Good idea thanks.

I'm 7km from city and was thinking how else to commute. $140/month Myki for a short trip isn't great value, neither is parking in city.

 

Or maybe I join the vwl bandwagon and get a motorbike emoji55.png

Yeah get an Ebike, theres heaps out there pretty sure my mate can hit nearly 100km/h on his too if you want to! 

Would pay itself off in a year or so.

I have the  chrome version of that nismo one, and exact same thing, chrome wearing off to a cheap red thing below it.

got that nismo logo burnt in hand a few times in summer as well.

 

But is very well weighted and comfortable

Electric scooter ftw
They weigh about 8kg folded and 25km/h / 25km range out of the battery
We have one in the office we use to piss off th OH&S guys


That's pretty decent given how small it is.

Is it similarly sized to fold up scooters that used to be all the rage back in early noughties?

Yeah mine must have been the chrome

I wouldn't have knowingly bought a fake, most likely it was just not built for Australian summers

yeah I got mine from a nismo authorized re seller same time as the engine mounts and gearbox mount, so pretty sure it real and same senario

Black paint might hold better

I didn't think you were the type peruse SE Asian markets for Gucci knockoffs

Same issue here with the Nismo knob. Bought from Nengun from memory.

Maybe Birds' one is the fake lol

That awkward moment when Nismo gear is cost-cut outsourced trash and the copies are better

Can get them on eBay for $500-800 depending on battery size / motor.

Little bigger than them, with bigger / all terrain wheels. But still very compact.

140 a month would be a prepaid 30 day wouldn't it? So you can use it how ever many times you want? But if you were to just top it up to the same amount and make use of it only on work days solely in zone 1 you would save money I would have thought? Unless you live in zone 2?
 
$7 a day buying the monthly top up would still be half of what parking must cost at a minimum?

Cheaper to prepay @ $140/month
Parking around docklands is $20/day

Don't know these city feels

Even with monash roadwork bullshit I'm home to my hoon-ridden street in 20 max. Think I could clock 15 mins once it's done.

    • 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
