just added sau to the cacti instance at work and set it to graph http and tcp response times.... i'll send you some results tomorrow if you like.

***scratch that****

looks like i have proxy issues and cant get cacti to reach it... might take me a day to fix it.

yeah as far as I can tell, it takes a long time to respond between 10am and 12am, the data eventually comes through, so I'm guessing its a database/software issue than a connectivity issue.

good to see its not just me, i was beginning to lose my shite @ our server setup... thinking it was at fault :(

It really is a random thing, it went all slow for me about 5mins ago and its late.

i get it every time i load SAU. page will be blank and say loading for about 30sec when it use to load straight away. surfing through threads is alright. lil laggy but not too bad just the start up thats bad for me

I'm surprised no one has mentioned this...

it seems to happen around 4:30 on the dot... for me, it happens at other times too, but I am using a proxy to get here as work has blocked it but won't admit it... so it could be a number of things. But every afternoon, around 4:30, I leave SAU cause it doesn't respong for some time...

Christian, if you don't mind me asking, what kind of costs do you incur hosting this website? And what kind of traffic does it normally see? A PM is fine if you like.

I recommend all the people complaining about the lag to please donate money to SAU. Australian servers cost a lot more than american servers and thats the only solution to get everyone quick page loads.

Open up your wallets people! Barely anyone who posted in here have a 'donated' tag under their avatar.

ok post 2.0 (first one got lost after i hit the add reply button and the site crashed)

it took me 3 mins to get into this thread last time, and took me 5 mins this time. the site keeps coming up with a notice saying that the connection was reset. it hasn't been getting really bad. i've had it happening all day at work and it's even worse tonight. it is completely random. i opened up a few windows today (about 6 i think) and only 1 of them loaded, the rest crashed, and then the one that did open crashed when i tried to submit a post. yesterday the site only had a few downtimes, but today i'd say i've had it crash 4 or 5 times an hour. sometimes (like at the moment) it will crash, then come good, then crash again within 20 seconds of coming good again. over the last few days it was just hanging and taking ages to load but today it has been coming up with the error i said before about the connection being reset. i did have 1 UPS error or whetever it's called pop up, and i've also had some pages load with a shortened web address at the top of the page in the title box thingy. so at the moment this page has "site hard to load? - skylines australia - mozilla firefox" but a few times it's had the web address in there. also sometimes tonight when it has crashed and i've hit refresh it's come up with a box asking me if i want to save a file or open it and asking what program to open it with. the file usually says the thread name and has the file type .info (i think).

ok, lets try this again

*crosses fingers and hits add reply after copying this reply incase i need to post it again

    • Update 3: Hi all It's been a while. Quite a lot of things happened in the meantime, among other things the car is (almost) back together and ready to be started again. Things that I fixed or changed: Full turbo removal, fitting back the OEM turbo oil hardlines. Had to do quite a bit of research and parts shopping to get every last piece that I need and make it work with the GT2860 turbos, but it does work and is not hard to do. Proves that the previous owner(s) just did not want to. While I was there I set the preload for the wastegates to 0,9bar to hopefully make it easier for the tuner to hit the 370hp I need for the legal inspections that will follow later on. Boost can always go up if necessary. Fitted a AN10 line from the catch can to the intake hose to make the catchcan and hopefully the cam covers a slight vacuum to have less restrictive oil returns from the head and not have mud build up as harshly in the lines and catch can. Removed the entire front interior just shy of the dashboard itself to clean up some of the absolutely horrendous wiring, (hopefully) fix the bumpy tacho and put in LED bulbs while I was there. Also put in bulbs where there was none before, like the airbag one. I also used that chance to remove the LED rpm gauge on the steering column, which was also wired in absolute horror show fashion. Moved the 4in1 Prosport gauge from sitting in front of the OEM oil pressure gauge to the center console vents, I used a 3D printed vent piece to hold that gauge there. The HKB steering wheel boss was likely on incorrectly as I sometimes noticed the indicator reset being uneven for left vs. right. In the meantime also installed an airbag delete resistor, as one should. Installed Cube Speed premium short shifter. Feels pretty nice, hope it'll work great too when I actually get to drive. Also put on a fancy Dragon Ball shift knob, cause why not. My buddy was kind enough to weld the rust hole in the back, it was basically rusted through in the lowermost corner of the passenger side trunk area where the wheel arch, trunk panel and rear quarter all meet. Obviously there is still a lot of crustiness in various areas but as long as it's not rusted out I'll just treat and isolate the corrosion and pretend it's not there. Also had to put down a new ground wire for the rear subframe as the original one was BARELY there. Probably a bit controversial depending on who you ask about this... but I ended up just covering the crack in the side of the engine block, the one above the oil feed, with JB Weld. I used a generous amount and roughed up the whole area with a Dremel before, so I hope this will hold the coolant where it should be for the foreseeable future. Did a cam cover gasket job as the half moons were a bit leaky, and there too one could see the people who worked on this car before me were absolute tools. The same half moons were probably used like 3 times without even cleaning the old RTV off. Dremeled out the inside of the flange where the turbine housing mates onto the exhaust manifolds so the diameter matches, as the OEM exhaust manifolds are even narrower than the turbine housings as we all know. Even if this doesn't do much, I had them out anyways, so can't harm. Ideally one would port-match both the turbo and the manifold to the gasket size but I really didn't feel up to disassembling the turbine housings. Wrapped turbo outlet dumps in heat wrap band. Will do the frontpipe again as well as now the oil leak which promted me to tear apart half the engine in the first place is hopefully fixed. Fitted an ATI super damper to get rid of the worn old harmonic balancer. Surely one of the easiest and most worth to do mods. But torquing that ARP bolt to spec was a bitch without being able to lock the flywheel. Did some minor adjustments in the ECU tables to change some things I didn't like, like the launch control that was ALWAYS active. Treated rusty spots and surface corrosion on places I could get to and on many spots under the car, not pretty or ideal but good enough for now. Removed the N1 rear spats and the carbon surrounding for the tailpipe to put them back on with new adhesive as the old one was lifting in many spots, not pretty. Took out the passenger rear lamp housing... what do you know. Amateur work screwed me again here as they were glued in hard and removing it took a lot of force, so I broke one of the housing bolts off. And when removing the adhesive from the chassis the paint came right off too. Thankfully all the damaged area won't be visible later, but whoever did the very limited bodywork on this car needs to have their limbs chopped off piece by piece.   Quite a list if I do say so myself, but a lot of time was spent just discovering new shit that is wrong with the car and finding a solution or parts to fix it. My last problem that I now have the headache of dealing with is that the exhaust studs on the turbo outlets are M10x1.25 threaded, but the previous owner already put on regular M10 nuts so the threads are... weird. I only found this out the hard way. So now I will just try if I can in any way fit the front pipe regardless, if not I'll have to redo the studs with the turbos installed. Lesson learned for the future: Redo ALL studs you put your hands on, especially if they are old and the previous owners were inept maniacs. Thanks for reading if you did, will update when the engine runs again. Hope nothing breaks or leaks and I can do a test drive.
    • No those pads are DBA too  but they have colors too. I look at the and imo the green "street" are the best.
    • I’m not sure what happened I told them about sonic tunes free OTS tune and the next the I know .. I was booted..   To funny 
    • Yea - I mean I've seen my fuel pump which is decades old and uh, while I'm not saying this with real knowledge... but I sure get the ick at using anything in the fuel system that produced the state of that pump. Many years ago I went through multiple pumps (and strainers) before I dropped the tank to clean it out with extreme violence. I'm talking the car would do maybe 50km before coming to a halt, which resulted in me cleaning out the filter with some brake cleaner and going on my way. None of my stuff ever looked like what came out of your fuel tank. I don't think I'd be happy with it unless every single component was replaced (or at least checked/cleaned/confirmed to be clean here).
    • I'm not going to recommend an EBC pad. I don't like them. Just about anything else would suit me better. I've been using Intima pads for a while now.
