Morning Niz one more day huh.:(

Hey paul i know ure out there, remeber how when the main whoring started no1 could prove u were the ring leader? i guess this is proof huh :P just messing with ya as u cant say anything back :(

How cool was the fog this morning that rulz, so many tools not turning on their lights. *sigh*

The mighty Hyundai feels the wrath of thieves!!!

Well well well,

What a crap night I had last night. On the way home battling freeway traffic the girlfriend and I decided to stop for food at a fast food joint.... We headed down Canning Hwy to the Hungry Jack's and had dinner....

... Well, the next thing that happened suprised the hell outta me, as we were walking back to the car a nice lady ran upto us and said "Is this your car ?" we were like "Ummm, Yeah, why?" she then informed us that she saw someone smash the passenger window, reach in and grab a bag and then take off in a dark coloured car....(luckily she got the rego!) My girlfriend drives a stock-as-a-rock Accent btw... nothing to attract attention to it at all!

Thieves had jammed a screwdriver of some kind into the bottom of the the window and levered it up until the window shattered into a million pieces, glass was everywhere dammit!

Thinking my gf's bag was stolen from the front seat I thought "oh crap" then I realised she took it into HJ's with us, however my bag was on the back seat and they took it! Bastards!

In the bag was my work diary/book, Taxation forms, Finance crap, Insurance crap, some very important CDs with backup data etc, my Quicksilver jacket, and the bag was a Rip Curl one too. just to put icing on the cake..

So we called the police and told them everything, then we call the insurance company and book the car in to get it fixed the next day (today).... okay, so we drop off the car this morning to the smash repairs and I drove my girlfriend to work, as now she wont have a car for the next few days and has to pay her insurance excess too!

On the way to work I get a call from a man who went on his morning walk all the way out Embleton-way (the stuff was stolen in South Perth!) who said he'd found my diary, cd's and paperwork on the side of the road.. phew! what a relief!

So in summary: There are some mighty nice people around like the lady that tracked us down and gave us the rego, and the man who found my stuff and called me.... it honestly suprises me that people did that for a complete stranger, i guess we were just lucky.

However this still doesn't bring back my $180 jacket and $80 bag.... but still.. at least I got my paperwork back!

Okay, so that's my rant for this morning :P

Vspec asked me to post this

"Post this

The fog was kinda cool, but when your tired it kinda helps put you back to sleep.

I'm not the ring leader, just the catalyst for whoring

See'ya"

    • Throwing my spoon to the soup here a bit.  When I installed a 044 back in 2012, along with the direct power mod, the car became very difficult to start. To a point I burned one starter motor as I was late for work and tried to get the thing going. With some tuning and careful use of gas pedal when cranking it became bearable. Trying to make this short as possible, but the 044 died after 2-3 years, after which I went with an AEM 320lph pump, which also died after about 4 years to my dismay. After that I went with a Nismo pump, and while trying diagnose an emissions problem, I noticed for the first time that my fuel pressure was 5bar/72psi on idle, and that removing the vacuum line did nothing. After monitoring the situation, and removing the direct power feed and going back to FPCM in attempts to remedy it, I noticed there was fuel in the pressure regulator vac line. Kept the FPCM, installed AEM external regu and the car became sooo much better in every way, including starting. And I had driven it like it was for 11 years.. Anyway, I agree these are likely two different problems, and the FP problem you just haven't noticed before. I do not know much about haltecs, but what first came to mind was the CAS, which probably is not there any more. So how is the wiring from haltec to gauge cluster? How is the battery voltage and alternator?
    • Your car was auto before? You have different diff ratio (auto vs manual i think? or n/a and turbo?)
    • +1 for getting a screen off alibaba, CarPlay/Android Auto is vastly better than whatever navigation cars had 10 years ago. I got an Android screen for my 2015 BMW, huge difference. Fully compatible with factory stuff including iDrive controls.
