been out fishing four times on various nights/various locations this week, holidays ftw!

we cleaned up a good amount of size and some absolute cracker size blueys off grange jetty late Thursday night / Friday morning. We did throw back a shitload of small ones however. picked up a few big sand crabs too.

Every time we pulled the nets up, never empty. More crabs than an 80s hooker's bush. After 1am we were the only ones on the Jetty, and that's when we bagged most, and the biggest.

it was dodge tide that morning apparently, so we didn't try for fish or squid.

crazy.... ever time I've gone fishing off an adelaide jetty I've caught bugger all except tommies and gar... a crab here and there but certainly not that many... largs pier is generally the one i go to...

looking forward to getting some snapper in a couple weeks time when i'm on the boat but would love some blueys and squid in the meantime.

anyone know if theres anything biting at rapid bay? campsite there is only $5 a night which means you can pitch a tent and sleep after drinking on the jetty so i've been considering it for a cheaparse getaway one weekend.. no point in going if nothings out there though

Gamers form a political party to try and get rid of the current Attorney General :(

http://au.gamespot.com/news/6246654.html?t...adlines;title;3

It's no secret that South Australian Attorney-General Michael Atkinson is frequently challenged by gamers about his stance on the R18+ rating for video games in Australia. But far from the angry letters and e-mails the Attorney-General is used to receiving, a group of gamers have decided to tackle him in a new arena: the political sphere.

Atkinson is now being challenged on his home turf by a new political party dedicated to seeing R18+ introduced. Gamers4Croydon, a 650-strong party set up by campaigner David Doe in September last year, is planning to run its own candidate against Atkinson in the seat of Croydon in the upcoming South Australian election.

This is Michael Atkinson's reply:

"I assume the Gamers4Croydon campaign will involve criminal activities and dirty tricks, which is what I've come to expect from gamers,"

Apparently gamers are criminals and uses dirty tricks :)

Pity I'm not in the Croydon area! I'd vote for them.

Barely drive the R with the new exhaust, and already there is a nice yellow tinge to go with all the carbon splatter :)

no cat...

thats one pussy you dont want.

If the car wasn't white, i wouldn't worry. But as Ben said, be damned if im going to be scrubbing the rear bar every week or two.

Me thinks i might hit AM up for a nice high flow and get him to refit the ecv while he's at it.

yer, mine being black i suppose i never noticed it..

yer, ppls with black cars always complain about how hard they are to keep clean but once u own a white car, even the smallest thing is visible, be it brake dust, exhaust dust, bird poo etc

looking forward to getting nistune installed on my ecu so i can get my 575 injectors tuned to the nth degree

Never bothered me, because I tend to clean my car nearly every week anyways :)

I've had both and IMO black is way worse.

      RB25DET with solid lifters - which cams ?

      By TurboTapin · Posted

      They are under bucket shims. Tomei provides a test shim kit and then any measurement of shim required.

      RB25DET with solid lifters - which cams ?

      By GTSBoy · Posted

      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.

      RB25DET with solid lifters - which cams ?

      By TurboTapin · Posted

      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?

      Why am I hitting a power wall with my stroked RB25?

      By TurboTapin · Posted

      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. It just states that 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!?!?
