Yeah I'm paranoid about this living alone, so try and keep my eye out when I go out if any new cars sitting in the street or dodgy random behaviours, got motorbike / trailer locked up etc.

They are the ultimate turn your brain off movies; the cult following arguably appeared because people took the piss out of the first movie, even if it's now ironically the most realistic one. Producers cashed in on the appeal to ridiculous action? Can't help but wonder if they'd have been as successful if the storylines and action were kept to a more realistic level and cop/racing plots, drugs/gangs etc. instead of the James Bond stuff. I doubt it. The cars feel very much an afterthought in the movies - literally would have been the last inclusion in the writing where they were just looking for places to include performance cars in a film no longer about them. Lambo in the snow? Movie could have worked without any of the cars.

no different to avengers, super hero movies, pretty well all films could be under this banner.

 

you don't pay money to go see a documentary, you go to be entertained for 2 hours by things that go bang.

 

Not seen it yet but will prob go in next couple weeks just for shit and giggles.

On another note, just saw DECA results - only 34 cars? I guess that's what happens when it's put on the F1 weekend? :\ 

Keen for the next one as didn't make this one..

Why do people go see it when they KNOW it's gonna be silly, stupid, unrealistic shenanigans yet still LOVE to complain about it after paying to see it on release week?! 

Maybe they see it so they can complain? See previous post about cult following because people can take the piss out of it...

I expect ridiculous action but they could at least put effort into the writing of the plot which has never been awful...and keep in mind continuity for the previous movies...would take about 20 hours of work for a movie that costs 250 million. I felt much more connected to the characters in the previous films. Maybe absence of Brian?

as of about 4 months ago.

 

no new policies and all current to be spit between AAMI and Shannons depending on the car.

no great loss really had the combined worst bits of AAMI and shannons in one ugly package. and no real lost of competition as the same company ran all three anyhow.

    • My bad, I unplugged the one underlined in red instead of yellow before. With the car started, after unplugging the IACV (the one underlined in yellow), it idled at around 400/500 for 3 seconds before stalling. Attempting to start the car without the IACV will not start the car.   It does stutter and sputter for around 5 seconds before dying. However, immediately after starting it, you can already hear some slight sputters from the exhaust.   It won't start with the AFM unplugged. If it is when the car has already started, it stalls in a few seconds.   Yesterday, I did take some logs using Nistune of 3 scenarios. Car idling till it stalls Car idling and unplugging the IACV Car idling and removing the AFM I also have some previous logs of when the Car is idling till it stalls and when driving and it cuts. I am not really knowledgeable enough to understand what to look for. After every test, car idles rougher and rougher, until I have to stop. It will be fine the day after.
    • There is no difference between a 17x8 and an 18x8. The total diameter of the tyre needs to remain +/- the same (so you don't mess up the gearing, speedo reading, and clearance when turning front wheels..... so you just need to use a lower profile tyre on th 18 than you do on the 17. /rocket surgery.
    • I thought the same to start with. But then I thought it was one of those LCAs where the end of the ARB goes through a bushing in the LCA itself, instead of having an end link.
    • Yeah - I mean, go the other way. Smaller range. Not larger.
    • To re-cap, I bought: https://www.alibaba.com/product-detail/Lsailt-8G-Infiniti-Q50-Q60-2014_1601171829627.html?spm=a2756.trade-list-buyer.0.0.2cd476e9FTIlKE As you can see, if I bought 20 it was $653, but I bought 1 so it was $1,170. I was very tempted to buy 2 and resell 1 at 25% cheaper. @MBS206, I am not sure if they do a Kluger one, here is their list but it might be there under a global model name: http://www.lsailt.com/product/android-interface?page=1 Keep in mind these full android replacements have basically all the bits a phone does (cpu, ram, storage, wifi, bluetooth, usb interfaces) other than a screen (it uses a host), thus the $800+ cost. Android Auto screen mirroring is MUCH cheaper as it's just a cut down shell, input mirroring and output mirroring BTW I also need that "screen off" feature, it is much harder to see wildlife even if a dash is reasonably dark. Both the Fuga and V37 have display off buttons for night use, they just come back on for a second or 3 if you interact with it, eg skip a song.
