you can pull the codes easily with the subaru obd1 system, two connectors you connect and turn the car one and the check engine light flashes the codes. Long flashes represent the first unit, then short flashes are the second unit. So two long flashes followed by three short flashes would be error code 23/maf sensor

You are supposed to tin the iron by melting a little solder on the iron when the iron is hot enough to melt, then use the soldering iron to melt the solder and have it flow on the contacts. You are not supposed to heat the wires to melt the solder.

Yeah, kinda just think of it as an 'adventure' into the escalator where the fairy's and smurfs live

>>16164544
That's the EXACT wrong way, faggot.

You heat the thing you're welding/soldering and apply the joining metal, you don't fucking pour solder all over the iron and try to get it on the wires later, that's a great way to make your iron a worthless heap of shit

Are the nissan 720 utes good?

>>16164566
I didn't mean melt it all over the iron, but use the heat of the iron and the iron should be very close to the point where the solder is being melted. Did you use Flux, and tin your iron?

>>16164586
Not really, same sort of thing as the cheapo Hilux utes that tradies beat to death, then kids buy them, drop them on their guts and grind them to death on speedhumps

>>16164566
But if you are tinning and using Flux it should flow.

you can't hit the lever when the car is on it, to retract it lifts the thingy a little so unless you can lift a car with a little lever you're fine
also SCA have recalls super often, i personally wouldn't go with them

Mostly adjustable height on the ratchet type ones which tend to be easier to set in, pin ones not so much as you need the holes to match up. Generally I go with the pin ones as they're hard to fuck up

Thanks guys.

I've got another question, what do I do with the old oil after I've changed it?

I've heard you can bring it back to the shop for them to get rid of, but do I need to bring it back in a particular kind of bottle or could I just fill up whatever I have sitting around?

Turns out my Dunnydoor was a-ok

Local shop did a mad job reinforcing the shock towers and handles even better now cheap too

>>16165497
Supercheap have bins outside their stores usually for used oil, the accept any bottle that is sealed and under 4 or 5 litres

>>16165497
any bottle is fine.
id also go with the pin type for safety.

>>16165509
This I throw mine in used milk bottles and have no trouble

i have to change oil soon in the ls

using 15-40 nulon semi and it isnt burning or leaking as bad

Noice

You on club vy vz or something?

baka im retarded. didnt mean to quote you at all ahaha.
I was trying to ask dat what they think of the rx8, i kow the renesis engine gets lots of shit but its NA and makes 170-180kw depending on what trim, NA rx7s didnt make near that and even the turbo fc was only like 150kw

Idk, in my books that's still slow and drinks fuel like a v8.
You on Ps? If so I guess it's decent if you don't mind the fuel.

Are you only looking at Jap cars? if not, a v8 would be the way to go for NA power. Look at the LS engines as they are cheap and plentiful.

Has to be manual if you're looking at an RX-8. Hard to make them quicker and they drink like an Irishman.

It's not bad for what it'll do, certainly cheaper than 90s/late 00s Jap crap. But forever lives in the shadow of the FD RX-7.

>>16165674
yeah Ps but i get fulls next year so just research.

I heard fuel economy on the 13b renesis is greater than the earlier one in rx7. that being said some of the stats im reading for fuel consumption are atrocious.

I'm wanting something relatively light, powerful, good handling. I'm open to anything not just jap cars, but I've driven a euro car the entirety of my Ps so I'm after a change so im orienting towards something jap.

probably not a v8 given they are heavy, i really want to get something between 1,000kg and 1,400.

>>16168114
the LS itself isn't heavy, just the cars they are in.

Eitherway, rotaries have horrible fuel consumption but I could live with the rx7 just because I've always wanted one.
Jap cars would handle the best so your options are pretty big, just depends what you want in it.
A silvias are great at handling and can be made to go fast but if you've got your heart set on an rx8, get one.

>>16166885
Better to do a single pegger than no skid at all.

>>16168190
yeah an rx7 fc or fd would be ideal but they can be pricey. rx8 is too much of a compromise.
I really like the 180SX, R32GTST, old MR2 even WRX STI or EVO.
I'm searching for something with a rough exterior that I could fix up myself as long as it's mechanically sound.

437KB, 1280x848px

>>16168310
yeh but remember, if it has a rough exterior, imagine how the interior and car itself has been treated.
Usually a clean exterior and interior is a good indication that the car has been looked after.

So unless you plan to fix up the whole car, just find a clean one even if you have to spend the extra few thousand as it will be cheaper in the long run.

Any of those cars are awesome though so it's all just down to personal preference I guess.

>>16165514
Used the 15-40 nulon premium mineral because they didn't have any penrite, has the same effect on my falcon

>>16168363
true that.

there is this clean blue mr2 like the one from inital d that i drive past everyday. i know popup headlights are quite memey but a 180 or mr2 would be sweet.

yeah im just speculating at the moment, trying to get a clue for my options.

Orange car is already travelling on the 'middle' of the road because Green car is parked.

Red car suddenly brakes and Pink car swerves to avoid Red, hitting Orange in the process.

Pink, obviously didn't give themselves enough distance to brake when Red did.

because they hand licenses out like candy to people who can follow rules, but fail people who critically think.

literally passing your test just requires you to follow the rules, but you can fail if someone else hits you, or if you dodge them.

i'm not even fucking kidding. a few years back when i got my license, i had a cunt in a ute come flying out at almost 150, in my lane, wrong side of the road.

i dodged him and failed because i "Failed to check my mirrors".

i shit you not, i did a headcheck to see the next lane was clear and swung in right before this cooked cunt smashed into us and got failed for not going through the process of checking all my mirrors.

Lads, I've just realized we're the only ones that can defeat BLM, and why they'll never be a problem here like in the UK or the States.

the chinese believe that your life is over once you're injured, even if you might survive with treatment, because treatment would be a waste of money, namely the money of the person that injured you

and even if you don't need treatment - because better to kill you when it can be explained as an accident than take the chance

Anyone have a FG Falcon xr6?

How are they? Reliability is the main concern.

>he thinks 4.5k is good

we all know you were doing 10 under the limit you piece of trash

I need a multimeter for working out some electrical issues around my bike. Beyond the usual volt, amp, resistance and diode modes is there anything that will be a benefit around cars or just get the cheapest I can that works

>>16180942
Get an auto ranging multimeter

>>16180968
>auto ranging
Legend. Overlooked that feature. Should save me many a headache.

>>16180942
Worth hunting around with one that has an IR thermometer as well, handy for picking up hot spots in both wiring and the engine itself

>>16180934
That tiny bwooooor when you just rev it up to 1500rpm when rolling is the best

>>16180942
Get a FLUKE

Unless you know the ranges of voltage and amps you're working with then just get an auto ranging one and let it do it for you
