I did something similar.

I quit my job on the spot after a fight with my supervisor. Sold both my cars, and lived off my savings which was my house deposit to go and study full time.

I was that motivated to do well and stick it to my bosses and also because I was running out of money and didn't live at home.

Ended up securing a job on oil rigs before finishing my studies by being hand picked from my class.

Now earning at least double what my old boss does and I was quite happy to let him know when I went in to visit the guys I worked with.

If you're motivated, you'll be fine!

After just getting mine back after 7.5 months apart, every single moment I spend in the car I have a huge smile on my face. It's awesome.

I'm really looking forward to getting the parts I've bought over the last few months into it (alloy radiator, oil cooler, nismo short-shift, nismo dash, nismo injectors, etc).

Unfortunately, I also need to re-build my custom amplifier shelf which was destroyed in the crash, put all my amplifiers, carpc, sound processor back in and the big one -- re-sound deaden the boot. Can't believe of all things, I lost all my sound deadening because because they replaced nearly the entire rear of the car.

After having completed the boot lid today in Dynamat, I gotta say I'm not looking forward to the rest. Too much like hard work, especially when my back is still in pain.

Okay after the previous conversations in here, this is unexpected..

SYDNEY (AP) — Australia’s ruling party voted Saturday to endorse same-sex marriage, a reversal of its long-standing position that has little practical effect on the chance of gay marriage being legalized in the country.

sad day for Australia

in your humble opinion.

I happen to be happy about this.

Seriously. If you (christians/muslims/whatever religion) wanna make marriage sacred, ban divorce. So sick of hearing the religious saying that gay marriage cheapens hetero marriage. Hate to break it to ya, but bogans have been cheapening the sacrament for the last 50 years dawg, so don't get angry when "homos and lezos" wanna get jiggy with it. If it makes you happy, it can't be that bad. And any son of a bitch who is so pre-occupied with the doings of other people (preference regardless) needs to get a life.

Live your own life, with the freedom that this society grants you. Don't get so self righteous that you're gonna tell any other person how to live their life, especially when it doesn't affect you. Respect each other, and each others freedom to chose their own destiny. You would expect such honor yourself..

I love vagina, but I'll represent all of my queer mates even if it ain't popular...

+1 labor. Seems like they got it right for a change. IMHO.

    • I wasn’t able to replicate the sound anymore. It was a one time sound so maybe it was just coincidence but it was like small pebbles being dropped in a coke can.   should I try cleaning the MAF? It could be it’s functioning but dirty? I don’t know.
    • Update 4: Hi all. The car drives again! Haven't driven for long, only to store it in the garage again, but the test drive was successful. The coolant and oil leaks seem to be fixed for now. Temps on the engine were also very good, while moving I never even saw 80C water during the approx. 30 minute drive. Ate up all the coolant in the reservoir though so will have to fill that even more when I go to the car next time. One thing that pisses me off is that the RPM gauge is still f**ked, I even resoldered the board twice and used copper paste on the silly screws that are used as connections. Next time I take it out I'll take apart the board and fit new components, I'll see if I can get a replacement IC for it.  I have an appointment set for 22nd of September for the engine tune to 370hp. Alignment also still needs to be done. My hope is that I can get all the legal stuff over with by the end of this season. Anyone of you have advice regarding intercoolers? Currently there is an APEXI core fitted, one of those weird hybrid ones, 600x270x76. I don't think it's bad but it's not new and now I still have the chance to change it now to legally include it in the paperwork. Only issue is that the only options that would arrive in time are a HKS Type R intercooler or generic Ebay spec intercoolers comparable to a JustJap one. Ideally I'd order a Plazmaman but it takes over a month to receive which would mean making the car legal has to wait until next season. Would love to hear some input on this. Same story for my injectors, the previous owner was a nunce and put ID 1050x on the engine. They work but are obviously not ideal at "normal" power levels. But I don't see a reason to change them unless the tuner says it's necessary. I read online before buying a different exhaust that the top secret style rear diffusers won't fit due to the size of the rear resonators. My buddy and I made it work by slightly "adjusting the shape" of the mounting bracket and making some spacers out of 3d print for the mounting bolts. Fits like a charm. Just putting this here in case someone has this problem. Even the hefty HKS Silent Hi Power rear can fits without hitting anything.
    • Well they got my money but they are not getting my gearbox ! 
    • It's needed for rolling idle up, and I think it is a decider on VCT also.
    • I mean, not really. Link ECU's can absolutely still have errors from the ECU thinking it's getting a sensor it's not expecting. I would imagine the speed at the ECU level in Nistune does absolutely nothing anyway? I assume the ECU does not do any fancy TC stuff with regards to front+rear wheel speed or anything of that like anyway. Someone who uses Nistune may be more fluent in it.
