I was messing around with my trip meter and my finger slipped off the button, banging the cluster cover. This impact caused the globe in the odo to come back on, when I thought it was dead. Minor victories.

Hamish, I'm not a whiskey drinker. Recommend some to me?

I like dimple 15 but for the same money I prefer Glenlivet 12

if you want to start, minimum spend on a drinkable whiskey is ~$50

for a beginners scotch @ $50 you can usually get glenlivet 12, glenfiddich 12, dimple 15, balantynes 12, or chivas regal 12 - any of these are very approachable drams

If you are happy to spend the coin I would say the best one to start on would be Glenmorangie 10 year which will run you about $65

best value would be JW black for $38 @ dan's but this is a) not as nice as the above b) much peatier, which is not as beginner friendly

V lounge in Perth.

This flight qualifies me to platinum woo~ :)

strange I thought the V domestic lounges were meant to be better than the Q ones,

that said I have been told the lounges in Perth are not as good due to nearly everyone having access (FIFO perks) that they cheapened them down.

you lost or Leesh?

Ants pls

If only general knowledge could be translated into something useful and advantageous beyond cleaning up at trivia nights and going home with bottles of Johnny red and outdated street directories as prizes

    • Hi, wondering if the HKS bar and water reservoir still available? Thanks 
    • What an awesome idea to fit the facelift Lamborghini Diablo headlights. They are a perfect fit!
    • An update regarding the registration with the DVLA I sent off the paperwork the day after I collected the car from the port, two weeks later it was all returned with a letter explaining they have rejected the application. This was because the cheque was £20 short for the road tax (I used a price list I found online). Nevermind it is what it is, it was sent back to them the following day with a new cheque. Fast forward another 2 weeks or so, I called them for an update to be told it had been rejected. Yesterday (16th September) I received the documents back along with another letter, this time it was because I didn't put an X in one box on the V750 (personalised number plate certificate), which declared that I had the rights to the personalised number plate. Why this wasn't mentioned in the first rejection letter, I don't know, but it could have saved this headache. The documents were sent back today, so fingers crossed third times a charm and it'll FINALLY be registered on the road just in time for the bad weather (woohoo!) To cheer myself up I lowered the front 25mm, was sick of seeing it sit like a monster truck. No idea how much clearance I'll have getting on and off the driveway, I'll worry about that when I can actually drive it
    • You're going to miss not worrying about rust in the strut towers like the Skyline shitboxes out there
    • A few little updates that weren't filmed due to not taking long to do or not interesting enough for their own video. My new K&N Air Filter arrived, I went with an RU-4180 which matched the dimensions of the universal cone filter the car originally had.  The battery had gone flat, while that was charging I tidied up the spaghetti wiring at the bulk head and down the sides of the engine Next job was to swap the stereo The Kenwood harness had the female ISO plugs cut off and the male ISO plugs cut off the adaptor loom and joined with bullet connectors. I ordered in a repair loom through work and re-did it all. New Kenwood unit installed (Android Auto, DAB, Bluetooth, Reverse Camera) The bonnet/hood gas struts have been poor since collecting the car. I couldn't find any suitable replacements locally so took a chance on a pair from AliExpress.  The originals don't use a retaining clip to secure the cup onto the ball fixture, would explain why I struggled for 10-15mins trying to pry off the cups. The ball fixtures unscrew using a 12mm spanner, new ones are the same size. Sadly no photo of them fitted, you're not missing much lol The dished Momo steering wheel got replaced with my Momo Tuner, turns out I ordered counter sunk bolts for the horn trim ring (like they normally are for the steering wheel) instead of allen cap (flat seat)  A terrible photo of a Quaife style gear shift knob I've had stashed in my tool box for many years after purchasing the incorrect thread size (I can see a pattern emerging with ordering incorrect parts...) Also threw in a cup holder and a (empty) Boss Coffee can, because why not
