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then download this document for reference to police codes (which is slightly out of date):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

      Does 98ron contain ethanol?

      By GTSBoy · Posted

      Actually, ethanol has probably never been cheaper, on a tax free basis, than petrol. With fuel excise being what it is, and only being levied on the hydocarbon component, not the ethanol component, and ethanol for non-drinking purposes not being subject to liquor excise - E85 was cheaper, but not because the combustible liquid itself was particularly cheaper.

      Will I Need A Retune After Cahanging My Catalytic Converter ?

      By Murray_Calavera · Posted

      Maybe? If changing the cat to a higher flowing cat, caused the turbo to spool more quickly, and those areas of the map had not been tuned for the boost level it is now seeing, then yes you would need a re-tune. How dangerous it is running without the updated tune would depend on how far out the tune is with the now higher boost levels, how the engine protection has been setup, is the ECU compensating with a wideband sensor, is the boost control closed loop blah blah million other things... But yeah having said that, I wouldn't be surprised if changing out the cat for a high flow, in say a full 3" exhaust, made no noticeable difference at all.

      Need AC Compressor for R32

      By silviaz · Posted

      Ah yep. I asked a auto electrician about getting a cheap rebuilt alternator vs a new one. He also said he used to it back in the day but it ended up costing similar to what a new one would and recommended getting a new one,.

      Will I Need A Retune After Cahanging My Catalytic Converter ?

      By silviaz · Posted

      Ah, to clarify if the car has already been tuned and has been modified and you want to go from a oem cat to a 100 cell or decat or vice versa.Are you saying that the car doesn't need to be tuned after a cat change if it's already been tuned?

      High temp brake fluid?

      By Komdotkom · Posted

      This has been covered a bazillion times but google wet boiling point vs dry. Motul is only good when it's fresh, once it absorbs moisture it gets pretty average very quickly. So as above, make sure you change it if you're going racing. I run the Endless brake fluid in mind, but only because a mate is a distributor and it's cheap. It's not quite as good as SRF but I'm running 380mm rotors on a Skyline so it's not like they get hot.
