when i lived down in melb for a few yrs I loved stumbling home through prahran and getting a lamb on chapel or malvern in the wee hours... now i have uncle tonys.. wtf processed crap?

is there a real souv shop in brisbane?

Souv shop, nah I reckon not.

Hey we musta bin neighbours, I lived at 28 Chapel St, opposite Windsor rail station, just down from Dandenong Rd, then moved toArmadale near Malvern and Orrong. Sheet that was back in late 60's to late 70's

WTF everyone is saying, what are all these strange words, wha do they mean, it's like another langwich, used to knock aroun with a few rought nuts, bloke a few years older than me ended up cuttin his ears off in the lockup, he got famous, but never forgot the kids in the commision flats area in Prahran!

You lot are just spoiled with the density of awesome food joints, I couldn't believe it when I was in Melbourne. I saw probably a dozen gourmet pizza shops on a short walk along the main drag in Kew, lol

Anyway I don't go for chicken burgers much so I can't really tell you where is and isn't good for them, but there are some decent food places around without having to go to a "proper" restaurant.

Thai Ginger at North Lakes rocks the shit, and is well worth the drive even if you're not in the area. In my opinion it beats the Royal Thai Orchid so hard that Chris Brown would be proud.

At Chermside shopping centre there's a little Indian place in one of the food courts, the quality of the food is surprisingly good and they only seem to use chicken breast in their chicken dishes. If I go there I normally grab the Tikka Masala.

Nandos is always a winner, there's quite a few around and there seems to be new ones popping up every now and then.

There's a handful of good places in and around Park Rd in Milton, go for a look and poke your head into a few.

Sizzling Mongolian at St Lucia/Toowong is very nice, quite a different experience too.

There are some nice places in West End too, but also some not-so-great ones that try to hitch a ride with the eyeroll-inducing self-proclaimed "chic" status of the suburb. There are still some gems though, I can't remember its name but there's a little sandwich bar about half-way along Montague Rd that makes really good ham and salad sandwiches. There's a cafe not too far from there which I avoid, it's exxy and the food quality varies quite a lot. A bit further up the road there's another sandwich bar (done up to look like a cottage I think) that does decent sandwiches too.

If you want a pub meal there's plenty around, the Morrison at the Gabba isn't bad, the Broadway's $10 cook-your-own steaks are good and their burgers are top notch. The Irish pub at Kallangur puts on a good feed, the Brekky Creek Hotel, the Norman... there are plenty around.

lol melbourne is king of the privately owned pizza shops. $5.50 large pizza's all day every day, and they're proper large too, none of this domino's shit. In fact I doubt anyone orders pizza from Domino's, Pizza hut or even Eagle boys these days.

    • Which solenoid? Why was it changed? Again, why was this done? ...well, these wear..but ultimately, why was it changed? Did you reset the idle voltage level after fitment? I'm just a tad confused ~ the flash code doesn't allude to these items being faulty, so in my mind the only reason to change these things, would be some drive-ability issue....and if that's the case, what was the problem? Those questions aside, check if the dropping resistor is OK ...should be 11~14 ohms (TCU doesn't throw a flash code for this) ~ also, these TCU designs have full time power (to keep fault code RAM alive), and I think that'll throw a logic code (as opposed to the 10 hardware codes), if that power is missing (or the ram has gone bad in the TCU, which you can check..but that's another story here perhaps).
    • Question for people who "know stuff" I am looking at doing the new intake like the one in the picture (the pictured is designed for the OEM TB and intake plenum), this design has the filter behind the front bar, but, the filter sits where the OEM duct heads into the front bar, and the standard aperture when the OEM ducting is removed allows the filter to pulled back out of the front bar into the engine bay for servicing, a simple blanking plate is used to seal the aperture behind the filter This will require a 45° silicone hose from the TB, like the alloy pipe that is currently there, to another 45° silicone hose to get a straight run to the aperture in the front bar Question: how will it effect the tune if I move the MAF about 100-150mm forward, the red is around where my MAF is currently, and the green would be where it would end up Like this This is the hole the filter goes through  Ends up like this LOL..Cheers    
    • Despite the level up question, actually I do know what that is....it is a pressure sender wire.  So check out around the oil filter for an oil pressure sender, or maybe fuel pressure near the filter or on the engine. Possibly but less likely coolant pressure sensor because they tend to be combined temp/pressure senders if you have one. Could also be brake pressure (in a brake line somewhere pre ABS) but maybe I'm the only one that has that on a skyline.
    • Pull codes via the self-diagnosis procedure. As far as I can tell this is just a sign of transmission issues but not a code unto itself.
    • Hi All, putting the engine back together and everything is perfect except have this plug left over.. any ideas what it is for and where it goes? Is on cold side under the intake plenum *note not a stock plug, as everything has been modified Cheers
