Mugabetown - Whoretownin' At It's Worst.


Recommended Posts

They're a super complex intricate mind field maze of an engine definitely super technical and difficult lol

Working for a jeep dealership that's Different avenue man how'd that come about

Haha yeah I've poked around inside a couple before. They are well made, I'll give them that much.

I'm glad you picked the 5.7 and not the 5.0L. What a f**king piece of garbage those things are.

Not a Jeep dealership. 4WD workshop that specialises in Jeeps. Apparently I'm their 'tech guy'.

I get to do a lot of cool stuff there. Different stuff you don't normally see in a regular mech workshop. I like using my brain a little so it's still interesting to work there.

I'm doing night school at the same time though. Freshening up on some old hat skills I lost years ago

Would never use a dirty 5l but on a very sad side not there is a 5l r33 getting around qld :( it even has a vs commo front bar ffs

I can offer advise, whether it's good or not would be another story.

Probably the best person in the entire world you can talk to is Marty White from John White Race Engines. He can even build it for you if you want a tough engine. Marty has specialised in v8 killer engines for decades (read 30+ years). They build all that sorta stuff for the speedboats they race. 1000+hp N/A etc

Long long long story that I'm still not sure I understand... I'm not involved so i keep my loud mouth out of it

It's not worth understanding. Better to forget and move on.

It had a lot to do with no one wanting to do the work the club needed to get where it needed, people putting their hand up because they knew it needed to be done and no one else would do it, then everyone complaining about how the job was done or whatever. That's basically the general gist of what went down....for about 6 years

Yep yep, is he still out if gympie?

I believe he built my uncles speedway engine not so long back :)

Shit! sorry I tagged that f**king aweful photo back in...

Haha yep, I felt so bad when i saw it at qr... I automatically understood how diehard Nissan fans saw my car.

But my car dosent have a dirty slow heavy 5l in it.... The thing could barley turn tire let alone drift

I'm not sure exactly where he moved to. He used to be in Deshon St Woolloongabba next to Chilton Engineering but moved about a year ago.

If you are doing the work all yourself, I'd offer him money to give you advise. He's an extremely busy man but if you are paying for a little of his time, I'm sure you'll get every bit of info you need

    • 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.
