I've found a subtitling program that I think is simple enough for me to use and will also work with YouTube. I've added half the subtitles to the S'n'S vid so if you can check it out and let me know what you think. I'll do the rest when I've had a little sleep and haven't been drinking as much.

Also. Feel free to go back and transcribe any of the older videos into a text file and then I'll add them to the vids. I'll even give you credit in there for helping out. :thumbsup:

Hey Laith,

The captioning looks good but I've noticed spelling mistake there and there not sure if it's what they said or what you hear when you're bit drunk (or whatever!). Was it hard to do?

How do I do transcribe older videos into text file, PM me if it's easier.

It was about 1am last night when I sat down and started working on them. I've never been very good at spelling. So drinking doesn't help. And it was late. I watched it back and realised that I did miss a few words, but I was also dropping out all the "umms" and "arrs".

Just any text file will do. Then I'll paste it into the subtitling program that formats all the display commands and forms it into a proper Closed Captioning file that I then upload to YouTube.

The program I'm using plays the video in 4 second blocks and loops them over and over until you're ready to move onto the next 4 seconds. When a word or an "umm" is cut in half it was a little hard to tell if that was the word or not.

In the end it's a first attempt and I'm happy with the way it came out. Now I just have to go back and finish it off and correct the spelling and other mistakes.

nice vids, but can i choose the songs next time

there terrible haha

but besides that top vids

Sure... ...I'll take any suggestions for music... ...But it all has to be copyright free... ...I got permission from the band to use their music... ...And their management got them the rights to do the "Till the World Ends" cover...

The other thing is... ...The music I've used in the other videos is all copyright free... ...But someone keeps flagging them saying that the music breaches copyright... ...And it's a daily battle to fight YouTube to prove that there are no copyright breaches...

ohh is it that much hassle just to add a song? im mates with djs that produce their own songs . pretty sure theyll let you use one of their choones for your vids

pm me if your interested

So it has been a long time since I've done an episode of SAU Vic TV. I guess I've been too busy working on other people's projects to work on my own. That being said, the Show 'n' Shine is coming up and I'm wondering if anyone would like to have a go at hosting the show. Martin did a great job last year but will be away this year. All you need to do is bring some enthusiasm and we'll be set to go.

I know some websites if you want music without permission.

Anything will help. I know of a few sites where you can buy copyright free music, but it sometimes really hard to dig through all the crap to find something good. And then sometimes it's something I've heard somewhere else.

    • Yea that’s why I said ima test them with multimeter and see the reads.
    • Only at idle. Isn’t a problem when rev it seems.
    • @Haggerty This seems silly to ask, but are you confident in your ability to tune the Haltech?  
    • Next on the to-do list was an oil and filter change. Nothing exciting to add here except the oil filter is in a really stupid place (facing the engine mount/subframe/steering rack). GReddy do a relocation kit which puts it towards the gearbox, I would have preferred towards the front but there's obviously a lot more stuff there. Something I'll have to look at for the next service perhaps. First time using Valvoline oil, although I can't see it being any different to most other brands Nice... The oil filter location... At least the subframe wont rust any time soon I picked up a genuine fuel filter, this is part of the fuel pump assembly inside the fuel tank. Access can be found underneath the rear seat, you'll see this triangular cover Remove the 3x plastic 10mm nuts and lift the cover up, pushing the rubber grommet through The yellow fuel line clips push out in opposite directions, remove these completely. The two moulded fuel lines can now pull upwards to disconnect, along with the wire electrical plug. There's 8x 8mm bolts that secure the black retaining ring. The fuel pump assembly is now ready to lift out. Be mindful of the fuel hose on the side, the hose clamp on mine was catching the hose preventing it from lifting up The fuel pump/filter has an upper and lower section held on by 4 pressure clips. These did take a little bit of force, it sounded like the plastic tabs were going to break but they didn't (don't worry!) The lower section helps mount the fuel pump, there's a circular rubber gasket/grommet/seal thing on the bottom where the sock is. Undo the hose clip on the short fuel hose on the side to disconnect it from the 3 way distribution pipe to be able to lift the upper half away. Don't forget to unplug the fuel pump too! There's a few rubber O rings that will need transferring to the new filter housing, I show these in the video at the bottom of this write up. Reassembly is the reverse Here's a photo of the new filter installed, you'll be able to see where the tabs are more clearing against the yellow OEM plastic Once the assembly is re-installed, I turned the engine over a few times to help build up fuel pressure. I did panic when the car stopped turning over but I could hear the fuel pump making a noise. It eventually started and has been fine since. Found my 'lucky' coin underneath the rear seat too The Youtube video can be seen here: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=uLJ65pmQt44&t=6s
    • It was picked up on the MOT/Inspection that the offside front wheel bearing had excessive play along with the ball joint. It made sense to do both sides so I sourced a pair of spare IS200 hubs to do the swap. Unfortunately I don't have any photos of the strip down but here's a quick run down. On the back of the hub is a large circular dust cover, using a flat head screw driver and a mallet I prised it off. Underneath will reveal a 32mm hub nut (impact gun recommended). With the hub nut removed the ABS ring can be removed (I ended up using a magnetic pick up tool to help). Next up is to remove the stub axle, this was a little trickier due to limited tools. I tried a 3 leg puller but the gap between the hub and stub axle wasn't enough for the legs to get in and under. Next option was a lump hammer and someone pulling the stub axle at the same time. After a few heavy hits it released. The lower bearing race had seized itself onto the stub axle, which was fine because I was replacing them anyway. With the upper bearing race removed and the grease cleaned off they looked like this The left one looked pristine inside but gave us the most trouble. The right one had some surface rust but came apart in a single hit, figure that out?! I got a local garage to press the new wheel bearings in, reassemble was the opposite and didn't take long at all. Removing the hub itself was simple. Starting with removing the brake caliper, 2x 14mm bolts for the caliper slider and 2x 19mm? for the carrier > hub bolts. I used a cable tie to secure the caliper to the upper arm so it was out of the way, there's a 10mm bolt securing the ABS sensor on. With the brake disc removed from the hub next are the three castle nuts for the upper and lower ball joints and track rod end. Two of these had their own R clip and one split pin. A few hits with the hammer and they're released (I left the castle nuts on by a couple of turns), the track rod ends gave me the most grief and I may have nipped the boots (oops). Fitting is the reversal and is very quick and easy to do. The lower ball joints are held onto the hub by 2x 17mm bolts. The castle nut did increase in socket size to 22mm from memory (this may vary from supplier) The two front tyres weren't in great condition, so I had those replaced with some budget tyres for the time being. I'll be replacing the wheels and tyres in the future, this was to get me on the road without the worry of the police hassling me.
