Matt's is an RX, but are you sure it's stock?
I thought it had a fairly extensive massage by Al and Miles?

Oh....I missed that completely didn't I..

If I told you I was a compulsive liar, would you believe me?

Jase, I don't normally question your technical knowledge, but how could a little bit of overspray embed itself in the pads for life and not just burn off/scratch off instantly which I think it did.
Done it before this way a couple of times and haven't had any dramas. :)

yo man do not go work in a pub. shit pay, worst hours (when every1 is partying).. Do your self a favour and apply at clubs.. slightly higher base and you should get overtime, penalty rates, unless some random pub your lucky enough to find has all that stuff, mine doesnt. still got paid the normal amount on Christmas day night or eve or whichever one it was....plus 15 bucks tips for 11 and a half hours work.. fork off.


I can get a job at the pub my brother works at.
Good Pay.
Its actually a Bowling club/bar

Yew, bush mechanics ftw! Fixed the fuel pump, turned out to be a burned out plug in the assembly. Found another pin somewhere, chopped it off and rewired it into the fuel pump harness hahahaha.

Nice work!!


DIY feels good. I wish I could do this with every single part of a car so I can learn.

PS. Power windows are Posted Image'ed now. None work. All the fuses are fine.

Any suggestions?

Nah, you're probably right. :)

Just seemed a little too ghetto spec to me.

Aight, so figured out power window issue was my Posted Image'ed alternator.

Get the car going after fuel problem.. start driving to visit mum at hospital.. handbrake light is on? battery light is on?
Pull up at hospital, ABS light turns on, oil temp turns on, check engine turns on..
Car dies right as I pull up. Check voltage on battery.. <8v. Manage to get car started via jump start.. watch voltage slowly drop again.

Alternator is le Posted Image'ed.

Take my dads car which is parked at hospo to 24/7 KMART. Buy el cheapo kmart battery.. go back to hospital, put new battery in.. hope it retains charge.

No headunit, interior lights, bla bla bla.. Manage to get home [just], battery + handbrake light on again.. Take multi-meter out.. voltage got down to 8v.. the car was barely running.


So, does anyone have a left over alternator from a conversion.. or something spare.. or somewhere to buy one from that would be open tomorrow? (In Sydney).

Cheers.

EDIT: May have tracked one down from friendly B0$$ man Shazza from his old EJ25 heritage.

Sorry Jase :(

Next time I am down with some free time I will have to shout you a beer or two... Assuming you would want to LOL.

Love the architecture of the Melbourne CBD, really is nice.

Today I did the king Tut exhibit, followed by a massage, followed by the motorclassica show which was epic, ended up having to fork out $70 for a new battery for my camera because I left mine in the charger back at the room, sweet talked the nice young lady into charging it for me :)
Dinner on Lygon street last... Ate some Italians.... Lol

Pirates of the Caribbean (the new one) sucks farking ass. Penelope Cruz is the ONLY good thing about it.

In other news, had this for dinner. Was.Freakin.Epic. Had to be some of the best steak I ever did eat. Came out a perfect medium rare and juicy as all hell. Delicious.
