^^^ and he is dead right.

Funny (well ironic) thing in this whole debate, is that you all won't see the truth until it is way too late and you are burning in hell. It is all well and good for you not to have faith and think that when you die the lights go out and that is it. But for the rest of eternity you are going to regret your short sighted decision.

So you had better live life to the fullest while you are here. Your time here on earth is very short compared to the afterlife.

So I will throw the question askers a return question about the Bible, the foundation of Christian faith - if there is no God and it is all made up, can you then honestly maintain that the Bibile is all made up? Historically documented from various sources, with multiple people telling the same stories from different perspectives and persuasions, collated over centuries. Did someone just make up the whole thing and it suddenly became fact?

Everyone has their beliefs and they'll tell you there opinion till the blue in the face.

I'm athiest and the more people talk about religion and there beliefs it make me glad to be one. I call it realist - I can't see it or evidence then its never happened. As Heslo said if there was a higher power then why would HE create disabilities? Why would he not want us all to be equal (gay rights) and why would he take loved ones with the kindest hearts way before there time?

^^^ you need to take those issues up with the devil.

And you will find that the VAST majority of people born with disabilities are born to parents with addictions or bad practices during pregnancy. Fact. Humans are inherenlty evil and bring it on themselves. Again, the devil.

First off, I'm not having a go so don't take it the wrong way, but I'm happy to cop it if I'm wrong in any way.

Do you really think that the world is only 5,000 years old, Andrew?

Even with all the proof to back it up?

Also, with the historical documents. There's no proof to back those up either so I wont start a shit fight over it. All I really know is, scientists have proven earth has been around for 5 billion years, thus disproving the bibles 5,000 year old theory.

Evolution is happening right now, animals, humans, bacteria, yeast ( viruses aren't classified as life). Go looking, and you will find it. Easy not to find stuff, if you don't want to find it, yet I am quite happy to have the truth the sphincter of the universe slapped across my face once it's finally found.

Just like Scientology though, someone made that up, yet some people now are calling it fact and it's only new!

Kye I'm not 100% sure on this but I think there's no reference to how old the earth is in the bible just creation being 6000 years old

Carbon dating by the way has fallen over itself that many times it's not funny. ie. I've heard of bones being discovered that were supposed to be 100 million years old and they turned out to be Mavis's dog that was buried 12 years ago.....lots of shit like that.

Either way guys, there doesn't seem to be enough evidence either way and both systems require a level of faith

Damo is right - it is an argument that can't be won.

But regarding the earth's age - number one fact is that carbon dating has now been found to be completely unreliable. But more importantly; don't you think that a deity capable of creating the Earth and mankind can put fossils (and whatever the heck he likes) in the ground and make them seem any age? Maybe he did it to test people's faith. Maybe he did it so we would have a fuel source. There are millions of maybes.

Fact is that I believe in a higher power, and that those who don't will be summarily dealt with - either at their death or on judement day. If I were a non-believer I would hope that judgement day is not too far off!

And I understand that there are plenty of loonies that preach in the name of all sorts of deities (read: scientologists), and it is easy to discredit religion if that is your aim. Fact is, if you haven't been baptised (and I am guessing that most of you haven't been), then you are controlled by the devil anyhow. It is amazing what he makes people say, believe and do. Believe it or not, it makes no difference to me.

My belief: I live and will die a Christian, and will be going to heaven. Those who don't will live eternity in hellfire. Fullstop.

Fact. Humans are inherenlty evil and bring it on themselves. Again, the devil.

Btw a religion that teaches that is f**king retarded IMO. All it serves is to aid a small group maintain power over the masses. "Do as we say or burn forever!"

debate about religion is never ending. As long as we live together in

harmony, treat each other with respect, we will all learn to get along

just fine :D

The one thing I have to love about religion and those that believe is there always wanting to preech there opinions onto others, athiest on the other hand have to listen to others beliefs about death beds and afterlife, and how those that dont bow down to the son of rajab will suffer.

Was never baptisted and don't believe in any religion what so ever.

Nah thats not true, not everyone who has a faith tries to shove it down others throats. Its like saying that everyone who has an import, street races and drifts in the suburbs.

90% of the time, your faith is determined by how you were brought up.

AtheistLabels.jpg

Whether we want to realise it, we were all born atheists. It's upbringing, parental influences and culture that turn people into believers.

I have no problem with christians, they're welcome to believe whatever they want. I'll continue to question everything, and always look for answers.

AGREE!

Maybe he should have just put Bp98 everywhere instead of making us dig km's underground for it! :rofl:

But seriously, no I don't believe that someone just put them there. Just seems way to farfeched to even fathom the thought after all the study that I've done for my field of work. I'm no expert and I'm still learning but even the basics tell you otherwise.

I have been baptised and went to a religous school and I wasn't trying to discredit anything.

    • GCG is a good company, they're a major distributor for Garrett in Japan as well.
    • Nah, OEM washer bottle and brake fluid reservoirs are fine I don't know what it is with the plastic that Mazda used, some plastics, like the washer bottle and brake fluid res are fine, and still look new after 20 years use, where as the coolant expansion tank, and PS reservoir, that I replaced with new OEM items when I first got the car, turned yellow and started getting brittle a few years later If the dirty yellow stained plastics didn't trigger me there wouldn't be an issue, but they did, much like the battery bracket....... Meh As for going back to work full time to support car stuff, nope, why, because I own a Mazda NC MX5, not a Nissan R series Skyline 🤣
    • I've never heard of CJ-motor, so can't advise you on them. I'd just go straight to GCG for a GCG highflow though. Seems no point to use a middleman. I'm somewhat surprised that the price on the CJ site is lower than the GCG retail price. Even though CJ would get a discount of some sort, you would hardly expect them to give up so much margin. Maybe the price is out of date? Having said that "I'd go to GCG"...when I did my highflow, I went to Hypergear. I did this https://hypergearturbos.com/product/rb25dethighflow/#tab-dyno-results with the R34 OP6 450HP profile. With the BB centre (extra $400) and intially with the standard boost actuator, but I eventually got him to send me the high pressure one when I got to the point of being able to actually use it. Ends up costing the same sort of money as the GCG highflow, but this is, of course, the turbo that I KNOW has a shorter length core and so moves the comp cover rearwards. The GCG apparently doesn't do that. My mechanic also swears by the GCG highflow, given that we have another turbo rebuilder who does something essentialy the same as theirs, using Garrett wheels. He says it stands up at really low revs and makes good power. I haven't pushed my HG highflow past ~240-250rwkW yet (should have a little more in it, but unclear how much) and it does have a fairly gentle boost ramp. OK, it's much better now that I have gotten my boost controller tuned up on it.  A lot of my earlier unhappiness was because I couldn't keep the wastegate flap as closed as it needed to be (including some mechanical issues). I'd still prefer it to boost up nearly as quickly as the stocker, and it certainly a bit slower than that. So maybe the GCG one is worth the first look (for you).
    • Ok thanks 🙂 I will higly consider this. Any "known" company for a good reviews and experience to send that off? Is that CJ-motor good one? Or go straight to GCG site? I need to use VPN to even find some of those "shops" let alone access them 🙂 
    • You can literally put in as much WMI as it takes to quench the combustion totally (and then back it off a little, obviously), and it will keep making more and more power. The power comes from the cooling effect of the water (and the meth) and the extra fuel (the meth, which also has massive octane). It is effectively exactly like running E85. One might be slightly better than the other, but they are damn close. But with either you can lean on the boost or the timing (or both) waaaay more than with just petrol and the results are similar. Here's the first thing I googled for an anecdotal bit of evidence. Can't access the attachment without being a gold member, but it is there for the getting if able to, or searched up elsewise perhaps. https://www.hpacademy.com/forum/general-tuning-discussion/show/wmi-vs-e85/
