quick, tell me what you know... and when im well off i'll pay for your stay in the old folks home :)

:rofl: yeah not a real lot unfortunately Carl.......but I'd do a couple of things differently.

if he is managing a project then you dont do much work, you just have to know what is happening around you and manage how the project is going.

but the people that are in the project working for him will be doing all the work

problem is Krishy, these people are still working for a wage and no matter how big your wage is, your lifestyle will come up to par (ie. fancier car, house, holiday....even fancier wife).

I don't recall anyone getting rich on a wage unfortunately......even if you're earning $100 - $200K per year........you'll spend almost as much (human nature).

^^^ and I do .... how would you guys like to try on a $3k per month mortgage to pay? And that is just one of my MANY costs .... my wife says I should own shares in Ebay :D

WOW Andrew, that's a truckload of mortgage dude!! Man I'm so glad those days are over, mortgage payments were a real party killer. But having said that, once the celebrations of paying your house off are over, you'll find somewhere else to bury the $3K per mth into :)

You'll be amazed at what everyone on here spends unconciously.

Everyone should try this experiment.....spend the next 24 hrs writing down EVERY expense per mth including your yearly expenses (divided by 12 obviously), even the stop at Cibos for your lattes. Once you've calculated everything, add between another $50 to $100 per week to that figure cause that's how much you haven't taken into account with emergencies that may come along. Take that figure and subtract it from your NETT monthly income and if at least 50% of you don't register a negative result, I'll give Nightcrawler a big tonguey!! :D

Ahaha after some heavy airbrushing... u do realize shes holding her boobs for a reason, they probably look like badly fried eggs..

Ahh well, as long as u got the brown paper bag and some gaffer tape for her mouth, you might have a good time dude *thumbs up* diffrent strokes for diffrent folks and all that

-D

I think you'll find Ben that you don't need the tape, just cut a hole in the bag for her mouth......

My car is a daily, don't want something that stiff unfortunately. I'm sure they'd be awesome for a weekender/track/hills runs but I've had a car previously that was sprung like a race car and it's getting tiring very quick :D

How do you add pics to a post?

Cheers

either use the 'add reply' button (as opposed to "fast reply') then browse and upload in the attachments section below the text frame.

Otherwise use the 'insert image' button (looks a little bit like a painting) above the text box and point it to the url of the picture.

    • Hi People, has anyone come up with a way of getting non-driven wheel speed on a R32 Gts/gtst? from what i've seen the RWD R32 didn't look to come with ABS, if they did i can't find a rwd ABS front knuckle anywhere. is it a case of putting a S14/R33 front knuckle on and then modifying the ASB ring to suit a ECU input frequency limit? or have people managed to get a hall sensor onto the back of the hub and pick up the wheel studs?   i've searched but there isn't anything that I could find.
    • I was thinking about a hoist, the ceiling is very high, but half the garage has a half-height loft for storage and I dont think I'll even be able to jack the X5 up under it as it almost hits me in my 6'5" elevated head when i walk in there. And, yeah nah, maybe if I can convince Bec to let me get another car she'd be open to having as many as we can fit (cough @Duncan) but until that time you better steer clear! 🤣
    • For the sake of cost comparison, I’m currently embarking on putting a new 5 speed into my R33. I imported a new RB25DET gearbox from Japan, which was about AU$3.3k delivered to my door. It was a very slow process (~2 months) and I got extremely lucky with the exchange rate. The twin plate clutch I bought was about AU$1.8k. I've also had to buy all the additional parts required to convert the gearbox from a pull type clutch to a push type clutch. Total cost is about AU$5.5k, so GTSBoy is pretty close to the money.
    • Yeah, The Japanese had/have a problem with doing crap like that to undeserving shitboxen.
    • I run a CD009. See my DIY for info on what I spent. 6800$ isn't cheap, but it's not terrible either.   Keep in mind, you'll still need the following parts. - Shifter relocation kit - Trans Mount - Driveshaft - Slave Cylinder - Rear final drive (This doesn't have to be done right away.) - Some new way to detect speed.
