A friend got third division which was a "shitty" $3700. There's so much gap between the divisions! This draw was such a load of shit, you couldn't have paid me to enter it and sit there watching the TV like half the nation did. It was no different to any other draw!

UPDATE 9.50am: A COUPLE sharing a monster $106 million Lotto jackpot with a blue collar battler are back at work today despite their massive win.

They are first-time Oz Lotto players from the Gold Coast.

They are sharing the massive prize jackpot with an Adelaide battler, who has been trying for a big win for 20 years.

The ticket holders are now $53 million richer, after winning a share of Australia's biggest ever lotto draw.

The middle-aged couple from the Gold Coast, the South Australian man in his 40s were the only winners in the Oz Lotto $106 million first division prize drawn last night.

The couple, who – not surprisingly - wanted to remain anonymous, bought a ticket from Lucky Mermaid News on the Gold Coast while the man reportedly purchased his winning ticket at a cafe at the Queen Elizabeth Hospital in Adelaide.

"I'm numb and quite frankly I have no idea how I'm ever going to sleep again,'' the man from the blue collar Adelaide western suburbs told SA Lotteries.

"I never expected to win and certainly never expected to win more than $50 million.''

He said he would share his prize with family members and charities.

Golden Casket Lottery spokeswoman Karen Anning said it was the Gold Coast couple's first time playing Oz Lotto despite having played in other lotteries.

Lucky Mermaid News owner June Neilson says it's also the first time the agency has sold a first division winning ticket.

"I don't know if we'll get to meet them but I'm really happy for them,'' Ms Neilson said.

Despite their riches, the couple are going to work today.

"It is business as usual for them today. They are going to work,'' Ms Anning said.

"They said they had to check their numbers multiple times last night.

"When they got the call this morning solidifying their winnings, they said `I was hoping to hear from you this morning'.''

She said the couple were in the throes of deciding what to do with their new-found wealth.

"They want to help out family and donate money to some charities,'' Ms Anning said.

Another 60 people will each get more than $33,000 from the second division pool.

The Tuesday night jackpot draw originally set for $90 million was pushed up by a surge of late entries, taking the first division prize to just over $106.5 million and the total prize pool to $177.4 million.

The lucky trio have shared Australia's biggest ever lotto.

After 10 million tickets were sold - three million in Victoria alone - it was revealed last night there were just two winning tickets.

The monster prizes are the biggest individual Australian lotto wins, topping last year's $58.7 million Powerball prize shared by four Victorians.

While the top prize appears to have gone interstate, more than 1.1 million Victorians will walk away with something from the historic Oz Lotto draw.

Twenty-one Victorian ticketholders will get $33,468.25 as second division winners.

Unprecedented demand for tickets saw the first division prize pool top more than $106 million, smashing the expected $90 million jackpot.

Tattersall's spokeswoman Karen Anning last night said Oz Lotto fever had pushed the prize pool sky-high to a final figure of $106,548,562.15.

"The past couple of weeks have been absolutely phenomenal," she told the Herald Sun. "The interest around Australia has been absolutely unbelievable.

"To have finally drawn the prize is just sensational.

"We had never seen anything like it before and it is unlikely we will see it again for a very long time."

Last night's draw was the finale of a week of Oz Lotto mania.

Channel 7 interrupted regular programming to broadcast the draw.

Yesterday, millions of people flocked to lotto outlets to snap up their tickets. Tattersall's processed some 200,000 tickets an hour across Victoria between 3pm and 5pm.

The Tatts website shut down as millions tried to log on in a last-ditch attempt to buy a winning ticket.

Then the site went into meltdown again last night as millions tried to check the winning numbers.

Tattersall's will provide the new instant millionaires with a network of support services to assist them with the win.

"Maintaining their privacy and respecting their wishes is the primary concern and objective for us," Ms Anning said. "We will provide information and a list of services they can tap into to help them through this emotional time."

She said the winners would be able to collect their prize in about a fortnight.

got 4 numbers, won $30... not bad for $5 investment.

lol w00t.

This is wierd, since I bought a lottery ticket on my 15th birthday I've never lost any money on the lottery. granted I never play the shit, but every time I do I win something, usually something insignificant anyways.

The form of the text that the Italian pharmacologist is writing on his laptop is inconsistent between the close-up shots and the longer-distance ones: the laptop is a Windows machine, and the longer-distance show the Windows operating system, but the close-ups are of the modern Macintosh operating system.

    • our good friends at nismo make a diff for it, I have one (and a spare housing to put the centre in) on the way. https://www.nismo.co.jp/products/web_catalogue/lsd/mechanical_lsd_v37.html AMS also make a helical one, but I prefer mechanical for track use in 2wd (I do run a quaife in the front, but not rear of the R32)
    • What are we supposed to be seeing in the photo of the steering angle sensor? The outer housing doesn't turn, right? All the action is on the inside. The real test here is whether or not your car has had the steering put back together by a butcher. When the steering is centred (and we're not caring about the wheel too much here, we're talking about the front wheels, parallel, facing front) then you should have an absolutely even number of turns from centre to left lock and centre to right lock. If there is any difference at all then perhaps the thing has been put back together wrongly, either the steering wheel put on one spline (or more!) off, and the alignment bodged to straighteb the wheel, or the opposite where something silly was done underneath and the wheel put back on crooked to compensate. Nut there isn't actually much evidence that you have such a problem anyway. It is something you can easily measure and test for to find out though. My money is still on the HICAS CU not driving the PS solenoid with the proper PWM signal required to lighten the load at lower speed. If it were me, I would be putting either a multimeter or oscilloscope onto the solenoid terminals and taking it for a drive, looking for the voltage to change. The PWM signal is 0v, 12V, 0V, 12v with ...obviously...modulated pulse width. You should see that as an average voltage somewhere between 0V and 12V, and it should vary with speed. An handheld oscilloscope would be the better tool for this, because they are definitely good enough but there's no telling if any cheap shit multimeter that people have lying around are good enough. You can also directly interfere with the solenoid. If you wire up a little voltage divider with variable resistor on it, and hook the PS solenoid direct to 12V through that, you can manually adjust the voltage to the solenoid and you should be able to make it go ligheter and heavier. If you cannot, then the problem is either the solenoid itself dead, or your description of the steering being "tight" (which I have just been assuming you mean "heavy") could be that you have a mechanical problem in the steering and there is heaps of resistance to movement.
    • Little update  I have shimmed the solenoid on the rack today following Keep it Reets video on YouTube. However my steering is still tight. I have this showing on Nisscan, my steering angle sensor was the closest to 0 degrees (I could get it to 0 degrees by small little tweaks, but the angle was way off centre? I can't figure this out for the life of me. I get no faults through Nisscan. 
    • The BES920 is like the Toyota Camrys of coffee machines. E61 group head is cool, however the time requirements for home use makes it less desirable. The Toyota Camry coffee machine runs twin boilers and also PID temp control, some say it produces coffees as good as an E61 group head machine.
