RIP Jay. That's really sad. Sorry she couldn't beat the battle. I hope yourself and your family are fine.

Thanks for your thoughts. We are getting there slowly. I've been taking everyone out to get out the house and stop minds from dwelling. It's one of those things that will just take time.

Some pics from the past few days...

Nearly gave up on the 365 day project. Took this shot while feeling unmotivated and the family said it shows pretty much how they feel at the moment.

Took the kids out to see the 'pretty paintings' so got to get some nice pics of graff for the first time in the past couple of months.

Took this one today while checking up on one of the hotspots near my place. Nothing new there, but spotted this can on the way back to the car.

Yeah, condolences from me too, Jay. It's like you said, though: with a terminal (and often painful) illness, it's a mixed blessing between ending the pain and the ending of a life. :(

tags are those scribbles done mostly by toys with no talent, lol.

So true. Tags are hideous and looks like shit. Imo they ruin the look of the city, where as "pieces" have their spots and actually look awesome!

Just got back from a short holiday, will upload some shots then post them up here shortly :)

These were taken at Bremer Bay, on the south coast of WA, 2hrs east of Albany. My parents manage a caravan park there, so went down for Xmas and to recover from my wisdom teeth operation. Beautiful area, shame its so far away and they are leaving soon.

Merry christmas to all! I hope you had a fantastic christmas and the fat man gave you lots of love (of course if you give him love, he'll reward you with an elf).

Project 365 for the last week. You can even see the R33 i picked up as a drifter for $3500!

PS - If you haven't, get girltalks new album "All day". It's awesome! Thank me later.

    • Reading through the engine service manual their advice is do a cylinder balance test. Unplug one injector at a time and see if the idle drops a consistent RPM. You can also do this using a Consult cable which is easier. They also call for unplugging the power transistor, then with the engine off and the fuel rail unhooked from the manifold verifying that you have good fuel flow (even injection, no dripping/leaks, etc) when you twist the CAS by hand. Also verify the spark by pulling the spark plugs and allowing the plugs to ground and turning the CAS by hand. I would also start doing the sensor checks and idle valve checks in service manual. Make sure the MAF tests reasonably, the intake air regulator is sane, etc. You may have to get new spark plugs.
    • This sounds very old of me, however since buying the Tiguan shit box, my view on shit boxes have changed.
    • I've looked up the parts number (41011AL501). It's around $700 OEM. Usually our Infiniti G35 here in Canada have interchangeable parts with my Stagea but the parts number are not the same. I have looked around and it seems the JDM 2005 V35 Skyline (which is the same as our G35) has the same caliper but I cannot confirm. And I can't find a repair kit. The inner brake pads drags on the rotor, seems to be rusty piston. Thanks for the info by the way
    • This coupled with 6-9 speed autos with ridiculously short gearing is why these modern shitbox cars always seem so fast off the line. If it wasn't for those things, Raptors would not seem fast. The problem we have is there is a driveability gap between a more gentle take off and a wheelspinning sideways launch. The difference between ankle flex required to achieve one and ankle flex required to achieve the other is about 0.5°.
    • Yeah I think I'm also with the opposite here. It's 'hard to keep up with traffic' because in the real world I'm accelerating with 15% throttle and they are pinning it. It feels like I'm being an overt dickhead at anything above 15% throttle, so the car sounds like I'm being an overt dickhead to keep up with/get ahead of traffic when I'm really just trying to drive with traffic. There would be no issue 'keeping up with traffic' if we used the same level of throttle input/aggression to drive around. People really do just drive around with their foot nearly pinned in econoboxes.
