As some of you may know Mel (Datgirl) and I will be teaming up together this week for Targa High Country in the Envy Scooters Holden V8 Ute (yeah, yeah, we know it's not a Skyline, but it's two SAUers running together in a cool car still!)

Read all about it here: Envy Scooters get girl powered for Targa High Country

We'll do our best to keep everyone up-to-date with our progress.

Envy Scooters are also running a competition on their Facebook page which everyone can enter to win an awesome prize. All you have to do is answer this question: Which of the Envy Scooters racecars will finish first and why?

Hint: your answer better include Mel and Kel winning ;)

Congrats again on getting the gig girls! See you up there :)

What's the plan? Drive it smooth and aim for a result or to hell with a result and rip tyres off the thing all the way up Buller and watch the video go viral? :)

Thanks all! The plan at the moment is to follow the 'bring it home in one piece' plan... but I'm sure Datgirl's arm can be easily twisted for a few skids ;)

What may go viral is Mel and I's attempts to look cool on the Envy Scooters the guys are throwing in the back of the ute for us to play around with in our down time. Envy Scooter races down Buller anyone???!!!

Sorry all- we had trouble updating from High Country... maybe we need an app for that ;)

And real life has gotten in the way of posting since coming back to real life!

We had an AMAZING event. Finished (which was the goal) and as a bonus ended up being the first ute home!

We met some interesting people...

      One Headlight isn't working - Driver Side Fuse Keeps blowing

      By dbm7 · Posted

      He's right ~ there is no 'magic' with stuff like this ... it is more likely that in the process of looking for the short, the loom/wire 'incidentally' got moved in the process, thus removing the short ~ now, that maybe a wire (in a loom) rubbing against the edge of some grounded metal, that's worn through the insulation, causing the (now intermittent) short to ground. If one wire in a loom has been damaged in this fashion, it's reasonable to presume that other wires beside it may have also be damaged, and now exposed...you can bet the green crusty copper corrosion will start... ...that'd be a pisser, Murphy's Law steps right in as GTS observes...but worse, something like that is easier to find when shorted...ie; unplug bulb and fuse, and put multimeter in continuity mode so you get constant beep, and carefully poke about hoping to find if some movemet of the harness stop the beeping.... ...it's still all a bit Arnie tho' ..It'll be back... 😃

      Yeah, but knowledge of one wire's insulation worn through to short on earth implies the possibility of other wires doing the same. I had my power steering die, because the wire that runs to the solenoid valve on the rack runs in the same loom as the power wire for the O2 sensor. And when the O2 sensor/wire did something stupid and burnt part of that loom to death, the only indication was the shit(ter) fuel economy and the heavy steering. It took deep excavation of the looms in the bay to find the problem. Not wear through in that case, but similar shit.

      Mistakes were made, my R34 Story

      Ah, I thought he'd wired it to one of the spare ECU inputs! Too long ago since I read that post, ha ha. I've been arguing with radiators, harmonic balancers, alternators and rust since reading it.
