cheers Nick!

a few positives anyway mate, ie confidence in myself, etc

hell even the house is now sparkling clean! so, got the RE agent coming tomorrow to help start the ball rolling. sell, pay out ex & debt, move on, ????, profit

throw in some undies, or lack thereof, and we're all happy

the big thing for me is hoping to get into UniSA to study radiation therapy. that's my main ambition.

All Good News Brendon,

That Radiation shit Burns like F--K & makes your Hair stop growing i still have a BALD SPOT :wacko: ,

:domokun: Dale i never throught you was that Blunt pinch.gif ,shame its not 4wheels :whistling:

That drift biker is NUTS! Oh, and I've got friends in Albuquerque, NM. If I ever go to the States, I'll have to go and explore this track if I'm in need of an adrenaline fix. Might have to learn to drive a LHD car tho...

And yeah, epic skid is epic! Notice the car had For Sale stickers on it? Would you buy a car after seeing the current owner treat it like this?

had cortisone injections just now, into the knees.

came home to find Im adopting a little duckling that had lost its family......

At least Ducklings don't have a hidden agenda.:thumbsup: Just food & warmth.

All Good News Brendon,

cheers mate! thanks for the well wishes

yes it wouldnt be nice, but I wont be happy unless Im helping others. Not keen on counseling, the medical radiation sciences appeals to me though.

would be awesome to get up each day and help people get over their potential death-sickness.

checked my Uni progress just now, no offer as yet hoping for 3rd Feb. still awaiting medical issues form, which would affect my 1994 yr12 highschool graduation TER score.

that was 71, would hope for a 10-15% increase but to be honest that was 17yrs ago, half my life has passed since, I cant see how its relevant at all.

checked my Stat test score as the result was posted on the uniweb last night, got top 91% out of over 6000 test sitters, 170 out of 200.

171 for verbal 169 for cognitive. Surprised verbal was above cognitive, was other way around in my prac tests.

happy that I made my goal of 85%; that is a distinct pass in my book ;) stoked actually as I was aiming for 85%, could not tell how I went and was fearing the worst.

hit my goal, exactly. felt that was my potential so Im gald to make it.

have a great aust.day everyone

Recipe for slow cooked duck? :whistling:

Go, on topic discussion!

rescued a 1day old duckling yesterday, parents gone, siblings eaten by a fox I presume

got it in the avery, for a month Id say, bought some 'duckling' food, mixing with breadcrumbs.

bowl of water with water grubs etc, seems to be having an ok time of it

let loose eventually on a private dam/lake, or roast?

jokes, will raise and let go

also, saw dr matty liptak again (ex crows afl player, shaun rehn and liptak were my fav players), went thru the MRI scans etc

got to go back in 4months after some intensive (free!!) physio and hydrotherapy. Had to pass on the physio for the past year as I couldnt afford to pay for it, bills and food, was an impossible situation. glad to have the offer of 'gold coin donation' hydrotherapy and free 2xweekly physio.

flip side, had a fair bit of cortisone injected into the knees.... 3rd night in a row I havent got more than 120mins sleep

Good luck with the career change :thumbsup: my missus sister works at Liverpool & Campelltown Hospital, doing this. Hugely challenging, but very rewarding for her.

Good on you.

well, a lady kindly turned across my lane and i was unable to avoid her in time.

took out the front left quarter and everything within about 30cm if it :(

lucky for me, it was the fiat. locally delivered etc. i think ill be scared of the repair bill for this lady!

Bugger. That's enough to ruin your day. I don't know how you city guys put up with driving around all the time, just inches away from some dill about to run into you.

However, you could do them a favour and offer to source the parts for the repair at a good price, if only you knew where a some spares were....:whistling:

    • Place the new daughterboard in the case and mount it using the 3 small black rivets provided, and reconnect the 3 factory ribbon cables to the new board Then, use the 3 piggyback cables from the daughterboard into the factory board on top (there are stand offs in the case to keep them apart. and remember to reconnect the antenna and rear cover fan wires. 1 screw to hold the motherboard in place. Before closing the case, make a hole in the sticker covering a hole in the case and run the cable for the android unit into the plug there. The video forgot this step, so did I, so will you probably. Then redo the 4 screws on back, 2 each top and bottom, 3 each side and put the 2 brackets back on.....all ready to go and not that tricky really.      
    • Onto the android unit. You need to remove the top screen because there is a daughterboard to put inside the case. Each side vent pops out from clips; start at the bottom and carefully remove upwards (use a trim remover tool to avoid breaking anything). Then the lower screen and controls come out, 4 screws, a couple of clips (including 3 flimsy ones at the top) and 3 plugs on the rear. Then the upper screen, 4 screws and a bunch of plugs and she is out. From there, remove the mounting brackets (2 screws each), 4 screws on the rear, 2 screws top and bottom and 3 screws holding in the small plates on each side. When you remove the back cover (tight fit), watch out for the power cable for the fan, I removed it so I could put the back aside. The mainboard is held in by 1 screw in the middle, 1 aerial at the top and 3 ribbon cables. If you've ever done any laptop stuff the ribbon cables are OK to work with, just pop up the retainer and they slide out. If you are not familiar just grab a 12 year old from an iphone factory, they will know how it works The case should now look like this:
    • Switching the console was tricky. First there were 6 screws to remove, and also the little adapter loom and its screws had to come out. Also don't forget to remove the 2 screws holding the central locking receiver. Then there are 4 clips on either side....these were very tight in this case and needed careful persuading with a long flat screw driver....some force required but not enough to break them...this was probably the fiddliest part of the whole job. In my case I needed both the wiring loom and the central locking receiver module to swap across to the new one. That was it for the console, so "assembly is the reverse of disassembly"
    • But first....while I was there, I also swapped across the centre console box for the other style where the AV inputs don't intrude into the (very limited !) space.  Part# was 96926-4GA0A, 284H3-4GA0B, 284H3-4GA0A. (I've already swapped the top 12v socket for a USB bulkhead in this pic, it fit the hole without modification:) Comparison of the 2: Basically to do the console you need to remove the DS and PS side console trim (they slide up and back, held in by clips only) Then remove the back half of the console top trim with the cupholders, pops up, all clips again but be careful at the front as it is pretty flimsy. Then slide the shifter boot down, remove the spring clip, loose it forever somewhere in the car the pull the shift knob off. Remove the tiny plastic piece on DS near "P" and use something thin and long (most screwdrivers won't fit) to push down the interlock and put the shifter down in D for space. There is one screw at the front, then the shifter surround and ashtray lift up. There are 3 or 4 plugs underneath and it is off. Next is the rear cover of the centre console; you need to open the console lid, pop off the trim covering the lid hinge and undo the 2rd screw from the driver's side (the rest all need to come out later so you can do them all now and remove the lid) Then the rear cover unclips (6 clips), start at the top with a trim tool pulling backwards. Once it is off there are 2 screws facing rearwards to remove (need a short phillips for these) and you are done with the rear of the console. There are 4 plugs at the A/V box to unclip Then there are 2 screws at the front of the console, and 2 clips (pull up and back) and the console will come out.
    • So, a bit of a side trip, but one that might be interesting for people with JDM cars and japanese head units. I know @Pac previously posted about a carplay/android auto adapter he installed which used the AUX input, and @V35_Paul put in one of the Tesla style units that replace both screens. The option I went with was a Lsait LLT-YF-VER5.87_2 (https://www.alibaba.com/product-detail/Lsailt-8GB-Android-Multimedia-Interface-for_1601187633672.html). Price was $1,150 for a single unit although they are much cheaper if you are willing to buy 2....$857ea. Make you you get the version 2 not version 1, it is faster and has a better UI - this is the manufacturer listing: http://www.lsailt.com/product/348.html. BTW if you've never bought from Alibaba before, don't be concerned....these guys can't stay in business unless they are responsive, ship fast etc, they were excellent (probably faster shipping than most local places) So, this was my task for a lazy Sat afternoon....looks complex but was all done in a few hours (it probably helps that I had some of it apart before so it was a bit familiar). I also decided to add a HD USB drive recorded at the same time and the unit also supports an aftermarket reverse cam (if you don't want to retain factory) and also AV in and HDMI out It looks much worse than it is, in fact in was genuinely all plug and play (no custom wiring at all). This video was pretty good (skipped a few steps), unfortunately they are an Aussie seller but no longer sell this unit (I guess Carplay/AA adapters are easier to install and much cheaper) https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=T5hJfYOB8Dg
