Okay, so get this. I was noticing that my forum posts were getting a little pale, and washed out, so I went to the local office supply store to get a new ink cartridge for my keyboard, and, would you believe it, they didn't have any. I mean, I know my keyboard is getting on in years, but is that any excuse not to carry the refills? Do they really expect me to buy a new keyboard every year just to keep up with them? Anyway, I figured that maybe it was just well hidden, so I cornered a clerk and asked him where the keyboard refills were, and he just stares at me! So I ask him again, and he says he doesn't know. So then I ask to talk to the manager, and he says he'll go get her, and as he's walking away from me I can clearly hear him laughing under his breath. That's just rude.

Moments later Linda, the manager, comes out, and I ask her where the keyboard refills are, and get this: She tells me that they don't exist! Now I've had to put up with a lot of crap through the years as a consumer, but this was a new one, even to me. I mean, if you don't carry the damn product, just admit it! Don't lie to me just to cover up your failings. I mean, does she think I'm an idiot, or something?

Anyway, to make a long story short, I don't think I'll be shopping there anymore. I would go into more detail, but it suddenly occurs to me that I need to go order a new ink cartridge somewhere online before I run completely out of ink.

CA18DET, loom, t28 turbo, fmic, full exhaust, ecu, surgetank setup with external pump also, aftermarket manifold and gearbox.

its a full drop in and go!

wats it worth?

Ill sell you my complete 220kw CA18 setup but you aren't going to like the price. Cost of the parts including engine, trans, GT2871R, 1200kg extreme clutch, exhaust, inter and oil coolers including hoses and piping loom, custom billet parts, tuned ECU (3 day tuning) basically everything you need is $10,400 and i'll be selling it for a bit over half.

PM me if your interested. LOL

are u one of the girl guides that helps with the flags at dawn service...

i hope it f**king pours

except when we're outdoor doing dawn service. but if it does, so be it.

bacon n eggs with the diggers is worth a few drops of h20

-D

nah, not dawn service my friend. we're armed and not so dangerous for the main march (read: rifles but no ammo unfortunately). keep an eye out near the rear of the march for the current active units. I'll blend in with the rest, but i'll be in amongst 3rd Field Squadron, Royal Australian Engineers

ahh. they given u a 303 SMLE or a FN FAL ?

I used to do that march when I was an army cadet... a loooong long time ago

was always an interesting day

-D

Freebies anyone? I wouldnt use it personally but hey its free use it on a daily or something haha http://www.turtlewax.com.au/sample.php

still waiting on my chamois from last year... wonder where did that go...

    • 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.
