Car impounded from parking spot in st Kilda. ran into the tow truck and politely asked if he could grab my wallet "you are not allowed to touch the vehicle".

*sigh*

$50 says they'll be a ticket inspector on the train who will still issue me a ticket.

i suggest we assemble a team. a team of the very best. then we can avoid all the cameras with our excellent driving skills, grab your car, and make our escape.

i suggest also that we find an abandoned warehouse to construct our test track, and use many different types of cars and drivers to ascertain the best combination.

let the heist begin.

Guy tried to tow the 33 once, 5 minutes before it became a clearway... Long story short he didn't have the balls to go through with it after I caught him. Don't think I have lost it that hard more than maybe 2 or 3 times in my life without actually getting in a fight.

Ended up with me repetedly demanding he hooks the car up and him refusing and apologising hahaha

Geez. thats harsh. I was very calm because I knew what kind of calibre people he would deal with. the yard had like 3 people complaining about abuse and "policies" and shit. I just wanted to save time and was in-out in a flash.

$345 for collecting car, Jonno reminded me about the parking fine on my windscreen :| another $141. Lesson learnt.

Was it a national tow truck? probably... nothing is too harsh for those scumbags.

the vultures sit there in clearways and hook cars up a few minutes before they are allowed to and drive off the absolute second the clock ticks over.

It's illegal but challenging it is not easy.

also, no way in hell anyone is taking my car while i'm standing there unless they are actual cops.

I am aware of their tricks so I NEVER park in clearways, and the one time I nearly had the car taken (mentioned earlier) I KNEW it was a clearway at 4:30, returned to my car at 4:25 and he was already on the ground trying to work out where to put the chain... hence my fury

I'd love to see them lay one hand on the car before that clock ticks over... Would be filming it and taking them to court after taking it to ACA and requesting others to come forward for a class action suit

But then the story would turn into Hoon driver assaults innocent tow truck driver.

    • Behrman is great quality stuff. My 34 has some serious clouding as well but I’m too nervous to try and replace the glass myself so I haven’t bought them yet. 
    • This might be true if you live in NZ but I can't see how this could be true for us locals here.  I've found the customer support for Haltech to be absolutely amazing. I've turned up to Haltech and spent entire days with their tech support guys, they've even helped me with wiring dramas that had nothing to do with their products.  They have the best customer support of any company I've dealt with, I can't imagine how my experiences with them could possibly be any better.
    • If you want to do a single throttle body conversion easily, you won't need to pull anything apart. Take the linkage from your throttle off the linkage controlling the ITBs. Now open the ITBs wide open, and lock the linkages in said position. Now add a single throttle body onto the front of your inlet plenum. No it's not ideal for the last nth of a kw, but it'll be a lot better than what you're already trying to do...   PS, ITBs can be so damn hard to tune from, because roughly 20% movement in a throttle body equates to a change in roughly 80% of its flow (Hence power). When you add up the flow limitations of those small throttle bodys, it is a LOT higher than that of a single large throttle. Hence, TPS is very very sensitive with them, and you do a LOT of work with sensor fusion, and some Maths behind the scenes to make those blends nice, and be smooth.
    • Yep, when Haltech purchased Adaptronic, and all of the Adaptronic staff, including Andy went with it, it took Haltech to the next level. Haltech wanted Adaptronic as they wanted things like Andy's fuel models, and some other IP, AND they wanted Andy too as he is brilliant! Andy has spoken about the incompatibilities between the old 1500 stuff vs Nexxus, and it totally makes sense. It's not JUST software that is different, there is huge changes in the underlying hardware too. It's why Haltech has had soooo many changes in the last couple of years, in terms of Hardware, and Software, and why it has become so damn Amazing. Why do you think guys like Rob Dahm with his quad rotor, went from running Adaptronic's to running Haltechs? Andy. Pretty much, Haltech these days, is Adaptronic, but with more funds behind it, and more staff, and hence Andy's visions, and visions of other people that he helps shape their great visions, into amazing new products. All the new Nexxus gear, whole new software for it, new and better dashboards, the apps that will run on headunits and NOT be slow to respond! I understand people being burnt in the past, but if you're ragging on a company, about products and issues from many years ago, it's more a reflection on yourself, not looking or keeping up with new stuff. In which case, those people should be going back to PowerFC and Nistunes as the ECU's to rave on about...
