Went into Ted's Camera Store in Southland on my lunch break and asked how much the Hero3+ Black is... $530... I laughed and said "I guess that's why you've got so much stock of them" and walked out...

Then bought it online this afternoon for $449, and then got a 64GB Sandisk Class 10 MicroSD and the new style GoPro Suction Cup Mount... all for less than Ted's wanted for just the camera.

And they wonder why people are turning to online purchases and we're hurting "the little guy, the aussie battler" with a brick and mortar store...

Niceee, how much for the hero2 ;]

Would it be possible to flip the intake plenum and have it all run turnflow down the RHS of the bay?

not enough room on that side. barely enough room to fit an alternator belt with the engine in. But it probably could be done, maybe with a custom plenum.

and then you'd have to figure out how to get from the outgoing compressor to the inlet of the intercooler.

hmmmm... possibly. might foul on the turbo as its mounted low

Im getting new ignition leads, 7mm NGK's are probs getting old. I know next to nothing about spark leads, but know about cables. I couldnt unscrew/detach the bit that fits over the spark plug, so wasnt sure if you need to buy them/get them made with them on ?

I know right! How dare he charge $90 extra just so he can have a stocked shop front with full time labour & the freedom to take camera home and use the same day!

    • Yes, but, I paid cash and I'm pretty sure the receipt was in the bin 10 minutes after I got home Note to self, keep all receipts
    • Bunnings would have just handed you your money back on that one!
    • So, version 4 intake is on its way I was looking at these a while ago but at around $200 or more it was a little pricey for something that might not work, but, I had it in my watch list, but, I got a message saying it was on special, and I had a code thingie to use, it eventually came in at $120 delivered, so BAM, BUY NOW.....LOL I'll need to have a look when it arrives but I feel it will "look" better than what I currently have, as it comes with a PCV fitting, so I will be able to get rid of the alloy pipe that goes to the throttle body with the PCV fitting  Well, that's what the voices in my head are telling me  Oh, and this happened today Yeap, it was a Trojan, and it was cheap, so I headed back to the hardware store and actually spent a little bit more on a heavy duty,  one that was actually recommended by a plumber mate, a Cyclone one with a fibreglass handle that is actually rated for clay The broken shovel will eventually be "modified" into a short handle shovel
    • When you pulled it off, there is no signs of blown head gasket? Is it possible you have some other issues going on? Possible cracked blocked? Or do you think it's straight up lifting the head? Did you check what the head was torqued to before pulling it down (To see if possibly they're stretching, or starting to break threads out etc)?
