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.

    • Hi. Sry iam not a mechanic and iam not at the car atm so i dont know 100% but they told they measure those and even try to change those. AFM they have two. Coils are new a they have my old one too. Plugs too. ECU...we have 25 NEO stock and Nistune 25 NEO.   But i dont know if any one those could be the problem and why/if/what can cause this, Only thing they did not check is fuel...but that walbro 255 is new(like 1,5 years)... That fuel pressure gauge idk...but i let them know Any suggestions?   EDIT: how can they know if it is like you say he ECU pull power when it reaches a specific boost level that is too high? Tha car has boost controler
    • Can you clarify what you mean by boost cut, do you mean it misfires both when under load (driving) and when stationary and out of gear? Or does the ECU pull power when it reaches a specific boost level that is too high (boost control issue)? Does it occur at idle with no throttle? When you say "the ECU is OK", what ECU is it and why do you think it is OK? Have you used the NEO ECU, and if so do you have a MAP sensor attached? Same for the AFM, why do you think it is OK? Do you have any way to put a fuel pressure gauge on it (even just a mechanical one between the fuel filter and fuel rail)?
    • Hi.. Just another problem. So maybe you can help. I(my mechanic) done swap from my RB20DE NEO to RB25DET NEO. Everything is OK but we have a boost cut. Coils/Plugs are ok...AFM is ok. ECU is ok. I have Walbro 255 but it "changed" sound few months ago(you can hear it ouside) you did not hear that when it was new(maybe faulty?) Sooo...what now? What can cause this boost cut? It is even when you standing still...
