They don't last all that long considering I can't resole them but for $50 a pair the one star's are hard to beat. I got maybe 9 months out of my last pair. I looked at using volleys but they are now like $35 a pair and no where near as comfortable

Watch is a Bulova piece, jeans are CK and shoes are either Boss or Julius Marlow - if I choose to keep it cheaper :)

Or head to Lowes and keep it cheaper still.... :blink:

3 pies left... It's only 3 o'clock, forced mentally to do another bake. Blast

You mustn't be baking much considering how long you spend posting

This shoe talk is boring me. I thought this was a car club?

Do you ladies want to go shopping later?

Pfft, this is whoretown...

you guys are just wierd

Volleys, Cons...all crap compared to the old ones. Why must they destroy everything that used to be awesome. I wear steel cap boots every day, and even expensive ones of those are all crap now :(

because rose tinted glasses.

I've been wearing Cons for at least half my life now. I've only had two pairs out of dozens that have lasted me more than 18 months and that is due to me not wearing them often rather than actually lasting well.

I'm a fan of Julius Marlow shoes. The uppers last really well and they have been easy to get resoled as hospitality tends to demolish the soles of shoes between the alcohol and very high milage they get put through.

Although my current work shoes are Converse One Stars :)

Have found Julius Marlows to be quite good. Definitely get the longevity out of them. Windsor Smiths are up there for longevity as well.

Mine are Adidas Superstars. :D

How the heck did you get to 4M posts?!

OMG!!!!! Kinky Nick............ I found a picture of your ex

Sounds about right :P

ive only had a few cons, have had very little issues as long as you actually get real ones.....but Volleys are a totally different story

Have had 2 sets of black hi top Converses in 5 years, and I wear them every day.

When you see me Ill either be in:

A. Thongs

B. black hi top converses

C. Black leather Dress shoes

and another 2 gone awol :D (better start counting 'em Chris)

^

No need to count. I know they are all there. These ones wouldn't worry me too much if they went missing. Its some of the other ones that would worry me

    • Hello, sorry for being late to join the discussion, but my clock just died on me.   Ive tried to look at Michaels digital clock repair.docx and it doesnt work maybe the file has expired.   Please let me know if you can re upload it or take some youtube videos to show us how to get the clock installed? thanks
    • I thought that might be the case, thats what I'll start saving for. Thanks for the info 
    • Ps i found the below forum and it seems to be the same scenario Im dealing with. Going to check my ECU coolant temp wire tomorrow    From NICOclub forum: s1 RB25det flooding at start up Thu Apr 11, 2013 7:23 am I am completely lost on this. Car ran perfectly fine when I parked it at the end of the year. I took the engine out and painted the engine bay, and put a fuel cell with an inline walbro 255 instead of the in tank unit I had last year. After reinstalling everything, the engine floods when the fuel pump primes. if i pull the fuel pump fuse it'll start, and as soon as I put the fuse back in it starts running ridiculously rich. I checked the tps voltage, and its fine. Cleaned the maf as it had some dust from sitting on a shelf all winter, fuel pressure is correct while running, but wont fire until there is less than 5psi in the lines. The fuel lines are run correctly. I have found a few threads with the same problem but no actual explanation of what fixed it, the threads just ended. Any help would be appreciated.

I found the problem though. There was a break in one of the ecu coolant temp sensor wires. Once it was repaired it fired right up with no problems. I would have never thought a non working coolant temp sensor would have caused such an issue.
    • Hi sorry late reply I didnt get a chance to take any pics (my mechanics on the other side of the city) but the plugs were fouled from being too rich. I noticed the MAF wasn't genuine, so I replaced it with a genuine green label unit. I also swapped in a different ignitor, but the issue remains. I've narrowed it down a bit now: - If I unplug and reconnect the fuel lines and install fresh spark plugs, the car starts right up and runs perfectly. Took it around the block with no issues - As soon as I shut it off and try to restart, it won't start again - Fuel pressure while cranking is steady around 40 psi, injectors have good spray, return line is clear, and the FPR vacuum is working. It just seems like it's getting flooded after the first start I unplugged coolant sensors to see if its related to ECU flooding but that didnt make a difference. Im thinking its related to this because this issue only started happening after fixing coolant leaks and replacing the bottom part of the stock manifolds coolant pipe. My mechanic took off the inlet to get to get to do these repairs. My mechanics actually just an old mate who's retired now so ill be taking it to a different mechanic who i know has exp with RBs to see if they find anything. If you have any ideas please send em lll give it a try. Ive tried other things like swapping the injectors, fuel rail, different fuel pressure regs, different ignitor, spark plugs, comp test and MAF but the same issue persists.
    • My return flow is custom and puts the return behind the reo, instead of at the bottom. All my core is in the air flow, rather than losing some of it up behind the reo. I realise that the core really acts more as a spiky heatsink than as a constant rate heat exchanger, and that therefore size is important.... but mine fits everything I needed and wanted without having to cut anything, and that's worth something too. And there won't be a hot patch of core up behind the reo after every hit, releasing heat back into the intake air.
