Don't you hate that! Everytime ya think the cars fixed something else brakes. Trust me, the Corolla wrecked the starter motor. While at the sparkies they inform me the alternator is also had it. Quoted $360 to fix it so I said forget it I will pick it up. Dad ended up getting someone to fix it for me WAAAYYY cheaper. The battery was also stuffed, the carby was so had it that it wouldn't idle (now it has fuel injection) and the brake lights occasionally get stuck on so you have to jump start it next time you drive it. Had a lot of fun with it in the 6 months I have owned it hay!

I have to pay it off or something first. Techinally I do own it (in my name) but Mum and Dad paid for it so to do the right thing, I have still got it, but they wonder why I wanna drive the VN more?:crazy: I am saving for a new R31 at this point though.

I am part time Niz, downfall, I earn part time wages.

Heyas All... Good morning!

Well today is my last day here at work so I might not be on the forums for a bit, maybe 2 weeks or so till I get a nice internet connection.... If anybody needs anything important please gimme a call on the mobile or call me at Osbourne Park Zest Health Club :-)

Take care and hopefully will be chatting with you guys really soon :-)

I owe Mum like $2500 for my car and have paid of, ohh, let me see, about $60! I think I might save up instead of pay that off, once I have saved up enough then I will buy a new one and give them the Rolla back. More enthusiastic that way. I am thinking of buying a really neat un'licenced R31 (if I can find one) and do it up and licence it myself. Might work out cheaper that way.

    • Yes...but look at the numbers. There is a tiny tiny fraction of the number of Joules available, compared to what is used/needed. Just because things are "possible" doesn't make them meaningful.
    • Thanks for taking the time to post that ! If anything changes or happens please do update us. 
    • Somehow Vertimass/Oak Ridge National Labs has figured out a catalyst that can convert ethanol into C9-C10 hydrocarbons in basically a single step without ending up with a bunch of ethylene or similar waste products: https://patents.google.com/patent/WO2023224867A1/en I still don't think anything like this will keep us from needing to transition to EVs regardless along with all kinds of other electrification, but things like this will go a long way towards alleviating the problem of how to electrify things like planes. Renewable diesel is seemingly an easier problem as well, Chevron is already running refineries for the stuff and the primary feedstock is tallow and other waste fats from agriculture.
    • Ok so I have sorted everything with my uniclutch and  i can offer up a bit of feedback and some things that might help others.    I found problems with factory damper line. Weird shit and had trouble with peddle adjustment    I used this https://au.gktech.com/products/r33-gts-t-skyline-braided-clutch-line?_pos=2&_sid=22b01b9b9&_ss=r Also when adjusting peddle leave a bit of play. You can get into a over stroke condition easy.. Make sure you can push the slave forward after adjusting to confirm fluid can return to master then you will need to pump it up heaps…..not sure why but that’s how it is.    last thing the splined adapter is machined perfectly. If your input shaft is old like mine was I would put a bit of valve grinding paste on it and stroke it like a 15 year old. Just to give it a tad more clearance and to better match it to the spline.    reason is on a near flat shift I have had situation where the peddle returns a millisecond after you lift from the clutch. No slip or anything but I reckon this is due to tolerance on the spline being way tighter than stock clutch and binding for a sec. I think this will go away but also my spline was old. Box is old so I guess I should have checked better. It’s a super neat fit.    it feels light as and holds awesome without any noise
