Bonzalite: Hmmm ..... i guess i understand your polarity theory ..... its really a real life explanation of of the yin - yang theory. I agree with you in saying that perhaps sexes to impinge upon one another's territory ....... in Australia maybe, in the US maybe and maybe in other countries too. However if we look at society as global whole then is their really a tsunami of energy or an imbalance in the 'polarity of nature'.

Not in my opinion, not in any of the south american countries i grew up in, defiantely not in the asian country i was born in, and definately not in many european countries i travelled when i was in my early twenties.

Countries like Australia dont have an assymetric information gap between sexes and it doesnt have 2000 years of culture like many of the other countries do. It is in essence a new country, not weighed down by prehistoric customs or misconceptions of grandeur. Thats what I like about it ...... its always G'Day mate.

So is there really an imbalance in the polarity of nature, is there really an imbalance of the yin and yang. No ...... not in a global scale, not when when u think of how imbalanced it is in some other countries. If anything it is more balanced now i say.

So yeah maybe Australian guys and other men in similiar western countries are becoming softer, more docile, more femenine. The reality is however that the stereotypical 'John Wayne' type of man is no longer necessary in modern civilisation. Our women dont need to be protected for fear they be raped, or conned, or taken away from us or mistreated in any number of ways. Why should we fear situations like this, we live in a free society where in most cases these notions are now alien.

Perhaps it is true that men these days are confused as to what or how we should act. Its because we are the new frontier, an emerging species of new man, dude just enjoy it.

ecenshu : hehe menza i dont think so. This would be light toilet humour to them. Have u ever read 1 of their monthly newsletters. The one i read came with some sort of nahavo language code at the front and the whole newsletter had to be decoded before u could even read it. At the back of the newsletter it said if it took u longer than 3 hours to decode and read this u are normal. and then it said Ha Ha

Dude it took me 3 days to get there.

this thread is outta control, I agree with CWest, if you spend too much time trying to analyse life, and work out whats going on - well your missing out, just live every day like its your last and all will be good, I am sure if you analysed anybody enough with the right focus, you could make them out to be either a saint or a sinner:p

And as for your line pulling chicks, well if that happens, good luck - everybody has different methods of pulling members of the opposite sex (or same sex if you are that way inclined)

As for yin/yang, the very nature of it means that eventually all shall be in balance all on its own, without anybody worring about it - try reading the tao te ching - if you can understand much of it, eventually you may realise it all (life) means nothing except what you make of it.

bugger, now I am getting deep

cwest, i'm not into the john wayne male thing. that is not what i am talking about at all. i am talking about emasculation of men. a properly "masculated" man is not suddenly john wayne. that is a parody, hyperbole cartoon character.

i get the idea that you don't understand what i am really meaning. nature is in balance no matter what. yin is in the yang, some yang is in the yin. the emasculation/defeminization of society is a result of abusive ubringings. and it is being reinforced in western culture as if it is ok and marketable, as the process is obvious throughout media and general conduct. being male is being taken as a disease today, as if natural masculinity were aberrant behavior. nature itself will ultimately balance out anything. even if it takes a mass extinction or something as history has taught us this. there is a thread about "political correctness," and this is a direct result of an emasculated society.

the tsumani i speak of is symbolic of energy as a whole, particularly sexual energy. it is omnipresent and all-emcompassing. like in the motion of the planets, or, for example, the females' cycle is larger than any one individual to control or possess. it is primal and otherworldly. this is an example of what i am meaning. this topic, generally, is difficult to convey, as i am seeing. many bring their own precepts to the table that further alter the point here. i think we generally agree, however, without the other fully knowing it.

what really matters overall, imo, is how you work with what you have.

cheers. :(

My friend your outlook of life is just too complicated, not because u think too much but because u give a shyyt. True, each individual adds to the this energy u speak of, which is a theory, a fantasy if u like. Such energy does not exist in reality though its plainly evident that it can exist in ones imagination. I know u dont mean to say that such a tsunami exists rather u are trying to explain the consequences of society in a way that may make sense to something that can not really be put into words.

I think understand the general flow of your argument, that there is a sense of repression (especially sexual) caused by the advent of society. This repression causes a discharge to feed this tsunami u speak of and society and more specifically the emascualtion of society feeds more and more energy into this tsunami.

I guess its not the theory that I dont understand rather its the point u are trying to make, perhaps u are foretelling the doom of man (literaly).

All in all i dont really think that society media and so forth is actually feminizing society much. I just think society is reaching a point where men and their traditional roles are not needed. Guys like me (i am actually quite macho and a male chauvenist) are just not the most efficient type of male, because our way of lifestyle does not contribute much to society. I understand that, do i give a shyyyyt, not really.

The whole point is we are born into this world, raised by family, taught by society and media to act a certain way be a certain way. But one day u should realise that only u can make yourself happy, that only you have the power to take what u want. The war should never be about you and society, it will always be about you and yourself.

Real power comes with knowing that u have a choice in life. Dude, by the way u talk u are certainly smart and I know u understand the complexities and shortcomings of society. What I dont understand is y u give a rats arse.

Hehe ... y are we replying to a thread about picking up chicks in our skylines. Obviously it was never meant for indepths discussions.

oh no....big words....complex issues...

head.....about.....to .....explode.... :Bang:

J/K...this thread has its different perspectives and its refreshing :) Keep at it guys...

OT: Anyone read "Art of War"? Now that's also interesting...if you can decode it.

i dont know about pullin chicks... but yeah

when i first got my liner i had a long term relationship, that ended soon after (various reasons...) i rekon she was jealous i used to call the car "my baby" ahaha..

ive had a few comments from chicks, a stack of looks and DEFINATELY have a stack more numbers of both guys n gals since i got my car (new friends etc) but yeah...

will always be interesting to see what happens in the future....

yes. yes. yes. you are pretty much speaking for me. in the pocket, mate. you see it. my argument about feminization is tied to people, namely men, giving away their power. we do it all the time. both sexes. i seek to recover it, as it is very subtle. that's all i really mean. the recovery process is ongoing, like an addict in recovery - it is the same thing. it is more about "self-empowerment through your own gender" rather than "strict sex roles." you are entitled to feel that society is not as feminized as i make it out to be. ultimately, as you state, only you (the individual) can make yourself happy regardless of what society wants. who knows what it wants.

damn. if i had a skyline, i'd just might go out to pick up some chicks! (just kidding)

what kind of 'liner do you have, btw?

:wassup:

R34 GT Black with CWest kit and a few bolt ons. If i wanted to pick up chicks i would of got the turbo..... anyways had enough attention when i had a S2 r33 GTS-T 3 years ago, trust me u dont want the kind of attention it brings..... unless u are really young ...... or really horny ...... HEY im young ...... im also horny ..... am i missing something ?

    • I'm looking for some real world experiences/feed back from anyone who has personally ran a EFR7670 with a 1.05 exhaust housing or a .83 I'm leaning towards the .83 because its a street car used mostly for spirited driving in the canyons roads. I"m not looking for big numbers on paper. I want a responsive powerband that will be very linear to 8000 rpm. I dont mind if power remains somewhat flat but dont want power to drop off on top. The turbo I've purchased is a 1.05, although the mounting flange T3 vs T4 and internal vs external waste gates are different on both housings, I not concern about swapping parts or making fabrication mods to get what I want. Based on some of the research I've done with chat gpt, the 1.05 housing seems to be the way to go with slightly more lag and future proofing for more mods but recommends .83 for best response/street car setup. AI doesn't have the same emotions as real people driving a GTR so I think you guys will be able to give me better feed back 😀   
    • Surely somebody has one in VIC. Have you asked at any shops?  Is this the yearly inspection or did you get a canary?
    • This is where I share pain with you, @Duncan. The move to change so many cooling system pieces to plastic is a killer! Plastic end tanks and a few plastic hose flanges on my car's fail after so little time.  Curious about the need for a bigger rad, is that just for long sessions in the summer or because the car generally needs more cooling?
    • So, that is it! It is a pretty expensive process with the ATF costing 50-100 per 5 litres, and a mechanic will probably charge plenty because they don't want to do it. Still, considering how dirty my fluid was at 120,000klm I think it would be worth doing more like every 80,000 to keep the trans happy, they are very expensive to replace. The job is not that hard if you have the specialist tools so you can save a bit of money and do it yourself!
    • OK, onto filling. So I don't really have any pics, but will describe the process as best I can. The USDM workshop manual also covers it from TM-285 onwards. First, make sure the drain plug (17mm) is snug. Not too tight yet because it is coming off again. Note it does have a copper washer that you could replace or anneal (heat up with a blow torch) to seal nicely. Remove the fill plug, which has an inhex (I think it was 6mm but didn't check). Then, screw in the fill fitting, making sure it has a suitable o-ring (mine came without but I think it is meant to be supplied). It is important that you only screw it in hand tight. I didn't get a good pic of it, but the fill plug leads to a tube about 70mm long inside the transmission. This sets the factory level for fluid in the trans (above the join line for the pan!) and will take about 3l to fill. You then need to connect your fluid pump to the fitting via a hose, and pump in whatever amount of fluid you removed (maybe 3 litres, in my case 7 litres). If you put in more than 3l, it will spill out when you remove the fitting, so do quickly and with a drain pan underneath. Once you have pumped in the required amount of clean ATF, you start the engine and run it for 3 minutes to let the fluid circulate. Don't run it longer and if possible check the fluid temp is under 40oC (Ecutek shows Auto Trans Fluid temp now, or you could use an infrared temp gun on the bottom of the pan). The manual stresses the bit about fluid temperature because it expands when hot an might result in an underfil. So from here, the factory manual says to do the "spill and fill" again, and I did. That is, put an oil pan under the drain plug and undo it with a 17mm spanner, then watch your expensive fluid fall back out again, you should get about 3 litres.  Then, put the drain plug back in, pump 3 litres back in through the fill plug with the fitting and pump, disconnect the fill fitting and replace the fill plug, start the car and run for another 3 minutes (making sure the temp is still under 40oC). The manual then asks for a 3rd "spill and fill" just like above. I also did that and so had put 13l in by now.  This time they want you to keep the engine running and run the transmission through R and D (I hope the wheels are still off the ground!) for a while, and allow the trans temp to get to 40oC, then engine off. Finally, back under the car and undo the fill plug to let the overfill drain out; it will stop running when fluid is at the top of the levelling tube. According to the factory, that is job done! Post that, I reconnected the fill fitting and pumped in an extra 0.5l. AMS says 1.5l overfill is safe, but I started with less to see how it goes, I will add another 1.0 litres later if I'm still not happy with the hot shifts.
