How do you give way to the bus when the bus is next to you in the lane(i.e. fronts about even) and then decides to cross into your lane when you have no where to go? Had this happen to myself going past Doncaster a while back.

Wish it were that simple. Solid lines, In the middle of an intersection, I was up against a f**kin high gutter in the left lane. No where to go. Had I not backed off I would have had some nice new body work.

Guys I hear your pain. I have driven in all our lovely states and territories and I can tell you now that Perth is the up with the worst cities I have been in. People actually drive like wankers to piss you off. Example; 3 or 4 lanes and people are sitting in every lane going 80 or 90 kph in a 100 zone. They either don't see you coming at 100kph behind them or they don't care and they sure as f**k don't move. Sometimes they actually all slow down together pinch.gif

Another example that happens all the time is that some f**ker will be in the right lane in an 80 zone. They are going 50 or 60kph. I overtake on the left and the f**kers will actually speed up to block you. This happened last weekend and the wanker actually went from 50 kph to 100 to stop me getting around him. WTF??? rant.gifrant.gifrant.gif

Oh and people pull in front of you with only a meter or 2 gap and one flash of the indicator (if you are lucky) as they finish cutting you off. I had a dude miss me by less than a meter on Saturday and he pulled in front of me with no indicator and he swerved like an idiot too. I honked and when we were at the next lights the fat old mangina just glared at me. rant.gifrant.gifrant.gif

On topic now sleep.gif The bus drivers here aren't too bad at all.

next time a bus driver is about to pull out of a bus stop, just stop next to him and slightly ahead of him just so he can't get out.

chuck your hazards on too. if he tries to reverse for room to pull out, reverse with him to keep blocking him off or there will

probably be other cars behind you to block him anyway, who are all probably beeping at you too. if he gets off the bus,

thats your green light lol

been wanting to do that, but never had the balls to lol

only incident apart from buses pulling out of the bus stops right in front of me (over it now, used to it)

was when i was going down mc kimmies, towards the dysons depot. was doing the limit of 70 and a "not in service"

bus came from plenty road and sat right on my ass, left no more than a foot's gap. without hesitation, i slowed

down to just under 40 and by that time he was already tooting while i flicked the bird at him.

just as i expected he tries to go on the opposite lane so i just let it go, cos by the time, we were already approaching a

roundabout which he almost collected a corolla.

i have no problems with people driving quickly to get somewhere, because who knows, they may have a sick family member,

wife's giving birth, needs to take a dump whatever. but when people sit on your ass, that's a whole different story.

    • That still isn't a lot to go on. I don't have a Y50 Fuga Head Unit wiring diagram. I can say that a lot of nissans of that age shared head unit plugs, so if you are in Australia something like this would probably help: https://aerpro.com/app091# You plug that into the car loom, then either plug the head unit ISO into that (if it has ISO), or you buy and ISO adapter harness that you wire in. Bit of stuffing around, but once you have ISO its easy to change things in future.
    • It is a kunfine Android screen . Does anyone know the wirering diagram of the fuga ??
    • just an update to this, poor man pays twice  Tried sanding down the pulleys but it didnt do the trick. Chucked another second hand alternator in the na car which I got for free off my mate and its fixed the squelling. Must have been unlucky with the bearings.    As for my turbo car, I managed to pick up a cwc rb alternator conversion bracket + LS alternator for 250 off marketplace, looked to be in really good nick. Installed it , started the car and its not charging the battery.... ( Im not good with auto elec stuff so im not sure if this was all I needed to do but I verified such by using a multimeter on the battery when the engine was running and I was only getting 12.2v )   I had to modify the earth strap for the new LS alternator , factory earth strap was a 10mm bolt which did not fit the bolt on the LS alternator which was double the size so I cut it off , went to repco bought some ring terminals that fit, crimped it onto the old earth strap and bolted it up to the alternator , started the car and same issue. Ran like shit and was reading 12.2 at the battery.  For a "plug and play" advertised kit thats not very plug and play but alas.  My question is , am I missing something ? Ive been reading that some people recommend upgrading the stock 80 amp alternator fuse to a 140 amp but I dont see how that would stop the alternator charging especially at idle not under load.  Regardless ive pulled it out and am going to get it bench tested by an auto elec tomorrow but it would be handy to know if ive missed something silly or have done something wrong.   
    • My wild guess is that you have popped off an intake pipe....check all of the hoses between the turbo and the throttle for splits or loose clamps.
    • Awesome, thanks for sharing!
