Issue I had with adoption agencies is that I never had a pet before and so they weren't too keen on giving me one. 

HRWA are not like that, they just want to ensure you know what you are getting into, Huskys are a unique breed and are extremely active

Malamutes are just huskies on steroids.  all my animals are sleeping because they live happy relaxing lifestyles. my dog gets two 8km walks a day.

 

Oh, and yeah, adopt one. there's so many out there.

Yea ok I'll have a look. House doesn't have an alfresco area. Ideally I'm hoping to get that up at least for work out door shade area for the dog.



Have a chat with Anne, as long as you know what your getting into you will be fine, they charge $400 for costs of desexing, microchips and worming etc

I don't have a very large house, in fact it is quite small. To make up for this, I take my dog for long walks and play with him at the park, which is perfectly fine. We'll play tug of war in the yard and sometimes we wrestle, he's 55kg...decent opponent.

No wonder your knees are shot 16km per day plus walking around at work [emoji15][emoji15]

So about that, I have some sort of Chondral Fissuring of both knees. Essentially, the Cartilage for both knees has deep cracks and fissures through it, some of it has also started peeling off of the bone, and there a small, loose bits of cartilage floating around the knee too.

Theres no surgical options, supposedly (Rheumatologist tells me that, so does my GP and Physio), so the best Cure is to Grind back the Cartilage with low-impact leg exercises. 
I had to buy a particular Exercise bike, that has a heavy flywheel (7kg), set the resistance up, so it's like pushing a weight, a slowly do that for 30 minutes a day. This not only builds muscle, but grinds back all my broken cartilage, and hopefully creates a new groove for my knee caps to sit in. Unfortunately it's a long, slow, painful process, slowly improving every week.

 

Option B is to take Anti inflammatory pills for the rest of my life, with monthly (expensive) Steroid Injections and fillers (with the risk of infection from each one).

Fux man that's really not good, hope
You do get better sooner rather than later!

    • I thought that might be the case, thats what I'll start saving for. Thanks for the info 
    • Ps i found the below forum and it seems to be the same scenario Im dealing with. Going to check my ECU coolant temp wire tomorrow    From NICOclub forum: s1 RB25det flooding at start up Thu Apr 11, 2013 7:23 am I am completely lost on this. Car ran perfectly fine when I parked it at the end of the year. I took the engine out and painted the engine bay, and put a fuel cell with an inline walbro 255 instead of the in tank unit I had last year. After reinstalling everything, the engine floods when the fuel pump primes. if i pull the fuel pump fuse it'll start, and as soon as I put the fuse back in it starts running ridiculously rich. I checked the tps voltage, and its fine. Cleaned the maf as it had some dust from sitting on a shelf all winter, fuel pressure is correct while running, but wont fire until there is less than 5psi in the lines. The fuel lines are run correctly. I have found a few threads with the same problem but no actual explanation of what fixed it, the threads just ended. Any help would be appreciated.

I found the problem though. There was a break in one of the ecu coolant temp sensor wires. Once it was repaired it fired right up with no problems. I would have never thought a non working coolant temp sensor would have caused such an issue.
    • Hi sorry late reply I didnt get a chance to take any pics (my mechanics on the other side of the city) but the plugs were fouled from being too rich. I noticed the MAF wasn't genuine, so I replaced it with a genuine green label unit. I also swapped in a different ignitor, but the issue remains. I've narrowed it down a bit now: - If I unplug and reconnect the fuel lines and install fresh spark plugs, the car starts right up and runs perfectly. Took it around the block with no issues - As soon as I shut it off and try to restart, it won't start again - Fuel pressure while cranking is steady around 40 psi, injectors have good spray, return line is clear, and the FPR vacuum is working. It just seems like it's getting flooded after the first start I unplugged coolant sensors to see if its related to ECU flooding but that didnt make a difference. Im thinking its related to this because this issue only started happening after fixing coolant leaks and replacing the bottom part of the stock manifolds coolant pipe. My mechanic took off the inlet to get to get to do these repairs. My mechanics actually just an old mate who's retired now so ill be taking it to a different mechanic who i know has exp with RBs to see if they find anything. If you have any ideas please send em lll give it a try. Ive tried other things like swapping the injectors, fuel rail, different fuel pressure regs, different ignitor, spark plugs, comp test and MAF but the same issue persists.
    • My return flow is custom and puts the return behind the reo, instead of at the bottom. All my core is in the air flow, rather than losing some of it up behind the reo. I realise that the core really acts more as a spiky heatsink than as a constant rate heat exchanger, and that therefore size is important.... but mine fits everything I needed and wanted without having to cut anything, and that's worth something too. And there won't be a hot patch of core up behind the reo after every hit, releasing heat back into the intake air.
    • There is a really fun solution to this problem, buy a Haltech (or ECU of your choice) and put the MAF in the bin.  I'm assuming your going to want more power in future, so you'll need to get the ECU at some stage. I'd put the new MAF money towards the new ECU.
