YEah well as the title says...

I paid to park my car in this "security" parking place while I went over to Brissy for easter...

I get back and all my stereo, performance gear and even my damn wing were stolen!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! :cuss:

So i lodge the claim with their insurance.... Coz I dont have that sort of cover for my car. (thus the reason for paying for security parking)

3 weeks go by and I get a letter in the mail stating that they "believe" the company had provided "adequate" means of security.

CRAP!!!!!!!!!

So how is a full fence, with electrified INNER wires supposed to stop ppl??

Alledgedly, the offenders dug under the fence, broke thru the concrete barrier under the fence, cut thru the wire buried in the ground, then proceeded to venture across the poorly lit car lot to my car. Remove the car cover, break 2 windows and remove all the gear. Setting off my car alarm in the process....

My question is... If the security is so good, how can the offenders have enought time to do all this and get away>??????? :confused:

So now i'm left to fight them thru the court system, $16000 to repair and replace everything, therefore out of pocket till I get some sort of resolve.

I DO NOT RECOMMEND TRUSTING YOUR VEHICLE TO ANY SUCH COMPANY

As you all may undrestand, I'm a lil bit upset by it all.

Firstly my baby being broken into, and now the slap in the face from their insurance company.

I'm gonna fight them all the way.

Who's with me??

    • Yeah, nah. I had the actuator rod off it today. The arm will not move at all. Neither out, nor in. Yeah, you'd think so, but I've been thinking about that. Even when the actuator rod fell all the way off at the beginning of this saga, it would build more boost and faster in lower gears than it would in higher gears, and you'd think that that was the opposite of what should happen. But I strongly suspect that there is a thing with the gearing getting the revs to rise faster, that there must be some transient effect with the gas flow rate rising quickly, that you don't get with the more steady state case of the higher gears. Keep in mind - the gate is not shut in either of my weirdnesses. So things are not "normal". We normally think about a turbo spooling up (below the wastegate target) with the gate shut. I have all sorts of mental models running now where the gate is a little bit open, and having it stuck open allowing gas out while it should be going through the turbine has all sorts of weird effects (in these mental models). I'm thinking in the higher gears, the ex mani pressure builds to the point where enough gases spill out the wastegate to just prevent the pressure rising much more at all, or just creeping up, all the whole the revs are increasing and getting closer to the point where a gear shift becomes necessary.
    • Is it possibly wastegate actuator itself is sticking, or even the rod to flapper? Otherwise I reckon things are getting a bit rusty/worn   Also odd it won't boost in 3rd to 5th, but will in 1st, I'd expect the other way around with it slightly open as there's more time on your way to redline for it to spin up
    • Does anyone know ow what these two plugs are for and if they should be unplugged? Just put the dash back together and can't remember if these were plugged in before or unplugged! (Blue and white plugs) 🤦🏽‍♂️
    • Did some FASTing ...got the impression that the actual part# was a moot point ; seems all of these hardlines for coolant are discontinued/NLA... like, I take it you're after the hardline that bolts onto to the manifold...that's NLA according to amayama & nengun .... ...just to clear up some confusion, they typically mounted the AAC valve to the intake manifold somewhere near a coolant passage, so the body of the valve heats up & holds it open when engine's up to temp - no coolant flows through the valve, it's a mechanical, thermal connection.
    • And now the bloody flapper is jammed slightly open. Lazy as all f**k in 3rd-5th (very hard to convince it to make much boost before you run out of revs), but will make 12 psi in 1st, which shouldb't be possible with a 5 psi spring and controller set to <10 psi. Methinks I'm lucky it jammed where it did, rather than fully closed. It's actually a well weird situation. Careful examination of what's happening in the back of that housing when the gearbox comes out and all the other stuff (injectors, AFM retune) is supposed to be done, next week.
