I was surprised when they changed the rules regarding to teachers from needing a diploma to a degree. Suddenly it's a much bigger commitment and time to become a teacher. Do you think it will increase the quality of teachers due to this?

Hmmm that one can sometimes take the input shaft with it, hopefully not yet and it's just on it's way out.

Outside chance, but can also be a clutch issue. Thrust bearing another slight possibility if it's rattling around on the input shaft retainer because it's slightly touching the pressure plate (a good way to test out this one is to put a small amount of pressure on the clutch pedal so that it presses the bearing firmly up against clutch, but doesn't engage the clutch...if noise disappears then it's probably this. Otherwise input shaft / spigot bearing is your culprit.

Might as well do rear main while you're there too.

Thrust bearing sounds very logical as I'm pretty sure the noise went away as I touched the clutch peddle.

Rear main was done with the new engine so should be good.

That's good news hopefully then

Just a semi box out job and hopefully it was just noisy and hasn't chewed away at the input shaft retainer, not that these are particularly expensive

no

Yep

Can't guarantee that, but can guarantee there are heaps of lazy, uncommitted teachers who got through on a diploma and want a quick career in something they aren't particularly passionate about. Leesh has mentored quite a few teachers doing their student prac with her and it's always the diploma students who are the worst.

May mean a potential shortage in future, but yes I'd expect the quality to improve. Really no different logic from making med students do 6+ years of uni.

    • My idle is set at 950rpm though - Moving the timing around 20 degrees is not really what I'd call a calm idle. That said... neither is chop, by definition. The LS ECU likes to adjust timing to hold idle as opposed to air. It'd work, but generally speaking there'd be a discrepancy in the base idle and the IACV would want to move the timing around anyway to maintain said idle. I think I'm just going to keep the timing steady anyway. Preserve my engine mounts.  My aircon is now officially regassed. As the guy was reversing I noticed my reverse lights do not operate, along with my reverse cam. This is a bit distressing, because 100% of guides talk about which wire to connect to backup cams as "the goes with the [other color] wire". Often when doing conversions. Unfortunately the R34 colour wires aren't documented Unfortunately I had a T56 Magnum gearbox with it's reverse switch, which also isn't documented. Unfortunately there's definitely not documentation for people with both of these in the one car. Unfortunately I forgot. After many hours of this, I have a reverse cam and reverse lights again. The wire going through the trans tunnel to the reverse switch had broken. Upon inspection, it looks like this one wire had about 7 spade terminals and extensions in it.. for reasons I cannot possibly comprehend. I also spent the 750 hours required to clean up the wiring behind my head unit which now looks like this: This is a monumental improvement relative to what used to be there WRT triple gauges, head unit, traction control, wideband controller, and whatever the f**k OEM stuff still exists there in various states of connectivity/needed. Next step is to check in at the Exhaust shop to see/confirm how much clearance I have, to decide what mid mufflers or 'resonators' (which are just straight through, narrower mufflers) I can add and hopefully cut out a lot of exhaust leaks, pinhole, v-band or otherwise. But first step will be to 'take a look' before the next step.
    • Fark the AFM card and Nistune, Haltech Nexus S3, DBW, cruise control, flex fuel, dis dat.  
    • It's most likely the bolt/bush where the cover bolts back wore and allowed cover to move forward.
    • Still haven't put the injectors and R35 AFM in so we can tune the bloody thing for the HG highflow it got mid last year! I think I can forecast the upgrade path to a bigger twin scroll, external gate, Haltech, flex setup, Samsonas, dis dat, etc will be .... a while away!
    • Should have taken that opportunity to slot in a twin scroll turbo setup. Maybe next time.
