Mugabetown - Whoretownin' At It's Worst.


Recommended Posts

Eh hang around here long enough and it won't matter about broken tags, we're an interesting bunch lol

Many new people? Remember I know most of the people. I have been around these forums for a year or two....

Well, more accurately you'd need to ask 2 questions there:

1. Do I want any experience building LS motors?

2. Do you really need to build an LS motor?

Sean at EFI had those things almost scraping 800hp at the tyres with reliability not being an issue whatsoever

Well... I have a dismantled ls1 motor in my shed and am chasing some decent numbers, but here's the catch *takes deep inhale* We need to do it naturally aspirated due to mod plate BS

Hidden NOS might/may/could possibly be an option for someone (rant proofed lol)

New people, well pretty much everyone man... The club kinda disintegrated within itself after some falling outs that occurred *not to be discussed in public* but yer lots of new guys, myself included I guess.

Only really OG people around now are bunta (andrew) and Ants (er ants lol)... Noel's never around anymore and Dave (rhino rebel) only occasionally pops up.

But us new folk are good value :wave:

Oh ok, Yeah I can build anything you want. Engines I'm not familiar with I just refuse to offer advise on part selection and tech shit really. I'm not going to tell you what cam is best or whatever but all engines are the same on the inside essentially. Some are better designed, however.

Where I'm working at the moment is a Jeep specialist so I've been doing quite a bit of different stuff lately. A few 4.7 Hemis, a couple of 1943-5 Willys Jeep engines and a 1945 Dodge Weapons Carrier. Your LS1 wouldn't be an issue

Don't you love auto correct lol Imagine ordering that and coke in a bar lol

I cannot imagine ordering that beverage on account of the fact it tastes like shit haha!!

Let's see if they filtered out any decent Whiskey?

Lagavulin

Laphroaig

Caol Ila

Talisker

They're a super complex intricate mind field maze of an engine definitely super technical and difficult lol

Working for a jeep dealership that's Different avenue man how'd that come about

Animal? Bacon is Bacon....it doesn't come from an animal, it comes from heaven

Homer: Are you saying you're never going to eat any animal again? What about bacon?

Lisa: No.

Homer: Ham?

Lisa: No.

Homer: Pork chops?

Lisa: Dad, those all come from the same animal.

Homer: Heh heh heh. Ooh, yeah, right, Lisa. A wonderful, magical animal.

    • 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.
