My friend got issued a full EPA based on a noise complaint by police during a pull-over.

Don't they need a reason to issue a full EPA?

Pat thought you knew better than to ask a silly question like that, ofcourse they can do what they want man.

Gyme with no spotter can be a drain... Super struggle town last rep of one of my sets, luckily some good guy greg helped me xD.

All this talk of no money for cars... I know dat feels.

One day, evo. One day... ;___;

Yeah I almost necked myself the other day doing incline barbell bench lol, had to like half stand up to get the bar up and only managed to get it on the lower hooks hahaha must of looked like a retard ah well.

Can never push as hard without a spotter imo.. did decline bench today like 10kgs lighter cos I didn't wanna f**k up haha

Birds stop being sick!

Yeah I was basically there with the bar just above my chest with it not going anywhere... bahaha.

My last rep of incline today I did similar, only barely got it onto the lowest rung and had to like slide underneath lolol. I also helped the guy who helped me... by spotting his 100kg bench. One day...

Wtf full EPA for exhaust on an NA beemer. Is full EPA more $$ than noise etc? (Which was like $40 when I did it iirc). On the one hand, doesn't have to change much (just chuck on stock exhaust) to pass... but on the other, such a hassle just for that.

about 80$

lol wow, why didn't he just put it on his chest and slide it down his legs and off or something

Not to excuse the twit for tryIng to 1RM beyond his limits, with no one else around...but when that much weight falls on you, you can't just move/roll it off you. It crushes against your chest/ribcage and stays there, making it hard to breathe.The best thing you can do is tip the bar to one side (like he eventually did), so that the end of the bar hits the floor...then press the other side off of you (will be approx half the weight). Never ever try to re-rack it like he did, as it can fall on your neck and strangle you like it almost did - you didn't lift it the first time, what makes you think you can press it up when you're even more worn out!

A professional lifter died about a year ago, when 200kg fell on his chest and crushed his bones/organs. Granted, he was using suicide grip and his spotters weren't doing their job.

Car went in for repairs yesterday, called up the place today and find out i'm getting a new door :)

Hopefully it gets colour matched properly...

Asked for quotes to fix a few other little things as well :)

After some fb browsing, I found out that Trent from Chequered Tuning is driftcat's husband.

Interesting...

lol, have you never been down to Chequered or called them? It'll go straight to Cat :P

$28 daily parking In city ey....fml

damn that sucks..

I get pissed off paying 4$ parking at doncaster westfield..

I normally park in public area and move my car every 3 hours.. though today security finally caught on and told me to park in staff carpark.. thought i cant cos too low =/

so prob just cop an extra few $ and leave it in customer parking instead.

    • It is an absolute lottery. They can and have died at stock boost with low usage at all. The turbos are now anywhere up to 36 years old!
    • Huh, wonder why it blew then. I never really beat on the car THAT hard lol I dailyed it and the turbo blew after 6 months
    • That's odd, it works fine here. Try loading it on a different device or browser? It's Jack Phillips JDM, a Skyline wrecker in Victoria. Not the cheapest, but I have found them helpful to find obscure parts in AU. https://jpjdm.com/shop/index.php
    • Yeah. I second all of the above. The only way to see that sort of voltage is if something is generating it as a side effect of being f**ked up. The other thing you could do would be to put a load onto that 30V terminal, something like a brakelamp globe. See if it pulls the voltage away comepletely or if some or all of it stays there while loaded. Will give you something of an idea about how much danger it could cause.
    • I would say, you've got one hell of an underlying issue there. You're saying, coils were fully unplugged, and the fuse to that circuit was unplugged, and you measured 30v? Either something is giving you some WILD EMI, and that's an induced voltage, OR something is managing to backfeed, AND that something has problems. It could be something like the ECU if it takes power from there, and also gets power from another source IF there's an internal issue in the ECU. The way to check would be pull that fuse, unplug the coils, and then probe the ECU pins. However it could be something else doing it. Additionally, if it is something wired in, and that something is pulsing, IE a PWM circuit and it's an inductive load and doesnt have proper flyback protection, that would also do it. A possibility would be if you have something like a PWM fuel pump, it might be giving flyback voltages (dangerous to stuff!). I'd put the circuit back into its "broken" state, confirm the weird voltage is back, and then one by one unplug devices until that voltage disappears. That's a quick way to find an associated device. Otherwise I'd need to look at the wiring diagrams, and then understand any electrical mods done.   But you really should not be seeing the above issue, and really, it's indicating something is failing, and possibly why the fuse blew to begin with.
