hmmm shannons charging $700 for laid-up cover while car is not on the road... not sure if value or not. either way, still cheaper than the regular full-comp.

My full comp is less than that

despite passing that place almost daily, i've yet to try. pretty sure my dad goes there from time to time says it's okay tho.

The meats are hit and miss, sometimes great sometimes shit.

You go there for their roti, which is always perfection and good value.

Khazana at Knox O-Zone do a good Indian feed. Banquet is all you can eat mains and it's much better quality than Rich.

Aka third party, for which $700 is a joke rip off.

chicken 65 isn't hot

I'd probably say spice tolerance levels is a personal thing.

The level of spice may not be beyond your tolerances but could be for others.

Jeez Hamish get it together man

Cause your car isnt worth $700 :P

Its covered for its full value if stolen, damaged whilst in garage or in transit. So not quite 3rd party.

There's more to it than tolerances too. I'd refer to a large range of atypically spicy foods as being hot, despite me being able to tolerate bhut jolokia ingredients.

So to me it's like saying a car isn't fast. You could say the new GTR is fast...then some wanker who drag races professionally could say it's not, just to try and make himself feel superior to everyone else. But the car is still fast, because it's faster than a hell of a lot of cars and most people would say it's fast.

Similarly, chicken 65 has a solid kick to it and the writing chalked on the window by the chef says says hot, too...so it's hot.

Is your car worth more than 10k? And by that I mean, are you currently insured for more than that, that they would pay out to you?

Agreed value is $16k or something i think.

My understanding is that its the same as comprehensive, but not covered if in an accident when driving on the road.

Yeah its only handy if you're going away on holidays/overseas for ages, or the car is not running and won't be on the road. You'll still be covered if it gets pulled out of the garage and stolen while you're away.

Fair enough then. Cause my third party theft is about $300 on Skyline and that covers theft for $10k, which is fine for a 33.

Used to be full comp but didn't see the point to $800 full comp on a car worth 10k and especially not when the full comp excess is higher than the third party excess. One year of third party and I've already saved an excess worth of dollars or money to repair some shit happening to my car.

it originally came at the time of Mahendravaram I, a Pallava King who defeated the Kalabhras. Mahendravaram I is seen as a hero by many in the Tamil Nadu district and legend has it he himself slaughtered 65 enemy soldiers and upon victory ordered a grand feast. His personal chefs took the remains of the 65 slaughtered and cooked them such a way that all were awed at the fantastic taste of human flesh. Since then the main ingredient has changed to chicken following the demise of cannibalism, yet the precise spices and cooking method remains the same. Chefs decided the name the dish Chicken 65, as the original dish contained 65 corpses.

Now hungry for enemy soldiers

Enemy soldier night @ Alvin's this sat

    • To follow up a question from earlier too since I had the front bar off again (fking!) This is what is between the bumper and the drivers side wheel And this is the navigator side, only one thing but its a biggy! So basically....no putting coolers in the wheel arches without a lot of moving other stuff. Assuming I move to properly race prepping this car I'll take that job on and see how the computers respond to removing a whole bunch of ADAS modules
    • So I prepped the car for another track day on Wednesday (will be interesting to see coolant temps post flushing out and the larger reservoir, with a forecast of 3-14 being 20o cooler than last time I took it out). Couple of things to mention; since I am just driving the car and not taking a support vehicle, I took the rear seats out and just loaded the back up Team Trackday style. Look at all that space! To cover off removing the rear seat....it is weird (note the hybrid is probably different because it wouldn't have folding rear seats) Basically, you remove the lower seat base, very similar to a r series but it is a clip that pulls forward to release the base rather than it being bolted down. Easy Then, you need to remove the side section of the rear seat on each side. There is a 14mm head nut at the bottom of the side piece, the it slides upwards off a hook at the top to release; you also need to unhook the seatbelt from the loop at the top. Then the centre piece is weird. You need to release/fold the seats forward with the tab in the boot on each side From there, there are 2,x12mm headed bolts holding the rear of each seat to the folding bracket, under the trim between the rear seat and the boot (4x christmas tree clips there, they suck). The seat is out but you can see where the bolts attach to the bracket
    • As discussed in the previous post, the bushes in the 110 needed replacing. I took this opportunity to replace the castor bushes, the front lower control arm, lower the car and get the alignment dialled in with new tyres. I took it down to Alignment Motorsports on the GC to get this work done and also get more out of the Shockworks as I felt like I wasn't getting the full use out of them.  To cut a very long story short, it ended up being the case the passenger side castor arm wouldn't accept the brand new bush as the sleeve had worn badly enough to the point you could push the new bush in by hand and completely through. Trying a pair of TRD bushes didn't fix the issue either (I had originally gone with Hardrace bushes). We needed to urgently source another castor arm, and thankfully this was sourced and the guys at the shop worked on my car until 7pm on a Saturday to get everything done. The car rides a lot nicer now with the suspension dialled in properly. Lowered the car a little as well to suit the lower profile front tyres, and just bring the car down generally. Eternally thankful for the guys down at the shop to get the car sorted, we both pulled big favours from our contacts to get it done on the Saturday.  Also plugged in the new Stedi foglights into the S15, and even from a quick test in the garage I'm keen to see how they look out on the road. I had some concerns about the length of the LED body and whether it'd fit in the foglight housing but it's fine.  I've got a small window coming up next month where I'll likely get a little paint work done on the 110 to remove the rear wing, add a boot wing and roof wing, get the side skirt fixed up and colour match the little panel on the tail lights so that I can install some badges that I've kept in storage. I'm also tempted to put in a new pair of headlights on the 110.  Until then, here's some more pictures from Easter this year. 
    • I would put a fuel pressure gauge between the filter and the fuel rail, see if it's maintaining good fuel pressure at idle going up to the point when it stalls. Do you see any strange behavior in commanded fuel leading up to the point when it stalls? You might have to start going through the service manual and doing a long list of sensor tests if it's not the fuel system for whatever reason.
