You sound like a very compassionate health worker :)

The guy I think you were referring to was Yul Brynner. He did those "Don't Smoke - Just Don't" Ads after his mate John Wayne died of lung cancer I think. Yul's costar in "The Magnificent Seven" Steve McQueen also died of smoking related cancer.

*Edit:- found it...

Melanoma (the most dangerous form of skin cancer) is making news.

Treatment:- Experimental drug by Merk labelled MK437 is causing advanced melanoma to shrink just about completely in approximately 50% of patients in a study. More of this drug is being requested to treat a larger sample of people whilst they don't have long to live as it is.

Preventative:- Still it's best to consider frequent application of the highest SP rated sunscreens, large brimmed hats, taking melatonin lozenges 5mg or higher each day, exposure to the sun to be minimised to morning and afternoons only for a maximum of an hour if you have fair skin or freckled skin.

Jai Taurima, Australia's silver medallist at the Sydney Olympic Games, had a daughter Indie Rose.

Jai and his partner Jen have just lost Indie Rose to acute lymphoblastic leukaemia.

She has died just a couple of days before her third birthday 22nd May.

Further research on leukaemia, lymphoma and multiple myeloma (all related cancers) is ongoing.

At the SAU.NSW Tech Arvo at Syriops Engineers, about 30 Members present were generous enough to donate around $300 to Bowel Cancer Aust.

I don't know the exact amount because it's still stuck in a tin that'll be opened by NYTSKY (Dave and his partner Anneke) > Bowel Cancer Aust.

Congrats heaps to the Members who dug deep - really deep!

    • I can get more photos of it here soon and I plan to make a thread detailing the process. I received the car this way and it sorely needs refinishing. That is probably the most appealing photo of it. Up close it is fading, cracked, and needs to be re-glued. Depending on their condition I'm on the fence between refinishing or making a new set.  Another angle hiding the pimples and razor pumps  
    • According to this thread the RS4V with build plate RC40 comes with the R200 diff @ 4.083 ratio as well (mine has said RC40 denotation). We may need to check if the axle stubs are the same pattern as well. The auto subframes have longer axles. However I think yours being a later Series 2 as well, we should have the same bolt pattern for the diff stubs. Unless your upgraded rear also has upgraded axles. Either way, I would not be opposed to pulling the covers to check so I can inspect that  fancy rear core  Also I don't have HICAS. I don't believe that should change things but I hope the people here with heaps more experience than me can correct me if I'm wrong   Let me know if you want to attempt to make this work and I can get some pictures of mine from under the car. 
    • It's not that straightforward. For example I have had this code because my ignitor/power transistor wires were unplugged. It knows something is wrong but has no idea what it means. If you want to actually diagnose this I recommend following the service manual flowchart for code 21. Ohm out the harness, coilpacks, inspect the ECU, etc. And again, it's entirely possible for there to be no problem at all but if you're running a different coilpack it'll trigger the code because it doesn't like what it sees.
    • If it (the code) wasn't still current, it should have gone away by itself by now. No, nothing it 10/10. But it is quite likely. Everything else to do with the ignition could still be responsible (which is wires and connectors). The car is an old piece of shit now, so all the wires and connectors are also old pieces of shit.
