Now that we've made some of y'all some money, sell when you think you've had enough stress / have earned a tidy profit and then you can never lose.

Or...stay with me and go down with the sinking ship / into the clouds with the oil gods. Have a mate on hot copper who is currently worth 1.4 million after today's gains. Massive investment and risk but, wow. Hope to join him one day.

You're on your own!

bikes are good eh

"On Saturday i had a little motorbike accident in the Bush. Bike is in pretty good shape however after getting up and walking around, then a painful drive to the hospital, found out I have a fractured left hand, fractured right elbow, and a fractured vertebrae in my neck. Had surgery on the neck on Monday, came home yesterday, and with a bit of r&r should be back to my usual self in no time, apart from the very attractive necklace i have to wear for the next 4-6 weeks"

but for those 10 rides or less a year, im free.

would rather get injured on dirt bike i guess than death on road

or do what dezz does and go track only, ive been doing few track days lately.. mad fun

yeah i guess track is much friendlier conditions. and you have more choice over how hard you want to push yourself.

such a minor mistake is game over man, though.

Got my 2x speeding fines from QLD. Both on the same road, same side-of-road-camera, two different days and different directions, both 70 in a 60 zone.

Would have to have been poorly signed...

Or maybe it's that damn non-linear Speedo on the golf hire car.

negro plees, the f**kin auto is in Prius mode 24/7 which means 7th gear at +40km/h

Last hire car I had was an i30, for some unknown reason it had a Traction Control button

It's engine is enough traction control by itself

did you play with the sports button on that?

The only difference I could find was that the steering sped up, no additional feel or holding gears or suspension, just a button that changes the speed of the power steering...

a button that changes the steering rack ratio is fairly impressive.

a car with 7 forward gears but only really uses 3 of them, not so much.

and a speedo that goes 0-10-20-30-40-60-80, seriously, why??? just do it after 120. only used to autobahn and private roads anyway

electric steering makes this very easy.

    • Yeah well per the video it took 15s for the stock unit to start up....even if I give it a few seconds discount for starting that is at least 12 sec before you get a reverse camera if you are trying to leave a park.  The android unit is way faster, but 2016 for the stock unit is a long time ago in consumer electronics
    • Yea that’s why I said ima test them with multimeter and see the reads.
    • Only at idle. Isn’t a problem when rev it seems.
    • @Haggerty This seems silly to ask, but are you confident in your ability to tune the Haltech?  
    • Next on the to-do list was an oil and filter change. Nothing exciting to add here except the oil filter is in a really stupid place (facing the engine mount/subframe/steering rack). GReddy do a relocation kit which puts it towards the gearbox, I would have preferred towards the front but there's obviously a lot more stuff there. Something I'll have to look at for the next service perhaps. First time using Valvoline oil, although I can't see it being any different to most other brands Nice... The oil filter location... At least the subframe wont rust any time soon I picked up a genuine fuel filter, this is part of the fuel pump assembly inside the fuel tank. Access can be found underneath the rear seat, you'll see this triangular cover Remove the 3x plastic 10mm nuts and lift the cover up, pushing the rubber grommet through The yellow fuel line clips push out in opposite directions, remove these completely. The two moulded fuel lines can now pull upwards to disconnect, along with the wire electrical plug. There's 8x 8mm bolts that secure the black retaining ring. The fuel pump assembly is now ready to lift out. Be mindful of the fuel hose on the side, the hose clamp on mine was catching the hose preventing it from lifting up The fuel pump/filter has an upper and lower section held on by 4 pressure clips. These did take a little bit of force, it sounded like the plastic tabs were going to break but they didn't (don't worry!) The lower section helps mount the fuel pump, there's a circular rubber gasket/grommet/seal thing on the bottom where the sock is. Undo the hose clip on the short fuel hose on the side to disconnect it from the 3 way distribution pipe to be able to lift the upper half away. Don't forget to unplug the fuel pump too! There's a few rubber O rings that will need transferring to the new filter housing, I show these in the video at the bottom of this write up. Reassembly is the reverse Here's a photo of the new filter installed, you'll be able to see where the tabs are more clearing against the yellow OEM plastic Once the assembly is re-installed, I turned the engine over a few times to help build up fuel pressure. I did panic when the car stopped turning over but I could hear the fuel pump making a noise. It eventually started and has been fine since. Found my 'lucky' coin underneath the rear seat too The Youtube video can be seen here: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=uLJ65pmQt44&t=6s
