lol

Was going to install fuel pump today...couldn't get motivated to do it. I instead started drinking Jolt Amercian Root beer, i never knew is was sarsaparilla, also the Black Cherry is nice too, now i am buzzing :D . May go for a drive and look at Grand Auto Wreckers, or go get some Meguiar's car detailing gear, or go and see if i can find a repco that sells metalcat cats, or just ramble on :) .

if you end up going down to grand auto...youll see the rims im considering getting...black with polished lip

52 things you would love to say out loud at work

1. I can see your point, but I still think you're full of sh*t.

2. I don't know what your problem is, but I'll bet it's hard to pronounce.

3. How about never? Is never good for you?

4. I see you've set aside this special time to humiliate yourself in public.

5. I'm really easy to get along with once you people learn to see it my way.

6. Who lit the fuse on your tampon?

7. I'm out of my mind, but feel free to leave a message.

8. I don't work here. I'm a consultant.

9. It sounds like English, but I can't understand a word you're saying.

10. Ahhhh. I see the f ***-up fairy has visited us again.

11. I like you. You remind me of myself when I was young and stupid.

12. You are validating my inherent mistrust of strangers.

13. I have plenty of talent and vision; I just don't give a sh*t.

14. I'm already visualizing the duct tape over your mouth.

15. I will always cherish the initial misconceptions I had about you.

16. Thank you. We're all refreshed and challenged by your unique point of view.

17. The fact that no one understands you doesn't mean you're an artist.

18. Any resemblance between your reality and mine are purely coincidental.

19. What am I? Flypaper for freaks?!

20. I'm not being rude. You're just insignificant.

21. It's a thankless job, but I've got a lot of Karma to burn off.

22. Yes, I am an agent of Satan, but my duties are largely ceremonial.

23. And your cry-baby whiny-arsed opinion would be?

24. Do I look like a f****** people person to you?

25. This isn't an office. It's Hell with fluorescent lighting.

26. I started out with nothing and I still have most of it left.

27. Sarcasm is just one more service we offer.

28. If I throw a stick, will you leave?

29. Errors have been made. Others will be blamed.

30. Whatever kind of look you were aiming for, you missed.

31. Oh I get it. Like humour, but different.........

32. An office is just a mental institute without the padded walls.

33. Can I swap this job for what's behind door .........1?

34. Too many freaks, not enough circuses.

35. Nice perfume (or aftershave). Must you marinate in it?

36. Chaos, panic, and disorder. My work here is done.

37. How do I set a laser printer to stun?

38. I thought I wanted a career; it turns out I just needed the money.

39. I'll try being nicer if you'll try being more intelligent.

40. Wait a minute - I'm trying to imagine you with a personality.

41. Aren't you a black hole of need.

42. I'd like to help you out, which way did you come in?

43. Did you eat an extra bowl of stupid this morning?

44. Why don't you slip into something more comfortable? Like a coma.

45. If you have something to say raise your hand.........then place it over your mouth.

46. I'm too busy, can I ignore you some other time?

47. Don't let your mind wander, its too small to be let out on its own.

48. Have a nice day, somewhere else.

49. You're not yourself today, I noticed the improvement straight away.

50. You are as pretty as a picture, I'd really like to hang you.

51. Don't believe everything you think.

52. Do you hear that? That's the sound of no-one caring.

rofl...number 10 is my favourite

Just got a reply from Isobel Redmonds office regarding the motorsport park email:

Dear Damien Hill,

Thank you for your email regarding the A Current Affair segment covering road safety and in particular 'hoon driving'.

This is an area in which Isobel Redmond MP has had considerable involvement having served as the local government representative on the State’s Road Safety Advisory Council for some 10 years.

The recent spike in our road toll is of concern to everyone, particularly when we see the tragic loss of young lives as a consequence of momentary inattention or a foolish lapse of judgement.

Whilst 'hoon driving' legislation enables SAPOL to clamp or seize vehicles, that obviously cannot provide the whole answer: better driver education, skills courses, a new multi-motorsport facility and further restrictions on inexperienced drivers have all been proposed.

The Liberal Opposition is considering all options.

Yours faithfully

The Heysen Electorate Office Team

f**k i hate "RBT's".

every friday and saturday night i work, i never see an rbt to or from work. every other night of the week, i come across at least one.

tonight i avoided 4 of the f**king things.

how f**king pointless is that shit? yeah, slashdance is on tonight, but seriously, wouldnt those resources be better used when people are more likely to drink and drive, like on a friday or saturday night?

i can even find myself a agreeing with rbt's on peripheral days like thursday and sunday, because theyre getting busier in town recently, but monday - wednesday? having a couple pc's out and about pulling randoms over makes more sense than dumb-testing rbt's everywhere.

and just quietly, 3 out of 4 of these rbt's had some poor bastards in imports sitting on the side of the roads with the bonnets up while the cops just waved everyone through.

breath testing my shiny daffodil ass...

No surprises there, atleast you weren't one of them. Don't worry man, SAPOL is doing their part in keeping hoons off the road

Good thing about being a tradesman, I've said more than 1/2 of those in my workplace at one stage or another :rolleyes:

I'd prefer a cooler that has the plumbing come from the same side and doesn't require any hole sawing (removal of washer bottle). I'll continue looking into it, there's quite a bit on these forums :rolleyes:

I'll still emphasise my original point. If you get something custom done you can have it wherever you like, and it probably wont cost you epic amounts like some of these cooler kits do. You can buy many different cooler core designs / sizes these days

I'll be doing the same ... but I'm sick of the recorders that shut off when mounted to a bike. Going to get myself a helmet cam :rolleyes:

If anyone is just after a thrash cam, this one is pretty cheap and for the price wont matter if it smashes on anything.

video qual here:

(youtube downscaled from 1080i, little jagged)

Still in search of a camera with good night time quality, even my mates ~$1200 sony hd cam comes out bad at night.

Funnily enough, working at Holdens it gets worse than those! :D

And on the same lines, Holdens is releasing its direct injection motor in the next month, 190kw 3.0ltr and 210kw 3.6ltr. Big woop i think :down:

But they are also pushing for an E85 refinery to be set up to compliment their new ECO-LINE motors. So the old General is good for something else other than funding the Skyline :rolleyes:

And picked up my DBA 4000 series rotors today for the front, only $10 difference to RDA!

If you guys think modding a car is expensive, try modding a 250cc race bike:

TYGA expansion chambers and SS cans (full GP race exhaust system) - $530 GBP from UK

Cougar Red racing 3 piece power valves (set of 4) - $395 GBP from UK

Cougar Red race cylinder heads (set of 2) - $395 GBP (both) from UK

Spares:

Cylinder heads (coated) - $287.10 GBP each (x2) from UK

Thats $1,894.20 GBP = $3,759.88 AUD :rolleyes:

Thats not including delivery from the UK, or the dyno time to tune it all in.

What have I gotten myself into? :D Thank God the bike's already had a complete engine rebuild, gearing kit and brake upgrade! Plus enough spares to crash the bike 2 times over :down:

Problem is we'd be realistically rebuilding the engine every 6 months, so that about $1,500 each year.

Just went for a boot up the highway

dodgy 444 injectors were replaced with 555's on tues...

broken boss kit removed today and stock skyline steering wheel fitted.

no diagnostic mode with bosskit. removal of bosskit and fitting of stocker.

diagnostic mode ran, rear wheels having a spazzo moment

5 error codes retrieved instantly from hicas controller. codes reset.

30 km drive. no errors.

rtb. everything put back together.

i then take it on the highway and it starts handling stupendously good. i crack wood

chuck a hicas u turn using the dual roundabouts on the crafers overpass... no more sqealing from incorrect rear toe in

summary:

the dickhead who owned my car in japan decided that the nardi wheel 'look foory sik' and decided to put a pov spec boss controller that doesnt support hicas on. he gets sick of the hicas LED coming on the dash, so like any genius would, he just removes the bulb..

comes to me and i replace the globes in my dask with led's 18 mths ago and I start to twig that the red light that just started appearing has something to do with the fact the the car tramlines over 80kph but only within the first 25 minutes of driving (before the light comes on)

why has it taken me so long? Because every dickhead says 'just get a lock bar, duh'.

but i like hicas. its quite useful if you're not a psycho kamikazee dori head

that and i thought the solution lied in getting a conzult program that would pull hicas codes. sad to say the only software that can pull hicas codes from an r32 is actually made for a 300zx and costs $500 for the software alone.

i even tried using a hex-terminal to send the init codes to the hicas controller manually

i could get an OK from the init string but never figured out how to make sense of the gibberish that came out when i switched the channel to 'all sensors streaming'

so. a $50 steering wheel has simply proven that i have a dodgy arse boss kit.

f**k.

thats all i have to say about that.

-D
