Seriously, don't know where you guys are getting ripped off for $30 filters?!

Picked one up for precisely (note how accurate I'm being here) $16.95 and installed it in the dark in the carpark where my other one seemed to have died.

OP this should be in between easy and mind-bogglingly easy, depending on how much stuff you've got in your engine bay cluttering it up.

You're still going to pay someone?

This is depressing.

I remember a while ago, a guy on here had a window smashed, payed like $80 for the glass, and another $50 to fit it? something like that ... literally, 5 mins, in and out, tops...dunno how the f**k people justify spendings like that..

5 minutes to remove the broken glass and fit a new one!??!?

Dude if you can do that I can get you a job as a fitter anytime! In an 8 hour day I'll get 10-15 glasses done, depending on the jobs.

My boss will be stoked if you can punch out 96 jobs a day!

Less than 3 minutes!?

Are we using primers here? You're also assuming the guy has:

Olfa knife and blade

Glass primer

Body primer

Urethane gun

Urethane

You couldn't buy that lot for less than $50, and even if you could, you're assuming he's willing to do a job he may have never attempted

What I'm trying to say dude, is that you should get your boyfriend to change your fuel filter for you :D

He has a Boyfriend or u mean a Friend Boy??? Or he's Gay? Or just too gay to do it himself??

I attempted to do it b4.. not hard my Dad helped me.. 220bux def gettin ripped off unless u like that :)

Wrong thread mayhaps?

I am thoroughly convinced that you read through the entire thread to focus on if he has a boyfriend or if he's gay or not.

Fuel filters are piss-easy. Period. Unless they're intanks or something retarded like a late-model commodore with their weird locking clip things. By which you need Norma tools available, from your friendly neighbourhood Snap-On man (Ours is Chris Lovell).

I move for the thread to be closed because it makes WA sound like they've got 4 extra chromosomes.

    • From my youth: GTi-R clutch change is a massive pain. The gearboxes are fragile? But the car is super cool and I want one 😢 
    • Remember this is 1988 tech.
    • Driveline vibration is resolved. I ended up loosening all my engine mount and trans mount bolts, giving it a good shake then retightening everything and it's gone... Let's just say I was surprised that fixed it.  I've been happily driving it around again but unfortunately put zero time into my direct port/constant pressure WMI setup. I'm on vacation next week, so I'll try and finalize it then.  On a different note, I spent all week fuel/ignition mapping 2x 216L V16 engines. Turbo's were burning glycol and we swapped them out for larger units. We also had planned emissions testing on site, so I figured I'd be there the same week to use their instrumentation and massage any emissions issues out if needed. This was a first for me. Fuel management is similar in certain ways to automotive (i.e air density as load variable) but very different in others. It's all PLC based and AFR's are controlled by air and not fuel. They use a control valve between the turbo and air manifold to control pressure which in turn controls AFR's. Due to this, target AFR tables supplied by the OEM are in pressures and not mass which really through me off. They use air pressure vs fuel pressure tables. I also relied on an O2 concentration sensor the emissions team had in the exhaust. Ignition timing was also all over the place and we were losing a fair bit of power. They're now happily sitting at 16-40BTDC depending on load. We were making about 1600kw at 900rpm at 90% load. Engines were running a lot smoother as well.    
    • heh, aint no R32 ever meeting modern targa cage rules unless the driver is veeeery short OP, good luck with the sale, since its already in the land of freedom I'm sure you will find a good buyer.
    • meh, it was a good video, clear about the issue and how he dealt with it. A bit heavy on the RTV and very brave to put an RB in anything without rebuilding it first, but otherwise I thought it was good Dose, I'm not sure that having the pickup forward is a big issue; yes of course the oil could shift under brakes but the sump should never be empty enough for that to be a problem (unless you also have a higher volume oil pump, and that oil can't return from the head to the sump quickly enough)
