i think i got a little to close to the fireworks, in my area they were shooting them at each other lol. they put a few upside down on purpose i think :s and i have to say it looked pretty cool/dangerous watching them blow on the road, i had to dodge a few as they came flying down the road. almost went deaf when someone decided not to tell anyone they were going to let of a loud ass bunger... was a good night all up.

ps. HAPPY NEW YEAR

I waved a sparkler around in the backyard with my friends and cousins. We left our run too late and could only get one sparkler each due to a lack of boxes of sparklers at all the shops we visited.*

* This may or may not be a fabrication of the truth...

HAPPY NEW YEAR'S, everyone! :worship:

I was on a mates 45ft Catamaran next to Man'O'War steps (next to the Opera house), so I could've waved at you Shauny.. :)

got sooooo drunk :S

had fun laughing at all the plebs in the crowd around Circular Quay and looking at everything through a Thermal Imaging camera... some people have REALLY hot crotches... we also tried to see if we could fry a christmas ham with the Radar... no go, unfortunately.

Also, managed to do a double front tuck off the roof of the Cat (about 4.5m above sea level) into the sea.. too drunk to care about pollution/safety etc.. lol

One of the best NYE's EVER!!!

oh, and the view was ok too :P

    • Lamb roast on Saturday will be different 🥲
    • They are under bucket shims. Tomei provides a test shim kit and then any measurement of shim required. 
    • I always wondered how you were supposed to buy a set of 24 buckets and somehow magically have every single one of them yield exactly the desired clearance. I would have thought you'd need to assemble a cam with either 12 "sample" or "example" buckets of known top thickness (or a single such sample/example 12 times over!!) measure clearances at every valve, and then do the usual math to work out what the actual "shimness" of each bucket needed to be, before buying the required buckets to make up he thicknesses that you didn't have on hand.
    • I now seem to be limited in power due to my rev limit/hydraulic lifters in my built RB25. I'm looking into converting over to Tomei solid lifters. Question for anyone that has done the conversion. I was always under the impression that when using the Tomei solid lifter conversion, you would also require new valves (Longer or shorter stems, I can't remember which).  I don't know where I got this idea, as so far I see no mention of this in any of the Tomei documentation. It just states I need the Tomei solid buckets, solid lifter cams and upgraded springs. As my head is already built, all I would need is another set of 1000$ Kelford cams, 500$ buckets and about 4H hours of my time installing and I'm off to the races!?!? There's no way it's that simple, I must be missing something? 
    • I couldn't agree more. I should have started from the get-go with a NEO or solid bucket conversion. I started looking into converting over to solid lifters yesterday. Now for some reason I was always under the impression that when using the Tomei solid lifter conversion, you would also require new valves (Longer or shorter stems, I can't remember which).  But I see no mention of this on any of the Tomei documentation.
