naw mang that was my roommate lol (3? 4? months lel)

still, we only been together for a year, so valid point

A year is all relative .. Been together a year at 18 is nothing but a year at 30 is totally different I think

Agreed ppl are much less picky the older they get, more likely to stay with that person for longer than a year

Not sure about picky, but people seem more honest about what they want and 'get to the point'

Yeah the whole get to the point and honesty thing is also a part of that adult mindset responsible for them being less picky.

Correlation with age and people finding a long term partner - exists because of nature and also that societal push/expectation that they should settle down: "You need to find yourself a gf", "I need to get myself a girlfriend", "I want to have a baby" blah blah. Adult hormones kick in, women want children, men want company and not just sex because they might be past their sexual peak or have had little success with sexing lots of women. People get more desperate to achieve this, impatient even, and will settle for just a good person; willing to put up with more shit and acknowledge/accept some faults in everyone because desperate/impatient and realise their chances of finding that idealistic perfect partner / Mr and Mrs right that they were looking for when they were younger may not exist; "This is as good as it gets." Then the people they do find end up becoming their perfect partner...or not...if they break up!

People then return to a bit of pickiness post family or divorced cause they've been and done the settle down thing. It's hilarious the reasons people break up or end dating for when a middle aged divorcee; very similar to the shitty reasons people end things when young.

That car the pic is being taken from doesn't look like a slouch either - guessing he's probably with the Viper.

I'm pretty much the exact opposite to everything you just wrote

If you're settling for a good partner, rather than someone who is a fantastic partner, and is the right person for you then you're in the wrong relationship and sucks to be you.

    • Harness update time have had great fun and learnt so much already so far with this project. I started off making both the ignition and injector sub harnesses in the hope any mistakes i made here aren't as hard to undo and learn from as the main harness.  A cool comparison of the old harness using presumably TXL wire and the new which is using Tezel. Also opted to use DTM plugs to keep the whole setup as neat and tidy as possible and tucked the wiring under the coil bracket to try and keep it all from sticking out too much. Although the injector harness, I'm not overly happy with as I'm still using the rubber boots that are supplied with the type of plugs it just looks ugly and sticks out like a sore thumb with the white identifiers so a slight redesign may be done.   Then it was main harness time and most importantly trying to route it nice and away from the heat it will use the OEM heater hose routing which is no longer present to keep the harness up high and secure. it's amazing how much smaller this harness is able to be compared to the old one. plugged everything into the emtron and with the help of the tuner again attempted to start it up and instantly fired up and running smoothly on all 6 which was a big shock to myself. So still some routing and adjusting to be done for the final fit up and installing a knock sensor harness plug which is in the post all has gone surprisingly well.     The old harness for shits and giggles.
    • They do that at random every now and then, with almost no detectable cause. Mine has done it a couple of times (over 25 years!!). Never worked out why.
    • I don't post on here and have been lurking for some time now. Many of the topics have helped me out more times than i can count. I was racing yesterday (11/9) and blew a front right CV shaft. I have spares so I popped a new one in. A thread i read previously said to check the engine mounts if you blow a front CV. Upon inspection, the front right mount was completely separated from the upper plate. This discovery saved me time and money, because i would have blown another CV if i went back out. Just wanted to thank you guys and wish everyone luck with with their builds. (Now if we could only come up with a solution for my power steering belt flying off after hitting the rev limiter, lol)
    • Either way he still need those style of spacer to go into the manifold because the photo he currently has is not going to work 
    • You can just get the injector bosses, which allows top feeds to fit. He can use the same injectors without issue, like these (another option): https://rocketindustries.com.au/af59-2210-rb25-fuel-injector-inserts     The Racework ones look a bit better: https://www.nzefi.com/product/raceworks-lower-injector-mounting-boss-kit-for-r33-rb25det-s14-s15-sr20det/   You could also just get a similar kit like the Radium one by Plazmaman: https://plazmaman.com/product/nissan-rb25det-r33-billet-fuel-rail/?srsltid=AfmBOoogfYq49X0fu2Wdbf8yOf6zt9egyPAif_gn3Qr3G8hzAphhTgOkO70
