man i just got home from work, the roads near my work are flooding!! you know the hope island road smoothline? they really ****ed that road up as it has no drainage, but this old 4wd subie im driving atm cant even break traction in the rain lol.

Work was so boring i was just eating my stock all night and listening to mp3s heh.

lol - i remember them saying in the Gold Coast news as well "it doesn't rain enough and it doesn't happen enough to warrant a significant upgrade". Bet you the guys cleaning out there houses for the 2nd time in 3 weeks wouldn't be thinking that! Gotta watch these new estates.. most are built on existing swap land. Thats why its so flat :(

nismogirl: i don't even want to know why you wet your bed... :)

Yeah, its funny how the can put a new pole up in 48 hours after i take it out, but they cant put one drain in that section... lame

Its actually only meant to be a temporary section of road. In the next few months when the hope island canals are finished that section will be a bridge coming up to the round about... only 6 years late, but hey thats the state government!

yeah.. another boring friday night.. too much rain.. hmm -- well my car alarm has gone off 4 times tonight.. quite the record. Gotta love buzz boxes and their buzzy exhausts driving past!

hows the new monitor?? me gotta get myself one of dems LCD's soon :)

Those Aopen cube boxes are cool too.. think I might get one of them as well. The total miniPC!

its good. wanted to get the BenQ LCD that was recommended by Chris and got the Samsung 153V instead. I never realised that i had so much room on my table now :) been playing plenty of Warcraft on it.

how's work at GC Umart?

lol.. only had 1 day so far.. hopefully more days next week... chris :):D

yup, desk space is a big advantage of the LCDs, and look so much better.. The main advantage the BenQ units have over some of the other brands is the higher refresh rate at a cheaper price. But might not be noticeable anyhow.

I want to get one of the 17" that can be wall mounted. Not sure how I can go about fitting it on the wall though so the cables don't dangle down. Not sure whether the guy who I share with would appreciate if i cut a big hole in the wall either :(

    • Have a vb in honour of the car comming back
    • It was a great, but typical track day, and some VB was ingested at the night time debrief 🤪
    • And so, to round this out, I couldn't be happier to confirm @MBS206 has decided to buy the car. He drove down from sunny QLD with a trailer last week and it is off to its new home today. I'll let Matt confirm on next steps but I understand broadly that the plan is to leave it pretty much as is, and just get some quality wheel time with a nicely balanced car that is pretty much track ready. There are a few a jobs still to be done first but nothing too major and I think its a very smart buy Dinner last night at the Paragon with a round of VBs (mostly) for Neil
    • Well, 50 pages and the end of a chapter for this car. We took it out for a shakedown at Wakie yesterday, and everything went well. There were a couple of niggles: - Oil cooler fitting leak - tightened, cleaned, stopped leaking - Radiator cap overflow fitting was leaking....Mark called it, the overflow fitting was threaded in and not tight....tightened, tested and held pressure - Small oil leak at the rear of the block, probably the turbo oil feed - too hot to get at it comfortably but probably just needs to be nipped up - leak at the driver's side rear brake line where it meets the hardline. Fitting wasn't loose, so Matt backed it off and back on, no further leaks - there's also a leak somewhere on the top of the fuel tank, maybe that cross over fuel line - that was has been left to fix when its on a hoist Otherwise than those niggles the car went great, turned great and stopped great so it was a very successful day out. I'm always really nervous when a car first hits the track after a long break, especially with a brand new engine as well but it was great. VID-20251011-WA0007.mp4  Big thanks to @The Bogan who dropped by and helped out, @MBS206 and my nephew Lachlan the apprentice.  Neil's wife Mel also surprised the hell out of all of us by dropping by; she's up in Tamworth these days but was travelling to Melbourne so had plausible deniability for turning up at the garage, it was great to see her but also obviously a bit sad all round.
