That said, there is a bit of a saying that if you lend someone $20 and never get it back then it's money well spent

But not 20k

But then what if it was $20 paid in tax used to buy alcohol/ciggarettes/drugs? :P

I've gone through this before for 50 bucks, never getting that back

At least it was only 50 bucks, but still, 50 bucks is 50 bucks. :\

Don't think I'll lend money ever again to friends heh

Also, S22E03 of top gear is funny as f**k. (came out today)

Is he not paying it back because financially he is not in the position to do so?

Or does he have money now and is just avoiding paying it back.

Your mate needs to figure this out, talk to the guy, say "We agreed that you would pay back minimum $500/fortnight until it was fully repaid, you are not meeting your end of the agreement, why?" and if its a bullshit excuse call him out on it "Saw you shouting beers for everyone after work last night, where's my money man?"

This is why all agreements need to have a non-payment clause, whether it's upped interest rates after a certain timeframe or something, the person needs an incentive to pay it back... $50 isn't worth losing a friend over, $20,000 is more than enough for some people.

Yeah, not like I would loose a friend over 50 just be more careful lending out in future

I would lose a friend over 50, as long as you remind them about it and they're scum about paying it back

What kind of asshole does that to someone, when you've helped them out and their response is meh you don't need it back

Doesn't matter the amount

We went on a double date, (I'd seen this girl a couple of times before then) and I basically paid cos needed to pre book

Think it was thought he was being helpful to my cause/date, so didn't feel the need to pay back.. heh

    • What copper washer do you guys use on the bleeder bolts? The existing one I have I had no idea where to find it in a local store, I did buy some online but that are only 1mm thick whereas my old one is 2mm+ thick and when I put the new washer out and squeeze the top radiator hose I can hear a bit of air but not with the old one. Does this matter? The new one doesn't leak, but the inner diameter is a bit loose whereas the old one threads on the bolt.
    • Howdy all, after being out a few weeks ago on a spirited drive in my GTR I have 2 issues that oddly have appeared at the same time. Whilst accelerating quickly through the gears all of a sudden i’ve lost power at the top of third gear (below redline around 6000rpm) for no obvious reason.    From that point onwards the car has been running rich on idle, won’t really rev under load without a ton of black smoke and the odd backfire, and dying as a pull up to a set of lights unless I keep the revs up around 1500rpm. In addition when shutting down the car that same night (I was 10 minutes from home) I noticed one of the turbos was significantly noisy on wind down when shutting off the engine. After letting the car cool down overnight it starts up fine, although once it gets to temp the revs start to creep up and down, the exhaust is darker than it should be and it also sounds like it’s running rich (fat note) I’ve put a new set of plugs in it - no change, the old plugs all seemed OK with two of them being somewhat richer/fueled up than the other 3 with 1 being borderline. I’ve smoked tested the intake system via the front of the Turbos, found a split vacuum hose going to the factory boost gauge sender, which I have since replaced.  Also found another leak on the gasket coming off the rear turbo outlet, have also replaced this. After fixing both of these leaks - still have the running rich issue. I’ve also tried another pair of AFM’s - no change here After pulling off the front turbo intake pipes, there is obvious shaft play in the front turbo, which now hisses loudly on light revvs although I can’t see why this would make the car run funny even under idle. I’m curious to know why it’s running rich before I potentially replace/rebuild turbos. The car is completely stock <50,000kms  other than an exhaust. Oil and coolant are all clear. I haven’t bothered with coil packs as it looks like they won’t be the issue due to condition of the plugs. Any help appreciated as I cry myself to sleep!
    • No probs at all. I used to love trying to dig up obscure info for those in need where possible going back 20+ years on SAU.  I did have another look and couldn't come up with any closer match. I'm leaning towards those skirts in your first pic are custom fitments, cut down/extended or from another car entirely and modded to fit an R34 sedan. I would've thought someone in Japan had them and taken a photo at some stage over the last 2 decades but there's nothing. Someone out there must know surely.
    • Welcome mate. Any pics? Even with a DE I'd be well happy if I had that as a 1st car.
