wtf? jealous of being hopeless?

Yeh money'd be good, but not everyone has that option. Again, i'm one of those kids that never got anything, because my parents spent all their time putting me through music lessons to 'better my future'.

I left home, did the whole lived-on-rice-and-beans thing for about 18 months while I was earning $17K a year. Finally left that job and got a better one and started to buy stuff for myself. I own everything in my unit now.

Andrew, on the other hand, is one of those lucky ones. His grandad was one of the first orange farmers in qld, and as a result, a millionaire. He provided houses, shares and education grants for all of his children, grand children and great grand children. Thanks to his grandad, andrew now owns 2 cars, and still has a massive wad of money to buy a house soon, and his children are going to be lucky, and get a very good education.

You see the difference? I don't hate people because they have money. I respect people for different reasons. Some people that have money, you'd never know it, because they don't feel the need to talk about it constantly.

Yeah like me for example. I have money.

Like the other day, I was paying for a tank of fuel at the servo, and saw an iced coffee. Not a small one mind you, a 600ml carton. I looked at it and thought "hell, why not?". I threw that $2.50 on the counter like it was nothing. I could've bought a newspaper too, but didn't want to flaunt my incredible wealth in front of the commoners.

:P oh dear, brothers friends just left rubber all over our street infront of nieghbours :) my brother is going to get owned lol

dude r u sure he's really ur brother and not some kid from 'ipswich', caus u keep tellin us how much of a 'bogan' he is :)

Bah...you flogged that $2.50 from the tardis...it wasn't yours anyway :)

Hey John, I just read your times at Willowbank. Aren't they a little slow for the speed achieved?? I mean, I got a 13.7 @ 100.89MPH. Just wondering if you fluffed the start or got wheel spin??

that's f*kn funny marc, I like it.

And I don't doubt you have hopes Bryn, but if you read back over what you've said this past year, you'll understand why some of us deem you hopeless... it's got nothing to do with ambitions or dreams or knowledge. It's about how you portray yourself.

I am going to study next year, I am very excited. I am going to be poor as f**k, because my parents don't have money to put me through it, so it's all on my shoulders. But you know what? I don't care. I'm stoked to be learning. Cos at the end of it, i'll be earning a hell of a lot more, and be able to do things i've only ever dreamed of.

gettin new tyres next wknd. would this wknd, but wont be in town.

i have hopes :( bit harsh calling me hopeless

hopeless with cars u r :)...good ur havin a crack though :)

i was flamin useless and didnt have a clue until i got stuck in and pulled things about, and tried to put them back together...its funny how theres always a few bolts left over at the end though :)

10mins and i'm outta here

woohooooo

i got another hour or so, didnt get in til 10:30, i swear it was the traffic!...down at wynnum :P

Often...there will be others my friend ;)

ooo so who u got ur eye on karen?

Bah...you flogged that $2.50 from the tardis...it wasn't yours anyway :)

No way. That was from my stash.

But just to show how considerate I am, I could have bought that newspaper, and a spare iced coffee (yes, a spare... I can afford to indulge) AND turned up in the Cressida, but didn't want to offend the yokels. That would have been over FIVE BUCKS, in ONE HIT.

Anyway that'll do for now, everyone is no doubt in awe of my wealth. Time to jump in the car and pick up Karen. And who knows, I might just get that newspaper...

    • Don't even try to run it on the stock ECU if you're going to have the boost controller bring boost above ~10 psi. I've already told you that. If you use the Nistune ECU, you will need to CAREFULLY read the available documentation for Neo tuning, and read some threads on the Nistune forums, to discover the various things you have to do to prevent the ECU from going bananas when the boost is too high. The is a table associated with th boost sensor that must be modified to prevent it from shitting the bed. This is just one of the things that you will need to do to the tune in Nistune, because the Neo turbo ECU will be expecting to see a number of things (such as the TCS) that are not there, and you have to block the DTCs on those. It is totally not surprising to me that you are having the problems that you are, but the solutions to these problems have been known for >15 years. So just get it done.
    • Hi. Sry iam not a mechanic and iam not at the car atm so i dont know 100% but they told they measure those and even try to change those. AFM they have two. Coils are new a they have my old one too. Plugs too. ECU...we have 25 NEO stock and Nistune 25 NEO.   But i dont know if any one those could be the problem and why/if/what can cause this, Only thing they did not check is fuel...but that walbro 255 is new(like 1,5 years)... That fuel pressure gauge idk...but i let them know Any suggestions?   EDIT: how can they know if it is like you say he ECU pull power when it reaches a specific boost level that is too high? Tha car has boost controler
    • Can you clarify what you mean by boost cut, do you mean it misfires both when under load (driving) and when stationary and out of gear? Or does the ECU pull power when it reaches a specific boost level that is too high (boost control issue)? Does it occur at idle with no throttle? When you say "the ECU is OK", what ECU is it and why do you think it is OK? Have you used the NEO ECU, and if so do you have a MAP sensor attached? Same for the AFM, why do you think it is OK? Do you have any way to put a fuel pressure gauge on it (even just a mechanical one between the fuel filter and fuel rail)?
    • Hi.. Just another problem. So maybe you can help. I(my mechanic) done swap from my RB20DE NEO to RB25DET NEO. Everything is OK but we have a boost cut. Coils/Plugs are ok...AFM is ok. ECU is ok. I have Walbro 255 but it "changed" sound few months ago(you can hear it ouside) you did not hear that when it was new(maybe faulty?) Sooo...what now? What can cause this boost cut? It is even when you standing still...
