Copped a puncture on the monash Friday

Old Federal RSRR were nearly bald so, with the need to get back on the road asap, thought I'd give the RE003 a go in 245/40 all round. Impressive all round tyre for the money - $840 for four with an alignment.

They don't grip quite as well as I remember the Federals did when new, but it's expected with a treadwear of 200-220. Much much less road noise and look actually useful in the wet. Love the confidence that new tyres inspire in driving feel!

Coinspot doing AUD to crypto, but 7% transaction fees... And I can't even send my coins to another wallet due to some glitch.

Don't recommend.

Blockfolio app is now indispensable. Helps keep track of shit as watching stuff on Bittrex is annoying and only keeps transaction history for a month, pretty shitty really.

I'm leaning towards the re-71r (don't expect more than 10k out of them). Most normal tyre shops can get them but won't stock them and they seem to be only a little more than the re003. Gordon leven in Sydney seem to keep the common sizes in stock (they only do motor sport tyres) tyres shops have referred me to them before as apparently they get priority over jax/Bob Jane etc on the high grip/short life tyres if you need sizes that aren't commonly brought into the country in qty.

Where were they from?

Did think about going Bridgestone or Michelin for dat Costco discount.

FYI though, RSRR in 255/40/17 are something like $700 fitted for 4.

Bob Jane 3+1 Christmas special

These were 245/40/18

255/40/17 is usually a pretty cheap fitment across most brands and I'm tipping $700 doesn't get you an alignment?

I nearly went with AD08Rs again but they didn't have in stock

Needed my car for this week so thought it better to bite the bullet on the best performance tyre they could give me and I have wanted to try these for a while. Curious about their wet weather performance and if I get more than 10k out of them with my driving style.

Nah no alignment. Wasn't my car either lol, dhf tyres in hallam if down that way.

Wasn't 3+1 however, one day I'll go to Costco and actually ask them to price match on re71r or PS4 or pilot sport cups, while I get fat on hotdogs there.

Coinbase is easy to use, but can be slow due to volume. Send btc or eth or Ltc from there to binance or Bittrex. Then happy shopping. Otherwise if you just want to go AUD-most coins, and vice versa use coinspot.

I think something like 17,000 bitcoins worth get traded each day, not sure if 5 could be bought at the same price... But Coinbase, coinspot you have to "earn" your way to big amounts. Because it can be quite easy to do a dodgy on them with the way crypto works. So for example a mate and f mine been trading for over a year and his limit is 20,000pounds.

My Coinbase limit is $500 a week. Coinspot... I dunno, $5000?

 

I'm not sure if there's brokers around or something might be able to do big purchases. There'd have to be.

    • Yep, the closest base tune available was for the GTT, I went with that and made all the logical changes I could find to convert it to Naturally Aspirated. It will rev fine in Neutral to redline but it will be cutting nearly 50% fuel the whole way.  If I let it tune the fuel map to start with that much less fuel it wont run right and has a hard time applying corrections.  These 50% cuts are with a fuel map already about half of what the GTT tune had.  I was having a whole lot of bogging when applying any throttle but seem to have fixed that for no load situations with very aggressive transient throttle settings. I made the corrections to my injectors with data I found for them online, FBCJC100 flowing 306cc.  I'll have to look to see if I can find the Cam section. I have the Bosch 4.9 from Haltech. My manifold pressure when watching it live is always in -5.9 psi/inHg
    • Hi My Tokico BM50 Brake master cylinder has a leak from the hole between the two outlets (M10x1) for brake pipes, I have attached a photo. Can anyone tell me what that hole is and what has failed to allow brake fluid to escape from it, I have looked on line and asked questions on UK forums but can not find the answer, if anyone can enlighten me I would be most grateful.
    • It will be a software setting. I don't believe many on here ever used AEM. And they're now a discontinued product,that's really hard to find any easy answers on. If it were Link or Haltech, someone would be able to just send you a ECU file though.
    • Yes sir am asking is there possible way from aem tuner from wiring pins 
    • Have you checked cam to crank timing and confirmed balancer marks are correct?
