Scrote City...Watch yourself and you car.


Recommended Posts

I'm planning on designing a special pocket in my pyjama's for my keys, bet the bastards won't think of looking there, haha

It's amazing how brazen they are these days, breaking in to steal keys from your house, kinda scary. My dog was the best investment I every made, keeps anyone from going round the back of my place.

Hmm I have considered sleeping with them inin my pocket or under my pillow or something along those lines of being really close, but I am scared that I will roll over in my sleep and push my alarm!!!! The last thing I need is to open the car in my sleep and make it easier for the theives!!! :)

I'd rather put up a fight than let them get my car, some things are worth fighting for. Have to keep a club handy.

Are you sure that doesn't have more than one purpose? haha.

It would give them a nice surprise if they came looking for the keys in your room.

I got broken into today, only thing they stole was my old car stereo but im sure the guy had a good look around at everything else he wanted. Cops got a print and I told em who I rekoned it was but they say theres near nothing chance they can do anything.

I will need to bring my dog down i think, but i dont know how it will go during the day while im @ work. its a purebred border collie and needs to be ran VERY often else it gets really moody hehe

speaking of little bastards breaking into houses and stealing keys.... 4 houses were broken into in my street the other night and one car was stolen. some keys(for both the house and car) from one house are still missing so all the locks need to be changed.

i reckon some of the best security we;ve ever invested in is a little jack russell. they bark their heads off at anything foreign to the house. security mesh and steel glass on the windows will make your house a fortress.

anyway... if i caught someone trying to break into my car id grab my 6D Cell Maglight and beat the living fCuk out of them after they;d said a quick hi to mr diving knife. believe me..... im not joking!:)

Memphis if I was you I wouldnt be pointing that marker at anyone. Its illegal to point anything that resembles a gun at someone in WA. Let alone pump out a few rounds which could take out their eyes, which would in turn **** up paintballing for everyone. I've been hit by a normal marker at several ranges, one paintball managed to break the skin (hit my hand, didnt have any gloves on) and cause a serious welt to go with the bleeding, imagine coping one in the eye, you'd lose it. Save the marker for the field when its legal to inflict such pain on your friends :)

try a couple of surveilence cameras, i have 2 out the front of my place they even have infra-red so they can see in the dark!! they hook up to your computer and using specialised software, can be set to record on movement and/or set off an alarm through your computer speakers, best thing ive ever done for security, and quite cheap also, under $100 for each camera....

Cam.

Hmmm I am also with RAC..... Isnt the definition of stolen, taken without your permission????? So wouldnt that mean that regards of how they take it they have still stolen it??? Maybe it truly has been a blessing that I have always kept my keys with me at all times without even knowing that :D

    • I guess one thing that might be wrong is the manifold pressure.  It is a constant -5.9 and never moves even under 100% throttle and load.  I would expect it to atleast go to 0 correct?  It's doing this with the OEM MAP as well as the ECU vacuum sensor. When trying to tune the base map under load the crosshairs only climb vertically with RPM, but always in the -5.9 column.
    • AHHHH gotchaa, I'll do that once I am home again. I tried doing the harness with the multimeter but it seems the car needed a jump, there was no power when it was in the "ON" position. Not sure if I should use car battery jump starter or if its because the stuff that has been disconnect the car just does send power.
    • As far as I can tell I have everything properly set in the Haltech software for engine size, injector data, all sensors seem to be reporting proper numbers.  If I change any injector details it doesnt run right.    Changing the base map is having the biggest change in response, im not sure how people are saying it doesnt really matter.  I'm guessing under normal conditions the ECU is able to self adjust and keep everything smooth.   Right now my best performance is happening by lowering the base map just enough to where the ECU us doing short term cut of about 45% to reach the target Lambda of 14.7.  That way when I start putting load on it still has high enough fuel map to not be so lean.  After 2500 rpm I raised the base map to what would be really rich at no load, but still helps with the lean spots on load.  I figure I don't have much reason to be above 2500rpm with no load.  When watching other videos it seems their target is reached much faster than mine.  Mine takes forever to adjust and reach the target. My next few days will be spent making sure timing is good, it was running fine before doing the ECU and DBW swap, but want to verify.  I'll also probably swap in the new injectors I bought as well as a walbro 255 pump.  
    • It would be different if the sealant hadn't started to peel up with gaps in the glue about ~6cm and bigger in some areas. I would much prefer not having to do the work take them off the car . However, the filler the owner put in the roof rack mount cavities has shrunk and begun to crack on the rail delete panels. I cant trust that to hold off moisture ingress especially where I live. Not only that but I have faded paint on as well as on either side of these panels, so they would need to come off to give the roofline a proper respray. My goal is to get in there and put a healthy amount of epoxy instead of panel filler/bog and potentially skin with carbon fiber. I have 2 spare rolls from an old motorcycle fairing project from a few years back and I think it'd be a nice touch on a black stag.  I've seen some threads where people replace their roof rack delete with a welded in sheet metal part. But has anyone re-worked the roof rails themselves? It seems like there is a lot of volume there to add in some threads and maybe a keyway for a quick(er) release roof rack system. Not afraid to mill something out if I have to. It would be cool to have a cross bar only setup. That way I can keep the sleek roofline that would accept a couple bolts to gain back that extra utility  3D print some snazzy covers to hide the threaded section to be thorough and keep things covered when not using the rack. 
    • Probably not. A workshop grade scantool is my go to for proper Consult interrogation. Any workshop grade tool should do it. Just go to a workshop.
