bored?

wanna listen to scanners online?

enter this url into either winamp or vlc

http://www.waix.net:8000/scanner

(with vlc its under open/open network, then enter url)

then download this document for reference to police codes (which is slightly out of date):

police_jobcodes_2006.pdf

or you can visit

http://warsug.info/viewtopic.php?t=3 and also check out the forum

its cool to have it on in teh background and everynow and then something interesting will happen

(the scanner unit itself drops out after 2 sec of no communication, and then will pick up anything it hears - police, fire, ambos, bus/train)

I used to have a scanner, i bought it from tandys for 200 bucks, Bloody good to listen to on the weekend nights. I heard things from kids throwing fire crackers at cars, crashes, police chases, a riot in cannington with over 100 people, a guy going from door to door asking for money, ALOT of domestics, and one where a skyline and a ferrari that were drag racing along the kwinana fwy at over 170kph across the narrows haha and one of a old commodore doing bout 150 through a booze bus haha what an idiot, and heaps more.

A 'good' uhf will have this facility... at my old work i was having after work drinks listening to police freqs.

Best one I heard was about a 'ford falcon versus garage wall' lol... car chases are fun too...

Police have supposedl;y been going digital since pre-200... system has to many flaws, not happening anytime soon.

When i picked my 32 up from the car yard it still had the standard radio/cd player in it from japan, their radio frequencies must be close to our emergency frequencies as i could hear ambulance chit chat through it. . . . nothing exciting happened :)

      Need AC Compressor for R32

      By silviaz · Posted

      Is rebuilding it even a thing? Where would the shop find parts for it? I looked at some off these local online stores for my r34 and suprisingly they had brand new aftetmarket ones for $600-800 I think. I guess r32 might be a bit tougher.

      Does 98ron contain ethanol?

      I remember the days when E85 was priced in according to the $ per km outcome. Sure E85 was about 35% cheaper, but you also lost about 35% range... now it's fked..

      A little PU bush story

      They do. The pale yellow translucent ones from Japan were .... I dunno. Useless? Whiteline and SuperPro are probably fairly similar. There's bound to be a range of different hardnesses amongst the dozens of options on the market. The simple fact is that the pineapples don't get up inside the bush at all. They just sort of exist in the space between the washer/bracket and the subframe's bush outer tube, and...exert a bit of force between them? Or something like that. I'm sure that with enough provocation, they will simply allow one to move wrt the other.

      I'm not sure they came in different hardnesses? Going from memory only - I had set them up in the balanced setup. I also have poly bushes, so I have both poly bushes and pineapples. This is what my memory tells me at least. I'll have to take a look under there to be sure. The tramp was so bad that I managed to eject/kill a diff bushing, so those I know are stock. The tramp is bad enough that you are 200% sure you are doing severe damage to the car. It's not just chirping or vibration, it feels like you're hitting a speed hump/kerb 10 times a second. The issue has persisted between subframes! (I went from Hicas to non hicas subframe and replaced every bush a few years ago now) so I'm entirely lost. Every arm is factory.

      Need AC Compressor for R32

      Can recommend the Frenchys kit, been using it 2 years now with no issue, very happy with it.  Only thing for me was upgrading the thermo fan but I am super fussy on cooling.   Also interested in electric AC, partly for boot mount to have a clean bay and partly would love the idea of cooling off the car before i get in. The battery setup to do that might be tricky / expensive though.  Found this an interesting watch.
