doh comment :)

i always thought it was amusing that alcohol and cigarettes accounted for a substantially larger ratio of deaths than every other drug in existance COMBINED

it could however be argued a crap load more people drink booze and smoke cigy's therefore you would expect more deaths in relation to it. but i have a dislike for illegal drugs so call me biast :)

and i stay the f away from coffee :P i know ppl that went into shakes on a regular basis when they tried giving it up. i have however fell victim to lunch time coke hits. its O K there's no sugar. o that was coke zero btw :P

and i see more talk of the kat tat chick bone or no bone. we had that discussion, it was established half of sau want aids :D

um you realise coffee is in coke can you say denial

spot on luke hahaha i am a fan of Ms von D so leave me alone

Some say that the artificial sweetners will cause cancer faster than cigarettes will......!

And mobile phones give you head tumors and everyone must take fish oil everyday.... etc etc. We are all gonna die at some stage, if we all lived the perfect lives we would eat 2 fruit and 5 veg every day, be on more multivitamins than you can swallow at once and avoid all luxuries in life because they increase your chance of testicular malfunction or your skeleton jumping out of your skin. f**k it, live life!

Err.... I think you might have taken my post a tad too serious......

Lol not having a go at you Talbs, more a go at the reports on the news of everyday objects increasing your risk of death. Off on a tangent :)

LOL! I know..... I don't like any of those diet/artificial sweetner drinks myself and I don't think there is anything conclusive to say it causes cancer other than in lab rats :P

You're more likely to walk across the road and get cleaned up by a hoon driving a skyline..... :)

Speaking of cleaned up, I nearly hit some f**khead on a bike today. Was driving my brothers vitara and was in a slip lane to do a right hand turn into a sidestreet. Was on northeast road and the traffic was backed up and the two lanes of cars had stopped to allow room for the turn across the traffic. Anyhow, I'm turning in and this the sphincter of the universe flies past at around 50-60 and screams obscenities at me while I tap the brakes just enough to miss him, as he flies past. You'd think that cyclists exercise a little bit more caution, considering the bike lane is completely blind when the traffic is banked up (and the fact that the traffic was banked up for a good couple KM and the sensible drivers had left room for people to turn...

Is it just me, or are all cyclists total wankers?

Certainly can be.... I'm all for sharing the road, but when these morons ride 2+ abreast and block lanes they're just asking for abuse or even worse..... Funnily enough I too almost cleaned up a cyclist this morning go across the Salisbury Hwy intersection from Commercial Rd.... flamin mongrel was riding pretty much in the middle of the road where 2 lanes merge..... wtf :)

Transport SA pretty much vindicates both of us in this scenario :

Bicycles are classified as vehicles and therefore bicycle riders have the same responsibilities and must obey the same rules as motor vehicle drivers. Remember:You can be charged with a traffic offence in the same way as a motor vehicle driver. This includes incurring demerit points against your Driver's Licence if you hold one. You incur demerit points even if you don’t hold a Driver’s Licence (which can prohibit you from obtaining one). Although the law gives you the same rights and responsibilities as other road users, all road users may not be aware of this. You are more easily injured than motor vehicle occupants are and it is therefore safer for you to be highly visible and look out for other road users when riding. The law does not give anyone indisputable right of way. Do not assume that another road user is going to give way Some people will judge all bicycle riders by your actions. If you disregard the road rules, you can undermine the goodwill of other road users.

    • Updating results following our SR20det project. Data collected form improves future turbocharger making and high flowing services. So far differences between G and GT series turbine wheels, we are in the process of making a new turbine, the aim is for better mid top range flow without gain too much lag.  Result is back to back comparison of G25-660 and GTX2867 spec turbochargers on the same car, nothing changed apart from turbocharger. Both tuned to knock limit from pump 98 fuel (US Ron93). GTX2867 was about 400RPM more responsive making 255rwkws while G25-660 made 17 extra Kws with wider spread of torque after 4500RPM finishing off at 272rwkws.  
    • @GTSBoy i tried to jumper the wires and got the steering wheel light to come on which is right under the gear indication but that still doesnt come on.  Can it be an issue with my cluster?
    • Given that you have seen the dash indicator work briefly, then it would seem like you have a simple wiring problem. What happens when you simply jumper the wires on the "steering wheel switch"?
    • Yesterday's day in review: All the wiring to the lights up the front how I want it, is ran, terminated, and all to length. The only lighting up front I haven't finished is the side indicators, as I need to get to the partly cutup factory loom, and find the plugs for them. Interesting note, the side indicators use the exact same plug that's in the doors for something else that I don't remember what it is... So that plug better be careful...   Power steering solenoid, on the R33 is variable, and from memory PWM. The Ford's control from the docs I have so far, is it's just a on or off control. So I'm not sure it's what I want, and in any case, power steering running, but at its heaviest (solenoid off) is likely what I'll want anyway, so I'm not yet touching it at all. All the wiring I can complete so far, is done. There are 3 wires I need to make a plug for at the ECU, and these are just for the vehicle speed sensor, of which I need to get a T5 from an AU, so I can use its output that has the speed sensor on it. (My car doesn't have ABS, otherwise I'd set it up to use one of the ring gears on that). I need to buy new headlight globes and front parker globes, otherwise I could show photos of lights working. Current fuel lines in and out on this motor are "5/16". I'll order hardline, and some AN fittings for that, and I just need to 100% check fuel line size at the tank end, to get the ends for it. I'm also looking at a few options for the banjo bolts to AN fittings for the power steering rack. I'll pull the reservoir off the Barras PS pump. There's an off the shelf fitting for that pump for a -10 AN feed, and it'll use a 16mm to dash -6 an outlet to feed the rack. I'll be making my own power steering reservoir, I'm going through the thought process at the moment of how I'll run the baffles, and I need to research another idea for it too.
    • Two inlet runners changes the engines characteristics requiring less fuel to make torque at different points in the rev range. The smaller diameter inlet runners on the DET increases air flow speed, which improves atomisation of fuel, particularly in low load/idle for better burn, and in specific areas of the engine, (areas you would use when driving normally) increases the efficiency. All of those items change how efficient the engine is at different speeds. The changes on the neo help slightly to improve emissions where it matters. The overall improvements won't be the likes of going from an engine built in the 70s to an engine built in the 2000s, it's just a small step. But still leaves it the RB with the best chance of improvement.   As for your comment about the whole using a cat to not need to worry about those gases. Two things, no system is 100% perfect. It won't eliminate everything. So reduce the quantity you put into it, you still reduce the output. Two, make that system do less work, and it's likely to survive a little bit longer. Funnily enough to, one trick employed to get cats up to temp, AND to drastically reduce emissions before they get up to temp, is to reduce ignition timing.
