    forgetfulness at old age is not cool. only way to get around it. leave post it notes everywhere. So the car has been in for a service recently at Monsta torque. 112500km service complete. Notes on invoice. Need new tires..... :( and need new windscreen wipers. I was expecting more, but I am glad that was all. Went for RE003 again and Bridgestone had their special on again. I got in on the last day. I ordered 4 tires for the price of 3. I just can't go wrong. Thanks to Marcel at Bridgstone in Malaga!! He is a legend for giving me a good price.

    Good purchase man, good purchase. footprint on table is small. footprint on power bill is smaller than your previous server. You will run out of space fast. I went from 2 to 4 and now 8 slot NAS. QNAP TS-853a is what I got now with 24TB. Wait till you get into digital photography and buy a high end DSLR and DRONE!!! That is when the fun begins. @Rab just got his drone. When he starts to realize those 4k records take up space..... well......

    Thanks mate. I did check supercheap site and did enter 630CCA batteries and they only show the century stuff. Staying away from them from now on. Too late to change now. I checked the Exide site and their store locator is I <3 Bananased. When I clicked on contact us, it showed some addresses. I will find a store locally. Thanks again for the information.

    Fark you are in a fowl mood. hahahaha. sorry to hear that.
  9. masda74
    Cool. Thanks for that. I take it you don't get them from supercheap then?
  10. masda74
    Wish I had known this before. I thought they were a good battery cause of the 620CCA and how it turns the falcon over pretty well. Did try a supercheap battery when first replacing the original battery and had to take it back cause it was 420CCA and would not crank over the next morning for some reason. I would go the optima, but securing it would be my biggest concern. would I be able to do it???? @JETURBO what battery do you recommend to use then?

    @k31th, where are dem instructions again?

    Sorry I am late to the show. Camo, spot on mate. It is the spring that has snapped. Happened to mine. Not an easy job if you don't have the tools. It is a valve spring that is in my car right now. However you will need a die grinder to flatten an edge up a bit and grind the internal part of it to allow it to fit in said place. The alternative is to pay $280 for the pedal set which includes the spring. Good luck @Duane343

    at least now I got more links. Thanks for that.

    So I replaced the battery early/mid march. all been working fine since. I thought my trips were to short to work as they are only 20-30 mins depending on traffic. I even topped up the distilled water and left the car on a trickle charger over the weekend. Monday had no issues starting. Tuesday no issues starting until I went to pickup my kids at school. I was left stranded with the car not wanting to crank over at all. Damn embarrassing especially with a Ford. Had to let the car roll back down the hill backwards and then kick start it in reverse. Clutch did not like me at all, but she phucken started. I was fuming and Drove off quietly. I was so tempted to do one huge burnout to try and charge it in 30 seconds. I went and bought a new battery that arvo. No it is not because it is a ford, it is because it is a Century battery. Price for these damn things have gone up over the years. I remember buy the first one at $169 and thought it was a bargain. Now they are at $235 clams.

    Try this site https://www.guru3d.com/articles-pages/combo-deal-office-2016-pro-and-w10-for-34,1.html I been reading their reviews for years. I trust them. They link to product keys on another site though. They are legit keys. Have bought a few.

    I have the 4k plan as well. I don't specifically watch 4k series or movies all the time. If the movie I want to watch is not 4k, so be it. I can't work out how to get 4k only content showing in the netflix app on the TV. When you watch something that is 4k, you know it right away. The upgrade of the plan to 4k was good for the tv, but the fact that all 4 of us can be on netflix at home at the same time, has made our lives easier too.

    I was going to say, my brother is part of the overclockers Australia community and has been there for a while. admin on their discord channel. He said it makes no difference. I will say that changing the airflow direction should make a difference. I am going to change the back fan to suck air out instead of sucking fresh in air. I will then change the TOP Radiator fan direction from blowing air out of the case, to blowing it into the case. I think that might be where things will change. I set it up this way under the advise of my brother. I just suspect that is why the cpu is getting so hot.
  18. masda74
    So what would you do different? I still got to get LED strips to light it up on the inside. Gotta change the direction of the fans on the top radiator see if that helps reduce heat from CPU.
  19. masda74
    Well here is a run down for you then. Card taken apart. the crappy TIM supplied from factory was starting to gel up already. GPU all Clean Water block on, no screws. Looking for clearance on all sides especially with the Fan connectors Clear coolant in there. Die has been added.
  20. masda74
    I don't think it will be the brake pads, but I could be wrong. I am more inclined to say that the switch where the brake pedal is might need looking at.
  21. masda74
    Finally got my water cooling setup, up and running. had issues with GPU water block. GPU ran at max 37 degrees and CPU at 56 degrees while playing APEX LEGENDS CPU block is before the GPU, so the fact that the GPU was 37 degrees surprised me.
  22. masda74
    ^ did you get the issue resolved? The other thing that comes to mind, do you have anything plugged into the OBD port by any chance?
  23. masda74
    I get 10 days off at COB.
  24. masda74
    I have checked the webpage and the forum. @rollex is data logging up and running?
  25. masda74
    hahahaha, I'll offer 7.5k for it. In all seriousness, E85 will use more juice. You may want to check the xcal as there might be a 98 tune? If you have a 98 tune, chuck that in and see how you go with fuel economy. Oh and that lead foot does not help either. I have a manual FG running on 98 and I get about 450km to 500km per tank, depending on my lead foot. If you have a car like that, why you worried about economy. If you are so worried about economy, put it in the garage and get a bike for daily duties.
