Yep Mannheim and pickles, Mannheim usually get out fleet stuff..

There is one G55 in belmore lol goes up on Tuesday! Should be on the pickles site now

I've seen that one actually- but it has very high kms from memory.

Back to MB (and sorry to be annoying)- how does it work? I've seen some cars go dirt cheap, others for good money. Do they set a reserve based on what is owing? How do they decide what they are chasing for repo vehicle?

Boss car although the new GL AMG is way hotter I rkn the G is a bit strange on our roads and resale would be disaster since nobody has em I rkn

Thanks for the input mate. :). I do think it will be hard to sell down the track.

Personally not a fan of any of the GLs or MLs or even the boxy G series really lol, but it is a present that my brother and I are getting for my Dad, as he loves the G series.

Congrats dude...when you off Ps?

That the one Titan found for you?

Cheers man. Lol soon enough! But that doesn't actually matter, it's clearly just a CE lancer with a body kit. Fake it until you make it ;).

Different one actually.

Oooooh sheeeet

Congrats bro, you are now my newest enemy

Aww shiieett is what I'm still saying to myself lols. HAHA cheers... come back to the light side bro.

I see what you did thar.. !

Outside the bakery never seen so many people interested / staring at my bike for up to 5 mins each.. dafaq? Guess it's quite a bit different than your everyday standard jap sport bike.. Waiting for my carbon bits and bling!

No worries!

The third party auctioneer does a valuation on it. Based on that we compare it to red book and glasses guide, and set a reserve on it. Try and get the best price we can so the debtor pays less on the shortfall.

If it doesn't meet our reserve its usually dissapproved for sale, but if its been up a few times with minimal bites, we may drop the reserve, or negotiate with the highest bidder..

Too many things come into it though, like the type of auction (luxury or prestige or general etc) then market flooding.. So say a fleet goes under and 10 of the same car have to go up for sale in the same auction, then they will obviously sell for less..

okay SAU IT help me out;

I have 1x samsung smart tv & 1 dumb tv

I want to be able to watch downloaded content

I want to be able to download torrents/files remotely & store them on a server

Im guessing I need a DLNA network attached storage (NAS) & a wdlive for my dumb tv.

Can someone recommend me a good NAS + media player (wdlive?)

Should I use the samsung smarthub to browse files; or buy two media player thingos? (wdlive)

Thank you ^^,

Make sure you get a NAS with a good operating system on it, one that runs a torrent client so you can just download directly to it.

As for the media players not too sure what the samsung smarthub looks like or is to use, maybe try it out if its annoying buy a media player for it, other option is one of these things:

And if it were me I'd probably buy one of these to control it (~$45):

how custom or do you want a bought one?

custom

HP NL54 + 4 hdd's + freenas installed on a usb stick

bought one

QNAP TS-420 + 4 drives

Yeh no worries, logitech one works as well with the samsungs we use em at work, same shiz though. Makes it far easier to navigate.

Those little things 'barebones' are basically small PCs yes.

What sold me were the tv remote buttons on the keyboard.

    • Got the motor out and torn down. I'll be dropping off the block Monday. Luckily the scoring on Cyl6 is much less pronounced then the pictures made it out to seem. It can barely be felt. If you pass your finger over it 10x you'll barely notice it. Hopefully by some chance it will only require a honing. I'm not in the mood to buy one size larger pistons or another block. Oddly enough my 6th cylinder with the scoring has extremely clean intake valves compared to my other 5 cylinders. I'm worried the scoring was caused by too much fuel or Water/Methanol washing the cylinder. I'll review some old logs to confirm.  This was also the first time I pull an engine with the transmission still attached. It went much better then expected. I was worried my CD009 wouldn't make it easy due to its sheer size but it was much easier this way. 
    • From the pictures I have when doing the job the flywheel is the same diameter, I don't think they're playing weird tricks like putting weights at the outer diameter to increase flywheel inertia or anything like that. The OEM flywheel is definitely heavier, but it's not a huge difference. Quoted weight savings of the clutch is 2 kg so I can't imagine the flywheel being lighter than ~7 kg. Kind of regret not weighing it before the clutch went into the car but as far as driveability goes I have no complaints.
    • HKS trigger kit should be very easy to integrate with a Link. It's a 36-2 crank trigger. Hard part is finding the motivation to take off the timing belt and everything on the front of the engine to install it. You also need to cut out a hole in the oil pump housing so the sensor can read the trigger wheel. Changing out the cam sensor for a 24 tooth setup is probably good enough but as others have mentioned depending on what underlying assumptions are changed it becomes more of a problem. Reading the crank state off of the cam is an abstraction that works in the general case, but if you have an edge case it makes less and less sense. There is a GTX2860 gen 2 that can take a compact 5 bolt housing so it's direct bolt on but I'm not 100% sure of what's involved. Peak compressor efficiency drops off a bit on these turbos vs -5s, 77% vs 73% but you get way, way wider region of operation. The -5s have a really strange surge line in their compressor map that is all over the place. If you think the hot side on the -5s aren't open enough you can try the Tomei T550B turbos which a local tuner seems to be happy with:
