anyone get a text a couple of days ago goign on about autotune being on tv and using their services

autotune? there was a segment on todaytonight about ultratune which scammed some people. They did a test where they disconnected an injector plug to create a miss and then took the car to a bunch of mechanics. The ultratunes they took them to slugged them $400-$500 to fix the problem lol

Some places like kmart auto just plugged back the plug and free of charge.

Found it all lols

fkn why does meguires, autoglym etc release so many different types of polishes and waxes. Not only that, they all have stupid names and vague descriptions and you can only know how good they are after you use them.

2 coats of Meguires SwirlX and a coat of Autoglym Super resin polish with a buffer and it barely cut anything. Need moar cutting powar.

Use the inbuilt media player to play DivX etc over NFS and SAMBA shares.

Fix the Media Player bug in all Sammy's where the controls don't fit on the screen.

Add aspect ratios (Sammy's don't allow you to play mvoies off USB/network as anything other than Original and Fit)

Change subtitle colour and location.

Access service menu's (so you can fine tune picture and audio signal sync etc)

hmmmm... mine will be hooked up to a PS3 or 360 so fitting to the screen wont be an issue. Most of the movies and tv shows i have are either 720 or 1080p anyway.

still doesnt seem to be worth the risk.

around the 200 mark.. but chef's dont get OT

yeah my aunty was a head chef for many years... she worked some very long hours... was crazy. She was crazy too lol like most chefs i suppose

Between 10k and 11k according to the ATOs tax calculator, assuming a 40 hour week that's about $40 an hour for each hour worked

sounds about right... pretty sure his normal take home would be in the 3.5 - 4k range. We work 37.5 hour weeks.

back in the day when i used to wash n polish my cars i'd use Autoglym 03B Fine Abrasive to cut (using a variable 600 to 1200rpm polisher, wet polisher if you can afford it) then wax with mothers carnauba wax. low rpm mostly so as not to burn the clearcoats, and constantly mist with water... better if you have a lackey to mist for you.

no need to cut that often, i do it once a year. claybar instead before waxing if you're not cutting.

Well i now have 0 points got done for 92kmp/h in a 80 zone and not having a licence on me.

My own fault really i could of got done for more but the cop was nice even said sorry for ruining your day [thanks :)]

i could of got done for No seatbelt, no licence, no p plates, and over the speed limit. if i wasn't driving the misses car i would of only got done for over the speed limit :D i keep licence and p plates in my car.

Oh well only got myself to blame sooooo what are the options for me now do i have to start riding my bike to work or am i able to drive on 0 points ?

i shall make a thread claiming that the cops are stupid and are complete dickheads and they shouldn't of fined me and what not (seems to be the going trend on here)

Anyone know if r33 series 2 coilpacks are the same as r34 neo coilpacks?

do you mean 1996 to 1997 r33 series 2

or late 1997 to early 1998 series 2?

1997 to 1998 from memory may have ER34 coilpacks anyway

ie the plugs and loom is a bit different

but 1996 to 1997 won't fit

If you've got an external HDD you can just plug that into the USB slot...

Hmm yea mines a 96. Oh well looks like my brother can buy some splitfires now lol

Aren't you just a data entry guy there? Hardly IT

Nah, I'm moving up in the company brother :) The boss is very pleased with my work... so gave me a pay rise from $15 to $20 :ermm:

I'm hoping it will go up when I hit 21. Doubt it though.

I hope that's sarcasm.

exactly... cbf with a media centre when the TV can read it and process it without having to use HDMI cables etc. it plays full 720p and 1080p rips.

At the moment I just throw TV shows/movies onto a USB stick and watch em off that, but when I move out and set it all up properly I'll take the 1TB HDD off my PC which has all my shows/movies on it anyway, and hook it up to the TV permanently..

    • So, I put my boat on a boat. First of all, I'm going to come out and say it. Why is Tasmania not considered a holy goal, an apex that all road-legal modified cars go to, to experience? This place is an absolute wonderland of titanic proportions. If people are already getting club runs for once in a lifetime 30 person cruises to Tassy then I've never seemed to see it. It is like someone replaced the entire place with an idyllic wonderland for cars, and all of the people living there with paid actors who are kind, humble, and friendly. Dear god. After doing a lap of almost all of the place I've found that it's a great way to find out all of the little things that the car isn't doing quite right and a great way to figure it all out. All in all, I drove for 4 hours a day for a week and nothing broke. I didn't even need to open the engine bay. This is by all means a great success, but it has left me with a list of things to potentially address. I also now have a 3D printed wheel fitment tool which annoyingly hasn't got any threads in it to actually assemble it. I might be able to tape it together to check the sizing I actually want to use, but it'll likely involving pulling the shocks out to properly measure travel at least at the front, and probably raise the car while I'm at it, at least in the rear. I scraped on quite a few things and I'm not sure how else to go about it. I was taking anything with a bump at what felt like 89 degree angles. And address those 10 other tasks. And wash the car. God damn it is dirty. And somehow, the weather was perfect the entire time - And because I was on the top of Mt Wellington it turns out it was very much about to freeze up there. I did something I typically never do and took some photos up there in what must have been -10 and the foggy felt like suspended ice, rather than mere fog. If you own a car in Australia, you owe it to yourself to do it.
    • Damn that was hilarious, and a bit embarrassing for skylines in general 😂 vintage car life ey. That R33 really stomped. Pretty entertaining stuff
    • Hi, I have a r32 gtr transmission. Does any of you guys have an idea how much power it will hold with the billet center plate and stock gearset? At what power level and use did yours brake with or without billet plate? Thanks, Oystein Lovik
    • Saw this replica police car based on a Mitsubishi Starion XX parked next to a 'police box' (it's literally a box) in Hirohata, Himeji City in Hyogo prefecture the other day. It's owned by Morii-san who is a local Mitsubishi Starion enthusiast. According to a local radio station blog post, he always wanted to make a police car himself based on ones he saw in his favourite Manga comics.  As it's illegal to modify a car to look like a police car and drive on the road, Morii-san tried many times to get permission from Aboshi police station headquarters nearby. They refused initially by after they got tired of that they granted him permission. However, the car can only be displayed on private property and obviously can't be registered as long as the police livery is present. The car was completed at a cost of 1.5 million yen (US$ 10,000) in addition to the car cost. A location was chosen outside Hirohata Police box where the car can easily been seen from the street. Morii-san has two other Starion road cars, both widebody GSR-VRs.
