Friend has an unlimited Amazon cloud storage account (think it's $60 a year) hooked up to his synology 12 Bay nas.

Took a while but the whole things replicated to Amazon in case something goes wrong/stolen etc.

It's a great solution to hook your nas up to cloud storage for offsite and some will roll back changes if you get ransomware for example, any change after x time is just wiped out and you download it from them, have done this with Dropbox before.

 

Beauty of slow aussie uploads means if you get ransomware it'll take ages to replicate anyway haha

Could probably find some spare cloud space where I work...

 

 

Typically you can link up your NAS to dropbox,onedrive,google drive (just google your model and what you can do with it) most offer a few hundred gig free anyway which is fine for your typical backup of important holiday pictures, documents etc. 

Something to try and work out if you get the chance and can be f**ked 

Otherwise yeah like you've been doing copy stuff to it from your laptop so you've got it in 2 locations, the disadvantage of that is if you get robbed or house burns down all your data gone.

Ordered an ebay 2000w generator for tyre warmers @ the track Michael - seeing as you're a sparky, am I gonna die using it?

I'm more interested in where you're doing track days that don't have power available..

Hope you got a warranty 

 

you see some many of these abandoned after Bathurst as didn't make it through the weekend

 

plus super noisy and forget 2000watts. Maybe a quick peak but yeah serious draw will kill them

 

reason the yam/Honda cost more

Murray Valley, Broadford (race days where you need to pay for garage or limited availability), South Morang Gokart track etc.

Yeah one year warranty, she'll be right looked at some reviews. The warmers will only draw about 1000watts this thing is rated for 1700 running. 

Bathurst probably full of drunk people overloading them I guess? Mate of mine got an Aldi one and still going strong

    • 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
