Mugabetown - Whoretownin' At It's Worst.


Recommended Posts

Its Ok. I have survived multiple happy laps at lakeside! White GTR and all.

You have to be a special type of dumb to have an incident at happy laps. Sprint days are another matter however.

exactly mate.

You would be fine around lakeside ants. Just go at a pace you're comfortable with. I did a few lakeside happylaps and had no dramas and last time I checked I had a white 32 gtr

But have you checked it this morning ;)

Well I haven't heard it start all morning, am at home today as I fu*ked up my ankle playing touch footy last night. But am still going to hobble out to check on her

What ant's said, Externally it is all cosmetic, a few cracks in the bar and the alignment of the spaces between body parts is f**ked. Beaver tail has been pushed in and the boot has been impacted into slightly. Unsure of any impact on the mechanical side of it at this point.

After checking the clutch fan it really looks like its stuffed. I think the damaged was caused when the fan blades came into contact with the either the belt or a pulley under high RPM. (not my doing).

Looks like the cost to replace with a new one is approx. $550 bucks just for the clutch itself. The Fan costs apporx $100.

Sext's received. I agree it doesnt look too bad in the pictures but its never good getting pumped from behind..... :ph34r::ph34r:

yeah its not Scotty. The only problem is that with things like that is that you dont fully know the extent of the damage untill you look deeper.

Plus the the whole inconvenience of everything is hurtful and when it happens to your baby............well it hurts even more.

But in time, I think that the B@mobile ( :P ) will be back in action.

To be honest that sounds like something that shouldve been noticed and fixed while it was in the shop.

    • Lock me in mate, although I'm not sure if I'll be heading up from Goulburn or down from Sydney, either way, return will be back to Goulburn 
    • Sounds good, we will aim to be there! @The Bogan I'll give you a shout if you are heading up to campbelltown for the meet too.
    • Before I get to the test day, just to finish off the android head unit. This is a demo from car start up....the standard/host system takes a few seconds to boot (same as all v37) but Android comes up quickly. In this vid I'm using the delivered launcher but have set the default to Agami since which is easier to navigate when if use primarily 5 apps. You can see the host system still takes over when required eg putting it in reverse, and you can switch between Android and not by holding the back button 3 sec. It is pretty responsive (fast) but you can see I had to press harder than expected a couple of times.  I still have the phone connected to the stock system, and that also seamlessly takes over Android music playing. v37-android-demo.mp4 The bigger reason that I put this in though is so that I can use Ecutek directly on the head unit. That gives me a dash with logging (up to 20MB only), high and low value warnings on any parameter etc etc. I've run a USB cable from the Ecutek OBD dongle to a USB input on the unit, easy. v37-ecutek-demo.mp4   The unit did freeze on the launcher the other day, I think Agami was trying to verify the license when it didn't have a data connection...will monitor and report back if there are any other problems but so far I'm very happy with the upgrade.
    • Nah that is just crappy GPS mapping, I did have a small excursion (cold tyres, damp track, surprise!), will post up that when I get a chance.
    • So 10/10 times that code is coil packs? I mean if that's the case ill drop the $400USD or so to replace them. I didn't know these cars threw codes before the issue became an issue.
