Put down, he deteriorated a lot in the space of about a week. From walking fine etc to going blind, loss of hearing and you could hear him struggling to breath as well, oh and he started to get nose bleeds.

Good choice. Can't stand when dog owners let their dog cling to shreds of life until absolutely everything fails.

And don't watch Marley & Me, unless you're after some catharsis...

Have lost four dogs at ripe old ages, gets harder the older you are cause you understand mortality a bit better and you have more time spent with them during important and memorable times of your life. Still have 3 alive dogs who will bring me that sadness again in the next 5-7 years.

Damn you dog y u have such short life

Sorry to hear mate. My Jack Russell is 15 years old this year. He is slightly deaf and slightly blind. Still in good health otherwise. I'm cherishing everyday with him as I know at this age they can deteriorate quickly. I just can't imagine living without him as he has been apart of my life since I was 12/13 years old.

Sorry to hear mate :( Hardest thing in the world to say goodbye to a pup. I've said goodbye to two now and it never gets any easier.

My ex took our dog when she left... They had some pretty similar traits in that they both tried to f**k anything that stood still long enough. At least the dog had loyalty.

The last time I saw my pup it was like he knew that it was going to be the last time, and he was crying and jumping all over me and licking me. There is no substitute for the love of a good dog.

Does anyone give a shit when cats die?

My old boss had an actual full-tilt breakdown when her chicken died. She was a c**t so I assume the chicken died by Seppuku,

Didn't they do a study recently that essentially proved that cats are asshats? Something about dogs producing 5x as much Oxytocin as cats after playing with their human.

Dogs are much more social creatures I think and the pack mentality is in their ancestry; cats tend to be solo hunters like tigers (though lions do it in groups). From what I've seen in homes with multiple pets the dogs are always sticking together and watching what each other does, whilst multiple cats sort of do their own thing.

I've never had a cat so maybe I just don't get it. I feel like if I wanted an animal that found a comfortable spot and laid there for hours without moving or making any sort of noise, occasionally scavenged for food, never cleaned up after itself and otherwise wholly ignored my presence, I'd just continue living with my current housemate.

I prefer cats over dogs.

Still like dogs though, so this is a "cat is more suited to me" thing over cats being superior to dogs.

Dogs are awesome, but they do require more effort to maintain, so to speak - Which isn't for everyone.

    • Was going to say the car pulls up nicely everywhere, especially going into that last long right hander before the main straight. Looks like a lot of fun.
    • Hey Dave, welcome aboard! Good to see another soon-to-be Stagea owner here. The wagons are awesome — plenty of space, still got that Skyline DNA, and loads of potential if you’re into mods. Definitely post up pics when you get it, everyone here loves seeing new builds. What model/year are you looking at?
    • See if you can thermal epoxy a heatsink or two onto it?
    • The other problem was one of those "oh shit we are going to die moments". Basically the high spec Q50s have a full electric steering rack, and the povo ones had a regular hydraulic rack with an electric pump.  So couple of laps into session 5 as I came into turn 2 (big run off now, happily), the dash turned into a christmas tree and the steering became super heavy and I went well off. I assumed it was a tyre failure so limped to the pits, but everything was OK. But....the master warning light was still on so I checked the DTCs and saw – C13E6 “Heat Protection”. Yes, that bloody steering rack computer sitting where the oil cooler should be has its own sensors and error logic, and decided I was using the steering wheel too much. I really appreciated the helpful information in the manual (my bold) POSSIBLE CAUSE • Continuing the overloading steering (Sports driving in the circuit etc,) “DATA MONITOR” >> “C/M TEMPERATURE”. The rise of steering force motor internal temperature caused the protection function to operate. This is not a system malfunction. INSPECTION END So, basically the electric motor in the steering rack got to 150c, and it decided to shut down without warning for my safety. Didn't feel safe. Short term I'll see if I can duct some air to that motor (the engine bay is sealed pretty tight). Long term, depending on how often this happens, I'll look into swapping the povo spec electric/hydraulic rack in. While the rack should be fine the power supply to the pump will be a pain and might be best to deal with it when I add a PDM.
    • And finally, 2 problems I really need to sort.  Firstly as Matt said the auto trans is not happy as it gets hot - I couldn't log the temps but the gauge showed 90o. On the first day I took it out back in Feb, because the coolant was getting hot I never got to any auto trans issues; but on this day by late session 3 and then really clearly in 4 and 5 as it got hotter it just would not shift up. You can hear the issue really clearly at 12:55 and 16:20 on the vid. So the good news is, literally this week Ecutek finally released tuning for the jatco 7 speed. I'll have a chat to Racebox and see what they can do electrically to keep it cooler and to get the gears, if anything. That will likely take some R&D and can only really happen on track as it never gets even warm with road use. I've also picked up some eye wateringly expensive Redline D6 ATF to try, it had the highest viscosity I could find at 100o so we will see if that helps (just waiting for some oil pan gaskets so I can change it properly). If neither of those work I need to remove the coolant/trans interwarmer and the radiator cooler and go to an external cooler....somewhere.....(goodbye washer reservoir?), and if that fails give up on this mad idea and wait for Nissan to release the manual 400R
