Just finished washing the mini and the skyline just so I could spend most of the time standing under the hose. Was good while it lasted, might be a bit of a storm coming though, that might cool it down a bit. Time for another cold shower I think.

Was just at Dicky Beach, Lifeguards came over the loud speaker "theres a severe storm warning" everybody leaves likes a cyclones about to hit!

10 mins later, the same warning but with "hail warning", oh shit me grabs the missus and runs to the line and an awaitng vacant garage.

90 minutes later, not a drop... Ahhhh!

Yep computers don't like heat.

The large amount of suposedly faulty computers I have seen in the last few days, have been from people trying to use them in an un-airconditioned offices or at home in temperatures close to fifty degrees (90 degrees inside the tower) and then wondering why their computer was shutting down by itself.

Heat is the mortal enemy of all electrical equipment.

My computer ran all weekend constantly ..... What a machine :D

My car on the other hand did 800k's so we could sit in the airconditioned comfort :D

*phew* lost this thread for a moment.. thought it might have been deleted :D

yeah, my computer is holding up.. my car too :D even better. Computers are cheap these days fortunately, and power supplies, etc can be replaced for a few bucks. Saturday i did 200km in 41 degree or so heat.. giving it quite a bit of stick with darrin and strutto on the highways. Still holds a bit of power. Go the intercooler!

    • If you mean the alarm immobiliser; theyre internal to the alarm itself which makes that difficult; I couldnt even see where he put it; its not in the same place as last time; but with all black wiring it might be very challenging to trace  I had someone turn the key for me as I know it only primes for a couple of seconds As my post above; I am getting no voltage to the pump at all; but I am testing continuity of the power line (SB) from the pump plug to the relay fine. As well as the negative from the pump plug to a 12V constant.    Yeah; he blammed the no start on a bad battery; said I needed to get a new battery and it'll start. Turns out the battery drained because the tail lights had been on for half the day during the install (the rubber cushion on the brake switch gave out while he was testing it as I have a picture of the car from that morning with the tail lights off..i've replaced that). The battery was turning over the engine just fine for a long time; but got low since lights were draining it so it was too low to test a start after he finished. I bought a new one on his advice...$250 wasted. My original battery charged up just fine and is healthy.    It was running perfectly fine when I messed up the old alarm (programmed out the remotes). He couldnt start it after removing the old alarm; my assumption is that when he unhooked it; he didnt bridge the circuit back when trying to start it. Its always been perfectly fine. The ECU swap and pump were 2 years ago. It's never missed a beat in that time. 
    • This is a big issue for me without the diff. I just have zero drive from the passenger side when drivers side has no traction. Bec's parents place has a crazy steep driveway with odd camber and I have never been able to get up. My bro-in-law's 130i with an (unknown brand) LSD gets up fine as does their dad's Hiace. My car stays at the bottom. We have other odd camber roads around here as we're elevated a bit and if it's raining I can get totally stuck around some hairpins. 
    • Yeah, I am super excited for this.
    • Was the car running before he touched the car?
