Yea, that person should be either the owner's son or something. Thai looking guy yea?

If I'm not mistaken, it also has Ksport brakes? Don't think he drives it hard enough because it always looks so clean :)

Someone should hit him up and get him to join us on one of our runs.

We need another funky colour so the Abom doesn't get all the attention!

yeah, I think he lives around perth st area as well. Was having a bit of a chat to him one night, he was telling me about his dramas with manual conversion using the auto ecu :P

10am eh, when and where are they cruising?

don't like swifts and focii (unless its a hottie driving) or flat brimmers!

It's on their facebook page - Last Place Cruising.

Meet at the lookout at 10am.

10:30 cruise starts heading out to ravensbourne lookout and photos taken.

12:00 - 12:30 back into toowoomba parking at the duggan st parking then into the gladstone for lunch n drinks.

I suppose from ravensbourne, we could then decide to go our way and have lunch at the withcott pub?

I personally wouldn't buy a swift nor a focus but apparently some of these guys have had their share of modded imports in the past. I have been known to discriminate against certain cars and mod trends but I'm trying to change my stripes :P

Did you get a number or get him to have a look at this thread?

Could get him to join us unless of course he likes driving/hardparking alone :closedeyes:

Yeah I might head out. Was going to go for a nice drive with Amy in the 32 on Sunday anyway. Might go to this instead

I'll prolly come along with you. Meet up at at HQ around 9:30?

I have no idea where this silly lookout is and cbf'd googling. I only know that north st passes straight thru the heart of derelict central in Toowoomba :P

Alternatively, could meet up at mine cos I think I'm closer to the lookout yea?

LOL alright then. We'll have to do our own sometime soon to make up for missing this one?

Besides, I haven't gotten the call from Chris to say I can pick up the new girl.

At least I know it's not a rushed in/out sorta job...or perhaps he just wants to keep the evo for a little bit to enjoy himself :ph34r:

I say we do exactly that Mr Nick! I'd be down with that. Right now I could do with some Thai/Chinese!

And that's good that she's all sorted now! You'll have to show me it one of these days - best not talk about it on here ;)

apparently farmers arms at cabarlah puts on a pretty good spread.

checked out that fb page as well, what is their theme????

They don't have a theme as far as I know. They just welcome anyone and everyone. All cars seem to be welcomed as well as long as they aren't idiots and abide by the rules of the cruise.

I didn't make it. Nobody seemed keen enough and I'm not rocking up alone.

When's the next TSO + E run? :P

I spent most of the day either running errands or watching the bathurst 12hr. Fking Nissan decided once again to prove they're shit by supplying blindfolds to each of their drivers and use it they did! :dry:

Can't wait to see what cars run at next year's. I'm surprised that none of these rich people chose to use an LFA or a Koenigsegg or an Aston Martin. If they can spend stupid money fitting a 5ltr V8 into a Ford Focus and turn it RWD, they should have gone for something that exotic just for kicks.

      Never ending fuel pump drama

      By Murray_Calavera · Posted

      So last night pulling away from the lights, I lost power for about 1 second. Bit weird, but I kept driving... 5 minutes later the pump completely dies. When I tried to start the car, the pump won't even prime.  I left the car for about an hour, tried to start it and it all appeared fine. Pump primed, car started, got the fuel pressure I should have.... Start driving home, 5 minutes later it dies again. I'm stuck in a shit spot this time going up hill with a car right behind me, so I just let the car continue to turn over while praying to the fuel pump gods. After about 2 minutes of turning the engine over, the fuel pump came back to life and I got home (only about another 5 min away).  So I've been digging around online, it seems like the 525 fuel pumps really don't like to be run at 100% all the time. I've found quite a few examples online of people killing their Walbro 525 pumps within about a year of usage when they are run without PWM.  So, my pump is an Aeroflow 525 (AF49-1057) and I've been running it at 100% without PWM. I'm thinking the Aeroflow 525 didn't like being run at 100% and has burnt itself up.  I really am sick of dealing with fuel pump issues, my current thoughts are -  1. Use a Walbro 450 and run it without PWM. It seems like these pumps hold up pretty well to being run at 100% all the time. I only make about 350kw and can't see me making any more power any time soon so this is probably a fine option.  2. Get a Walbro 525, run it with PWM. I know doing this will annoy me as I feel like with only 350kw, its extra expense that I don't "need" and I'll be thinking the whole time while setting it up that I should have gone with option 1. I know I'll be happy with this option when its setup and running, its only the initial setup frustration and cost as an issue.  3. Get a Walbro BKS1001 brushless pump. This is the fu*k it I'm already going PWM, might as well go full retard. This option just seems better in every way, with the only downside being cost. But I don't know much about this pump so I could be wrong.  Happy to get everyone's thoughts before I go digging around in the fuel tank again.

      Like loud exhausts? You could be a psychopath.

      By GTSBoy · Posted

      Actually, it is probably pretty legit. I mean, it's still woke feminazi bullshit academia, but you would have to agree that it is very likely that there would be a correlation between wanting a loud exhaust and scoring at the unpleasant end of the scales for dark triad personality traits. The fact that they found it didn't correlate with narcissism and only with psychopathy and sadism definitely shows that the loud exhaust thing is more of a "f**k you" than a "look at me", and I reckon that rings pretty close to most of the dickheads who take it to the extreme. Remember, this is correlation with tendency to be closer to one end of a personality trait scale than the other end. Of course someone who is at the literal opposite end of the psychopathy scale is going to be so considerate of others that they wouldn't even think about wanting to upset anyone with a loud exhaust. So the finding isn't that "you are a psychopath". Just that you score more towards that end of the scale than someone who doesn't like loud exhausts (on average, not necessarily even for specific individuals).
