Who Here Enjoys The Odd Cigar , But Feels As Popular As A Leper For Having One?


Recommended Posts

I would always bust out the cigar for the special occasions (weddings, engagements, etc etc) but since quitting smoking a year ago I haven't had one since. I got no problem with people busting them out and I have always seen them as a way to celebrate something big (you don't bust them out for your birthday every year). Although I do have to say not a big fan of all those vanilla and different flavoured ones, They are cheap and if its an occasion that deserves a cigar you shouldn't be going that cheap.

Yeah pretty much my feelings, I've got a wedding coming up and I'm doing a bit of research to find something that won't destroy the non-smokers, yet will appease those that do like smoking. The past week I've tried my fair share of cubans and had some funny looks from neighbours while doing garden work with a massive torpedo in my hand haha

If anyone is keen to get in touch with the guys I get them through just send me a quick PM, they're pricing is very resonably for top-end cigars (mostly $20-35 each compared to $40-75 elsewhere) and are still a word-of mouth type shop that have excellent service and even a club with events at their roof-top terrace BBQ!!!

love it, yeah i got corona's this time...

and for those who think im taking about beverages, corona is a beer, a place, a cigar & even a food...

not to mention a type of plasma emitted from the sun and a crown in latin

Hey Dan, firstly yes it's definitely ok to bust out a stogie on the odd occasion. Heck, inhale a little if you wanna real be ballin' with it.

Secondly, I sent you monies and PM'd you about some LED's but haven't had a reply are you about at all big fella?

thanks mate.

Definately no messages from you?????

Inhaling a Bolivar Belicosos Finos needs some lung toughness! For general odour and awesomeness, Partagas Serie D No 4's or Cohiba Robustos, all are sub $30 sticks....closer to $20 in bulk.

Hmmm maybe wec ould all do a bulk buy, it would probably still work out a bargain with reg post to distribute them around if people could agree on boxes of 25's????

Make sure you check the prices against Cigar-Czar in the super secret aussie section down the bottom (you need to sign up and get your Monicled Monkey Keyring!!) you'll get access to flamin mongrelA (Cigar Underground Terra Australis) and great pricing through the password protected Aussie only section, the priclist is a sticky, everything they sell local is hand selected and are humidor aged cigars :D

I'd be in for a box

Yeah no probs, my suggestions would be the Partagas Serie D No 4's their aged ones they have outrank the Cohibas Robusto and are $150 cheaper per 25 $490 is If you want to go halves?

    • When I said "wiring diagram", I meant the car's wiring diagram. You need to understand how and when 12V appears on certain wires/terminals, when 0V is allowed to appear on certain wires/terminals (which is the difference between supply side switching, and earth side switching), for the way that the car is supposed to work without the immobiliser. Then you start looking for those voltages in the appropriate places at the appropriate times (ie, relay terminals, ECU terminals, fuel pump terminals, at different ignition switch positions, and at times such as "immediately after switching to ON" and "say, 5-10s after switching to ON". You will find that you are not getting what you need when and where you need it, and because you understand what you need and when, from working through the wiring diagram, you can then likely work out why you're not getting it. And that will lead you to the mess that has been made of the associated wires around the immobiliser. But seriously, there is no way that we will be able to find or lead you to the fault from here. You will have to do it at the car, because it will be something f**ked up, and there are a near infinite number of ways for it to be f**ked up. The wiring diagram will give you wire colours and pin numbers and so you can do continuity testing and voltage/time probing and start to work out what is right and what is wrong. I can only close my eyes and imagine a rat's nest of wiring under the dash. You can actually see and touch it.
    • So I found this: https://www.efihardware.com/temperature-sensor-voltage-calculator I didn't know what the pullup resistor is. So I thought if I used my table of known values I could estimate it by putting a value into the pullup resistor, and this should line up with the voltages I had measured. Eventually I got this table out of it by using 210ohms as the pullup resistor. 180C 0.232V - Predicted 175C 0.254V - Predicted 170C 0.278V - Predicted 165C 0.305V - Predicted 160C 0.336V - Predicted 155C 0.369V - Predicted 150C 0.407V - Predicted 145C 0.448V - Predicted 140C 0.494V - Predicted 135C 0.545V - Predicted 130C 0.603V - Predicted 125C 0.668V - Predicted 120C 0.740V - Predicted 115C 0.817V - Predicted 110C 0.914V - Predicted 105C 1.023V - Predicted 100C 1.15V 90C 1.42V - Predicted 85C 1.59V 80C 1.74V 75C 1.94V 70C 2.10V 65C 2.33V 60C 2.56V 58C 2.68V 57C 2.70V 56C 2.74V 55C 2.78V 54C 2.80V 50C 2.98V 49C 3.06V 47C 3.18V 45C 3.23V 43C 3.36V 40C 3.51V 37C 3.67V 35C 3.75V 30C 4.00V As before, the formula in HPTuners is here: https://www.hptuners.com/documentation/files/VCM-Scanner/Content/vcm_scanner/defining_a_transform.htm?Highlight=defining a transform Specifically: In my case I used 50C and 150C, given the sensor is supposedly for that. Input 1 = 2.98V Output 1 = 50C Input 2 = 0.407V Output 2 = 150C (0.407-2.98) / (150-50) -2.573/100 = -0.02573 2.98/-0.02573 + 47.045 = 50 So the corresponding formula should be: (Input / -0.02573) + 47.045 = Output.   If someone can confirm my math it'd be great. Supposedly you can pick any two pairs of the data to make this formula.
    • Well this shows me the fuel pump relay is inside the base of the drivers A Pillar, and goes into the main power wire, and it connects to the ignition. The alarm is.... in the base of the drivers A Pillar. The issue is that I'm not getting 12v to the pump at ignition which tells me that relay isn't being triggered. AVS told me the immobiliser should be open until the ignition is active. So once ignition is active, the immobiliser relay should be telling that fuel pump relay to close which completes the circuit. But I'm not getting voltage at the relay in the rear triggered by the ECU, which leaves me back at the same assumption that that relay was never connected into the immobiliser. This is what I'm trying to verify, that my assumption is the most likely scenario and I'll go back to the alarm tech yet again that he needs to fix his work.      Here is the alarms wiring diagram, so my assumption is IM3A, IM3B, or both, aren't connected or improper. But this is all sealed up, with black wiring, and loomed
