+1 for hating water restrictions, my f**kin garden looks like the fink desert ;)

yeah our front yard is looking parched az...

folks ended up paving and putting fake lawn in the backyard, so it looks kinda normal.... as normal as fake grass can look at least....

-D

I hate it when you sms someone.. and they never reply. Even after repeated sms'

Yeah I have that very problem with a SAU user who decided not to reply to smses, and he turns his phone off when I call to see whats going on. Bad trader rating on the way.

I must admit , I hate water restrictions aswell. But my lawn is the greenest on the street. Why you ask ?

Because it was laid down on perfectly preped soil . 50%loam 50%organic and left to settle for 6 months , then lovingly turned over and gypson applied in large doses .

The next trick was a water smart blend of santa anna grass ((cost $20 for 60sqm) I know the right people) and rolled out and hand watered by watercan for first 2 weeks.

Last of all the tricks is to water well (deep soak to train deep roots) and most important of all is to let it grow a little bit longer than normal in the hot weather.

I havent broken the restrictions once since it was planted last easter (good friday).

So when I see my fellow neighbours watering when they shouldnt , It really pisses me off.

I also hate those bloody cotton and rice farmers up river.

How to fix the river murry down stream . I have come up with an idea to increase of flow down river.

Has anybody got a boat ?

Then keep going back and forth through the locks up the river and back again.

Every time the lock is used , they need to bring the lower level to the same height as the high one so they flood the lock with higher level water. When the boat has passed , they will then let that water back to the lower level to let the next boat move up stream.

Of course when these boats want to come back downstream , they need to let the higher level of water to go down to the lower level , thus dumping the water to the lower side of the lock.

The more boats going back and forth the more water goes downstream .

so Bring on the river murrey cruise . the more boats , the merrier.

Sounds good in logic . :O

If that doesnt work , bring back the bouncing bombs from ww2. lets take out those weirs and locks :)

Come on Ben , Im the mitre10 man. We give the right advice and have everything you need .

We even sell the fake shit.(lawn) :)

To answer one of your questions though , stay real because it has the added bonus of cooling the air that passes of it.

How much heat is absorbed and radiated off of concrete pavers etc . Lawn dosent do that as stated above .

Simple experiment , sit on real grass on 40" day then sit on the drive way.

No brainer really

i hate it when my GF shuts the pantry door. bad habit apparently, but i reckon she is secretly trying to hide all the good food!

:) Life in your house must be stressful. ;)

I hate idiots who contact you regarding something you have for sale, and they offer less than half of what you're asking for. Seriously ... if you ain't got the money, don't waste my f**king time.

    • The 296mm rotors are the R33 turbo brakes. The 310mm rotors are the R34 turbo brakes. The calipers are nearly the same, but not. They're the same caliper but the R34 caliper has longer legs so that it sits out far enough to go over the rotor. The pads are the same for both. When you say, "I bough tsome EBC"....did you just mean pads? Or rotors? 310mm rotors fit under 17" wheels. There may be some wheels without enough clearance though. I can't fit my fingers between the barrel of my wheel and the "corners" of my R34 calipers, but there is plenty of room behind the spokes. This is on Enkei RPF1. You can fit 324mm rotors inside a 17" wheel, but I'd be willing to bet that it would be close to impossible with the Nissan/Sumitomo caliper (using an adapter, of course), because the Sumitomo caliper is fatter than the Brembo caliper that is supposed to go on the 324mm rotors.
    • Hi. Can someone tell me what brakes(and mainly WHERE) can i buy brakes on R34 GTT? I bought some EBC which SHOULD go on my car(i have GT but it has GTT brakes) but it does not fit, Brakes are "too" small(296mm) Are 310mm be good or? I have 17 inch wheel so no "big boys" but for me driving i just need one that fits and i can get here in EU/Czech.
    • Since winter isn't that harsh anymore in Poland, i will definetely drive it 365 days a year 😉. But if the snow hits i will try it for sure and let U know. Only swap i am planning to do is of course R34 GTR front 😍.
    • Hey. Very valuable information about pitwork, I will pay attention when buying any consumable parts 🙏 As for the carpets - I got a handful of information from nengun, from which it appears that indeed the carpets for the driver's side are OEM. They are not able to show me any pictures due to the long chain of different sales entities but after I place the order, as soon as the goods arrive at the nengun warehouse from which they will send the shipment to me they can send me photos and if my purchase differs from OEM I can immediately return it / cancel the purchase. I think I will give it a try 😉. Of course i'll let you know what's what as soon as i get them P.s. I know the topic is not relevant to the thread, but both nengun and amayama have these SICK 😍 trunk room lamps available. Do you know anyone who ordered them? I need to have one in my car
