DEAR,

I AM MR.KOFFI AHMED THE SON OF THE LATE SIERRA-LEONIAN BUSINESSMAN,

LATE ALH.AHMED MUTENDE THE OWNER OF (UMS) MINING COMPANY IN

SIERRA-LEONE, WHO DIED 7 MONTHS AGO WHEN THE REVOLUTIONARY UNITED FRONT REBELS

(R.U.F)ATTACKED OUR RESIDENCE IN MAKENI COUNTY OF SIERRA-LEONE.

FOLLOWING THE CURRENT CEASE FIRE AGREEMENT WHICH WAS REACHED WITH THE

HELP OF UNITED NATION PEACE KEEPING TROOPS,I USED THE OPPOTURNITY TO

LEAVE THE COUNTRY WITH A VERY IMPORTANT DOCUMENT OF (USD$21.3M)TWENTY ONE

MILLION THREE HUNDRED THOUSAND U.S DOLLARS.

THIS DOCUMENT IS A CERTIFICATE ISSUED TO MY LATE FATHER BY A SECURITY COMPANY

IN LOME, THE CAPITAL CITY OF TOGO, IN MY NAME FOR THE DEPOSIT OF A BOX

CONTAINING THE ABOVE FUND.

BEFORE MY FATHER DIED HE INFORMED ME OF IT AND ASLO TOLD ME TO BE CAREFUL

BECAUSE THE SECURITY COMPANY OFFICIALS ARE NOT AWARE THAT THE BOX IS CONTAING

MONEY.

ALTHOUGH THIS MONEY WAS REALISED FROM THE SALES OF GOLD AND DIAMOND BUT IT IS

NOT IN DISPUT.

NOW THAT I AM SEEKING ASYLUM IN LOME-TOGO AS A REFUGEE MY MAIN REASON

OF CONTACTING YOU IS BECAUSE I RECEIVED A CALL FROM THE SECURITY COMPANY

WARNING THAT I SHOULD MAKE HASTE TO DISLODGE THE BOX OR I LOOSE IT TO

HIGH DUMURRAGE RATE WHICH HAS PILLED UP SINCE 7 MONTHS UP TILL DATE.

THEY ADVISED THAT I SHOULD PRESENT THE CRTIFICATE AS THE NEXT OF KIN HENCE THE

BOX IS DEPOSITED TO MY FAVOR, BUT CONSIDERING MY STATUS HERE AS A REFUGEE I

NEED YOUR ASSISTANCE.

I WANT TO PRESENTYOU TO THE SECURITY COMPANY AS THE BENEFICIARY, A FRIEND TO MY

LATE FATHER.

THEN AFTER RETRIEVING THE BOX FROM THE SECURITY COMPANY YOU WILL

ASSIST ME MOVE THE MONEY TO YOUR COUNTRY.

I ONLY WANT THIS DONE THIS WAY BECAUSE YOUR COUNTRY IS POLITICALLY

SUITABLE FOR ANY PROFITABLE INVESTMENT, WHICH WILL EMPHASIZE THE UNIQUINES OF

THE MONEY.

HOWEVER I CONTACTED YOU BASED ON YOUR CAPABILITY AND VAST KNOWLEDGE ON

INTERNATIONAL COMMERCIAL INVESTMENT.

MY AIM OF CONTACTING YOU IS PRECISELY FOR YOU TO ASSIST ME IN THE

FOLLOWING WAYS:-

(1) TO HELP ME STAND AS THE BENEFICIARY.

(2) TO HELP ME TRANSFER THE MONEY TO YOUR COUNTRY.

(2) TO HELP ME GET A PROFITABLE BUSINESS TO INVEST THE

FUND BASED ON YOUR PROFESSIONAL ADVISE.

FOR YOUR ASSISTANCE AND CO-OPERATION I AM WILLING TO GIVE YOU 25 %OF

THE TOTAL SUM REALISED AFTER THE SUCESSFULL UPLIFT OF THIS FUND TO YOUR

COUNTRY.

PLEASE KINDLY COMMUNICATE YOUR ACCEPTANCE OF THIS MAIL SO THAT WE CAN

DISCUSS THE MODALITIES OF SEEING THIS TRANSACTION THROUGH.

I COUNT ON YOU GREATLY FOR YOUR ASSISTANCE.

AWAITING TO HEAR FROM YOU SOON.

SINCERELY,

MR.KOFFI AHMED

    • Even more fun, leave all the ADAS stuff plugged in, but in different locations, hopefully avoid any codes!   And honestly, all these new cars with their weird electronics. Pull all the electronics out Duncan, and just shove an aftermarket ECU and if needed a trans controller in, along with a PDM. Make it run basic but race car styled!
    • 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.
