Shit! did it just came off because it wasnt tighten? I got that once and was blowing black smoke all the way back home... (lucky for me its only a few kms away).

Yeah I was blowing black smoke while pulled over, couldn't even get it to move, it was idling around 200 and sputtering.

It was tight as anything, I just installed my pod cover a month ago and tightened and rechecked all the piping connections... when it popped off today I'd been pushing it reallllllly hard for the previous half hour or so, out bush on mountain roads hahaha. I'm thinking maybe some new clamps would be a good idea before I head out there again.

yea... clamps or have an extra cover over it. I've seen some that got wrapped up in black rubber stuff with clamps on both ends. If you include the original pipe clamps thats 3 in total!

What happened???

I think my thermostat isn't working :) Temp on the dash board said it was ok but when it was cool it took two litres of water in the radiator. Fouled up one of the plugs and was only running on 5 cylinders. A hose on the intake was split and sucked a bunch of sh_t into the throttle body. Fun fun fun... considering I only just got it serviced not that long ago :laugh:

Seems to be ok now. Keep my fingers crossed and everything else too :(

Sup all. Heads up for anyone that was planning on coming down to visit today I probably won't be home till 4ish have to do another run back home to pick up some shit that got left behind yesterday. I'm keeping my license till the 14th though so we can do a final cruise

/housewarming next weekend? I'll probably head down the spit this afternoon though for anyone who is interested.

Jeez, I thought I had a bad time sitting on a highway service road for half an hour finding my problem..... Jason it sounds like you're having a LOT more fun than me :)

Sorry to hear mate... got everything going good now though yeah?

+1 for next weekend. But keep in mind of the drag day on Saturday!

Didnt vspec said he was gonna organize a photo shoot next Sunday after he got his car repainted? Any news?

Cleaned the plug it was all fouled up. Started it up and idled ok. You go to the hamilton pub ? Im sure I've seen your car parked there a couple of times.

Geeezz thats a whole list of stuff! My fingers are crossed as well .....

Not looking forward to the drive to toowoomba to drop my daughter off. If anyone is going that way around 3 i'll be leaving ipswich then so if you see me broked down... can you give me a lift ?

Not sure if i can come yet but are any of you guys heading out to the drag arvo convoy style .....

You can organize 1. I'll probably be heading there with john and adam if he's coming at all

    • I should note too as I have all 4 wheel speed inputs to the emtron I now have the emtron controlling the attessa solenoid for 4wd/traction and launch control strategies. 
    • It works quite well with the adjustibility within each of the programs of the turbolamik. Essentially p1 is drive and lockup comes on like a normal driver.  But in program 7 I have customised it to not request the lockup clutch to engage until something like 6500/7 when slip was the lowest. 
    • Yep, I like that. The tags are only on the first post of a thread and we don't get huge numbers of new threads. Also, I plan to add some more report types and we could have a member report type like 'review tags' then members could flag if they thought a topic wasn't tagged correctly.  No way man, I dig the input. Thanks! 
    • It's a valid thought. There's not exactly that functionality already (when creating a thread) - that's where the OP can use/create any tag they want. We'd have to come up with a way for the user to request their tags get reviewed or something. Otherwise the mods would have to review every new post's tags (for those that have them, anyway). There's kind of that functionality already exists to some extent, post facto of starting the thread, where the OP or any other user could report the post to admins, and request that tags get reviewed. We could do this already, and any user could already have made such a request. To make it a part of the forum proper, it would require an initial and an ongoing education programme, so that people know that it's a thing. OP based tagging/request for review would also require at least some (probably most) of the user base to be told that it's a thing they can do. Both of these things probably wouldn't spread too far and/or get used very much. If it was the standard approach on a lot of different sites, then it might do, because people would be used to it. Prank's approach to this differs from my original thought, by leaning into tagging. Which is fine - it's possibly better than what I originally suggested. In fact, I just went to the R32 GTR wiring diagram thread and added tags, including "Library". That's probably a good way to use tags and the idea of a library. We just have to drag together an (organised!) index of threads or posts that have that tag. I have yet to do any of my own follow up by pursuing worthy threads and posts and reporting/marking/tagging them for the library, such as the @Sydneykid stuff I was talking about, and possibly any amount of @Lithium 's and others' posts. At least if I tag them Library, we'll have a start.   Back to @Wazmond's idea as it relates to @PranK's, we might have some sort of a list of tags that are already used to scrape for this library. I'm not entirely sure how that would be presented or used, particularly if it got long. But it's yet another idea!   cheers
    • Just a thought, but instead of restricting, is it possible to do like an "up for review" kind of thing? Where say someone who's not an admin/mod tags, it would require approval for it to actually tag? User posts with a 'tag' > Admin/Mod Reviews > Approves tag > Tag now exists kinda thing? Just came across this thread so Im not too sure if Im straying off topic or not but forgive me if i am...
