your worried about a commodore that crashed after trying to show off to a skyline? he was probably yelling shit out the window and not watching where he was driving :rolleyes:

no offence to any commodore drivers of course, but with the general attitude of some of them towards me on the road I wont lose any sleep tonight over it :)

or he could have been just trying to happily cruise along with the rest of you, accidentally drop his ciggie on his leg and burn it, take his eye's off the road and write off his pride and joy which he's spent all his time and effort on. People who drive commodores are no different to us, they're car enthusiasts as well.

If he was a car enthusiast, he wouldn't be smoking in his pride and joy :P

I know what your saying but I was on the highway at the same time and I know what he was doing....

Amen to that :cheers:

More likely some Skyline driver was next to him going VROOM *ptscht* and the Commo driver looked over and missed the 100kph to 0kph lockups that happen so frequently and took the option of bailing out to the side instead of arsing some other poor pricks car.

hmm no thats not what happend...but maybe some other time it is. I dont think its appropriate to exactly explain what happend but it was the m1, late on a saturday night and there were alot of cars out doing things other than driving normally....the commo was doing something to perhaps entice the skyline...then proceeded to do something other than drive safely, he lost controll and thats what happend...bad luck, i think thats the end of it.

I have had "some" experience with the M1 Fun Club Matt :cheers:

not saying you havent, just trying to state what happend...without using to much detail, i think its obvious what happend and I cant say I feel sorry for him. If I crashed from doing the same thing then I wouldnt expect anyone to feel sorry for me. Its his own stupidity..bad luck, typical it was a commodore...if it was a skyline we would have seen a 7 o'clock special on the news

So why is it some big secret as to what he/she was actually doing at the time?. It's not like it is classified information. Or is it?

because we're not allowed to talk about it on the forums as what he was doing illegal, i think you know what happend though...its nto to hard to figure out lol :(

But the person who did it does not belong to SAU Qld nor is the owner of this forum legally responsible for what some tosser does on the road.

So there is no reason why you can't tell, if anything it is educational as it explains what not to do.

      So, now all you need to do is connect the 2 or 3x 12v feeds into the unit to permanent 12v, ACC 12V and IGN 12V that you can find in the spot behind the stereo, and the earth, and then it will switch on with the car.

      My thought is if you were just moving it forward and the upstream geometry remained the same, then no difference at all. But because the current one has the filter direct into the AFM inlet, you effectively have the best chance of a completely symmetric air flow profile upstream, and in, the AFM, whilst the aftermarket inlet thingo has a (small, to be sure) bend between the filter and the AFM. That would bias the flow to the outside of the bend (downstream of the bend) which might well reduce the size of the signal seen by the AFM, for the same total flow rate. Having said that: If you're proposing to make your inlet look like a hybrid of your existing one and the aftermarket one, such that there is no bend where the filter is clamped on... then I say it will be just fine. If there is going to be such a bend, then, if you can align the insertion of the AFM blade such that it is at right angles to the plane of the bend, then there is a better than even chance that the centreline velocity where the blade is will remain more or less the same, and the velocity will just be a little faster to the outside of that, and just a little slower to the inside. **This is not professional investment advice and you should consult a suitably qualified ouija board, tea leaves or the intestines of a goat for more accurate prognostication.

      Blue/grey smoke after idle

      By pacman_1219 · Posted

      Hi Tao, Thanks for your reply.  It's been a while and I managed to get the valve stem seals replaced with the head on the car.  Unfortunately this didn't solve my issue, the car still smokes a lot after idling (to be honest during idle you can see a bit of blue smoke from the exhaust), same after deceleration. I will try disconnecting the valve cover breathers, do I leave the PCV valve in? By engine oil drain pipe, do you mean the turbo oil drain?

      What about if you just give it direct 12v and earth?
