If you want to live long and die of old age you could stay inside your house all your life, because plenty of things outside of it can kill you, but what are you keeping yourself alive for...

Earn your death!

front has aids

front's the best part...

Technically, yes.

We all roll our sleeves up though, my hard hat is usually on the floor where I'm working, glasses around my neck lol

You'd still have it worse crawling in roof spaces though, and if it hits 35 degrees we go home...paid..

i see. yeah going in roofs in hot days is the worst part. all that itchy insulation doesn't help either

Fun. Do you have it?

difference between fun and stupid. do you know it?

So, get a phone call today from mother of the girl I had a lovetap with in peak hour traffic the other day. 2001 E36 318i, I scratched her rear bar a little (it already had a few scratches) and she said on the day that she probably wouldn't bother chasing it up...I offered to pay for touch up paint etc. Went on our merry ways. Now I have this phone call from the mother saying she took the car to a panelbeater and got a quote of $640 to respray the rear bar...am waiting on confirmation from panelbeater mate, but does this shit sound excessive to you guys? I would have thought $300 tops for a rear bar, it's a bloody 10 year old pov spec beamer :/

The lady owner of the van my brother rear ended (actually the car he hit, hit the van in front) sent a claim for $22,000....

We're talkin a regular old tarago or something, that she was able to drive away from the incident with some minor rear bar damage.

Does that sound excessive to you guys?

Sounds about right birds euro = $$$$

If she had to replace the rear bar it'd be a different story and I'd agree with you, but this is just a respray, should be no more expensive to work on than Jap or Aussie car. They won't get it repaired anyway, they'll just pocket the cash. Thinking of offering them $350 to bugger off.

How much cheaper?

Break it to him by slapping sense into him and buy a Skyline - gearboxes doesn't break into pieces on stock power in Skylines.

    • Oh, also, forgot to add these photos I believe.
    • Thought i'd update on this. I was able to get in contact with Craig Lieberman and later on Darryl Alison (owner of Kaizo Industries). Darryl was able to help me verify that my car was in fact one of theirs and is helping me find more info on mine !
    • There's restrictor pills in the stock boost control hoses. That's how they set the amount that was bled off and hence the "high" boost setting. The usual mod in the day was to remove it and send the "high" boost setting up to about 14 psi.
    • Thanks Duncan, that's the best info I've read. Furthermore after learning about the PCM programming side controlling the factory boost solenoid, the purpose of the solenoid is to "bleed" boost when pin 25 is earthed, thus allowing spring pressure in the wastegate actuator to overcome diaphragm boost pressure, thus closing or reducing the position of the wastegate flap creating more boost as the turbo is able to spin faster. It's pretty cool to see a designated Pill to do exactly this, would have liked to have seen it with a tiny filter over the end for those moments in vacuum.  The constant bleed pill has now been removed completely from the system and solenoid boost control has been restored once again.   Case closed 😂
    • The wideband reading is meaningless if it's not running. Why are you using shitty old sidefeeds on any engine, let alone a Neo? What manifold and fuel rail are you using to achieve that? Beyond that, can't help you with AEM stuff as I've never been their ECU/CAS combo.
