Going on my lunchbreak now to get the silver Stagea registered with SA plates at the city office. :D

Next month, the black Stagea comes off the road for some body work and respray. :cool: Still waiting for my front bar from Viva.

Ah f**k SAKE I just got a call saying it's been declined on Telstra's end. Apparently, Telstra haven't updated their database (probably a Excel Spreadsheet) to say that I'm off the pair gain system!

So, what do I do? I call up Telstra BUT WAIT... I get told "You need your mothers permission to talk to us. You aren't the account holder." So I went nuts at the guy, saying I'm 21, blah blah blah... but he refused to talk to me, yet a different guy only 2 days ago would talk to me!! Hmmm...

Anyway, got Mum to call them, and yep, yet another confirmation "You're off the pair gain system. You can get broadband!"

It's like they hold off releasing the information into the database for x amount of time, forcing you to sign up with Telstra! It's bullshit. But I'll just keep re-submitting my order with Internode.

Get this, $149.95 a MONTH for Telstra ADSL2+ with only 60gig allowance... What a rip.

Hahaha you'll have to get your mum to tell telstra your an authorised accounts person :D

in telstra's defence there hands are tied by the accc to not have better deals than there wholesale price dictates otherwise all the other isp's cry blue murder

i also reckon with node you'll find that allowance is made up of off peak data and peak

Hmmm...

Telstra are a funny bunch. Waaaay back in the day, Mum decided to move to another phone company. A few weeks after the move, Telstra actually sent a card in the shape of a giant bunch of flowers with the writing "We want you to come back" on it! And inside, all these phone offers!

We ended up moving back :D

I sound like a 12 year old when I say "And Mum said" and "And Mum and me went to the park"

Adam internet told me telstra will play tricks.

saying telstra have to come to your house to do something and if your not there it cost money. They didnt come.

telstra try their hardest to keep you onboard.

im using adam adsl+2. $60 a month. 10gig plus free voip phone etc

Just like I say to my little Daniel; "one day you'll realize that mums know everything!"

    • Did you get any down time over Christmas, or have you had any since to play with this? Or have you given up and are trying to get yourself a second hand V8SC instead?
    • A random thought I had just before I hit "Submit on this post". If brake fluid, in a container in my garage that has never been opened goes bad after 18 months, why can I leave it in my car for 24 months in an "unsealed container"... Secondly, some other digging, and brake fluid manufacturers seem to be saying 5 year shelf life... Me thinks there line on 18 months for an unsealed bottle is pretty much horse shit marketing spin. Kind of like how if you drive a car and don't run a turbo timer your turbo and motor will die horribly...   Where I started on this though... Someone (me) started down a bit of a rabbit hole, I don't quite have the proper equipment to do Equilibrium Reflux boiling per the proper test standards. I did a little digging on YouTube, and this was the first video I found on someone attempting to "just boil it". This video isn't overly scientific, as we don't have a known reference for his test either. Inaccuracy in his equipment could have him reaching the 460 to 470f boiling point range in reality. In the video, using a laser temp gun, he claims his Dot3 that's been open in his florida garage for over a year gets to about 420 to 430 fahrenheit (215 to 221c) Doing some googling, I located an MSDS for that specific oil, and from new, it claims a dry boiling point of 460 to 470f. Unfortunately they don't list a wet boiling point for us to see how far it degraded toward its "wet" point. While watching it I was thinking "I wonder what the flash point is..." turns out its only 480f for that specific brake fluid....   As for testing the oil's resistance, I might not be able to accurately do that unfortunately. Resistance level will be quite a LOT higher than my system can read I suspect based on some research. However, I might be able to do it by measuring the current when I apply a specific voltage. I won't have an actual water % value, but I'll have some values I can compare between the multitude of fluids. I'll run some vague calculations later and see if I should be able to read any reliable amount of current. These calcs will be based on some values I've found for other oils, and see how close I'll need my terminals together. From memory I can get down to 1pA accuracy on the DMM. I don't think my IOT Power Tester has any better resolution.    
    • No, with a twin plate clutch flywheels and clutch pressure plate/friction disks go together. Only clutch where that isn't the case is the Uniclutch but they currently don't make a pull version for the Getrag R34, just some other cars. Personally the flywheel is as light as I'd want it to be. It already drops revs faster than I want to shift normally and I blip the throttle again to rev match on upshifts.
    • Are there any other lighter flywheels that can be used with nismo coppermix twinplate system? Id like to gave the revs pick up faster than oem
    • RB20/25 covers don’t have threaded fasteners stock like RB26 covers. They are blind rivets so I will need to drill out and tap threads. I bought some M4x6mm button heads and will report back once done if I chose correctly length wise.    have also got some loctite
