yeh mr spencer wat are you whinging about if you pay 1200 a week in tax you must be pulling in around 1600 a week in the hand!

anyways mine is going straight on to my ge creditline for my new wheels i got, 12 months interest free.

as much as i would love to use towards a set of coilovers, i really have to pay some debt off first haha

Big Kev the second is paying for my Power-FC re-tune for my RS4s as at the SAU-Vic dyno day my peak power was only 110awkw at 4000rpm and the power went down from there?

Damn, that's pretty piss-poor, I managed to drag up 126awkw on my stocker just after I bought it...

might buy some whiteline swaybars and get a tune :)

Good luck with that, I'm having trouble getting Whiteline to admit thay have made an adjustable HD bar for the GT-R...

But back OT, when I get my moolah next month, it will help pay for things I've already bought! :down:

might get a few items from the whiteline catalog, or nistune setup, or put it towards a new tig welder (hello custom IC/intake piping). either way i'm happy, i love getting something for nothing :down:

Trust me, we will be paying it back with interest in the long run!

... and here I was thinking that we have already paid for it with interest over the past 13 years...

... I still think that 1 initial payment to "the people" and then tax cuts would have helped our economy in the long run.

I know I would be happier to spend if I had an extra $50-100 per week in my pocket than a $900 lump sum.

Back On Topic;

Looks like I will be putting the money in to help with the house deposit (the land is ours already :down: )

Agreed tax cuts would of been a beter option, i guess that would of taken to long to filter through where as the lump sum is almost instant.

I should really be getting stuff for the house were building now, but meh i need the car fixed to.

Already bought myself a MSI Wind netbook ($600). The M35 is due for a big-ish service soon too so the rest will go towards that - have some small issues to fix up on the car - just minor stuff mostly.

I was going to use mine towards a new front bumper, hks split dump and maybe get a new Greddy intercooler.. but decided to use it to upgrade my current PC and use my current parts to build another server for my house.. so car's going to have to wait for tax time..

Maybe you should get an iPod 'cause your wife is going to be talking about the Dyson in very excited tones for a while.

Can't go past a Honda mower... VTEC? :D

A mate at work bought a Bogan Tv. It lasted 2 days. Has been 4 weeks waiting for it to be fixed.

I picked up a 50" Panasonic full HD yesterday. :blink:

Great picture

      33 GTR Broken front wheel knuckle

      By GTSBoy · Posted

      That's probably OK. That's a face to face compression joint between two surfaces with the clamping load provided by those bolts. So.... it's unlikely that the bolts will end up feeling that load in shear, unless the clamping surfaces are not large enough, bolts not got enough tension on them, etc etc to prevent the two faces from moving wrt each other. Which... I would hope the designers have considered, seeing as it's probably one of the most important things the upright has to do apart from resist collapsing in its own right. But yes, it would definitely be worth asking them what their safety factor on that part of the design was. I tend to think that the casting, being a casting, is not necessarily the strongest bit of material in the world. It's about an inch square, and when you think about the loads that are being put into it, you have to wonder what safety factor the Nissan boys (and every other OEM engineer who has designed all the millions of other uprights that look essentially the same) used to account for defective casting, aging, severe impacts on the wheel, etc etc.

      Those bolts would be orders of magnitude stronger that cast aluminium though.  And its mainly clamping force, not shear they are dealing with?

      Except all that twisting force that is breaking a cast piece, appears to be going through 4 bolts in the picture Johnny posted of the BryPar one...

      R34 auto to manual conversion help

      By GTSBoy · Posted

      The smart approach is to use the gearbox loom from the manual car. Makes it a lot easier - just plugs into the switches on the box and plugs into the main loom up near the fusebox. Then you only need to deal with bypassing the inhibit switch. The other approach requires you to use the wiring diagram to identify those wires by colour and location, perhaps even indulging in a little multimeter action to trace them end to end to make sure, and then.... you will have the answers you need. The R34 wiring diagram is available on-line (no, I do not have a link to it myself - I would have to do a search if I wasn't able to go to the copy I have at home).
