would love to, but im real busy before xmas. and already attending the SAU QLD xmas party / happy laps at lakeside. get in on that guys, it should be good

club members/partners are $25 a piece. non members are $50 a peice.

they were doing signup on the day at the Charity cruise and waiving the initial signup fee, which basically saves you most of it in one outting

Replacing with 2 of the same only costing $480 for the pair so not too bad.

I am gonna keep the old ones for skid pan days.

which sensor do you speak of?? not sure which you mean

i think you'll find its the stop start that does that. 350 does seem a bit low, but 400-450 can be expected in crap traffic. i thought my car was starting to have some issues like this recently, as my girl has been driving to and fro Clonarrrf in it for work, and getting poor fuel economy in lame ass traffic..........45-50 mins for 35km's is just wrong.

but after running to the gold coast and back this weekend, with the A/C blasting the whole time, plus some to and fro in regular (almost the speed limit sometimes) traffic, im looking at an easy 500 km tank.

the wife is only driving from Narangba(forest ridge near the BP on oakey flat road) to just near chooks matilda which is on old gympie road in the narangba industrial area near the highway so the traffic she sees is well.. none.. except the traffic lights at narangba station

even on a good burn down the highway we have not got over 460 to a tank

we run shell V power if that makes a difference

I was thinking it may have been the coolant temp sensor I believe it is called, I have read a few of the bad fuel economy threads and they seem to say it is usually the o2 sensor.. a dirty AFM or the coolant sensor or a heavy right foot

the only other thing i can think of it being is a dead cat? as it is still running the stock standard exhaust system

and the AC doesn't work(needs a regas i guess)

Yeah could very well be that coolant temp sensor, It will leave a car in cold start mode which chews fuel like a mofo.

Alternatively it could also be your thermostat it has been known on rar occasions to remain mostly closed and as such it takes the car a long time to heat up all the collant and report back that the car isn't in cold start mode.

[Excuses]

The highflow won't turn up if it is being delivered to your house (which im sure it is at your work.. hmm.) i think ill use it for a while longer:P

Well, it's a toss up, new pc or split dump pipe.. swtor rocks up in 2 weeks, so i need to make a decision ><

[RandomHero83]

don't get a split dump, get a dump and front in 1. split dumps have issues when mass manufactured.

[blackers10]

thanks randomhero,

its next on our list of parts to replace, as well as somthing that is causing the front suspension to clunk when we are reverseing and brake, and now somtimes when braking going forward, but the steering is un affected

already replaced the castor rods with adjustable option 1 garage items, so its not those

[RandomHero83]

Could be a ball joint or something of the like.

[blackers10]

are ball joints DIY'able ?? where is best place to aquire them?? bursons/repco or ebay or other??

I am used to regular aussie cars(all my previous cars were ford fairlanes.. ZL(XF shape), NA (EA shape), AU.. where parts are easy as pie to get from the usual sources

all this import part shenanigans is new to me haha
