Smashing it. But will you hold or sell

HOLD! It's a spec stock and they've possibly stumbled onto the largest unconventional oil reserve in America - think larger than eagle ford. And this is in spite of the price of oil sucking a dick right now. Potential for a 10x here, so...call it greedy...but...I'd rather lose it all than miss out on the big time :)

Not too late to get on it, it's undervalued even with the massive gains recently

Yep...it used to be called Tangiers Petroleum...traded at $1 plus...they drilled an offshore (iirc) well in Monaco that turned out to be a duster. Share price tumbled baaaad, welcome to penny stock. Company changed name, new CEO, recruited an expert on oil - dude who effectively discovered eagle ford shale sweet spot. Planned an exploratory drill on a slope in Alaska where most companies had avoided but there were known shale deposits. 85% gov rebate on drilling in Alaska, so a 50 mil operation costs you 7 mil. This well...ain't a duster (so far). Metric shit ton of oil - just a question of how useful/viable it is. There is a very slim chance that the share price could return to $1 long term, if a joint venture is created or if one of the big boys buys out the company. The goal is to prove up the acreage they own and wait for oil price to return to make a shale drill profitable (I think it needs ~$50 a barrel). 88E own 200,000 acres of land worth $30 an acre at the moment...once oil is proved up, could be worth $3000 an acre. Roughly translate the share price in the same way and you'll get why I am not selling yet.

That's the long and short of it!

Betting on commodities to increase will be a long journey. There is more supply than demand.

They saying iron ore won't grow until 2020. I think they saying oil still has room to drop.

I'm not really betting on it to increase, even though an increase in oil price would be a great factor - I'm betting on this company to prove up the value of the acreage they own so that another company can bet on an increase in oil price. Therefore I don't really have to wait for oil to come back, only for a company to know that the finite resource will one day again be worth more than ever and that it would be stupid not to purchase the land from the explorer even in current climates (low price of oil). They are already in talks with potential joint venture partners so that could be a reality soon, but yeah it's tough to know when to get off the ride...risk vs return I guess.

This is true.

Being at Barry's is f**king funny. If you didn't know anyone it looks like the most unfriendly place with the bulky westside regulars hanging around and his own dodgy demeanor. It's farkin family though, feels like home on a Saturday arvo.

Might organise some dyno time with RP to tidy up the E85 tune. New head gasket has raised compression marginally and the tune is 3-4 years old anyway.

Birds - my series 2 seats are still taking up room at my old place. Yours for free if you want them

I feel stupid not taking them, tried to convince Leesh to replace her back breaking replica, but no dice. You tried ebay?

    • HFM BM57 has a "bad" knee point, IIRC. It's not the same thing as the later R chassis MC.
    • The ATTESSA is functionally identical to R34; there were a bunch of JDM models that continued ATTESSA including Fuga/Q70, Skyline/Q50, Cima etc as an option. All with Auto only and I think mostly for snow regions. AFAIK there were no AWD VR30DDTT sold in Australia - it is on my to do list to check regs for racing a LHD car in Targa/ATR/AASA/CAMS events because if I can get the auto to work it would be interesting to run a 4wd car The Ecuteck TCM tuning is the same model as their ECU tuning, they already have it for R35 and Dose's favourite, BMW. You buy "points" to allow your computer to be tuned, buy either a bluetooth (phone app) or bluetooth+USB+Key (phone and PC) dongle, and pay for a tune that will be locked to your tuner ( ). You can also access the tuning software yourself but 1. it is mega expensive and 2. these computers have a billion parameters that intersect, so how could you ever spend enough time on it to get a decent result.
    • Or, is it a case of what it is like owning an R series Skyline? NFI what the previous owner has done or fiddled with... Ha ha ha After reading through this thread, I went on a bit of a research about the Q50/Q60. Now I'm quite intrigued by them! Is the AWD in them more like a WRX where it's always AWD, or is it more like the ATTESSA in the GTRs? By the sound of this TCU tuning, this sounds like a case of someone has made some real software for it, and you just need the right piece of hardware, and then you license that specific vehicle/TCU. Or is this a case of the software will be really expensive so only a few tuners have it, and you still have to pay a license per vehicle?
    • By popular demand.. it was a coil. Got my hands on 1 new OEM coil, replaced with the one that made the less noise difference when I unplugged it while the car was running and started the car up. No stutter and the engine light was gone. I guess I’ll buy the other 5 they have lol
    • No, code 21 is very straightforward. It can only be the things described in that diagnostic flow. In fact it has no way of knowing that the spark plug resistance is out of spec.
