You laugh now, but when I'm at a formal occasion with a shitty DJ and they need someone to drop Dre beats...I have something up my sleeve.

Mike showed me pics. You have silver ones, yeah? I like my silver ones. Look good on the car. I just don't want to destroy my centre caps, but can't find a tool for them anywhere, what with them being discontinued.

I have 2 sets, silver and black.

I also have issues finding tool for the centre caps.

speaking to a friend who works at a volkswagon dealership... apparently customer came in for routine service on new gen Golf. "do you know why my golf keeps going through so much oil?" friend spoke to some people and found out the new golfs are designed to use up oil. around 2L per 5,000-10,000kms or something

:wacko:

not sure if trying to keep regular servicing or trying to meet emissions standards/efficiency.

and heard about audi servicing too... blimey. Audi 15,000kms service: $1200. Q7 brake pad replacement: just under $1000 a corner because need to replace rotors as well.

A maloo is only driven by 18/19yo tradies who are trying to use it to chase minge.

Tell him to buy a golf to get to golf.

so they have a tiguan for mum to drive.

in first 12 months spent 33 weeks in the shop.

they replaced gear box twice, seals in something else, to find it was the rear main seal in motor.

note it was not a VW owned center but a re seller, and if you know where I grew up you will have an idea on where the dealer is...

scary thing is he drives soooo slow, as checking out what other farmers are up to, so when he hits the 8-km zone at the edge of town he has to speed up!

thats because Euro cars are usually owned by people that think spending money on cars for no real reason is cool...They like to brag to their friends about how much they spend...As if spending pointless cash is a sign of prosperity...

but hey, whatever helps the economy churn over...

Let him have his fun and sell it to me for cheap when he's done with it.

      RB25DE NEO with Haltech ECU

      By Haggerty · Posted

      @GTSBoy This method was able to get readings of -10 to -2, so it looks like its monitoring.  Now I need to figure out why the vacuum on the line provided isn't alternating with manifold pressure.  I went with 2 lines that an RB25 tuner recommended but I'll get a longer hose and try directly off the back of the manifold.  He may have been used to OEM intake setups while I have a DBW setup that removed the MAF and IACV.

      I work at a car detailing and tinting shop called Quark which gets all manner of German cars in usually (mainly due to a contract with Mercedes Benz Kita Osaka, BMW Nishinomiya and others) but every once in a while something special comes in, like a fully restored 1972 HS30 Nissan Fairlady 240ZG... The shop owner had immediately started applying film to the windows as soon as it was in the shop so the interior was completely covered in towels and plastic sheets. But I could get a few photos of the engine bay which was restored like new. Such an amazing car to see in pristine condition in Japan these days.

      Duncan's V37.......race car?

      By Rezz · Posted

      Was going to say the car pulls up nicely everywhere, especially going into that last long right hander before the main straight. Looks like a lot of fun.

      Noobie Stagea owner..

      By Turbodoc · Posted

      Hey Dave, welcome aboard! Good to see another soon-to-be Stagea owner here. The wagons are awesome — plenty of space, still got that Skyline DNA, and loads of potential if you’re into mods. Definitely post up pics when you get it, everyone here loves seeing new builds. What model/year are you looking at?
