Its not digital hey?

The cheapest Digital scanner you can buy is around $600...And pointless knowing the Sunshine Coast wont be on Digital for another 12 months at least.

Analog Scanner for sale, $150...barely 4 months old...bought for $300...reputable brand..selling $150..great deal.

yea i went to him when i dropped u off last time and just asked him, if he could wack it in. and he went all "its not as simple as that mate" on me. so i dont think i will let him do it. might just get him to do a clutch. nothing else.

all i can say is thank god for family friends that are mechanics. they can sign u off for scheduled maintenance, and dont give u shit, and actually like u to help them through the process.

LOL mate, i dont think you understand there is alot more than jus wacking it on and drive out the next day. remember all the other shit you need to get done...braided lines, need farbriaction work done to your dump and intercooler piping. intake pipe setup? and i dont know wat gaer it is but if its ebay i dont think there will be many mechanics on the sunshine coast that would want to deal with that type of stuff. No offense dude but every ebay manifold ive seen has warped like crap, those ebay kits are f*king not worth wiping ur ass on. ANYONE that knows anything about performance would agree with me.But ive been through every mechanic on the sunshine coast and the only person i feel comfortable with leaving my car with is marty, he has worked on my cars for the past 3-4 years. He not only explains how things are and wat has to be done but offers very reasonable rates. Every other mechanic ive been to says "yep ok we will do it ring ya when tis done" and any HIGH performance mechanic in brisbane/gold coast charges at least 80 a hour. ive spent WELL over 10grand with marty and it has got me neally everything i want. If i was to travel to gold coast for the work it would of been around 5-6grand EXTRA and ive also worked all thsi out :nyaanyaa:

Also ive droped in to say hey a few times and he has been working on a ferrari. i done wee wee.

That white GTR is very nice i see it down newspaper place also.

lol at u...

got another skyline yet..??

yo sunnycoast.

explain to me how the thing works.. im getting pooped on by the cops alot lately.. to the point wher i wont venture out in the black 180sx on saturdays!!!.

1) You turn scanner on

2) you enter scanner frequency/s that you wish to scan (knowing what police channels there are helps allot).

3) Press Scan.

4) Hear the police calling you in

5) Put your foot to the floor and crank your boost to 17psi.

6) Drive like your mothers life depended on it.

7) Go to sleep.

Can anyone recomend a intercooler for me that will be reasonably easy to fit and they are or have used previously and would swear by? Also where they bought it and cost?

Buy the blitz LM...around 900 from autobarn...no cutting required

    • Surprisingly the D6000 is only $1999, I'm waiting for the BF/CM sales, and hoping to get one cheaper. D4000 is well priced, still outperforms the 13" SVS PB-3000 and is like 1/2 the price at $1699 RRP. I do watch a fair amount of movies, and listen to EDM, jazz, symphonies, etc. so the lower notes from a subwoofer are always appreciated. The front 8" stage, just doesn't provide you with lively feeling, even though they are pretty bassy for a pair of large bookshelves. Then again, these days it's just playing Wiggles, Blippi and Ms Rachel, another reason the 3m wide cabinet exists, to hide all the audio gear behind it. They used to sit on a nice pair of stands, but as you know, they make good baby traps too.
    • Granted, which is a solid reason why I don't have one. My floorstanders are only -2 dB at 22 Hz.  So they're still working down to <20 Hz. Which is no doubt part of the reason why my receiver shits the bed! That Tonewinner would be about double the cost though, so it's not apples and apples. There aren't many AU$1300 subs (that you can buy prebuilt, I'm ignoring what can be achieved by DIYing) that compete.
    • -6dB at 22Hz isn't that great, watch the data from the D6000 from REW
    • I'll just leave this here. https://www.adelaidespeakers.com/subwoofers.html TL loading, big power. They sound awesome. This is what I would buy if I was going to try to take the bass away from my floorstanders. Just go with the 12".
    • I'll snap up some photos when I'm back home, in the office today meeting my "in the office" quota. Have 2x Teams calls scheduled in, office culture they reckon.   I've never owned a proper off the shelf sub, I've always made or modified broken ones with Jaycar plate amps and/or car subwoofer drivers. The current (and broken) subwoofer has a proper home driver in it, Dayton driver, thos one https://www.daytonaudio.com/product/118/rss265hf-4-10-reference-hf-subwoofer-4-ohm FS of 25Hz, which is low but not low enough. Yeah, I think they were brought out to the market to compete with SVS. I would love a SVS PB-3000 but they're not cheap, especially after their price hike. From reviews online, it does look like the Tonewinner D6000 would destroy and with good amount of money saved too.
