Mugabetown - Whoretownin' At It's Worst.


Recommended Posts

Speaking of tax dollars, repeal day was yesterday. What are Mr Ants' thoughts on the matter?

About bloody time!

I welcome these amendments in fact I could almost kiss them.

We live in a really wonderful country that offers incredible opportunities to the ones that are searching for it compared to other well developed countries. HOWEVER, the level of bureaucracy in Australia has been on the rise for quite a number of years and not only is it burdensome to us all but has prohibited Australia to become more competitive as well.

Removal of the so called ‘red tape’ is certainly a welcoming measure and will assist businesses carrying on what they do best and that is concentrating on their business operations.

Australia is simply too highly regulated and having the need to have a watchdog for every sector is simply not viable and canning the watchdog for charities is fine by me especially since the ATO has been already been administering these duties already.

The reduction of compliance requirement within the future of financial advice act (FOFA) is a doubled edge sword though……….I know many financial advisers that do the right thing by their clients and do not even accept commissions and as such would benefit from yesterdays reduced regulation, HOWEVER, it is other gung-ho financial advisers that need such regulations in place to keep them in check. I think that other controls should be put introduced like maybe force each financial advisers (of certain size) to establish a risk committee within their organisation to mitigate any potential abuse or self-interest arising and reports from the committee can then be audited / reviewed by ASIC (just an suggestion I thought of as a middle ground)

This is only scratching the surface, more unnecessary regulations need to be removed at Federal level and especially at State government level; take a look at your local councils for example, you need a form for a form to get another form these days, thus only adding to the frustration of us general household consumers to try and do the right thing i.e. could be getting soil testing done, permits, etc….

Much more to be done but this is a good start.

There's definitely a lot more that needs to be done but it's a great start. The number of people working in government in antiquated divisions is remarkable...

The filter in the RB, while not difficult, could be a lot easier. Magic Mike wins that round

Ls1 oil filter, directly at the bottom with nothing in the way and you don't end up with oil on your block

I hate spark plugs on any rb with a crossover pipe. Again not difficult but well annoying

Spark plugs on an ls1, open bonnet take of lead unscrew put in new plug put on lead close bonnet

    • Oil change does not trigger code 21. Code 21 is for coilpacks primary side connection. You can try to clear the code with a battery disconnect, hold down the brake pedal to drain capacitors through the brake lights with the ignition on for 10-15 seconds before you reconnect the battery. I have seen R35 coil conversion permanently cause this code with no ill effects so it might be the resistance it wants to see isn't quite right on one or more coilpacks. Could be inside the ECU, could be the harness, could be a coil. You can test it all if you want or just ignore until the car actually starts misfiring.
    • I forgot you have a Nistune ECU. Use Nistune to do all the tests I mentioned instead of faffing with 30+ year old electrical connectors. You can read MAF volts off that too, there are reference values in the service manual to tell you roughly what it should be in different conditions.
    • No. I think it might be the AFM. Hence the use of the terms "swaptronics", which implies the use of swapping out electronics for the purpose of diagnosis. It's about the only way to prove that a small/niggling/whatever problem with an AFM or a CAS or similar is actually caused by that AFM/CAS/whatever. A known good item swapped in that still gives the same problem is likely to be caused somewhere else. They're all the same. Spraying AFMs with cleaner is an each way bet between cleaning it and f**king it.
    • Oh wow! This might actually work amazingly. Do you know the ratio of the diff? I was told the only thing you need to make sure of is if the front & rear diff ratios are the same. Ours is a 4.083 Thanks!
    • You think its the AFM? I know its a common issues on R32s. I find it coincidental how this issue raised right after cleaning the fuel system. As everything except the fuel system was fine before. I tried running it with the IACV unplugged but did not notice a difference and still stalled. However, the RPM gauge is not in the cluster right now, so I will need to connect the laptop again and use Nistune to check the RPM. I will check this weekend.
