When I saw the news article this morning about the Australian Government wanting to set up an armed, floating prison ship to handle asylum seekers...

Clicky -> http://www.theage.com.au/news/national/mac...4198243176.html

I didn't think of politics.

I didn't think of human rights.

I thought of Christopher Lambert or perhaps Stephen Segal and some weeaksauce rapper side-kick with a stupid name. I saw Walken as the evil captain, I saw a Hollywood hottie as the ship's doctor who falls for our heroic protagonist (who was wrongly imprisoned of course), there's perhaps some kind of people-smuggling, chem-weapons making, undersea aliens, espionage threat - with Van Damme making his career comback as 'the President' and his twin brother.

Surely this is so crazy an idea - it MUST be made into a crappy film!

Put your screenplay ideas here - and we can submit it to Village Roadshow. Afterall - they funded Matrix 3!

Bill Paxton's star shon brightly in that titty film we watched the other week :laugh:

So... Maybe Walken as the evil John Howard and Paxton as the firm-but-fair captain of the prison ship who sacrifices himself to help Christopher Lambert's character escape some kind of shark pool trap set by one of the Van Damme twins.

See, i'm thinking Danny DeVito (ala Penguin/batman), as the evil John Howard, with Walken as his side kick treasurer.

Dolf would have to be the choice as the captain!!

Oh and Rosanne Barr as Amanda Vanstone!

As it is anchored off the NT we can have a Tsunami that causes it to flip over and the survivors have to climb around to try and find an exit at the bottom of the ship before it sinks.

The survivors then get swept to a small uninhabited island where they discover their love for one another 'Blue Lagoon' style. :D

The the ghostly Davey Jones comes to reap their souls :P (only added that to use the pirate smiley)

    • It is an absolute lottery. They can and have died at stock boost with low usage at all. The turbos are now anywhere up to 36 years old!
    • Huh, wonder why it blew then. I never really beat on the car THAT hard lol I dailyed it and the turbo blew after 6 months
    • That's odd, it works fine here. Try loading it on a different device or browser? It's Jack Phillips JDM, a Skyline wrecker in Victoria. Not the cheapest, but I have found them helpful to find obscure parts in AU. https://jpjdm.com/shop/index.php
    • Yeah. I second all of the above. The only way to see that sort of voltage is if something is generating it as a side effect of being f**ked up. The other thing you could do would be to put a load onto that 30V terminal, something like a brakelamp globe. See if it pulls the voltage away comepletely or if some or all of it stays there while loaded. Will give you something of an idea about how much danger it could cause.
    • I would say, you've got one hell of an underlying issue there. You're saying, coils were fully unplugged, and the fuse to that circuit was unplugged, and you measured 30v? Either something is giving you some WILD EMI, and that's an induced voltage, OR something is managing to backfeed, AND that something has problems. It could be something like the ECU if it takes power from there, and also gets power from another source IF there's an internal issue in the ECU. The way to check would be pull that fuse, unplug the coils, and then probe the ECU pins. However it could be something else doing it. Additionally, if it is something wired in, and that something is pulsing, IE a PWM circuit and it's an inductive load and doesnt have proper flyback protection, that would also do it. A possibility would be if you have something like a PWM fuel pump, it might be giving flyback voltages (dangerous to stuff!). I'd put the circuit back into its "broken" state, confirm the weird voltage is back, and then one by one unplug devices until that voltage disappears. That's a quick way to find an associated device. Otherwise I'd need to look at the wiring diagrams, and then understand any electrical mods done.   But you really should not be seeing the above issue, and really, it's indicating something is failing, and possibly why the fuse blew to begin with.
