Hey all,

For 4 days a week between Jan 15th and March 1st 2012 I will be in Sydney doing a massage course, the campus is in st leonards and am trying to work out accomodation around that area, if anyone is willing to let me board with them or house sit or knows of cheap (since I am a student) accomodation please let me know :-)

Cheers,

Melly

Matty, it's funny that you assume Mel's a troll when she has been on the forums longer than you and has more posts... :blink: :blink:

Mel, are you gonna have a car with you when you head up? It might make it easier to find somewhere to stay if you have wheels and access to parking during the day while you're doing the course.

Hey Nick, yeah I am driving up but I don't know Sydney very well so freaking out about having to drive and navigate around at peak hour etc. I was even thinking staying somewhere I can leave my car during the day and train it to St Leonards. Class is 9-4 so would be busy driving times I think... All the hotels etc. that I can book at looked to be around the $600 per week mark :/

Lol... Not to mention the amount of times I am lazy and post under Zane's account :whistling:

Thanks Andrew, like I said I don't know Sydney very well so that is a good tip, I didn't even think of the tolls etc... I usually get to Quakers hill area for Motorkhanas or Texi and eastern creek for superlap, drifting etc. and that is my limit :P

If you walk into RNSH bleeding they give you a free bed. :P

Funny how Melb has one of the best Chiro Colleges and St Leonards has one of the Best Massage Courses.

One of my colleagues (a naturopath) used to lecture at St Leonards; I'll ask her where she stayed whilst her home is in Blackheath.

Yea I didn't look at her profile... I kinda jumped the gun abit there :P

Sorry Mel xD

Btw if I was u I would avoid public transport, just buy a cheap nav man and you'll be right.

Hey Terry thanks!

Luna are there even any gumtrees in the city?? Lol

I have a Nav man, still a bit nervous about driving in the city and the tolls etc. At least with public transport I have a ROUGH indication or how long it will take lol. Tracks, highways, motorkhanas I am fine, navigating in traffic makes me nervous its taken me almost 3 yrs to get used to Canberra let alone Sydney haha

LOL i aint rising to the bait guys though i gotta admit i can see one rather busy 'establishment' from my balcony. Never been tempted to cross the threshold though seeing as all the workers are males, dont get too excited though girls. Most of the customers seem to be male as well. Very confusing.

The other five or six places are at least a block away so i wouldnt say your exactly stumbling over them and im pretty sure a massage is the last thing anyone is getting in those places. The last time i paid for a massage was on a trip to Thailand and no it didnt end happily at all, quite painfully actually! Swedish style FTW

    • I seem to the be only person that is using a Haltech 2500 on an NA motor, I've installed a Bosch DBW throttle body to the OEM intake manifold and am having problems maintaining AFR even with the wideband o2.  It will run extremely rich at idle and up to redline, but under load it will go extremely lean in the 20s and i'm essentially having to rev it over 4k and feather the clutch to get it up to speed.  I've read a few other threads of about the butterfly, it seems removing the vacuum to it is supposed to have it remain open, i've noticed no difference under 4k with the vacuum line to it plugged.  I'm hoping someone here has had luck using the NA manifold with Haltech, and if they happen to have a tune for it.  
    • I don't know any details, but I really wouldn't be surprised if they do it as a LHD only version, at least initially.
    • Thanks for the replies everyone. Definitely a coolant push. Oil catch can is empty and always has been. As the engine is out now I'll be having a good look over things. I do have some detonation on the piston tops from a trigger issue back about 5 years ago. I felt it and shut off then bought a new ecu and changed the trigger. Never been an issue since. It never hurt the power, its made almost 80hp more since that incident but I will pull the bearing caps to take a look. If the bearings are damaged I will do a bottom end refresh. Head is being re conditioned at the moment and the block will be cleaned and checked to ensure it's flat. I'll go with a kameari gasket and see how it ends up. The other thing I'm not super keen on is the cylinder colours. I suspect this is from the inlet manifold. The plan will be to put it back together, retune and then stick a plazmaman billet inlet on it and retune. I'm happy with the power, if it makes a little more, then great, but I would rather just make everything more efficient at this stage.
    • Maybe they'll look to do a bunch of presales to help inject some cash fast for their financial issues...
    • Does it also misfire equally when revving?   Josh is very correct in what you should do. The coilpack harness wiring loom itself is a known problem due to its age and the number of heat cycles it has gone through. Throwing parts at a vehicle to diagnose the issue isn't a smart or good way to do it. Secondly, you may have a bad coil pack, you pop replacements in, they fix that issue, but messing with the harness breaks it, so the issue persists. So now you think "well it wasn't the coil packs" and have to continue chasing your tail, potentially swapping back in your shit coil packs and returning the good ones (yes, I've seen people do this because 'it wasn't the problem' and they want to save money). And suddenly, you've got two issues with the same symptoms...   Diagnose, don't use the spare parts shotgun.
