Yeah that's a bit of a worry, $500 item sitting in plain sight, who can be stuffed removing it every time.

Those Sony XPLODE head units were the bomb, all dem bright red LEDs before RGB came into play.. the double dinn Pioneer head units were for the rich kids  

How is it different to putting a GoPro in and out? The dash cam is easier to remove

Cams are that cheap and common these days that I don't think they'd be a major haul for break ins. The kind of people breaking into my car aren't doing it for the contents anyway, just a joy ride.

It isn't, screw putting a go pro on as well every time you drive / ride lol

Off topic: mate of mine waiting to settle for 125-700k apparently, from a motorbike accident some lady smashed into him broke his arm now having problems with it even though it happened 6 years ago..

tl;dr someone hit me with their car 

This looks pretty bargain - cheapest way into a GTX1060 on the go - what are ACER laptops like? I know Dezz bought some horrid laptops but can't remember brands other than MSI

Horrible laptop is still going strong, the issue was an old modem not being compatible with the newer wireless card technology. Upgraded home network, problem solved.

Bullshit^

Here's what you're gonna do...when I hang up you're gonna call me back and say the complete opposite of everything you just said to me

I rarely agree with anything Hamish says, but hat is spot on. KK are rubbish. fresh donut king cinnamons any day.

  • Like 3

Daniels donuts way better than KK 

Used to live so close to Daniels when I was in Clayton, probably one of the big things I miss about the area. RIP :(

 

That laptop isn't bad for the price, rip out the shit 1TB hard drive and put a SSD replacement in as well. 

 

So 4 months and they still haven't sold the place we are renting, hopefully they say f**k it and keep it for a bit longer. Asking way too much 890k for a 3 bed townhouse, yes its new but everything cheaply done and nothing special.

    • After using a protractor for an actually accurate assessment of what is required,  and by NOT using my uncalibrated eyeball I worked out I need a 25° silicone bend from the TB ro the MAF, but, my choice was either a 30° or a 23° (23° is a weird spec), so I grabbed the 23° one from Raceworks I also grabbed 1mtr of 3" straight from Just Jap, I needed 350mm, but they only had 300mm, or 1mtr lengths....meh Also ordered a 1/2" hose bulkhead fitting from fleabay, this has a smoothish mushroom looking head (they are designed for below the water line of boats) that will fit inside the bend, the hose bit and threaded bit looks to long, but nothing that a hacksaw cannot fix if required, the hose will then just get jamed on the threaded bit up to the retaining nut Fingers crossed and the unsightly amount of hose clamps will be reduced down to 4 once all the parts arrive 
    • Oil change does not trigger code 21. Code 21 is for coilpacks primary side connection. You can try to clear the code with a battery disconnect, hold down the brake pedal to drain capacitors through the brake lights with the ignition on for 10-15 seconds before you reconnect the battery. I have seen R35 coil conversion permanently cause this code with no ill effects so it might be the resistance it wants to see isn't quite right on one or more coilpacks. Could be inside the ECU, could be the harness, could be a coil. You can test it all if you want or just ignore until the car actually starts misfiring.
    • I forgot you have a Nistune ECU. Use Nistune to do all the tests I mentioned instead of faffing with 30+ year old electrical connectors. You can read MAF volts off that too, there are reference values in the service manual to tell you roughly what it should be in different conditions.
    • No. I think it might be the AFM. Hence the use of the terms "swaptronics", which implies the use of swapping out electronics for the purpose of diagnosis. It's about the only way to prove that a small/niggling/whatever problem with an AFM or a CAS or similar is actually caused by that AFM/CAS/whatever. A known good item swapped in that still gives the same problem is likely to be caused somewhere else. They're all the same. Spraying AFMs with cleaner is an each way bet between cleaning it and f**king it.
    • Oh wow! This might actually work amazingly. Do you know the ratio of the diff? I was told the only thing you need to make sure of is if the front & rear diff ratios are the same. Ours is a 4.083 Thanks!
