Do they price match Option1 like the adelaide tyrepower on Kuhmos?

Customer service sucks at Adeliade tyrepower - 2 days called in a row, he said he'll check with his Kuhmo provider and then get back to me... Both days he didnt call.. Grrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrr I hate it when people dont go through with promises

was about to say it, but dave beat me to it

yeah, theyre a bit average recently. sort of annoying. but theyve had one bloke quit, and anothers taking time off for his wedding, so theyre a little undermanned. if you havent got your quote by tomorrow, im heading down there for some prices for someone else, so ill quote up yours aswell. 235/45's yeah?

more than a lil undermanned dave, terry and sharon are gone as well as troy, so its basically adam and chris running the show LOL. was talkin to chris today and they've been flat out all week

things SHOULD return to normal in the next week or so. ive had cases like that before, where it takes some time for them to get back to you. Plenty of other businesses have done that, some dont even ring you back as promised (especially getting quotes on 400 bucks worth of gauges)

Thanks Andrew (Nightcrawler) for the ticket to the Clipsal today. Had a great time and thought you guys might appreciate some of the pics.

Apparently there were cars there as well...

No worries David, glad you enjoyed the day. :blush:

I have managed to sell all of the extra 4 tickets for tomorrow, so just have 1 spare Gold Pit Entry ticket (a nice seat) for Sunday left for $50 if anyone knows anyone. General admission normally costs $85 fyi, so even if you just buy it to get entry to the track it is a great deal.

hey david after carful viewing of your pics the fujitsu girl is the prettyest one of them all

I agree but she didn't seem all that bright as she kept stuffing up the spiel they had been instructed to tell everyone. Not that I would hold that against her - maybe she was nervous in my presence :blush:

I quite liked the Norton's girl as well, a better height match too although the Fujitsu girl was wearing FMBs with a lot of heel.

I took a photo of Andrew with 3 of the Fujitsu girls that he posted in Facebook that were probably the best trio we encountered all day. There were a couple of promo girls that we bypassed as ... well... they looked a bit... um... skanky.

Ive heard some pretty horrific stories about some of those promo girls from people... more than once...

anyway, the photo with the JD girls, the one on the left looks like someone I went to school with.

Actually I give kudos to the girls.

They are working all day, usually in heels, with guys all day asking to have photos taken with them which they dutifully do and smile in. Some of these guys would be trying to cop a feel or squeeze something that doesn't belong to them. Andrew, Nick and I did the promo girl cruise about 3pm and you could tell quite a few of them were pretty tired but they were all friendly and all smiled for us.

Of course they get paid good $ as well so that helps but it would be a long, hot day with a bunch off strangers touching you all day and leering from a distance.

Pretty sure the JD girl on the far left used to work at (maybe still does?) the Modbury Plaza Hotel

so, anyone not going to the race today that has a bit of auto elec knowledge want to help me out? need to suss out my spotties badly, sick of not having them (especially after drowning my headlights last weekend and losing some of the reflector LOL). from what ive checked of the wiring its all good, someone did mention in passing that where im getting the trigger from may not be triggering the relay quick enough, so its popping the fuse instead

ive got a house elec job to do around lunchtime, so pretty much after that im available. will even come to you :blush:

Does anyone know how or if it's possible to go on the PSN with mobile wireless Broadband (that little dongle thingo)

I went to change my network settings to wireless but need a WEP code which I dont know how to get.

Wanting to play Battlefield Bad Company 2 online pretty bad! haha

HELP PLEASE!

a 3G dongle? not by plugging it directly in to a playstation. You would need to share it over an existing wired/wireless network and even then the 3G connection will be way too laggy to do any gaming.

Yes and No

Yes - You will need a Aximcom 3G router or Billion Modem Router, price will be ~$250-$350. 3G dongle shall plug into these devices and then hand out the signal either via Ethernet or Wireless. The WEP code is for Wireless networking - between pc's.

No - Plugging the device into the PS3 will not do anything, as the device needs a program to run correctly, and it is windows based, where as the PS3 is...Sony based :( .

    • GCG is a good company, they're a major distributor for Garrett in Japan as well.
    • Nah, OEM washer bottle and brake fluid reservoirs are fine I don't know what it is with the plastic that Mazda used, some plastics, like the washer bottle and brake fluid res are fine, and still look new after 20 years use, where as the coolant expansion tank, and PS reservoir, that I replaced with new OEM items when I first got the car, turned yellow and started getting brittle a few years later If the dirty yellow stained plastics didn't trigger me there wouldn't be an issue, but they did, much like the battery bracket....... Meh As for going back to work full time to support car stuff, nope, why, because I own a Mazda NC MX5, not a Nissan R series Skyline 🤣
    • I've never heard of CJ-motor, so can't advise you on them. I'd just go straight to GCG for a GCG highflow though. Seems no point to use a middleman. I'm somewhat surprised that the price on the CJ site is lower than the GCG retail price. Even though CJ would get a discount of some sort, you would hardly expect them to give up so much margin. Maybe the price is out of date? Having said that "I'd go to GCG"...when I did my highflow, I went to Hypergear. I did this https://hypergearturbos.com/product/rb25dethighflow/#tab-dyno-results with the R34 OP6 450HP profile. With the BB centre (extra $400) and intially with the standard boost actuator, but I eventually got him to send me the high pressure one when I got to the point of being able to actually use it. Ends up costing the same sort of money as the GCG highflow, but this is, of course, the turbo that I KNOW has a shorter length core and so moves the comp cover rearwards. The GCG apparently doesn't do that. My mechanic also swears by the GCG highflow, given that we have another turbo rebuilder who does something essentialy the same as theirs, using Garrett wheels. He says it stands up at really low revs and makes good power. I haven't pushed my HG highflow past ~240-250rwkW yet (should have a little more in it, but unclear how much) and it does have a fairly gentle boost ramp. OK, it's much better now that I have gotten my boost controller tuned up on it.  A lot of my earlier unhappiness was because I couldn't keep the wastegate flap as closed as it needed to be (including some mechanical issues). I'd still prefer it to boost up nearly as quickly as the stocker, and it certainly a bit slower than that. So maybe the GCG one is worth the first look (for you).
    • Ok thanks 🙂 I will higly consider this. Any "known" company for a good reviews and experience to send that off? Is that CJ-motor good one? Or go straight to GCG site? I need to use VPN to even find some of those "shops" let alone access them 🙂 
    • You can literally put in as much WMI as it takes to quench the combustion totally (and then back it off a little, obviously), and it will keep making more and more power. The power comes from the cooling effect of the water (and the meth) and the extra fuel (the meth, which also has massive octane). It is effectively exactly like running E85. One might be slightly better than the other, but they are damn close. But with either you can lean on the boost or the timing (or both) waaaay more than with just petrol and the results are similar. Here's the first thing I googled for an anecdotal bit of evidence. Can't access the attachment without being a gold member, but it is there for the getting if able to, or searched up elsewise perhaps. https://www.hpacademy.com/forum/general-tuning-discussion/show/wmi-vs-e85/
