voted below the line earlier. was like doing an exam: you know the answer is 97, but coudnt find where the other 5 numbers had gone... even after a few revisions and a bit of scribbling, still couldnt locate the last 2.

Lumbar puncture results are in... Not what we wanted to see and I'll probably be in hospital for another 2 weeks minimum and another 2 lumbar punctures. Pressure in my spine has dropped but is still over double what it should be and white blood cells have doubled since last lumbar puncture, where they were already too high.

Starting to really play on my mind now which is why I'm talking about it.

On the plus side my private room balls harder than jay-z's bank account so at least that's something :/

Oh and in reference to the dog vs cat discussion we had a couple years back, my dog has sat on the top of the couch looking out the window waiting for me all day and all night for the last 2 weeks.

Every. Single. Day.

Stick that in your cat and smoke it

We still can't find the cause. It's most likely to be a virus we don't have a test for yet. And there is no prevention possible.

Leading theory is I was near some asshole that sneezed and caught it that way however the virus made its way into my spine/brain somehow. This happens fairly often (meningitis) however I copped the less common meningoenciphilitis which is of course worse.

you need to do a john farnham and take the pressure down.

Clearly... I'm on altitude sickness drugs (diamox) for that and we have remove a LOT through lumbar punctures.

I dunno, I don't mind cats at all, they smell less, break less of your shit and kinda look after themselves...

Probably best not to ask Alvin, Jonoe, Tony, etc which they prefer...

What would be the rough cost of re-spraying my front bar if I remove it and disassemble my self? In northern suburbs - any suggestions?

Problem is if it's off the car, they'll have trouble color matching and blending to make it look right :/ If you don't mind, and provide them with the paint codes, I dunno maybe $3-400?

Are you capable of prepping the bar yourself? Sanding, Primer, etc? 75% of the work is in the prep...

Good point, I didn't think they'd have to really blend considering it's a different panel. I guess I'd just take the whole car in, I just don't trust some of the shops around here a)working on my car b)having access to the keys/alarm/etc for "later use" :/

    • A few suggestions: Do you have the option of retarding your exhaust cam gear to bring the power band over to the left? VCT would be turned off after you make peak torque, you see the power/torque will decay faster with it left on all the way to the limiter Once VCT is turned off, you'll find the motor will take a bit more timing being ramped in Send its mum, more boost! Of course, depends on your exhaust pressure.

    • I was back on the dyno again yesterday after completely revamping my methanol injection system. I was making 440kw at 19psi. Great, this is more then I was making last summer with my old meth system at that pressure, and I figured it would be smooth sailing up to 30+psi. We continued increasing from there and by 25psi, I had only hit 455kw. Dyno sadly lost utility power at this point and I left. We seemed to be on course to hit the same power wall as last summer (477kw@27psi). This is a built RB25 S1 stroked to a 2.8. Built and ported head with Kelford 272/262 cams. Precision 6466 Turbo. Tuner last year believed the power wall is a mix of RPM limitations (Hydro lifters/Limit set at 7600RPM) and fueling. With my new meth system, we're seeing zero knock now but it still won't go up.  What else can I do at this point? Here's my train of thought.  - It's clear from the dyno graph that I would easily make power to 8500+RPM but I'm limited to 7600RPM. I could risk increasing my limiter, but hydro lifters have me worried. What are my options here besides going NEO head or solid lifter conversion? I'm rocking a 1.05AR turbine on my 6466. Would dropping down to a .84 help shift that power down in anyway? - We're only seeing roughly a 30kw difference at the top end with VCT on or off. Is this normal? I want to confirm VCT is working properly. - Should I look into other cam options?  - Should I just keep increasing boost and see if she wakes up later on? I would expect to hit 600rwkw around 35psi with my 6466.   
    • First thought is to use a ram mount (to hold the ipad) + windscreen suction mount. The arms on the ram mount can be as long as you like, should be able to position the ipad pretty well with that setup.
