anyone know whats happening around South rd/cross rd. Got a 7news chopper in the sky just wondering around.

EDIT: dont worry, burst water main in the middle of the rd has blown a hole in the rd lol

just came thru there coming back from Damos, 5 biker cops with laser, pulling up people for speeding over 25, had all of them looking at me like fresh meat in a lions cage, not speeding but arms length from my car with damos old front bar occupying the pass seat and back seat lol... made it thru the cage unmolested, heart was racing out of my chest, thought for sure I was done..lol

oh and it looks like they will have the road fixed up for rush hour in am, blew a hole near the caltex food mart south bound side

thanks again damo , your rims are pure porn mate :ermm:

Hey guys, I was wondering if anyone can explain to me the process of "importing" a car from interstate? Thanks in advance :ermm:

i got my 34 from interstate

fresh from japan...went to melb.....the guy did all the complaince work over there.........drive her over to adelaide.......went to regency for full check......passed.......went and got her registered lol

Heres a brain teaser - problem with my daily:

Its a 1981 Toyota Corona CS

- cold start it struggles to stay on

- accelerator to the floor just to get it to idle - otherwise it would conk out if I let go

- idle while doing the above isnt stable - like its surging - sometime it conks out and have to repeat the above

- after a minute, it must of warmed up, it idles fine without accelerating

- chuck it into gear there is a high probability of it conking out and having to repeat everything above - but it doesnt take as long as when turning it on the first time

- first couple minutes of driving, accelerator is down to the floor and the car is just putting along at walking pace then it gains enough power and revs normal and is all good

Its about a 5 minute battle to keep it on every morning lol

- recently started happening when the other week the car just wouldnt start, before that the car started first time everytime and drove fine, after that day that it wouldnt turn on its been problematic ever since

- to get the car going again the points in the distributor was replaced, alternator replaced and a new battery but somehow the problem mentioned above arises

Anyone got suggestions on what could be wrong?

got the wheels on the Keto.

was lucky enough to get a really helpfull guy in repco, that sourced some wheel nuts that are nissan shape, but have toyota thread (even security nuts!)

pls ignore how filthy the old girl is... im busy saving the murray

I take it its a carbie ?, the choke is stuck, the idle circuit it dirty, air filter dirty? dirty PCV ?, vacuum leaks from dizzy to manifold, carbie vacuum advance ?

get some carb cleaning and hose it down with a fast idle after it warms up, problem solvered if its carbie, and carb doesnt need rebuild

Yeap its carby, just googled it up and I reckon carby cleaner sounds like a plan - will give that a try tomorrow. Cheers :D wish the R33 was as simple and cheap to rectify problems lol

ahaha, much love for the rick roll, well played sir.

bet the throttle body is black inside, but should be kinda bronze coloured. just warm up the engine, after taking the air cleaner lid off, hold it at about 2k rpm and spray inside the throat of carbie, motor will try to stall, stop spraying for a min, then repeat till clean, whats left of carbie cleaner wash off the outside of carbie.

and pcv valve and put it back in. after it cools off, look to see if the plate in carb is free, top one is choke. the little holes are the vents to float bowl, and idle curcuit, if you see raw fuel pouring/sputtering out of vents in carb, you have other problems in carb.

also can be a bad electric choke?

check vacuum line to dizzy advance, plugged in?

hope that helps mate :D

safety note, do not put your face over carbie, if it backfires, you will get a face full of fire

Awesome! just what i wanted to here after installing them in my car :D

lol, this cop was a cock to be polite about it

goin to fix it tomorrow after work, went for a drive about 8:30 down to caltex at st marys. sitting at the sturt / south rd lights, get a tap on my left window

same cop

"so, you've still got those blue lights in hey"

"ermm, ive got until friday to fix it" *casual grin on my face*

"oh...........................................................okay then" *flips his visor back down

LOL

listening too now not bad

what you use to make them

Mainly use fruity loops studio8 producer edition.

Editing is usually done with sony soundforge.

couple other smaller programs too.

its annoying because I cant upload any longer songs. or songs with more detail as they are more than 10mb.

CD will be made soon tho

    • Please do not connect it to your manifold. If you do, as GTS suggested please record the lot in 4K with good mics attached.   On the factory Skyline, there's a upside down pipe that allows it to breathe, looks like this   
    • For me I'd need some serious justification for why it has blown out.  Have you questioned him on it?  To be honest if you didn't question him right from the get-go on the first invoice that was already way over the initial quote and then you've (presumably) then paid another $1375 on top of the first invoice, then you're pushing shit uphill to get a favourable result now... It was years ago I last got an engineer out but it was around $450-$550 per visit.  That was just to inspect each progress point he gave me for the project.  Is he just doing progress inspections or is he providing engineering diagrams, technical assistance, etc??  If he's not, he's a filthy rip off merchant.  If the $3100 is the final sign off then you need to cop it on the chin, pay it and move on.  If it's not, piss him off and get a new one.  Not many Jeeps I'd value at $10K full stop let alone just engineering fees on a written off, half actual value WOVR Jeep....
    • Oh, yes. If you connected it to the manifold your first drive would be very eventful. Very shit. Very interesting. Perhaps take a video if you feel the need to see. Terminating the breather at the top of the bellhousing is normal/stock. Some gearbox lubes (hello Redline Shockproof) like to foam up a bit and require the breather to be extended up higher, so you don't get spots of smurf jizz staining the floor under your car. Mine is thus right up behind the head. Make sure you fit a u-bend at the top so it points back downward so that dirt and schmutz has a harder time getting into it.
    • Cheers for the replies. So i don't connect it to the manifold I just run the hose high up on the firewall?
    • It doesn't really answer your question...but is the head unit full android or just android auto, are you happy with how quickly it boots and responds, and do you have a link?  If we can identify good Android alternatives it will really help people stuck with Japanese screens. Did it have a separate reverse camera input so you would replace the factory one, or are you just going without now...that would be a pretty big steps back. And finally, do you have a picture of the "wire" that you can't plug in? Most likely it is some sort of aerial that is not too important eg japanese traffic or am radio or something if you haven't noticed a functionality issue
