Har har mishtar Marc.

I'm as fresh as fresh can be. Soft as a baby's bottom.

I might go do my nails before they fall off. Then I'll go make andrew and I some breakfast of ham and potatoe salad sammiges. In between then, when andrew gets out of the shower, I'll go wash his clothes.

I reckon it would be easier to be at work :S

Oh yeah? It's... it's... ok yes it's boring. It won't be later if it rains though, the front tyre on my bike is starting to look like a slick. Eeek.

Did you geys get any hail the other day? SE Qlders only, before people from *cough* WA start commenting :)

Living at Cyrus' place during the week, I only head back home to Ippy for weekends. I was riding from Ipswich to Toowoomba and back every day for about 6 weeks... that sucked. It was comfortable enough, it just cost me a fortune in servicing and tyres :)

You bought a bike didn't you? Whadja get?

On another note I had a 10kg ham in the bag on the back of the bike, along with all my other crap, would have been 25kg hanging riiight over the back. Keeping the front wheel on the ground coming out of the tolls was a mission, so I didn't bother trying at the second one :) Considering I am quite possibly the worst wheelier in the universe, I was quite impressed with my ~100m effort :D

KR1S, nice! Looks very tidy. The son doesn't look too comfortable though :)

100m is very unusual for me, I normally struggle to get the wheel off the ground at all, I'm just too much of a wuss, though I think that's the main thing that's kept it rubber side down for so long. It's bloody irritating actually, my brother jumps on my bike (he has an R6) and pops monos and goes through 1st, 2nd, 3rd... bastard. The bike sure as hell doesn't have a problem, I just can't seem to twist the throttle far enough, my brain just won't let me. Damn.

My brother's race bike (CBR250) revs to 19k, it sounds like a mosquito, it's such a laugh to ride :D Even the R6 revs to 15.5k, it screams. Mine only goes to 12k but has about ten times as much mid range torque as the 6, which is just as well, cos I'm not exactly anorexic!! :D

Haha Will, nice one :) My soon-to-be sister in law's Charade doesn't have a tacho but the poor little thing sounds like it's going to blow up, it's probably doing those sorts of revs too! It'd be nowhere near as quick as the 'cino though...

Did you geys get any hail the other day? SE Qlders only, before people from *cough* WA start commenting :)

What Hail :D ?

See ya got a CBR in ya sig ...... my housemate has a 250 ..... ive chopped it :kick: so now he's desperately saving for a bigger bike haha

    • Hi guys, long time no post as per usual! It's been a busy year so far, the biggest thing being a new job.  After 28 years in the automotive industry I decided it was time for a change.  I was losing faith in the industry and where it's heading.  Now in a completely different industry (electrical) working for a company that manufacture water pump contollers.  Not as sexy as cars but it's an interesting,  challenging industry. I now don't work Saturdays which is a bonus!  It's still 50-55 hours a week but having Saturdays ack after 28 years of working them is awesome!   No news on the GT-R but i did decide to add some more JDM goodness into my life....           1990 300 ZX.  She's not perfect but for a 35 year old car she ain't bad!  Just going to tidy it up a bit and enjoy it.  It's currently auto but will start stockpiling everything for a manual swap. It WILL distract me even further from the GT-R but im hoping not for too long! It somewhat proves a 6'8" freak can fit in a 300 ZX.  Sort of...  I drove it home from the previous owners house in Melbourne via Black Spur and Merton Gap (2 awesome bits of Victorian twisty road) and it was amazing!  Handles so well!!!   I don't think it would be worthy of a full build page but I'll post up some of the upgrades here if anyone is interested?  Cheers guys!
    • End game is to: - Remove all the slop from old worn parts - Adjust setup so that the wheels actually fit and the car is drivable (currently it is not because of the extreme rubbing on the guards).   Progress over the last couple of days, removed the rear hubs! Next steps: - Buy bushings - Replace bushings/bearings on hub - Reinstall
    • Cracked deck  And other cam snap stuff   
    • A few random issues have popped up since my last update. My WMI pressure sensor failed within about 10 minutes of it seeing liquid. It was a 20$ China special, so I'm not surprised. My name brand replacement should arrive today.  My power steering assist also decided to crap out last weekend. The usual, works for about 60 seconds after starting the car then I lose it. I dusted off my old copy of NDS and connected to the HICAS ECU. Code 4 for assist solenoid.... I tested the solenoid and it's fine.  I knew the day where my HICAS ecu would crap out would come, and I welcome it. It was the last HICAS part on the car that is now in the bin. I've ordered an SSR and I will control the power steering solenoid with my Haltech ecu. It will be nice to have proper speed referenced assist again after all these years.
