its all sitting in the corner of my shed.

no lines cut, the whole thing, come and take it away if you want it.

only problem is if it dont fit then you have a big pile of sht in your shed to get rid of.

are ya feelin lucky?

Went for a nice drive out of town to test out the new radiator.

Success! Overheating issue solved ==)

Now just to find the rattle/knocking at 120kmph... :wacko:

Private Roads... Gotta love 'em!!! :ninja:

So what Radiator did you end up getting? What coolant you using? Did the fan shroud fit? Thermo sensor? Still using the Clutch Fan?

Check for Stray current that may cause your radiator to eat itself in less than a month? So many questions... :laugh:

I got a 42mm chinese ebay one. http://www.ebay.com.au/itm/190700402072?ssPageName=STRK:MEWNX:IT&_trksid=p3984.m1497.l2649

fit straight in perfect. stock fan, shroud and sensor no problems. didn't check for current (forgot)

Using Tectaloy 50/50 premix with glycol (or whatever it is. i'm tired and cant be bothered to think, lol)

Gave the pod filter a good clean. DAMN that thing was filthy!!!! and made a new bracket. to hold it in place nicely..

Now just waiting for boost gauge to start next step =)

I think the only issue that would arise would be capturing other people's info like car, rego. Privacy Act is a touch and go thing in AUS. Hence why when cops pull you over with recording devices they say that they are recording you as a pre warning.

Are they allowed for insurance reasons, if given the police officer in question asks about it? Not real sure how to avoid other people's privacy but given it's a public place, recording and taking photos is allowed generally.

Record everything and let the courts worry about it

This.

Also yeah Jeremy I'd think being in public, you're right that there's very little 'privacy' against photos etc...

A myth/rumour I'd like to know the truth behind though, is the one I always hear about it being illegal to record conversations with police officers (sound or video) when you're pulled over for example - even if you advise them you're recording. Anyone know the go with this?

From my understanding and not sure against Feds but, you have to advise whether or not you are recording video/sound (or not). The police officer will then request for you to either turn it off (Which you have to) or he will acknowldge and proceed with defecting you :P

Anyone have any cop m8's? My m8 has a cop friend. Might get him to ask him. Also, becareful, you can be arrested for not having more then $5 on you at all times (True law - but not policed :P) Infact, a guy in Melbourne got recently questioned for not having any money on him - mind you he lost his wallet.

Funny laws.

    • It would be different if the sealant hadn't started to peel up with gaps in the glue about ~6cm and bigger in some areas. I would much prefer not having to do the work take them off the car . However, the filler the owner put in the roof rack mount cavities has shrunk and begun to crack on the rail delete panels. I cant trust that to hold off moisture ingress especially where I live. Not only that but I have faded paint on as well as on either side of these panels, so they would need to come off to give the roofline a proper respray. My goal is to get in there and put a healthy amount of epoxy instead of panel filler/bog and potentially skin with carbon fiber. I have 2 spare rolls from an old motorcycle fairing project from a few years back and I think it'd be a nice touch on a black stag.  I've seen some threads where people replace their roof rack delete with a welded in sheet metal part. But has anyone re-worked the roof rails themselves? It seems like there is a lot of volume there to add in some threads and maybe a keyway for a quick(er) release roof rack system. Not afraid to mill something out if I have to. It would be cool to have a cross bar only setup. That way I can keep the sleek roofline that would accept a couple bolts to gain back that extra utility  3D print some snazzy covers to hide the threaded section to be thorough and keep things covered when not using the rack. 
    • Probably not. A workshop grade scantool is my go to for proper Consult interrogation. Any workshop grade tool should do it. Just go to a workshop.
    • In my head it does make sense to be a fuel problem since that is what I touched when cleaning the system. When I was testing with the fuel pressure gauge, the pressure was constantly 2.5 bar with the FPR vacuum removed. When stalling, the pressure was going up to 3.0 bar (which is how it should be on ignition).
    • ECUtalk pages don't mention they support the ABS computer (consult port has more than one CAN), so you might just need a different scan tool. But, I would expect ABS is a different light to the brake warning/handbrake light, do you see an ABS light come on for a few seconds when you turn the key from ACC to IGN? But since you said: I'd have a look at the ABS sensors in the rear hubs to make sure they are not damaged, disconnected etc.
    • OK, if it idles at 1000+ with the AAC, its not an idle airflow problem. The cold start valve just gives extra air when the engine is cold, but you have enough air without it to idle at 1000. I think you are back to a fuel problem, sorry. Can you see the fuel pressure staying constant or does it drop as the revs drop to a stall?
