Had enough of getting treated like shit. plus im wanting to spend more time with kids.

it is dead quiet in the car sales game atm and when that happens it is always the sales peoples fault lol.

So if any of you good sau people know of any jobs going please let me know lol.

It's weird not having you at work.

just not next week, as I'm on call, so shouldn't really drink

shouldn't being the key word. I still go ok if I'm drunk, but there is no point doing a night out, as I am sometimes on the phone for hours, depending on the crisis.

It's weird not having you at work.

It is weird not working in general.

i so need a job within next 2 weeks so i can get brakes done and go to happy laps in oct lol. Wife has said we cant spend ANY$ till im employed, which is fair enough lol.

i miss having chats with people, esp shooting the breeze with u john

I'd say apply with us but sounds like you've just left the same kinda place haha.

We're dead at the moment too, only reason i've been busy with my work is i got big jobs to do, anyone want to replace the heater core on a 166? I'm about 1/4 the way through the job

time out for me whilst chasing an electrical gremlin in a funky colored car..

(dan I think I worked it out.)

kiwi,

what happened?

keen for german club

anybody want to set a date?

I promise I will wear shoes this time

Wow haven't been there in a while, definately ended with me being violently ill though...won a load of cash on the pokies there and spent it all on that stupidly strong beer they stock...haven't been able to drink wheat beer since :(

I am a big fan of german sausage. Love the food. Love the beer. Don't really love their lack of love of my formal thongs

Morning Mangs,

Will discuss possible dates for german club tonight.

Probably won't be out there tonight. Off to Bundaberg tomorrow, and will have to pack tonight, as won't get a chance tomorrow.

Plan for tomorrow, get home from work, feed and bathe kids, watch Broncos game and then attempt to break the land speed record on the way to Bundy.

Wed night is good, just pref not next week as I am on call and may have to answer the phone multiple times.

If somebody held a gun to my head and told me I had to go drink beer and eat german food next wed, I would, but it would just mean the quality of care towards our young people in need may be reduced that evening, and responses like "follow the safety plan and implement TCI measures" may subsequently drop to "tell him to garn getfarkd"

Bugger! I've been sprung! Hi Dan! action-smiley-069.gif

Just so you all know; my magical disappearing trick wasn't really by choice. I'm glad to be home again (although the skyline wasn't so happy about being left in the garage for 3 months)... What have I missed?

Also potential +1 for german club.

I was sent to the UK again (its almost becoming an annual summer migration for me!). However, they only gave me a few weeks heads-up so madly prepping for the trip displaced my thursday night ikescream =/

    • The car/ECU will have all the sensor that it needs and expect to have. I think i do not have to explain to you how the Link is way better specialy if you have swapped engine   I just do not want to deal with any "problems" cuz i have only Nistune which i learned is not that great and in my case cant even deal with that speed problem (Link can) And of course it will be way more easier to tune and diagnose and safe. And for the ECU/speed problem...i dont know.
    • Per Mark Roberts of Sonictune: Mark Robert Author At this time, no. No ETA either 2016-17 models. You will be able to purchase and install a 2018.5+ TCU though   TCU purchasing and pricing info! As we near the release of TCU tuning, I am going to answer some questions I get asked often.   What do I need for TCU tuning? At this time, you will need a 2018.5+ TCU to be able to tune. If you have a 2016-to early 2018, you will need to replace your TCU with the newer version. One good way to know if your TCU is good is if you have auto upshift in manual mode in 1st gear around 6500 rpms. If your manual 1st gear goes to 7k rpm and will hit the rev limiter unless you shift, you have the older TCU.   Why do I need to buy another ecu license/phone flash if I already have it on my ECU tune? The TCU is its own computer module. It is completely separate from the ECU. Because of this, you will be required to purchase a TCU license and, if your tuner has it, the phone flash license required to tune it via phone/bluetooth.   Do I need TCU tuning? TCU tuning is NOT required. However, the faster your setup, the more it will assist in track and dragy time consistency.   If I’m ECU tuned by (tuner A) can I get my TCU tuned by (Tuner ? Yes, since it’s a different module and a completely separate flash, you can have two different tuners. However, it is highly recommend that you have both tuned by the same tuner. For me, my TCU tuning will directly complement my ECU tuning style and features and running my ECU and another TCU or vice versa MIGHT cause some issues. At this time and for the foreseeable future, I will only be tuning my current ECU tuned customers TCUs.     I have a SYVECS AWD controller. Do I still need it? Yes! The AWD controllers main job is to control your AWD system. However, with TCU tuning, you will no longer need the auto-shift function as that will be done through the TCU. The AWD controller will still be very beneficial for racers looking to maximize traction on the launch.     Shift schedule changes: holding gears longer at lower pedal input as well as max shift rpm changes. Please note, the new ECU race rom coming out will address 90% of the shitty drivability issues these cars have through custom maps from myself and Racebox—as well as others I am sure.   Increase shift speeds: as seen in the videos I’ve been posting, the TCU shifts much faster once tuned.   Increased shift pressures: as also seen in the videos, much firmer full throttle shifts.

    • The fancy pants red shock tower brace is finally incoming from MX5 Mania, getting it shipped from 'Merica has been a long and problematic process, and GWR, the 'Merican supplier will not ship directly to consumers outside of the US, Mania basically had to order a heap of them, the colour choice was silver, or red, and we all know anything red adds 5 killerwasps of dynotorques..... Whilst it does fit over a 2.5, and I've seen a few photos and videos of it being installed and fitting, google also says it might get real close to the FAB9 intake front runner, people in the US says it does fit with the FAB9 intake, except for one person who said it slightly touched.......so there is that.....LOL..... As it seems that I am the first in AU to have this combination of parts there's no local knowledge about fitment, so I'm just a willing guinea pig in this endeavour, I'll cross my fingers and toes and hope for the best In other news, I ordered stuff from China  on the same day I ordered the 23° silicone bend from Victoria, the stuff from China arrived a day ago, the 23° silicone bend is still travelling around Australia thanks to Australia Post, and "may" be here next week
    • Very good news...I contacted Racebox about it last night. My car is a 2016 so remains to be seen if it is compatible, requires a TCU swap, or is impossible.
