ones tomorrow. Not sure where they are up to in the US

Buy it... then highflow it.

Colin, cruise on Sunday postponed.

Anyone know if they want more volunteers yet? Feeling very awake, could smash some hours overnight

No work for Woolworths for a while. Cash registers are floating around the store.

There is a RSL through there somewhere to the right. That's the Ipswich Motorway to the right.

yer pretty much is, i got my name down, got told they have more then they need but they will call if they need me

In all honesty I don't think offering help for sandbagging at the moment is worth it. They have way more than enough people at the moment.

I'm gonna try and help out where I can over the weekend/early next week when people need help cleaning up in the city/surrounding suburbs once the waters go down. I think we'll need as many people as we can get during that time and I'd be more than happy to help out for a bit, where I can.

Buy it... then highflow it.

Yeah I should be getting it tomorrow. That's what I'm thinking too. Quick cheap fix for now, plus will yield better results from high flowing once I can save the money at my leisure to actually have it high flowed lol.

    • @Murray_Calavera  If I were an expert I wouldn't be in here looking for assistance.  I am extremely computer literate, have above average understanding on how things should be working and how they should tie together.  If I need to go to a professional tuner so be it, but I'd much rather learn and do things myself even if it means looking for some guidance along the way and blowing up a few engines. @GTSBoy  I was hoping it would be as simple as a large vacuum leak somewhere but I'm unable to find anything, all lines seem to be well capped or going where they need to be, and when removed there is vacuum felt on the tube.  It would be odd for the Haltech built in MAP to be faulty, the GTT tune I imported had it enabled from the start, I incorrectly assumed it was reading a signal from the stock MAP, but that doesn't exist.  After running a vacuum hose to the ECU the signal doesn't change more than 0.2 in either direction.   I'll probably upload a video of my settings tomorrow, as it stands I'm able to daily drive, but getting stuttering when giving it gas from idle, so pulling away from lights is a slow process of revving it up and feathering the clutch until its moving, then it will accelerate fine.  It sounds like I need to get to the bottom of the manifold pressure issue, but the ignition timing section is most intimidating to me and will probably let a pro do that part.  Tomorrow I'll try a different vacuum line to T off of, with any luck I selected one that was already bypassed during the DBW swap. @feartherb26  I do have +T in the works but wanted to wait until Spring to start with that swap since this is my good winter AWD vehicle.  When removing the butterfly, did it leave a bunch of holes in the manifold that you needed to plug?  I thought about removing it but assumed it would be a mess.   I notice no difference when capping the vacuum line to it or letting it do its thing.  This whole thing has convinced me to just get a forward facing manifold when the time comes though.
    • Update: tested my spark plugs that are supposed to be 5ohms with a 10% deviation and one gave me a 0 ohms reading and the rest were 3.9ohm<, so one bad and the others on their way out.
    • 9" wheels are a little too wide for a RWD 32. They can fit. People have put R33 GTR wheels on 32s for years and years. But they are a very tight squeeze. This has been known for about 30 years. As I said - there is no difference between a 17 and an 18 in terms of what will fit. The rolling diameter needs to stay about the same as stock - not very much larger. If you increase that, you will start to have problems. If you increae rolling diamater at the same time as yo increase width, you will have problems earlier. as 9" wheels are pushing the boundaries already, you would need to be careful with tyre choice. I would put 8.5s on the front of mine, but would expect problems with 9s.
    • post up screen shots of your injector tables
    • Diagnostic flow for a code 21 says check signal at the ECU pins, on a voltmeter of some kind it should read 0.1V at idle, 0.12V cranking, 0.15-0.25V at 2000 rpm. Check each coil such that +1, -3 is infinite or very high resistance, -3, +2 should do the same. (-1, +3), (+3, -2), (+1, -2), and (-1, +2) should all be somewhere between 0 ohms and high resistance. If you trace the path from the coil pin all the way back to the ECU in the diagram the resistance you measure at the coil vs connected to the harness should be pretty much the same.
