yes, it was behind me... while I was at the lights waiting to turn right...
he got sick of waiting and decided to go straight....

amazing to hear and see sooo much metal move so fast

Thanks, will probably give the Glenmorangie a try. Best way of drinking it? On the rocks?

With your mouth usually works best

Incorrect.

They EARN more money than most people in there, then spend it on a maloo, a jetski, a dirt bike, piss and hookers and then leave the mines with nothing to show for their wasted years :P

Nothing to show apart from the $80k+ car, the $20k+ jet ski, $10k dirt bike and a good time....

And they won't care, because they can afford it all without having to finance any of it...

pretty much, although you'd be surprised how often they finance it anyway lol

Ideally you would work FIFO, be a tight ass and not spend your weekends drinking overpriced piss, living cheaply in Perth without impulse buying shit you don't need including koi tats / brand new air con compressors, and saving up for a few years before moving back to civilization and work another career path, post-mining boom, with a comfortable nest egg.

Ideally...

    • Ha, I've never pressed the X in all these years incase it removed the notification for all Admins
    • I don't know, I've never done it that way, but 1. While it is an interference engine, there is still clearance between the valves and the piston at all points in the regular timing cycle 2. There is not a lot of distance before you can't catch the top of the valve stem any more I don't know if 2 is greater or less than 1. But 3. If it doesn't work out you are f**ked, engine is coming out to disassemble so it is a big bet.
    • Semi slicks are horrible for road use, just use a high performance road tyre unless you really need the maximum grip. Noisy, unpredictable (amazing, until they are not), expensive due to very high wear and not good in cold and particular wet. And yes, it is a thing to store cars on stands instead of tyres if you know they are going to be parked up long term.....but who ever realises that a short park is going to stretch into years before it is out again!
    • I know in Australia you'll definitely get above 30c. Parked in the shade in Summer you'll be above that. 😛 But in cooler climates, you might get that warm driving on the highway for a bit, but you'd never get to full heat temp. I'll try and find some of my historical tyre temps between Aus summer and winter (be aware immin the warmer area of Aus too.)
    • I get that taking off the head is best but that's a bit much for "just" valve seals. I was just under the impression that one would be able to rotate to TDC and be able to temporarily drop the valve without losing it and effectively having to remove the head to then recover it. I never knew people actually pushed rope into the cylinder to do valve seals hahaha So just to confirm, just going to TDC will not work? In that case I know when I do valve seals I'll maybe just remove the head and do some other things while I'm there, or just wait until I do an engine build.
