Mugabetown - Whoretownin' At It's Worst.

Eating at your desk is bad for your health, your moral and your productivity. Just sayin'

Also, a call for help to all my fellow whores! http://www.skylinesaustralia.com/forums/topic/431683-request-for-photos-and-video-from-ths-year/

Why?

Long story short not having a proper period of downtime at lunch increases stress significantly and doesn't give you a chance to recharge. As a result you are less likely to be as creative, as productive, as happy or as healthy in the long run and your work output and quality declines both in the short and long run.

There is a decent amount of scientific research in the area, I can dig some up for you when I'm not so swamped with other research assignments if you'd like. I used a chunk of research into the area when preparing a workshop last year on why stress management needs more attention in business. In terms of directly linked stress issues that can actually be measured, work related stress accounts for losses to developed economies of approximately 2.1-3.6% of GDP. Why add to that figure by not taking 30 minutes away from your desk to unwind at lunch?

If HR guys like me can save big chunks of money I'm all for it :) Stress related work absences cost the US Economy $300 BILLION a year.

I'd be willing to bet most of that stress comes from low wages and high expectations of employees...USA for ya.

Problem i have with the 30mins lunch break is if i drive to subway to get lunch, by the time i get back it's 28mins gone, takes, so naturally im eating at my desk anyway, and i wouldn't call those 28mins i spent driving to subway and waiting for food "relaxation".

But it certainly is nice to be uncontactable for 30mins at that time.

Unicorn washed. I am going to need to paint it in the next 12 months of I keep it. The white is falling off all over the place revealing the gun metal goodness below.

Custom gunmetal flecks? :P

Custom gunmetal flecks? :P

Pretty much. Who ever did it did a shit job. The gun metal is still all shiny.

    • You just need to remove the compressor housing, not the entire turbo. I would not be drilling and tapping anything with the housing still on anyways. 
    • So, I put my boat on a boat. First of all, I'm going to come out and say it. Why is Tasmania not considered a holy goal, an apex that all road-legal modified cars go to, to experience? This place is an absolute wonderland of titanic proportions. If people are already getting club runs for once in a lifetime 30 person cruises to Tassy then I've never seemed to see it. It is like someone replaced the entire place with an idyllic wonderland for cars, and all of the people living there with paid actors who are kind, humble, and friendly. Dear god. After doing a lap of almost all of the place I've found that it's a great way to find out all of the little things that the car isn't doing quite right and a great way to figure it all out. All in all, I drove for 4 hours a day for a week and nothing broke. I didn't even need to open the engine bay. This is by all means a great success, but it has left me with a list of things to potentially address. I also now have a 3D printed wheel fitment tool which annoyingly hasn't got any threads in it to actually assemble it. I might be able to tape it together to check the sizing I actually want to use, but it'll likely involving pulling the shocks out to properly measure travel at least at the front, and probably raise the car while I'm at it, at least in the rear. I scraped on quite a few things and I'm not sure how else to go about it. I was taking anything with a bump at what felt like 89 degree angles. And address those 10 other tasks. And wash the car. God damn it is dirty. And somehow, the weather was perfect the entire time - And because I was on the top of Mt Wellington it turns out it was very much about to freeze up there. I did something I typically never do and took some photos up there in what must have been -10 and the foggy felt like suspended ice, rather than mere fog. If you own a car in Australia, you owe it to yourself to do it.
    • Damn that was hilarious, and a bit embarrassing for skylines in general 😂 vintage car life ey. That R33 really stomped. Pretty entertaining stuff
    • Hi, I have a r32 gtr transmission. Does any of you guys have an idea how much power it will hold with the billet center plate and stock gearset? At what power level and use did yours brake with or without billet plate? Thanks, Oystein Lovik
    • Saw this replica police car based on a Mitsubishi Starion XX parked next to a 'police box' (it's literally a box) in Hirohata, Himeji City in Hyogo prefecture the other day. It's owned by Morii-san who is a local Mitsubishi Starion enthusiast. According to a local radio station blog post, he always wanted to make a police car himself based on ones he saw in his favourite Manga comics.  As it's illegal to modify a car to look like a police car and drive on the road, Morii-san tried many times to get permission from Aboshi police station headquarters nearby. They refused initially by after they got tired of that they granted him permission. However, the car can only be displayed on private property and obviously can't be registered as long as the police livery is present. The car was completed at a cost of 1.5 million yen (US$ 10,000) in addition to the car cost. A location was chosen outside Hirohata Police box where the car can easily been seen from the street. Morii-san has two other Starion road cars, both widebody GSR-VRs.
