Mrs wouldnt lile that, shes a picky bitch. I never did understand why she chose me ?

Sisters boyfriend is a mechanic. Triple car port entry down stairs. Whole bottom floor was garage under the house. 4x2 on top. Garage became, partitioned spray tanning booth (qualified never used), massage and raiki room (qualified never used) full clothes and shoes booth on rotating racks (sheer indulgence) she has a doctorate in education (never used) motor bikes and cars sold and crammed into the last remaining door. I loved the layout of that place. After he had to sell his business to support the first wife while teaching at tafe he done cashies every weekend to hide the money and survive. Sister took care of that. Wish I'd bought it when they sold up. Garage was same size as the 4x2 underneath?

Have helped the Russians and Asians both sides and across the street and behind with lifts, ute, gardening, lawn mowing, pest control, reticulation systems and rebuilt fences after storms. They like me and are old, let them know when party and 700watts of metal is on. No probs!

We've been looking at big shed spa and pool upgrade maybe a top story but it is what it is. The older the kids get its becoming more difficult. 4 cars in the driveway already but will hold 6. Skyline and xr8 take top spots!

The wife and I just love our little 4x2. (starter) We have done everything ourselves when we saved up to afford it over the years, bore, reticulation,patio,shed,concreting,paving,fish pond,gazebo,gardens,lawn,driveway, kids were born here, p.l. + l.w. engraved in driveway concrete. Now p.l. and L.l. It's our home not a house.

Painting all the patio pine in the car port then building it. Saving up to buy the metal sheeting, golden memories [emoji4]

DSC_0298.JPGDSC_0299.JPGthe wife me and my dad built that s.o.b. 20 years ago. Hip jointing and angles with circular saw and mitre box with Tennant saw. Skewed nails with no nail gun. Hammer and nail punches. Ladders in sand and rapid set all the posts in. Painted all the pine with rollers in the car port before dad engineered it. Leanne and I were his lackeys, that's what makes it a home and why I'm reluctant to ever sell;-) we were fully broke at the time and dad bought all the sheeting for us as a Christmas gift:-) boxing day dad and I on ladders fitting the sheets. Our family home:-)

    • I can see between the water jacket and cyl 3 there wasn't a hard line of combustion gas. It certainly appears that the issue is coming from there. Yes, checked the tension. All at 100ft lbs where I set them 5 years ago. These blocks can crack but generally when they have been over bored. Mine is only 0.5mm oversize at 89.5mm. They break between cylinders around the 91mm mark. No sign of that with mine. My gut feeling is the head gasket lifted a while back when the studs stretched and i bandaided it by retorquing the studs. It's finally let go.
    • My Nismo 1.5 churps a bit on reverse turns when cold, but besides that feels like a stock diff.
    • Yes, but, I paid cash and I'm pretty sure the receipt was in the bin 10 minutes after I got home Note to self, keep all receipts
    • Bunnings would have just handed you your money back on that one!
    • So, version 4 intake is on its way I was looking at these a while ago but at around $200 or more it was a little pricey for something that might not work, but, I had it in my watch list, but, I got a message saying it was on special, and I had a code thingie to use, it eventually came in at $120 delivered, so BAM, BUY NOW.....LOL I'll need to have a look when it arrives but I feel it will "look" better than what I currently have, as it comes with a PCV fitting, so I will be able to get rid of the alloy pipe that goes to the throttle body with the PCV fitting  Well, that's what the voices in my head are telling me  Oh, and this happened today Yeap, it was a Trojan, and it was cheap, so I headed back to the hardware store and actually spent a little bit more on a heavy duty,  one that was actually recommended by a plumber mate, a Cyclone one with a fibreglass handle that is actually rated for clay The broken shovel will eventually be "modified" into a short handle shovel
