Well off I went to the last Dyno day at ALL Star tuning and what would you know, I locked my keys in the car after about 15 mins the lovely RACQ guy came and took a look:

"Yeap they certainly locked in there you twat!"

Our local hero decided to lend his expertise:

"I reckon I could punch through the window using my heroic powers, look at these biceps, are they buff or what!!!"

After calming down our local hero, as I didnt really want to replace my window, we left it to the expert, as you can see at least he knew what he was doing!

And another job well done:

"Here's your keys back you stupit GIT!

Finnally I get my keys where they are supposed to be in my hands, scary aint it!

Funny thing was because I had a stuffed battery and the ignition was left in the ON position I now had to get a push start from some of the guys hanging around laughing at my incompetence, which made them laugh harder, ahhhh what an adventure!

Cheers to krawler for the pics! :D

Was a very funny experience. I thought there were more pics than that Cyrus.

Another classic event from the day was them yelling out "who ever owns the black skyline with green stripes, move your car or it will be put into the bin"

Those were the days eh?

EDIT: We should also say thanks to the ever obliging RACQ guy who let us take his pics. Yes he thought we were weird.

ha ha ha woops.. not the only one that has done that.. my alarm locks itself after 20seconds with the doors closed... dyno place found out the hard way once was on the dyno all closed up with the alarm going off its rocker...

    • just an update to this, poor man pays twice  Tried sanding down the pulleys but it didnt do the trick. Chucked another second hand alternator in the na car which I got for free off my mate and its fixed the squelling. Must have been unlucky with the bearings.    As for my turbo car, I managed to pick up a cwc rb alternator conversion bracket + LS alternator for 250 off marketplace, looked to be in really good nick. Installed it , started the car and its not charging the battery.... ( Im not good with auto elec stuff so im not sure if this was all I needed to do but I verified such by using a multimeter on the battery when the engine was running and I was only getting 12.2v )   I had to modify the earth strap for the new LS alternator , factory earth strap was a 10mm bolt which did not fit the bolt on the LS alternator which was double the size so I cut it off , went to repco bought some ring terminals that fit, crimped it onto the old earth strap and bolted it up to the alternator , started the car and same issue. Ran like shit and was reading 12.2 at the battery.  For a "plug and play" advertised kit thats not very plug and play but alas.  My question is , am I missing something ? Ive been reading that some people recommend upgrading the stock 80 amp alternator fuse to a 140 amp but I dont see how that would stop the alternator charging especially at idle not under load.  Regardless ive pulled it out and am going to get it bench tested by an auto elec tomorrow but it would be handy to know if ive missed something silly or have done something wrong.   
    • My wild guess is that you have popped off an intake pipe....check all of the hoses between the turbo and the throttle for splits or loose clamps.
    • Awesome, thanks for sharing!
    • To provide more specific help, more information is needed. What Android screen? What is its wiring diagram? Does the car's wiring have power at any required BAT and ACC wires, and is the loom's earth good?
    • So, now all you need to do is connect the 2 or 3x 12v feeds into the unit to permanent 12v, ACC 12V and IGN 12V that you can find in the spot behind the stereo, and the earth, and then it will switch on with the car.
