Mugabetown - Whoretownin' At It's Worst.


Recommended Posts

Morning all.

So...last nights drive was eventfull...
The bad,

1. Zeke's mate was supposed to be coming along in his Civic...he didn't tell us there was 10 other P platers with him as well...
2. My car started to smell like burning oil very badly. This was because the oil filler cap came off, either because I didn't put it on or because I put it on loose, and sprayed oil all over the engine bay.
3. While checking I had enough oil to drive the car safely I picked up a stick I the rear guard.
4. At the end of the run I put my thong on and didn't see the bull ant that was hiding at the end. From then on I had some very painful toes.
5. Car was still smelling of burning oil.
6. Picked up another, larger, stick with my rear bumper.
7. Cleaned up the easter bunny/hare at about 80 km/h. Sorry kids, no easter next year.

The good,
1. No one broke anything.
2. Pete blows awesome flames like Zeke.
3. Awesome drive with no unwanted attention.
4. Happened to meet up with Carl and a few of the EVO guys for a nice chat.
5. 1 less rabbit/hare in Queensland.

As long as all the cars stay shiny side up they are good night's despite all the random happenings! The random stuff is one of the main parts that makes it fun and interesting.

We were all fine, just heard from Carl that one of the EVO's kissed a guard rail with the rear quarter on the way down. Car was mostly alright other than a wrecked panel.

    • For fuelling the Haltechs have O2WB fuel controllers. Very useful for helping tuning VE and correcting for *small* mistakes. Of course if your injector/cam/trigger/sensor data is just wrong (or for a GTT which is not a GT) then you will get impossible reactions to things. I am sure you know this already but the reason people don't typically put haltechs (or any Aftermarket ECU) on GT's is because there's practically no real gains to be had - So this knowledge won't be commonplace.
    • Can someone tell me if the cracks seen in the rear sway bar bushings in these photo's is unacceptable from a roadworthy point of view?  
    • Shouldn't need a "base map" for anything other than guidance to ignition tuning. You just need the engine capacity right, the injector size right, and something, almost anything, for a VE map. On an NA engine, fuelling is almost completely a function of load signal & rpm. It should run and drive with a completely flat fuel map. It will be too lean under load, but that's easily fixed. We used to tune all ECUs without any base map. There were no such things (until someone had tuned a near stock engine on one, and then they had a "base map".
    • What did you actually buy/how much did it cost? When I got mine in like.. 2017...? 2019? the aim was to run Torque for gauges via ODB2 and things like Track Addict/Laptimers/Dashcam/Reversecam/Spotify etc. Mine never broke, but I wonder if you've got the same needs (it sounds like it). Cause I liked the idea of being able to do anything with it. That said, yours also cost 3x the cost of what I spent so... food for thought.  
    • For me there is a massive difference in manufacturer or big brand crippled android (Sony, Kenwood etc) vs the sort of thing I've installed here, which is basically just a tablet in DIN form factor with open Android, and the other model of course is mirroring - Android Auto/Carplay. I hate the locked down manufacturer and AA options where they decide what apps I'm allowed to install, including the Launcher but also importantly things like Ecutek (for this car) or Real Dash (Stagea) are not supported. Plus those crippled versions tend to be slower due to both overheads and lower spec hardware. On the other hand, when this breaks I'll likely be in trouble for support....but how is that different to owning an Infiniti anyway
