  1. Thanks for doing some research first :) http://www.rollaclub.com/board/index.php?showtopic=2341
  2. I saw them and went :) Teddys rims! :(
  3. Factory quoted 58BHP roughly equals 44kW. Remember BHP does not equal wheel HP.
  4. Hi guys, We have been given 5 invites to the ADVAN Tuning night from our advertising agent go2space. This is an invite only deal and I need to put names on the door. Unfortunately being a Queenslander I'm unable to attend so I'm throwing this open to you guys. If you'd like to attend please send me a PM by tomorrow afternoon (Friday) with your name. Venue: Cargo Lounge (upstairs), Lime St, King St Wharf, Sydney Date: Wednesday 14th October 2009 Time: 6pm-9pm Dress: Smart Casual
  5. Or do what I did. Buy a bag of ice, a styrofoam cooler and some chux cloths. Wrap your ECU in chux cloths and then stick your $2000 aftermarket computer in the styrofoam container with the ice and drive around like that because the retarded ECU manufacturer refuses to acknowledge a flaw in their design. Thank god I got a refund in the end :P Heat related ECU faults are a PIG to diagnose. Even when you do eventually pin it down trying to convince others of the same is a nightmare! Keep at it, you'll get there in the end.
  6. http://rollaclub.com/test/rollaclub.htm The info is completely static but you should get the idea (hint: look on the right side of the thread).
  7. I've had a bit more of a think about this and I might have a preview of an extension of that idea for everyone to have a look at tonight and see if its worthwhile implementing it.
  8. The idea is to post photos you've taken yourself.
  9. Problem is GPS is a one way technology. That thing is just a datalogger, so you'd actually have to be within 10 meters of the car in order to pull the information off it using the bluetooth. Not particularly useful if you don't know where your car is. There are other GPS receivers with a built in packet radio (usually satellite based) that will report back to a central location. Or (if you were in the states and had access to a $99 iPhone) you could try this: http://ephermata.livejournal.com/204026.html
  10. Youtube Video -> Well done!
  11. The lonely, water soaked, Moon.
  12. Thats probably your answer as to WHY it was running an external pump.
  13. Couldn't agree more. You'd be far better off with one of the "worse" designs than having a lip inside the port.
  14. OK lets just get one thing straight... Compressor _surge_ is NOT the same as MAD FLUTTERZ/does. True comp surge is very violent and seldom seen in cars unless you chose some bizarre miss matched compressor/turbine. Its more of a popping noise when you are on the accelerator. People seem to have confused the two because "I guess the flutter is a surging kind of sound". Chinese turbos will fail regardless.
  15. Its an emissions thing.
  16. *sniff sniff* I smell bullshit.
  17. parrot: Committing 56k genocide since 2009.
  18. Yea black is evil badcrap. You literally wash it, chamois it, drive out the driveway and it will be dirty again. Its also fantastic for showing up every single flaw in your panel work.
  19. Its STILL a phenomenally bad not to mention ILLEGAL idea. Seriously, drop the idea now before you kill yourself or someone else. I found a video of what it will look like too. Granted this caravan was purposely weighted incorrectly but it illustrates perfectly what will happen to you even with a correctly weighted trailer and such a massive load for a light car. Youtube Video ->
  20. Unfortunately with the government bubble wrapping everything it provides few methods of removing them from the gene pool.
  21. If only :dance:
  22. Are you just gonna leave us hanging like that?!
  23. Until the cars on Overhaul'n one day and they're stripping the car down and "what the crap?!"
  24. Redwarfs on the money. With such a heavy trailer behind such a light weight, under braked car the trailer will be very quickly dictating the direction of travel. Very very incredibly hugely massively bad idea!
  25. They're called "Approved persons" in QLD: http://www.transport.qld.gov.au/Home/Regis...ctice/#approved
