Lumbar puncture results are in... Not what we wanted to see and I'll probably be in hospital for another 2 weeks minimum and another 2 lumbar punctures. Pressure in my spine has dropped but is still over double what it should be and white blood cells have doubled since last lumbar puncture, where they were already too high.

Starting to really play on my mind now which is why I'm talking about it.

On the plus side my private room balls harder than jay-z's bank account so at least that's something :/

We still can't find the cause. It's most likely to be a virus we don't have a test for yet. And there is no prevention possible.

Leading theory is I was near some asshole that sneezed and caught it that way however the virus made its way into my spine/brain somehow. This happens fairly often (meningitis) however I copped the less common meningoenciphilitis which is of course worse.

Oh and in reference to the dog vs cat discussion we had a couple years back, my dog has sat on the top of the couch looking out the window waiting for me all day and all night for the last 2 weeks.

Every. Single. Day.

Stick that in your cat and smoke it

I dunno, I don't mind cats at all, they smell less, break less of your shit and kinda look after themselves...

Probably best not to ask Alvin, Jonoe, Tony, etc which they prefer...

What would be the rough cost of re-spraying my front bar if I remove it and disassemble my self? In northern suburbs - any suggestions?

Problem is if it's off the car, they'll have trouble color matching and blending to make it look right :/ If you don't mind, and provide them with the paint codes, I dunno maybe $3-400?

Are you capable of prepping the bar yourself? Sanding, Primer, etc? 75% of the work is in the prep...

Good point, I didn't think they'd have to really blend considering it's a different panel. I guess I'd just take the whole car in, I just don't trust some of the shops around here a)working on my car b)having access to the keys/alarm/etc for "later use" :/

    • You all are absolute legends! Thank you for helping me put this into context with your comparisons!
    • There's probably an underlying issue with the A/C system too. I recently fixed mine, now it's fully control by the Haltech and car's factory HVAC controller  Have a squiz here:    
    • And by the way, I've also checked the ECU diagnostic numerous times and got a bad O2 sensor code and initially an Ignition Primary code, which is why I replaced the O2 sensor and all the ignition components (coil packa, plug and loom). No codes have been coming up lately despite the ongoing issue.
    • Hey pber13, unfortunately still no luck. At this point the following has been done with little or no success: - Spark plugs replaced, gapped to 0.8mm - Splitfire coilpacks installed to replace originals - Replaced Ignition Coil/Coilpack harness with a new genuine nissan one - New fuel filter - Replaced AFM/MAF sensor - Injectors have been thoroughly cleaned with an online flush (without removing) - Upper engine and inlet decarbed - blew tons of black smoke out, cleared the carbon deposits from the top of the engine and exhaust.  - IACV removed and thoroughly cleaned with carburettor cleaner - O2 sensor replaced with new and genuine one -  Smoke test revealed no vacuum leaks - Healthy compression test of 160psi across all 6 cylinders Overall the car does run a lot smoother now, no backfires between gear shifts like it did originally... but the rough idle when warmed up is still there. It may not even be a misfire but simply a rough idle. Seems crazy to me that so many people have had this issue and seemingly no one has gotten to the bottom of it, or at least never bothered to post if they did! Hope you have more luck than I did pber13, I'm at a point now where I'm just going to try to ignore it unless it gets worse. Would love to fix it but I've genuinely run out of ideas of what it could be.
    • I got the full frenchys kit too. Really awesome kit. Easy to install my only complaint was the hardlines I think could be routed differently (I modified mine) but I realise the kit needs to suit multiple applications. This was the hard lines before I modified them. They were touching the wastegate pipe. I ended up reducing the distance between firewall and first bend. The made it so they tucked along the frame rail.
