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.

    • just an update to this, poor man pays twice  Tried sanding down the pulleys but it didnt do the trick. Chucked another second hand alternator in the na car which I got for free off my mate and its fixed the squelling. Must have been unlucky with the bearings.    As for my turbo car, I managed to pick up a cwc rb alternator conversion bracket + LS alternator for 250 off marketplace, looked to be in really good nick. Installed it , started the car and its not charging the battery.... ( Im not good with auto elec stuff so im not sure if this was all I needed to do but I verified such by using a multimeter on the battery when the engine was running and I was only getting 12.2v )   I had to modify the earth strap for the new LS alternator , factory earth strap was a 10mm bolt which did not fit the bolt on the LS alternator which was double the size so I cut it off , went to repco bought some ring terminals that fit, crimped it onto the old earth strap and bolted it up to the alternator , started the car and same issue. Ran like shit and was reading 12.2 at the battery.  For a "plug and play" advertised kit thats not very plug and play but alas.  My question is , am I missing something ? Ive been reading that some people recommend upgrading the stock 80 amp alternator fuse to a 140 amp but I dont see how that would stop the alternator charging especially at idle not under load.  Regardless ive pulled it out and am going to get it bench tested by an auto elec tomorrow but it would be handy to know if ive missed something silly or have done something wrong.   
    • My wild guess is that you have popped off an intake pipe....check all of the hoses between the turbo and the throttle for splits or loose clamps.
    • Awesome, thanks for sharing!
    • To provide more specific help, more information is needed. What Android screen? What is its wiring diagram? Does the car's wiring have power at any required BAT and ACC wires, and is the loom's earth good?
    • So, now all you need to do is connect the 2 or 3x 12v feeds into the unit to permanent 12v, ACC 12V and IGN 12V that you can find in the spot behind the stereo, and the earth, and then it will switch on with the car.
