Road Rage incident.

I as involved in roadrage incident on Tusday. Freeway south 4:00pm, peek hour .......

Got bashed up fell to the ground, the guy ran off and no****ingbody stopped to help.........

Drove to the Police station to report the incident, but the station was empty...............

HAd to dial the numbers and go through the options as the operator directed me to another police station in Freamantle. NO ****ING COP WHEN YOU NEED ONE!!!

al

I drove my hity car from work, I was brick paving, stuck in the righthand lane of the Mt Henry bridge...peekhour traffic and no chance to swing into left.........my car started to over heat when this dickhead in an old ute holden...no ****in wonder!!! started to terrorise me from behind. He had one of those big front roobars.....square massive ones from the 70's............

at one stage it looked like he wass sitting in my back seat.............then he got in between the sizers ( me and the car on my left) and another sizers ( me and th car on the left front)

one car length between me and the car on trhe right.....................almost caused an accident with 5 cars...................

Some people backed off as I tried to pull into an emergency lane.........

I'm thinking let the idiot go and I'll park the car letr itr cool down..............

But the idiot saw me parking...........he pulled over about 50m in front of me and got out......

I saw him walking and got out, and after that all I remember is seeing white and hitting the ground......my stupidity for getting out of the car......................

I don't know what he hit me with....I lost conc for about 3min just enough time for him to run off and me to get first part of the rego.......

Bad news Al :) .... my dad was almost involved in a similar thing last night at Bassendean Train Station .... except it wouldve been him hitting the guy ...... this guy that stunk of beer said my dad reversed into him .... but there were no marks on either cars and dad didnt feel it and reckons that he definately didnt back into him ....so this guy gets up in dads face n dad pushes him away ..... dad wanted to deck him.

Yes Glue .... i do want aidwins zorst :)

Speaking of Bikinis saw some nice ones in myer yesterday i may go back n get yet.

ok onwards with work again.

    • Yeah, nah. I had the actuator rod off it today. The arm will not move at all. Neither out, nor in. Yeah, you'd think so, but I've been thinking about that. Even when the actuator rod fell all the way off at the beginning of this saga, it would build more boost and faster in lower gears than it would in higher gears, and you'd think that that was the opposite of what should happen. But I strongly suspect that there is a thing with the gearing getting the revs to rise faster, that there must be some transient effect with the gas flow rate rising quickly, that you don't get with the more steady state case of the higher gears. Keep in mind - the gate is not shut in either of my weirdnesses. So things are not "normal". We normally think about a turbo spooling up (below the wastegate target) with the gate shut. I have all sorts of mental models running now where the gate is a little bit open, and having it stuck open allowing gas out while it should be going through the turbine has all sorts of weird effects (in these mental models). I'm thinking in the higher gears, the ex mani pressure builds to the point where enough gases spill out the wastegate to just prevent the pressure rising much more at all, or just creeping up, all the whole the revs are increasing and getting closer to the point where a gear shift becomes necessary.
    • Is it possibly wastegate actuator itself is sticking, or even the rod to flapper? Otherwise I reckon things are getting a bit rusty/worn   Also odd it won't boost in 3rd to 5th, but will in 1st, I'd expect the other way around with it slightly open as there's more time on your way to redline for it to spin up
    • Does anyone know ow what these two plugs are for and if they should be unplugged? Just put the dash back together and can't remember if these were plugged in before or unplugged! (Blue and white plugs) 🤦🏽‍♂️
    • Did some FASTing ...got the impression that the actual part# was a moot point ; seems all of these hardlines for coolant are discontinued/NLA... like, I take it you're after the hardline that bolts onto to the manifold...that's NLA according to amayama & nengun .... ...just to clear up some confusion, they typically mounted the AAC valve to the intake manifold somewhere near a coolant passage, so the body of the valve heats up & holds it open when engine's up to temp - no coolant flows through the valve, it's a mechanical, thermal connection.
    • And now the bloody flapper is jammed slightly open. Lazy as all f**k in 3rd-5th (very hard to convince it to make much boost before you run out of revs), but will make 12 psi in 1st, which shouldb't be possible with a 5 psi spring and controller set to <10 psi. Methinks I'm lucky it jammed where it did, rather than fully closed. It's actually a well weird situation. Careful examination of what's happening in the back of that housing when the gearbox comes out and all the other stuff (injectors, AFM retune) is supposed to be done, next week.
