My work doesn't magically go away if I don't show up, only doing myself a disservice if I take the day off

Anyone used/using Nankang NS2Rs? Already thinking of next tyres for the GTST. RSRRs have served me well and were great value when new, but starting to lose their grip under power. Plenty of life left in them for regular driving but they're still noisy as fk and that's only an acceptable trade off if you're getting grip.

I "think" these are what richo runs on the wrx and was very happy with $$ for grip.

 

EDIT:

Sorry he running the AR1

Unfortunately if I don't come in to work for more than 2-3 days so much stuff grinds to a halt. It's why I'm hesitant to take more than a few days for a holiday. When I went to Japan for 3-4 weeks they got someone to run things while I was away and they ended up cancelling the job before I even got home because they weren't prepared. Trying to organise work for myself after it fell through was a pain in the ass.
Its like if you book a holiday too far in advanced it's f**k things coming up you're not aware of yet, but you can't exactly do things last minute because it seems convenient.
February went to the gold Coast for like 5 days or something and ended up having to come home early for work. Typical.

Live to work or work to live... If you're just an employee the decision is an easy one

Was just about to type the same thing.. work to live or live to work 

I feel like too many people live to work, has it always been like this? 

#quarterlifecrysis feel like all I do is work and not much fun these days

Granted I'm in the middle of a major mid life crisis, but more and more I start to think like that... Too often I hear shit like 'I'd love to do x, but I have to work' meanwhile said persons boss/company owner is on their 5th overseas trip for the year.
f**k that shit.
It's not living, it's just waiting to die

My work (yay govt) has two types of leave, has a certain amount of sick leave per year with no cert, and a second allotment of leave with a cert. The leave with a cert is very generous and generally used for people with sick kids/carers leave etc.

Life quality is a thing and really should be everyone's primary aim, however the hell it suits people to achieve it.

Some people have it easier, some people have it hard. Some people make it hard for themselves. Some people have earned and worked their way to having it easy.

 

The older I get, the more I realise how a lot of people who have it hard comes down to decisions they have made as well as how they approach work/life. #CISmaleprivelige

 

(obviously some people are just thrown curve balls their entire lives)

      RB25DE NEO with Haltech ECU

      By feartherb26 · Posted

      If you take the top half of the intake off you can unbolt the flap off the shaft and leave the shaft in there blocking the hole. Then you can remove the little vacuum canister off from under the manifold and get a spare vacuum line to run to the ECU. I can take some photos of it later. Probably best to get the vacuum source to the ECU sorted first though. Mine all worked mint with the base map from the GTT an I've pretty much let the closed loop sort the fueling and took 1 degree out of the whole timing map.

      This IS something you also have to configure in Haltech (or at least I did in the past when going from onboard-to-ECU map sensor and an external MAP sensor in haltech land).

      I'm hoping it's something as simple as the ECU is looking for an external MAP sensor, but he is trying to use the onboard MAP sensor.

      You won't need to do that if your happy to learn to tune it yourself. You 100% do not need to do that. It is not part of the learning process. It's not like driving on track and 'finding the limit by stepping over the limit'. You should not ever accidently blow up an engine and you should have setup the ECU's engine protection to save you from yourself while you are learning anyway. Plenty of us have tuned their own cars, myself included. We still come here for advice/guidance/new ideas etc.  What have you been doing so far to learn how to tune?

      Put the ECU's MAP line in your mouth. Blow as hard as you can. You should be able to see about 10 kPa, maybe 15 kPa positive pressure. Suck on it. You should be able to generate a decent vacuum to about the same level also. Note that this is only ~2 psi either way. If the MAP is reading -5 psi all the time, ignition on, engine running or not, driving around or not, then it is severely f**ked. Also, you SHOULD NOT BE DRIVING IT WITHOUT A LOAD REFERENCE. You will break the engine. Badly.
