Hey can anyone point me in the direction of cheap car transport that accepts non runners. It's a 82' Stanza standard ride height with no engine but brakes and handbrake work.

From Melbourne depot or Pankenham (hour from Melbourne city) to Mooloolaba.

Cheers.

Probably not going to be cheap if it doesn't run as most car transport companies require a vehicle to be driveable to go on a multi car transporter, which would mean it would have to be a flat bed tow.

I would budget around $3 per km for a flatbed

Around $1 per km for a transporter

Big companies won't mind that she's not running, they'll toss it on the prime mover's cab with a fork, but that will only get you to Brisy.

Probably need a tilt for the last bit.

Might pay to check that the fork won't damage any under body/chassis rails etc.

I use Gympie tilit tray transport who does a few Brisy > North trips per week.

Nothing is too much trouble for him and far more reasonable price than your local tilters, Claytons.

If you can get it to your door for $800 it might be the easiest option.

      J50 clock date suddenly reset to January 1

      With the system, once you drive it for a bit, and before you turn the car off, does the car fix its date and time? When you say the date is wrong, what date does the vehicle think it is, and does it always show the same date? My thoughts from a process driven view is; The system may be defaulting to a standard start date/time. The main reason you'd typically see this occuring, is the system is losing its constant/backup power supply.   If its always defaulting to the same date/time at start up, and especially if it fixes itself while driving, I'd say either the non volatile memory has an issue, or the power supply to the volatile memory that stores this information.   The other thing I'd check is if there is anywhere in the system you can adjust the date and time from. If the date/time is still moving forward since it wished you happy new year, then it is 100% possible the system has just had a bit of data corruption occur, and you likely need to find a way to reset the date/time in the vehicle.

      Scissor Jacks are an accident waiting to happen, the only time they should be used are in an roadside flat, even then a tyre and rim should be placed underneath

      You know how your car rolled through a fence in your last jacking escapade? Scissor jacks increase the likely hood of that sort of thing happening immensely!

      http://calfinn.com.au/product/1500kg-standard-trolley-jack-cj-2t-c/1500kg-standard-trolley-jack-cj-2t-c   I have this and fits under a S3 33 GTR with no issues. Purchased in 2009 and not one issue. It was $950 back then. Not cheap but something so important isn’t worth cheaping out on.

      Just trying to get my head around this. At 5psi of boost, you turn on your wmi pump, and then you're using a 3000cc injector, to allow flow upto the actual engine, where you have your 6x200cc injectors and a 500cc injector. If the above is correct, what advantage are you obtaining by having the 3000cc injector blocking flow, is this just incase a line breaks between that injector and the motor you can stop flow immediately? Or are the 6x200cc and 500cc less injectors and just spray nozzle?
