Mugabetown - Whoretownin' At It's Worst.


Recommended Posts

Indeed I did.....still wouldnt drive it by choice. but for the price...i guess you cant argue. would still go for the Hatsu or similar small FWD cheapness instead. I miss my Madaz i find this hard to Believe. But then P platers are pretty bad at driving :) I assume you mean newer? to me an old car has a Carby :thumbsup: night Ants, hope to see it out and about soon.

lol yep. Meant 5 years newer. Yeah hopefully the car will be ready this week :)

Morning all, T minus 59 mins and counting to tooth extraction....

Why? The mazda makes a few kw more and the same torque and is only a smidge heavier. It also has no lag. Which I think was the deciding factor.

sorry I read Mk.V.

correct, but P platers still suck at driving :)

That sucks major balls! I hated having my wisdom teeth removed, mine hurt like a bitch mind you I had two done in the chair and heard them cracking them off my jawbone and the other two they put me to sleep for and apparently I was trying to talk to the nurse about my car whilst the surgeon was trying to get my teeth out, I also woke up to find a piece of paper which I had scrawled my blood pressure on at different readings - The nurses found it entertaining, still have no idea how I got a piece of paper and a highlighter *scratches head* my recovery sucked took close to 2 months in total waa!

And morning everyone, happy (or not so happy) Monday... Came to a great realisation this morning that I can watch Initial D on youtube whilst on the cardio equipment at the gym - That was a good start to the day :)

Oh that does sound bad, I had my wisdom teeth out (and had two extra for a total of 6 :0 ) but my surgeon was awesome, i was alright in 4 days, had them out on Monday and played rugby on the Sunday with no issues. I was pretty weird recovering from anesthetic too. I woke up, unplugged my heart monitor and pulled out my iv and took my self for a bit of a walk, I was half way down the hall to the elevators before they worked out where I went!

dentist appointment tomorrow, hopefully i don't get any bad news about mine. One sort of started to poke through in the last few years, but then stopped.

Hopefull you have adequate private health cover for this because dentist = mega cost

Just rang TNT maybe it won't arrive today... Really getting annoyed about this process

welcome to my world........................were everything appears to be so slow that I feel like Flash Gordon sometimes by comparison

    • Thanks for that Paul.  Do you think if I posted a picture you'd be able to remember where it went? 
    • Sorry Duncan, I didn't get a notification for the replies.  Thanks for responding!  It's a full Android device, but does allow you to use CarPlay/AA as well.  This is the one I bought from NaviRS on AliExpress: https://www.aliexpress.com/item/1005006368602668.html?spm=a2g0o.order_list.order_list_main.111.59aa1802JDzQ0E - the 2K 8G-256G CAM variant but it seems to have gone up by £170 since I bought it!  My purchase was £307.14.   It's not the fastest thing in the world but performs perfectly adequately.  It stays on standby unless I disconnect the battery and let it power down, then it's just a fairly standard Android bootup time from cold.  The DSP Equaliser is very nice and made the standard stereo system sound pretty decent compared to the stock screen.  Perhaps I can take a video of it when I get a sec. It *allegedly* supports the reverse camera, but I'm yet to get that working.  It has options for reverse cam (a camera unit can be bought separately) or 360 cameras (also bought separately).  To be fair it doesn't seem to detect that the shifter was put into reverse but I'm working on a theory about this as well.  At the moment I'm going without which is a bit annoying considering the car is an absolute canal barge but so far I haven't caused any damage I'll grab a picture of the wire I'm missing later today when I can get outside.  My theory, by the by, is that not only is the head unit different, but the CANBUS network has different signals for the different years.  I think this because I have a spare AC panel from a newer Infiniti G37 (as opposed to my Nissan panel) which wouldn't control anything except the volume when I had it wired up with the stock system.  I'm going to throw it back in and see if the screen will respond to it.  I've just ordered an arduino CANBUS module so I can have a look at the signals going around the car and see if I can spot anything.  I'm thinking if I can work out what it's expecting vs what it's getting I might be able to translate and relay the signal back but so far just a theory anyway. I also found this on my travels, so far the only one that specifically matches my car: https://www.aliexpress.com/item/1005002822934280.html?spm=a2g0s.imconversation.0.0.33433e5fgttovi If you look at the picture of the before, it has the card reader slot, and the picture of the head unit is exactly the same as the one pictured in my original post.  I asked if they sell the cables separately but sadly they won't.  I didn't want to just buy this one because it's a super old Android version and only dual core - likely slow as hell. 
    • As above, you did refill the coolant and burp the system before running it again didn't you?
    • To be fair - you see the same thing for every clutch. There's always someone making an installation error.
    • Just saw this, redacted names. It's on a R33 GTS-t Facebook group. Looks like still teething issues.
