rural, fridge was probably older than the house. maybe if the entire wall was black or whole power point was black would you worry.

Martin turning on fridge for the first time:

 

it was the place in melb, fridge bee there for 10 years moved it the otherday for first time and saw that power point.

 

as it is I have surge and UPS on every thing else as they blow up with the electrics in this place.

 

oh well out of here tomorrow.

Looks like I've cracked the gas bill mystery. Meter reader got a digit wrong...
Used 25 cubic meters, not 225 cubic meters. I guess a 3 can sort of look like a 5? Meter was still covered in cobwebs

That's what I said happened to my old man a few posts up ^^^

Bit of a boring race yesterday, once Riciardo dropped out of the running the crowd lost a lot of interest.. was good watching them for a bit but gets repetitive seeing no overtakes, left about half way through the race. On another note the V8 supercars were pretty cool.

Need to go to bathurst.

or even better for a specator Winton is great as most of the front straight area you can see the entire track from one spot

 

if in the country thinking of doing corporate area this year

thus 24 beers a day.

All historic races are awesome, one of my car bucket lists is to go to goodwood revival (been to the Festival of speed so this is next)


Also best racing in Au in my books currently is the Touring car Masters followed by the GT series (basiclly GT3 cup) then the supercars.



 

I know the telstra is the worst, but sometimes it would be nice to be pleasantly surprised.
Day 10 of no broadband and someone today suggested to pickup a dongle from the store and call billing and get them to take data from your plan to the dongle. Why hasn't any of the numerous people I've spoken to not suggested this before??! f**king hell.
And one of my old friends from school does or used to work for telstra as a complaints manager or something, he's been sending emails or something and lo n behold nothing has changed. Call centre shooting emails left right and centre and nothing happens. They talk like it's a strange situation and quite rare, yeah bullshit. 50,000 TIO complaints a year directed to Telstra don't lie.

It's not just Telstra it's all ISPs, I've had bad experiences with the lot of em through work.

Less with the smaller ones (TPG etc. but that's purely because less of our customers use them)

TIO complaint got me out of the GFs shitty ADSL connection with MYreplublic, after numerous 1 hour + waiting in queue to their call center.. now using Optus 200GB 4g gateway for $70 a month. Hacked the modem to lock it to 4G 2300mhz to keep the speeds at 12mbps down.. thats the best we can do at her place. No cable, ADSL got 500ms ping and <1mbps. and ofcourse no nbn

    • I guess one thing that might be wrong is the manifold pressure.  It is a constant -5.9 and never moves even under 100% throttle and load.  I would expect it to atleast go to 0 correct?  It's doing this with the OEM MAP as well as the ECU vacuum sensor. When trying to tune the base map under load the crosshairs only climb vertically with RPM, but always in the -5.9 column.
    • AHHHH gotchaa, I'll do that once I am home again. I tried doing the harness with the multimeter but it seems the car needed a jump, there was no power when it was in the "ON" position. Not sure if I should use car battery jump starter or if its because the stuff that has been disconnect the car just does send power.
    • As far as I can tell I have everything properly set in the Haltech software for engine size, injector data, all sensors seem to be reporting proper numbers.  If I change any injector details it doesnt run right.    Changing the base map is having the biggest change in response, im not sure how people are saying it doesnt really matter.  I'm guessing under normal conditions the ECU is able to self adjust and keep everything smooth.   Right now my best performance is happening by lowering the base map just enough to where the ECU us doing short term cut of about 45% to reach the target Lambda of 14.7.  That way when I start putting load on it still has high enough fuel map to not be so lean.  After 2500 rpm I raised the base map to what would be really rich at no load, but still helps with the lean spots on load.  I figure I don't have much reason to be above 2500rpm with no load.  When watching other videos it seems their target is reached much faster than mine.  Mine takes forever to adjust and reach the target. My next few days will be spent making sure timing is good, it was running fine before doing the ECU and DBW swap, but want to verify.  I'll also probably swap in the new injectors I bought as well as a walbro 255 pump.  
    • It would be different if the sealant hadn't started to peel up with gaps in the glue about ~6cm and bigger in some areas. I would much prefer not having to do the work take them off the car . However, the filler the owner put in the roof rack mount cavities has shrunk and begun to crack on the rail delete panels. I cant trust that to hold off moisture ingress especially where I live. Not only that but I have faded paint on as well as on either side of these panels, so they would need to come off to give the roofline a proper respray. My goal is to get in there and put a healthy amount of epoxy instead of panel filler/bog and potentially skin with carbon fiber. I have 2 spare rolls from an old motorcycle fairing project from a few years back and I think it'd be a nice touch on a black stag.  I've seen some threads where people replace their roof rack delete with a welded in sheet metal part. But has anyone re-worked the roof rails themselves? It seems like there is a lot of volume there to add in some threads and maybe a keyway for a quick(er) release roof rack system. Not afraid to mill something out if I have to. It would be cool to have a cross bar only setup. That way I can keep the sleek roofline that would accept a couple bolts to gain back that extra utility  3D print some snazzy covers to hide the threaded section to be thorough and keep things covered when not using the rack. 
    • Probably not. A workshop grade scantool is my go to for proper Consult interrogation. Any workshop grade tool should do it. Just go to a workshop.
