Morning all. Bad day. Bad headache, it's catchy Lauren. Means I am not at school. Car booked in for service later, might cancel that. Been sick for a week, what can make me better? Going to doctor later for appropriate medical certificates. The manager at work was not happy when she called the other day.

Got a bad feeling about work. I may be jobless soon. Still looking for a good job.

i know thats what you meant paul its just i dont know what the parking arrangements etc are for it .... what time to go .... blah blah blah ..... i have no idea - which is nothing new.

Yeah i know after two days im going to be - are we there yet :) .... still excited tho.

Yeah i do Paul - i havent really put pen to paper yet tho ..... give me another couple of days :) i'll do something before we go ok? :) You just need wording or some design ideas too?

LOL @ Ross - yeah they werent happy when i quit my last job cos they made it so i was the only one who knew how to run the place so without me there the whole pre-del dept went kaput and they were on my phone straight after i landed back on perth shores! :D

Angel - dont worry something will come along - ive nearly been jobless that many times im used to it!!

    • just an update to this, poor man pays twice  Tried sanding down the pulleys but it didnt do the trick. Chucked another second hand alternator in the na car which I got for free off my mate and its fixed the squelling. Must have been unlucky with the bearings.    As for my turbo car, I managed to pick up a cwc rb alternator conversion bracket + LS alternator for 250 off marketplace, looked to be in really good nick. Installed it , started the car and its not charging the battery.... ( Im not good with auto elec stuff so im not sure if this was all I needed to do but I verified such by using a multimeter on the battery when the engine was running and I was only getting 12.2v )   I had to modify the earth strap for the new LS alternator , factory earth strap was a 10mm bolt which did not fit the bolt on the LS alternator which was double the size so I cut it off , went to repco bought some ring terminals that fit, crimped it onto the old earth strap and bolted it up to the alternator , started the car and same issue. Ran like shit and was reading 12.2 at the battery.  For a "plug and play" advertised kit thats not very plug and play but alas.  My question is , am I missing something ? Ive been reading that some people recommend upgrading the stock 80 amp alternator fuse to a 140 amp but I dont see how that would stop the alternator charging especially at idle not under load.  Regardless ive pulled it out and am going to get it bench tested by an auto elec tomorrow but it would be handy to know if ive missed something silly or have done something wrong.   
    • My wild guess is that you have popped off an intake pipe....check all of the hoses between the turbo and the throttle for splits or loose clamps.
    • Awesome, thanks for sharing!
    • To provide more specific help, more information is needed. What Android screen? What is its wiring diagram? Does the car's wiring have power at any required BAT and ACC wires, and is the loom's earth good?
    • 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.
