unfortunately I don't have $2 mil odd to spend on my hobby :/

Could always sell your first born

yeah that's what one of my mates does,

He drove to darwin once and outback QLD about 6 times last year as well as NSW and such.

unless he has back to back jobs drives every-where, big Diesel 4x4 with cruise would make it relaxed.

only flys when it OS even then I recon he would prefer to tow a tinny and risk it.

So if work get their way

in next 6 months will be doing

USA

greece

Kuwait

Germany

Germany second time

finish just in time for honey moon to europe.

that said think Kuwait won't happen...well hoping.

I wanna a go in jetski.

+1

they disturbed a LOT of people last night

+1

Picked up my missus and rushed to St Kilda sat by the bay with heaps other people. Was contemplating whether to get ice-cream but was scared that we'll miss it. Waiting, waiting, waiting, waiting, waiting........ waits and then decides to check fb and saw the cancellation.

Not happy Jane! But ice-cream and seeing the penguins made up for it. lol

Lol

Thanks everyone for the Wedding Congrats

Here's a proper video of the day:

Awesome video. Outstanding effort to get it all shot and editted in one day. They even included reception footage before showing the final video 1hr later!

I like the bit where my r32 is visible in the background :D

they disturbed a LOT of people last night

was meant to be a c130 doing a fly over on stkilda beach releasing angel flares:

however at the absoulte last miute they post someting on their facebook page saying that there has been a technical difficulty with the plane and that anoter c130 could not be organised, but if you wanted to see it then just go to the airshow.

what do we have like 1 c130 in vic and that's it?

IMHO it was a stunt designed to get people to pay to go to the airshow and was never going to happen.

I'd bet they never even got the appropriate permission to deploy the flares

Interesting theory.

Were you waiting for it too? Got to the end of the pier before we'd heard theyd cancelled. Everyone just sat around to enjoy the scenery anyway, and it was an amazing sunset.

Some navy dude was sent out to tell us it had been canned, and said the plane had taken off, they noticed something not right, landed and had a look and apparently it was much worse than they thought. (doesnt make sense choronologically, but whatever)

I reckon its funny because it highlights the lack of maintenance and tight-budget priorities of the defence forces you hear about. and also that it was supposed to be a celebration of the longest service record of any aircraft in RAAF history, is that a good thing? lol

I wouldn't say no to a free plane / boat / jetski

screw buying one you'd use it like 3 times a year, give me a dirt bike instead :D

birds get a dirt bike and all your jetski faggotness will disapear, real men crash on dirt not on water :D

don't get me wrong, they're okay.. but how much bang for buck do you really get out of them? can't see them being used much here in melbournes shitty weather..

Shitty weather? You scared of getting wet on a jetski? Better get the rust proofing paint if you ever buy one :P

    • Possibly avoid using a Cometic one unless the deck/head surface are perfectly flat. I did have a look just then and forgiving gaskets such as Tomei or Nitto don't exist for the FJ20, however the Bar-Tek or Kameari ones look good and might do the trick.
    • Because pipe threads for pipe things. M threads for bolt things. Throw some teflon sealant onto it and dust your hands off knowing you did the right thing, instead of going twice around the block to achieve a result using the wrong things. Of course, all of these solutions are ignoring the fact that the minimum thread pitch we're talking about here is 1.25mm, with the 1/4" in NPT or BPS being out around 1.4mm. You will need to know that the boss you're tapping has enough thickness for at least a few threads. That's one of the reasons that 1/8" is commonly used - because the pitch is <1mm. And why would you look to use 1/4" NPT in a BSP country anyway? Ugh.
    • Just throwing around ideas, does it need to be in the compressor cover? Why not the hot side piping?
    • 1/8NPT drill size = 8.7mm. Since the hole got messed up by me, it’s probably around 9mm.    So 1/4” NPT would be next step. A drill size of around 11mm would be preferred there which is not way of my M12 (drill 10.5mm and tap M12 threads)
