Just curiouse to see if im the only sucker out there?

After making sure my wife knew not to throw 1 specific box out, I thought I had all bases covered. i asked her to get this box out containing a brand new gizzmo electronic boost controller, turns out she pulled the manual out and threw the rest in the bin.... Haven't been this devo'd since I blew up my turbo.

Lol any one else having these issues and is there a group buy on for newer model wives?

Bahahaha, sorry to hear mate. It's best to ban ur wife from the garage. Whilst I have never had this problem I'm sure my wife wishes I'd write my 260rs off or that It would catch fire or something. She calls my stag the never ending story!

My missus was banned from the garage, after she started dumping washing baskets and other household detritus on my farkin workbench!

I bought her a whole house to play in, I only want one room for myself.

Lol thanks Craig. Just shattering is all. I can't even stay angry at her, she rang me all emotional and crying and I couldn't even get angry or I'm the guy that made his pregnant wife cry.... I swear if they didn't have a vag we'd throw rocks at them.

Get used to it mate. Women cant help themselves, they've just gotta touch things that dont concern them. But if u move anything of thiers they lose the plot. Give it a try. Move a picture or some junk they've cluttered your house with.

Funny story on that Ray! There was a cheap arse picture that never made it onto the wall in my house.........I'd tripped over it for a little over 5 years. Anyway it ended up in my garage with a whole heap of other shit that was suppose to be moved out within a week of going in there(she took nearly 8 months and numerous arguments).

Long story short on the day when "I had" decided to reclaim man land she came out to help.......for some reason she still would not let me through the picture out even though it was never going to go on the wall.

So the conversation went a little like this after I had figured out that it didn't matter what I did she was going to end up with the shits.

First item!

Me: Can we get rid of the 2 dollar picture that I have been tripping over for 5 years and has never made onto a wall?

Wife: Noooooo!!!

Me: Why?

Wife: It might be useful one day?

Me: Your kidding arn't you?.......it's an 2 dollar POS!

Wife: Don't start me Craig we are KEEPING it!

Me: So were keeping broken shit now!!!

Wife: It's not broken and we are KEEPING it

Me: So can we throw broken stuff out

Wife: Yes

-----Foot goes through picture-----

Wife: I cannot believe you just did that arsehole!

Me: (Walking off) You have till the end of the day to move that shit out of the garage........then all the shit is going back into the house and you can deal with it!

We had our biggest garbage collection ever....and I got my garage back! :banana:

Special cuddles went on further hold...... :/

HahA made my day, and it's exactly like you

I get sick of my wife asking "why do you need all these cars bits. Stop building new cars...blah blah"

I have just rented another 8x8m storage shed beside my other 12x8m without her knowing

I can now build another car and she will not know until it turns up in the driveway in 6 months time......watch this space

my ex was like that. she had no idea how many cars i had or how much crap i had until we bought a house. the non stop nagging about spending money on cars is how she became ex mrs. new 1 stays out of the garage with the threat of spiders :D winning!!

I love this. Mrs 66 has never asked me to get rid of any (good) shit. We have a great big four Stagea garage, but there are no cars in it. We have an Art Gallery, Mrs. 66 is a really great Artist. The garage is full of frame making equipment. that is my forte!. but there is a certain amount of space for stuff. Coil overs, turbos, plennums, pipes, nuts and bolts, tubing, tools, oils etc. etc. etc. The simple necessities of life to sustain an elderly afficondio like myself. It even has a fridge XXXX

The back garage is so full of stuff that I cant get in to sharpen the mower blades. The very back shed has a BMX, a mountain bike, half an R30, most of a Sil and all sorts of Stagea bits and heaps of wheels and tyres

I live in Nissan Heaven.

    • Wife wanted basket things in the wardrobe in our temporary house. Thought about ripping our the wardrobe and fitting the entire IKEA set, but it's a temporary house and we want to move in a few years. So IKEA advertises this as a 50cm unit, however the actually basket and rails measure 46cm wide. Only issue was depth, IKEA stuff is quite deep, where as the builder special junk is super shallow at less than 40cm. Send it, chopped the rails, then offset the mounting holes, job done, happy wife, less shit scattered all over the bedroom. Did the same to the other side too. Also drove the Skyline shit box today, dropped off oil at Supercheap Auto. I didn't realise they only now take max 2x bottles per visit. I visited 2x Supercheap Autos.  
    • I've seen similar actually in my situation. You never know what tables are attempted to be used when the car thinks it's -99C or +200C. The fail state is not usually that extreme but you know what I mean - it was in my case though! This is where being able to read all the sensors is useful cause you see this stuff really quickly.
    • The above is very important. However as long as you keep timing relatively low, it's plausible to make your own knock ears and plausible to learn to tune with a modern ECU that can do wideband O2 correction like a boost controller. I mean if you only have one viable road to even drive the car on, learning to tinker to this level may be worth doing given you can't do much else with the car...?
    • I find the fact that the rear plate has to be bent inwards at the rear not so bad: but the front is just awful: It's like come on. (these are my very old, now retired/turned in plates) TBH it is a lot of money to fix a minor issue, the fact I said "I'll never really spend the money on doing this" is why people ended up buying them as a gift for a 'car guy' who can be hard to shop for.. for car guy things.
    • I just bent the ends of my premo plates. It even went through Regency like that after the engine conversion and the inspector (a great bloke!) just squinted his eyes and said "I didn't see that". Plates, and how they look, are just something that have zero importance to me.
