Someone needs to enlighten me on some of the pricing of foods in these Japaneses restaurants

I'm sure Hamish/Alvin knows

Particularity the pricing of sushi & sashimi

Don't get me wrong I love japanese food but where some restaurants you pay $15-$20 for a few pieces of sashimi. Im like rightio

It's a raw fish so not much prep if any is required?

So which then leads to how much cost variance is there in the quality of fish?

Because I can't taste much difference...! Between sashimi in an average restaurant and a high end one. The plate just looks prettier with a few fancy things on the side.

i just go to suzuran, and get my sashimi blocks now. i'm getting lazy. and i dont really want to deal with anything other than salmon/kingfish/cobia belly.

I love that attitude that people get when working for prestige companies...

Oh I would never drive less than a Mercedes... Even though I earn 60k and could never afford one...

Same goes for Louis Vuitton shop assistants etc

lol I know

Everyone here hates chryslers especially, I love it when the comments come from the people that don't even have the slightest idea about cars.. You just laugh at them

Chrysler Neon is where its at. cult following in mericas.

good ol' NFS Underground days

jks, its a piece of shit. but would play that game if they ported it to iOS. still play Tony Hawk 2 on my phone, kick flips are bawla

gents and kents.

anyone got air con and window tinting hookups in south east?

Car air-con or home air-con?

If home I'm getting some units installed this Wednesday via a SAU member

thinking something similar to this soon...

car man..... sounds alright with the home stuff? he doing you a good discount?

Haha sure. Still learning the clutch a lot lighter than I'm used to, and about double the power of the 626 it's replacing

:D. My friend was looking to get one of these too (albeit sedan)... they look quite nice! Leather interior and comforts, yet grunt where you need it :P.

Lol lighter clutch AND more powah. Dat daily?

Lol had it all set up for the delivery but missed the mark.

Birds came in and salvaged what was left haha

Or perhaps I set it up for Birds, I know he loves his quips. Just call me the puppetmaster.

Yup daily duties, has a decent tow capacity too :) Parking was interesting this morning though, very light steering.

Will be calling vicroads shortly to find out what hoops I have to jump through

Preparing my anus for this summer

My mind doesnt usually sit in the gutter, but read this the first time round. thought you might have been referring to power bills.

Good new from Vicroads for a change! *celebrate*

If your car has been engineered/new engine number, and you have put a different motor in it... all you have to do is go to Vicroads, tell them its the same engine as the engineer, have a signed piece of paper from mechanic with new/old engine number and they'll change the details for you. So when cop checks cert, tell them to check their system details and it should all be there. wew.

Inb4 defected for everything anyway.

as long as the number follows the same sequence as stock... e.g. RB25xxxxxxxxxxxx

this is boss when you get situations like an AE71 with a 4AC motor and the numbers are just 4Axxxxxxxxxxxx and a 4AGE is also 4Axxxxxxxxxx

    • Finally replaced the previous temporary mesh indicator surrounds (temporary was the last 10+ years 😂) with a 3D printed GTR style version for the front indicators. I think it looks a lot nicer than the old setup and at least the indicators now point in the correct direction rather than angled off. Needed a little bit of tweaking to deal with the intercooler piping but got there in the end. Old and new photos below. 
    • It's weird to me that you say this because I'm pretty sure locals with relatively standard standalone tunes (boost/barometric compensated alpha-N) still have driveability issues when they pop intercooler hoses. Maybe with enough data I can just train some kind of model that spits out an expected grams/cyl given every sensor input except MAF like what FCA did with their Pentastar 3.6 ECU logic. Basically stock everything. The main motivation honestly is to have a sensor that can be a decent baseline source of truth. In scenarios you're describing obviously it won't work every time but it seems to me the number of corner cases that exist in MAF load is maybe not as severe and difficult to manage vs ITB alpha-N with some MAP/barometric compensation.
    • What are your plans for your blow off valves? Purely plumb back? How soft will the spring in them be? AFM can be tricky to get super smooth and nice, especially depending on the rest of the system, and then can be very easily upset if something slightly changes. IE, even if you run recirc blow off valves, you could still see issues getting it to behave at certain load points as turbos might start to spool, but you release the throttle but it's not enough pressure to crack the bov open to recirc, and you can end up with reversion which can cause double metering, and hence dumping of fuel into the system, and stalling the engine.   If you're going to run a map sensor for closed loop boost control from the ECU, what makes you want to keep the AFM?    
    • It's not bad, it's just not flexible. And say if you have any leaks between the MAF and plenum, well then your load axis goes out the window. Here's a real world scenario, I blew off an intercooler hose last track day, as the clamp decided to Bluetooth itself somewhere. Still continued to do 2 laps and drive it to the pub for a couple of beers then home. Good luck doing that with a MAF setup 
    • Is MAF load really that bad? I'm not trying to do big power, my only real desire is VCAM and flex fuel support so I'm not terrified of blowing my engine apart from CA's appalling 95 RON "premium" fuel. Stuff like playing with closed loop boost control and really dialing in my transient fueling and ignition are frankly just to prove to myself I remembered something from uni.
