Hey all,

As some of you know I missed last weekends Winton round due to an expected arrival, and I wasn't disappointed despite it happening a day later!

At 7am Sunday morning my wife gave birth to a healthy baby girl weighing in at 7lb 5oz and 52cm long. Both bubs and mum are doing well and are expected to leave hospital this Thurs. As you can imagine both my wife and I are wrapped, and even more so we now have a pidgeon pair which is more than we could've hoped for. We named her Courtney Leah.

It was a bit of a rush to get to hospital as my wife was having major contractions on the way and we arrived with only 20-30mins to spare....as a result I am almost 100% sure that I have made a donation to the state coffers :) but if I had to do it again I would given the circumstances! Anyway the doc is writing a letter on my behalf so I will see how I go.

-Ant.

Thanks guys and I will pass on your wishes to Nat.

All the best for the impending birth Snowie....being so close I didn't think you would make it to WA :whistling:

Lol James...we've pretty much decided that this is our quota so a procedure is imminent,after that I won't have to worry about keeping it in my pants....and depending who is going under the knife I may not have that urge to hump visitors legs anymore :)

Hehehe Scott....thats what cousins are for and the plus side is you don't have to clothe and feed them >_<

Cheers Paul....be sure to point Lauren in the direction of the thread so she can see the new arrival.

aww so cute!!

Zach looks like a very happy big brother >_<

My best wishes to you & your family.

So it looks like you won't be getting any more than about 4 hrs sleep for a while :)

Don't do anything drastic, I bet you'll change your mind in a few years when they're a bit older and annoy you constantly, and you wish they were cute, quiet little babies again. :whistling:

Lol....thanks guys.

congrats mate. time to get those pit crew jackets mits and boots made up.

Hahaha are you offering to knit them :(

so did you take the GTR to the hospital... haha 7,000rpm clutch dump into the hospital car park to handbrake turn in the ambulance driveway was totally necessary officer lol

While I did consider that for a sec the fact that leather is easier to clean than cloth (in regard to the passenger seat) and Nat would've had to wait until I had warmed her up didn't go in the R's favour :)

Only i think Brisberella would have been a beautiful name for a little girl.

Now thats a name....where were you when Nat and I were trying to decide on names?

    • Finally had these painted and fitted and pleased with the result. also managed to source 400R fender badges.    
    • who can tell me what this is and why my car talks to me? i think it's hilarious. it's on my r34 right above the drivers-side storage compartment. the characters under the wrench say "inspection". every 10 or 20 startups, a voice starts talking in japanese from some speaker in this area below the dashboard. it says a few sentences then shuts off. different from the ETC card reader voice that happens every time i start the car. I've never found the speaker, i've never been able to catch the voice and translate what it says, and i've never found a forum thread that tells me how to reset the warnings. the holes in between the symbols are NOT buttons you can press to reset the warnings. anyone else have this? has the demon lord from Hereditary infected my car?!
    • Would you ever vent this bonnet or will it be unnecessary?
    • Happy new years folks! Wishing you all a successful year of money pit ownership!  So the subframe bushes are out....   Ok, who else has done that job before??  What a C U Next Tuesday of a job that is!  Be glad to not do that again in a hurry! I think I explored every option available to chop the middle section of the bushes out, most of them unsuccessfully! I tried a holesaw, die grinder, normal drill bit, air chisel, etc, etc. The true success happened by accident when I'd decided to try a step drill I spotted on the bench on the way passed.  See, there are benefits to never cleaning up after yourself! It RIPPED through so so much better than the drill bit. It has to be the skinniest one available so its small enough to fit between the inner tube and outer casing but it made easy work of it.  First one i hammered the shit out of... New method- 20250102_185506.mp4   I did the other 5 in less time than I fluffed around with the first one. With the first couple I used the cut off saw (sawsall as the yanks love to call them) to cut a break in the outer casings. Even with that they're still a prick to hammer or air chisel out.  The last few i just went rambo with the air chisel without cutting them. I over cut one of the early ones so will hit the with the mig to fill the cut then sand it off smooth.  The carnage left over-   I've also been "nesting" ie, cleaning up my babies nursery,  ie cleaning the f**king pig sty of a shed. I've got that much shit laying around it's as cluttered as my head!  Getting things put away, in boxes, on shelves, hanging off walls, all to get some working space back again.  Hopefully that keeps me motivated....
    • AFAIK does the base map for Haltech even have the 4D compensation enabled? It's been a while but when I looked at it I remember it was actually using pure TPS as one load signal and MAP for another. Seemed workable but not ideal by any stretch. A lot of people have "make the event-itis" which leads to stuff like this happening.
