Wow, what a night, just got home from the hospital! Took the missus to the doctors at 5:00PM and the doctor saw her, basically said, "holy shit, off to hospital you go" Just got out 20 minutes ago. Thankfully all is well and all she needs now is bed rest but definately not an experience I'd like to live again any time soon

there were some decent ones in the careers guide on saturday.

im beyond sick of working at the casino, so im applying for a few now.

but i find myself having to rewrite my resume.

old man thought itd be a good idea to upgrade and reformat my computer, so i lost my resume. rad.

well my title is educational support. I work in an english training centre, i enter data onto the government-provided system (which is crap). I do all the withdrawals, suspensions, class transfers, certificates, reports on the class rolls each week, also do all the marketing, involving brochures, our website and intranet, recently re-branded so had to change the logo on all of our documents, and do all of the local IT stuff, such as programs and applications on networked comps, basic patching on the server, changing backup tapes etc, anything bigger than me gets sent to Sydney to out IT dept. The systems stuff is pretty stressful at times, the stuff i do effects hundreds of peoples centrelink payments, which for alot of out migrants and refugees is the only income they recieve. Actually, im also OH&S deputy rep, and am one of three people on the workplace agreement negotiating committee. so i do a bit.

    • So could it be assumed it has been installed intentionally with potentially a power FC boost controller kit? 
    • Had my rig on Matt's dyno at PITS the other day. After a few years between tunes I added a few sensors and swapped intercoolers. Result. 553hp at 26psi. Not bad for an FJ20 that was built in 2007. The problem.. It filled the overflow bottle on hard runs which leads me to believe the head gasket isn't sealing. I have a coolant pressure sensor which was reading cap pressure at 22psi and occasionally overrunning to 23/24 psi on deceleration after a pull. It was not spiking. It has arp2000 head studs and a cometic gasket. As its been 18 years in service, I pulled the engine out and head off. Everything looks good but we obviously have an issue. Where I'm at.. Years ago I had the same issue, I checked the stud tension and they were all over the place. Some at 60 to 70 and some up near 90. I nipped them all to 100ft lbs and this stopped the water push until now. I believe this compromised the gasket back then. What do I do? 2 options are..  1) I bought arp 625+s, which I could put in with a new gasket. Thinking Kameari this time, reassemble and try again. 2) strip the block, get fire rings machined in with copper gasket and try that. I do not want to push it more than 28 to 30psi. I think the turbo will be out by then anyway. (G30-770). My other concern is the long term ability of a copper head gasket. Are they streetable for years? I feel like a new gasket with the new studs will probably suffice, but I don't know. Any thoughts welcome and advice on copper gaskets and fire rings. Thanks!
    • I'm a fan of the JZX110, and the Aristo. Big cruiser cars, and with the factory cars, super comfortable and feel like you're driving an armchair! And the JZ motors are a pretty nice engine too, especially with some basic mods.   The import process, and the need to be able to trust people, and the fact there's so many scammers around is what ever puts me off wanting to go through that ordeal!
    • I don't care for these at all, but at least the underside looks straight and not rusty. A good basis for a long life. Many cars from Japan have been lifted with forklifts and f**ked almost irrepairably.
    • Yes, but it's not dumb or dodgy. You can build a perfectly good boost controller from a pressure reg, a relief valve (looks same same as a reg if all from Norgren or SMC, for example) and a check valve. I ran one for years. Only superceded with  EBC because I could get one for cheaps and wanted finer control.   THis mod is certainly not a sketchy boost mod, provided the boost is kept below the "spin to death" threshold of the turbos.
