Hopefully not a repost..

Starts at about 4 min.

"Intrigued to say the least, he was just sleeping lol. Then woke to find windows covered and people shouting . Probably another crazy game show"

"My Wife just translated it for me.

The police noticed the car parked suspiciously, so they did a number plate check. The Number plate was reported stolen, so they took a look inside. The guy sleeping inside was identified as someone wanted (maybe for murder, but my wife wasn't sure). Supposedly he had a rep for being violent, so they performed the unusual ritual on the car while he was asleep."

Reminded me of one of those Steve Erwin jobs where he wakes up a sleeping Crocodile just to jump on it and try and wrestle the thing into a truck..gotta admit this guy has some balls if not brains..

oh and why did the cops not just break into the boot or similar and disconnect the battery etc? im not much of a mechanic but surely there would be a way to disable the thing from the outside?

yeah that last minute or so was quite painful to watch, he must have been having a nice old slumber before being woken up by half of Tokyo's finest. wonder if the owner would bother getting it fixed or just throw it to the auction houses?

those cops are seriously retarded. even after all the stupid stop sticks and barriers and then a van and a bus he still nearly got away. they put the bus in front of him but the van was meters behind giving him a good run up which put his life and theirs in danger and if he'd been able to see which way to turn chances are he would ahve gotten out without a good launch in the right direction.

instead of fking about with all that crap all they had to do was put the van right on the rear bumper and the bus right on the front bumper then kick in the window and haul him out. but no, they'd much rather call in 20 cops, 5 vehicles and spend an hour or two pissing about.

I did like that typical japanese he's braking the law but still put his left indicator on to exit the curb... lol.

      Magnetic Drain Plug Snapped in Half

      By kevboost7 · Posted

      Update: I got the magnet out. I bought 3 different flexible magnetic reach tools, but none of them worked. The magnet on the tip was all less than 2lbs of force, so i had to buy a special cylindrical magnet that had a pull force of 9lbs.  The magnet finally came in the mail yesterday, so i got under the car to get to work. The super strong magnet isn't that long, so i only have about 1 finger pinch lengths to hold it. I was so scared when i was going in the hole, that the 9lb magnet would just fly away inside the oil pan never to be seen again, but i had my butt cheeks clenched and finger gripped on that thing so tight, i managed to get it to suck the other magnet out.  It was a victory for me last night.

      New fix for low tyre pressure from bmw

      Yep, pretty much what you said is a good summary. The aftermarket thing just attached to the rim, then has two lines out to valve stems, one to inner wheel, one to outer wheel. Some of the systems even start to air up as you head towards highway speed. IE, you're in the logging tracks, then as speeds increase it knows you're on tarmac and airs up so the driver doesn't even have to remember. I bet the ones that need driver intervention to air up end up seeing a lot more tyre wear from "forest pressures" in use on the highway!

      Anyone know this frontpipe?

      Yes, but you need to do these type certifications for tuning parts. That is the absurd part here. Meaning tuning parts are very costly (generally speaking) as well as the technical test documentation for say a turbo swap with more power. It just makes modifying everything crazy expensive and complicated. That bracket has been lost in translation many years ago I assume, it was not there.

      Hahaha, yeah.... not what you'd call a tamper-proof design.... but yes, with the truck setup, the lines are always connected, but typically they sit just inside the plane of the rear metal mudguards, so if you clear the guards you clear the lines as well. Not rogue 4WD tracks with tree branches and bushes everywhere, ready to hook-up an air hose. You can do it externally like a mod, but dedicated setups air-pressurize the undriven hubs, and on driven axles you can do the same thing, or pressurize the axles (lots of designs out there for this idea)... https://www.trtaustralia.com.au/traction-air-cti-system/  for example.... ..the trouble I've got here... wrt the bimmer ad... is the last bit...they don't want to show it spinning, do they.... give all the illusion that things are moving...but no...and what the hell tyre profile is that?...25??? ...far kernel, rims would be dead inside 10klms on most roads around here.... 😃

      You're just describing how type certification works. Personally I would be shocked to discover that catalytic converter is not in the stock mounting position. Is there a bracket on the transfer case holding the catalytic converter and front pipe together? If so, it should be in stock position.
