So I understand that laser jammers are illegal in NZ. However, if I had one, I would state that it actually goes around the license plate ( i.e Blinder M45 ), as this is where cops aim it for the best reflection, and it prevents this laser from having a direct line back ( induces noise, which is weird for light, but still . . ). It can be tested by using a camera phone and a normal infrared remote control when in test mode. Supposedly.

You're the new guy right ? Full credit to you for turning up and giving it all a go if you are.

Good pics ! And yep, it is me !

you didnt take me for a ride in the end Ah man, sorry. I think I only did one run near the start of the day without anyone in the car. I just enjoy whoring out the seat.

Oh sweet did ya ! I'd like to see Viv spanking me on camera.

OK cool, I was just worried it may do some even more severe uneven wear thing. But cheers Tony !!

Hi All, So I just got my car back from having the alignment done, and a note on the side says L/F Camber Maxed Out. And its figures are : Left -2 degrees 55' Right -3 degrees 02' Is that going to be bad ?? Why would my camber be maxed out anyway ?

I had exactly the same setup, VF22, LinkG4, did 224kw off the top of my head. Decapped the injectors and upgraded the fuel system, and retuned to 238kwatw. So, yeah, that's the most I could get out of the 22.

Oh wait, have you found the trademe ads yet ?

Oh ?!? I see two. That one above and the one under the sellers name.

I was thinking the other persons phone number listed there

I assume you've tried contacting him on the other cellphone number they have ?

I would have no idea how epic it is, would say quite epic ? But I don't think I'd be comfortable sand papering my car ! And, wouldn't I need to remove the rust first ?

Oh sweet, rust convertor, is that like a little brush on thingie ? I'll get the proper touch up paint, it's just I'm worried about the rust starting to eat away at it.

You're just a fountain of information ;D

So I was cleaning my car yesterday, and I noticed that I had some stone chips, that appear to have gone rusty ! Anyone have any ideas what to do about this, except for a bonnet respray. I found about 6 little marks like this.

Edison ( disclaimer - my friends kid was just called this last week )

Very interesting ! Yeah, for sure, try that, ping those two IP's and let us know the results. If they fail straight away, right click on those icons you mentioned on the system tray, select repair, and see if it then goes back to normal.

You can make it disconnect ?? How ? But yep, ping both 10.1.1.1 and 58.84.224.0 when it happens.

Cool, ok, how about to the other address, 10.1.1.4 ? Which, to be honest sounds like your IP, not the gateway, which is more likely to be 10.1.1.1 Can you double check your ipconfig, that you're pinging the gateway, not your IP ?

Perfect ! That helps a lot. OK, next time you have a problem, do those same two IP's and let us know the result. From that we'll check the next layer.

Yep ! Which IP were you pinging ? Say for example, what happens if you put in another number, ummm, 58.84.224.0

Yep, his ipconfig should tell him which one to use.

Hmmm. OK, follow this http://www.wikihow.com/Ping-an-IP-Address But first you need to find the IP of your router. So, in the instructions, after step 1, before step 2 ( where you type ping ), type "ipconfig" with no apostrophes. Write down the number after Default Gateway. It'll be 192.168. something . something. That's the number you ping. So for me : C:\Documents and Settings\Chris>ipconfig Windows IP Configuration Ethernet adapter Local Area Connection 2: Media State . . . . . . . . . . . : Media disconnected Ethernet adapter Wireless Network Connection: Connection-specific DNS Suffix . : IP Address. . . . . . . . . . . . : 192.168.1.100 Subnet Mask . . . . . . . . . . . : 255.255.255.0 Default Gateway . . . . . . . . . : 192.168.1.1 I write down 192.168.1.1 Then I do this : C:\Documents and Settings\Chris>ping 192.168.1.1 Pinging 192.168.1.1 with 32 bytes of data: Reply from 192.168.1.1: bytes=32 time=1ms TTL=64 Reply from 192.168.1.1: bytes=32 time=1ms TTL=64 Reply from 192.168.1.1: bytes=32 time=1ms TTL=64 Reply from 192.168.1.1: bytes=32 time=1ms TTL=64 Ping statistics for 192.168.1.1: Packets: Sent = 4, Received = 4, Lost = 0 (0% loss), Approximate round trip times in milli-seconds: Minimum = 1ms, Maximum = 1ms, Average = 1ms C:\Documents and Settings\Chris> And from that it's the first step in figuring out your problem. Try it now with your working connection. The part : Ping statistics for 192.168.1.1: Packets: Sent = 4, Received = 4, Lost = 0 (0% loss), Approximate round trip times in milli-seconds: Minimum = 1ms, Maximum = 1ms, Average = 1ms Helps in eliminating your physical layer of connection as a problem.

Yep. First step is you need to ping your router at times when it's running slow. Based on those results it can be diagnosed further . .
