But you're cheating!

Them parkers are awesome, white with the slightest blue tinge.

haha true :P

yeah they the best, pity I can't use them in headlights :(

Can you even see at night! Bahaha

More or less where I always end up haha. Just end up accepting the cold facts :P.

GTI you have? (i think?). So gewd. Jelly.

--

Lol as for sliding... *looks outside at weather* :whistling: ...

nah tdi, gti would never get that kind of fuel economy :P

cruise? what cruise?

then again. i cant be f**ked..

you guys can stop by my house for creme brulee.

you lazy bastard

oh well ill be stopping by next weekend anyway

I usually drive with windows down so I look out the window when reversing. Also have ultra bright interior LEDs, lol, it's like daytime inside my car at night, looks like a scene out of Tron.

Those tacos look gewd. I... had some buscuits. /foreveralone

Btw sunkist, how dark is your tint man, looks quite dark :O. I need to invest in tint, have been talking about getting it for too long. Although not as high a priority as some things... not to mention winter coming up anyway :P

i have no idea to be honest. the tint is pretty shitty now though, a few scratches and theres like overspray or something :S so ill be pulling it off soon and getting it re done. probably just legal it around the car..

i managed to keep my mouth shut at the time, but after watching it, i have to say it,

fuck the people that thought that ACA interview was going to be a chance to seperate hoons and enthusiasts in the pubic's perception are stupid... it's ACA for fuck sake,

i'm sure ash said a bunch of shit that was positive, did they include him in the final edit? not once. why people on here thought it would be any different is beyone me...

ACA have a VESTED INTEREST in portraying HOONS as EVIL... end of fucking story,

One can only try Hambo, it just reasserted their position - and now the car community will give them even less support :)

Whatcha gonna get?

Looking like it'll be a VY SS, exhaust/intake/diff gears. Mate of mine tunes them so that'll be free.

Should be around 220rwkw which will be good enough for a daily (will keep stock rims on it etc) and still have a bit of poke when needed. I'll probably be doing a lot more KMs in the next 2 years so getting auto/cruise control will be win :)

get a VN uleh

EVO VIII is the other option i'm looking at... this is 20k cheaper and probably faster than the golf R (but one with basic non epa worrying mods)

think my mind is made up on selling the 33... it only sees 3-4 days a year of decent use now... i just dont think i can justify keeping it around for that

Vy ss are good few mates have them still a great shape compared to the older boat style ones.

Yeh sell it hamish it'll be even less use when the little one comes along may as well free up the $$$, maybe buy a shipping container full of nappys lol

i think the better question is why don't I have one... lol I've been asked shitloads of times, and it's like 30 seconds a week effort but in 7 years i have never been able to be f**ked lol

    • Yeah well per the video it took 15s for the stock unit to start up....even if I give it a few seconds discount for starting that is at least 12 sec before you get a reverse camera if you are trying to leave a park.  The android unit is way faster, but 2016 for the stock unit is a long time ago in consumer electronics
    • Yea that’s why I said ima test them with multimeter and see the reads.
    • Only at idle. Isn’t a problem when rev it seems.
    • @Haggerty This seems silly to ask, but are you confident in your ability to tune the Haltech?  
    • Next on the to-do list was an oil and filter change. Nothing exciting to add here except the oil filter is in a really stupid place (facing the engine mount/subframe/steering rack). GReddy do a relocation kit which puts it towards the gearbox, I would have preferred towards the front but there's obviously a lot more stuff there. Something I'll have to look at for the next service perhaps. First time using Valvoline oil, although I can't see it being any different to most other brands Nice... The oil filter location... At least the subframe wont rust any time soon I picked up a genuine fuel filter, this is part of the fuel pump assembly inside the fuel tank. Access can be found underneath the rear seat, you'll see this triangular cover Remove the 3x plastic 10mm nuts and lift the cover up, pushing the rubber grommet through The yellow fuel line clips push out in opposite directions, remove these completely. The two moulded fuel lines can now pull upwards to disconnect, along with the wire electrical plug. There's 8x 8mm bolts that secure the black retaining ring. The fuel pump assembly is now ready to lift out. Be mindful of the fuel hose on the side, the hose clamp on mine was catching the hose preventing it from lifting up The fuel pump/filter has an upper and lower section held on by 4 pressure clips. These did take a little bit of force, it sounded like the plastic tabs were going to break but they didn't (don't worry!) The lower section helps mount the fuel pump, there's a circular rubber gasket/grommet/seal thing on the bottom where the sock is. Undo the hose clip on the short fuel hose on the side to disconnect it from the 3 way distribution pipe to be able to lift the upper half away. Don't forget to unplug the fuel pump too! There's a few rubber O rings that will need transferring to the new filter housing, I show these in the video at the bottom of this write up. Reassembly is the reverse Here's a photo of the new filter installed, you'll be able to see where the tabs are more clearing against the yellow OEM plastic Once the assembly is re-installed, I turned the engine over a few times to help build up fuel pressure. I did panic when the car stopped turning over but I could hear the fuel pump making a noise. It eventually started and has been fine since. Found my 'lucky' coin underneath the rear seat too The Youtube video can be seen here: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=uLJ65pmQt44&t=6s
