feet up today Dale?

Fkn I wish. Turns out I was so apparently keen at the interview on Friday, they asked me to start tomorrow, so I have been busier than a one armed walpaperer with an itchy sack :(

After 6 months of doing fckall, it feels REALLY good to say "..got work tomorrow..."

Suppose you'll find out Friday night. If she gets a turn?;-) chirping second like a angry caged cockato, luring you in to mongrel the index finger.

Did u get a short shift for it? I put a poxy speco gear knob on mine to replace the even poxier skull that was on it when I bought it. Then put a tomei duracon on it. Heaps better with the tomei loads more feel.

Be careful of the back mate. I've done the discs twice in the L1234, doc reconds next time operating. I do back excersizes everyday when I hit time and a half ;-) and wear a lumbar brace at work. I've found the thermoskin one from the chemist isn't so intrusive. Keeps the back warm and has rigidity plus flexibility. I mash the shower on red hot in the morning and compress the spine with the boiling hot water to warm it up. Works for me.

When it's been really bad after the herniation. I do excersizes in the hydrotherapy pool warm down in the spa over 2-3 weeks then build up to swimming laps in the heated indoor pool with training fins. Only freestyle stroke. The training fins really build up the lower back muscles.

I hear you bro. This isnt my first time on the roundabout though. Had herniation surgically removed from L4/5 twice before, this time they thought it would be the same, turned out to be an arseload of scar tissue from the first 2 ops, plus my disc had collapsed completely (hence the fusion) plus loaded up the L5/S1 so that one will be the next isue.

    • BRUH, one of the biggest mistakes of my life..... and i've had plenty ;[)
    • @Murray_Calavera iam just considering options 🙂 of course it is very expensive so that why i ask here 🙂  @joshuaho96 I looked at that GCG hybrid(i remember looking at it few weeks before) So this is "that" hybrid where i send them my turbo and they upgrade the inside to Garrett stuff and then they send it back. It cost around 1200-1300 USD which is FAR cheaper than the HKS and it is what iam looking for(i just do not have experience like this...to send something off to "upgrade" ) @tylink720 that is like 150 USD turbo no? 😄 I dont think i have the "ease on my mind" with this kind of turbo. I just put over 7000k USD to "LINK" up my engine...dont want to blow it up with cheap turbo 😄     EDIT: https://www.cj-motor.com/gcg-turbo-charger-for-nissan-rb20det-rb25det-high?srsltid=AfmBOooVeOZ6CZ6r1AIv5m-KPaa6BvudIPJTY8LW78khkd-gQlsaCht9 I looked at this and it seems ok? It is that CGC hybrid and it costs around 1250 USD (with back shipping). Do any of you have experience with this hybrid on NEO turbo? I quickly look thru the forum/web and it seems very good.

    • It's funny, as Ive seen plenty of people use them in cheap builds on YT. And they actually go okay, even though a lot of other maxspeedingrods stuff is terrible. Those turbos seem reliable enough, the only part being, a good quality turbo that is "identical" to it, will out perform it day in and day out. In both a lower boost threshold, and the ability to flow more air at the same boost pressure. As a cheap cheap replacement, not a terrible choice. For cheap and shouldn't blow in a day, not terrible (like other eBay/Temu turbos) for low cost and still decent performance, that's where the question comes in to play from the results I've seen. I'd actually find it hilarious to buy one, and strap it to a paddock basher or some other cheap as POS originally NA car, and send it to the moon!
