Anna are you a binge drinker?? :)

Why you bored other anna?

I am a binge drinker. no drink-no drink-no drink-no drink-no drink-no drink-SLAUGHTERED!!!

And I am bored because there is nothing interesting going on here at home :( And I am faced with a predicament. In my heart I know what I need to do... I've just got to go and do it.

I need peeps opinions on stuff...

You have always wanted to do something but never had the balls to do it. So you finaly quit work to study full time. Now you are having issues finding a job that will hire you over some 17 year old that they can pay minimum wage. So studying has turned you more emo. You have been presented with 2 options.

Option A: You are enrolled in a course that will give you 1/4 worth of what you need to do what you want in the future. The rest of the time you are enrolled in 'fluff' classes. Classes that teach you how to pick vital points in an argument, and classes that teach you why apes can't speak english. You are thoroughly enjoying the 1/4 of actual relevant learning you're doing, but are stressed about having no money to pay bills/loans/rent. You have also since discovered that you will need to add another 2 years onto the end of your degree, as the course is designed for school leavers that have prior knowledge of the subject. You know you will get a certificate at the end of it that says you stuck it out for 5 years, but you may just very well go insane in the meantime...

Option B: You have found a private school that offers night time classes that will allow you to work full time. This course has none of the 'fluff' that the university one does, and is specific to what you actually wanted in the first place. You will not end up with a piece of paper that says you went to university, but you will be finished within 2 years.

Which option do you take?

ur gonna hate this answer..BUT ur best to get that little peice of paper, caus in the end, someone with that peice of paper will get paid more than u if u dont have that piece of paper, or get hired before you, as on paper they are qualified, and ur not.

Interesting... that's what I had thought too. It's just kind of driving me insane. I know i'm going to fail classes because I hate them, and I don't want to waste more money than I already have. Also i'm going to be so far into debt by the time i'm done I don't know what i'm going to do.

i know what u mean, im sorta the same with this engineerng course i've been doing for the past 2 years. theres subjects in there that are totally useless, but in the end u need them to get that piece of paper.

ur only young, u've got the rest of ur working life to pay them off.

    • I seem to the be only person that is using a Haltech 2500 on an NA motor, I've installed a Bosch DBW throttle body to the OEM intake manifold and am having problems maintaining AFR even with the wideband o2.  It will run extremely rich at idle and up to redline, but under load it will go extremely lean in the 20s and i'm essentially having to rev it over 4k and feather the clutch to get it up to speed.  I've read a few other threads of about the butterfly, it seems removing the vacuum to it is supposed to have it remain open, i've noticed no difference under 4k with the vacuum line to it plugged.  I'm hoping someone here has had luck using the NA manifold with Haltech, and if they happen to have a tune for it.  
    • I don't know any details, but I really wouldn't be surprised if they do it as a LHD only version, at least initially.
    • Thanks for the replies everyone. Definitely a coolant push. Oil catch can is empty and always has been. As the engine is out now I'll be having a good look over things. I do have some detonation on the piston tops from a trigger issue back about 5 years ago. I felt it and shut off then bought a new ecu and changed the trigger. Never been an issue since. It never hurt the power, its made almost 80hp more since that incident but I will pull the bearing caps to take a look. If the bearings are damaged I will do a bottom end refresh. Head is being re conditioned at the moment and the block will be cleaned and checked to ensure it's flat. I'll go with a kameari gasket and see how it ends up. The other thing I'm not super keen on is the cylinder colours. I suspect this is from the inlet manifold. The plan will be to put it back together, retune and then stick a plazmaman billet inlet on it and retune. I'm happy with the power, if it makes a little more, then great, but I would rather just make everything more efficient at this stage.
    • Maybe they'll look to do a bunch of presales to help inject some cash fast for their financial issues...
    • Does it also misfire equally when revving?   Josh is very correct in what you should do. The coilpack harness wiring loom itself is a known problem due to its age and the number of heat cycles it has gone through. Throwing parts at a vehicle to diagnose the issue isn't a smart or good way to do it. Secondly, you may have a bad coil pack, you pop replacements in, they fix that issue, but messing with the harness breaks it, so the issue persists. So now you think "well it wasn't the coil packs" and have to continue chasing your tail, potentially swapping back in your shit coil packs and returning the good ones (yes, I've seen people do this because 'it wasn't the problem' and they want to save money). And suddenly, you've got two issues with the same symptoms...   Diagnose, don't use the spare parts shotgun.
