That is just too awesome ... brings back some great memories of our visit to Universal Studios in LA where we saw all that shiz .... War of the Worlds set, Bates Motel (from Psycho), Jaws, Back to the future set and lots of others. Too cool.

Their facebook page is really copping it hahaha good entertainment for an otherwise boring as hell lecture

Lol and i spotted this on NS.com

That its mate, i try to run the place to how i would like to be treated as a customer

LOL, and people wonder why I refuse to go on Fail Book after all that shit!!

The little I picked up from this is that Sideways Auto used a pic that was uploaded on the interwebz, yeah?........sorry, cbf reading it all.

No law against using any photo that's been placed in a public forum...even if it has copyright plastered all over it......AS LONG AS IT'S NOT FOR FINANCIAL GAIN......that'll get you in the real dog house!!! >_<

The issue was that he removed the photographers watermark, and refused to give credit to it. If you've put a photo on say Flickr, you can retain ownership of the photo via creative commons and people wishing to use it may only do so if they give the author or licensor appropriate credit

You also can't alter it and then use it to promote your business, which it could be said is for financial gain.

Which is where it would have ended. Instead he decided to call everyone names and threaten to tear them apart. Great PR.

It has reached the Netherlands.

Can't wait to go home, smash 37 Testobooster protein shakes, and catch up on all that Sideways shit.

I love that they seem completely oblivious to the damage they're doing to themselves.

i got an s15 now, stock as a rock though

Good choice. I'd do something about it being stock though.

yep, i think they've damaged their business rep beyond repair now

    • I guess one thing that might be wrong is the manifold pressure.  It is a constant -5.9 and never moves even under 100% throttle and load.  I would expect it to atleast go to 0 correct?  It's doing this with the OEM MAP as well as the ECU vacuum sensor. When trying to tune the base map under load the crosshairs only climb vertically with RPM, but always in the -5.9 column.
    • AHHHH gotchaa, I'll do that once I am home again. I tried doing the harness with the multimeter but it seems the car needed a jump, there was no power when it was in the "ON" position. Not sure if I should use car battery jump starter or if its because the stuff that has been disconnect the car just does send power.
    • As far as I can tell I have everything properly set in the Haltech software for engine size, injector data, all sensors seem to be reporting proper numbers.  If I change any injector details it doesnt run right.    Changing the base map is having the biggest change in response, im not sure how people are saying it doesnt really matter.  I'm guessing under normal conditions the ECU is able to self adjust and keep everything smooth.   Right now my best performance is happening by lowering the base map just enough to where the ECU us doing short term cut of about 45% to reach the target Lambda of 14.7.  That way when I start putting load on it still has high enough fuel map to not be so lean.  After 2500 rpm I raised the base map to what would be really rich at no load, but still helps with the lean spots on load.  I figure I don't have much reason to be above 2500rpm with no load.  When watching other videos it seems their target is reached much faster than mine.  Mine takes forever to adjust and reach the target. My next few days will be spent making sure timing is good, it was running fine before doing the ECU and DBW swap, but want to verify.  I'll also probably swap in the new injectors I bought as well as a walbro 255 pump.  
    • It would be different if the sealant hadn't started to peel up with gaps in the glue about ~6cm and bigger in some areas. I would much prefer not having to do the work take them off the car . However, the filler the owner put in the roof rack mount cavities has shrunk and begun to crack on the rail delete panels. I cant trust that to hold off moisture ingress especially where I live. Not only that but I have faded paint on as well as on either side of these panels, so they would need to come off to give the roofline a proper respray. My goal is to get in there and put a healthy amount of epoxy instead of panel filler/bog and potentially skin with carbon fiber. I have 2 spare rolls from an old motorcycle fairing project from a few years back and I think it'd be a nice touch on a black stag.  I've seen some threads where people replace their roof rack delete with a welded in sheet metal part. But has anyone re-worked the roof rails themselves? It seems like there is a lot of volume there to add in some threads and maybe a keyway for a quick(er) release roof rack system. Not afraid to mill something out if I have to. It would be cool to have a cross bar only setup. That way I can keep the sleek roofline that would accept a couple bolts to gain back that extra utility  3D print some snazzy covers to hide the threaded section to be thorough and keep things covered when not using the rack. 
    • Probably not. A workshop grade scantool is my go to for proper Consult interrogation. Any workshop grade tool should do it. Just go to a workshop.
