haha or some spanking joe ;)

i know - ive had nothing to do all week at work sooo thats my excuse but i dont think its going to get any better because my new desk is more sheltered so i can surf the net without anyone noticing and also im not gonig to have people pester me all the time for cars, equipment stationary and shit soooo ive become one of u haha

nah im pretty pleasant except when i get stuck doing someone elses job like stationary - the lady goes away i have never had anything to do with it but suddenly it gets handed to me haha ive left her such a mess! But the pleasantries have paid off because the reason why i got my new job is because i went outta my way for my new boss helping him choose his next car - i went and borrowed drive cars off managers at dealerships etc just for him and helped out with colours and this is before i knew that i was going to need his help to keep me in a job - so if your pleasant it does pay off but trust me i have my days where i really just dont give a fark!

i can watch any sport other than cricket or tennis - too me the most boring sports around - hell i can even watch golf but give me cricket im asleep within 5 mins but the english side do have the occasional looker to perv at i guess haha

i go into an auto shop and i have the same guy ask me the times if it was my car -

Is that your car

Yes

Is that you car

um err yes mate!

Aghhhh accept it - i maybe a chick but i can drive a nice car and yes i do know what its capable of errrr the dipshits of the world!

im like a hawk i watch people so closely around my car - its very much the touch it and die attitude - i maybe sweet but i pull a very mean death glare haha - it was like when i first decided to buy the car ive got and i went back to the caryard to take a good long look at what i was buying and there were there 11yr olds on bikes around it going "thats going to be my car" im thinking i think not! but they were so close to it and im standing there going just take one step closer to that car boy and you can kiss goodbye to ever having children - im so protective of my car - must take my maternal instinct out on something i guess haha

    • The downside of this is when you try to track the car, as soon as you hit ABS you get introduced to a unbled system. I want to avoid this. I do not want to bleed/flush/jack up the car twice just to bleed the f**kin car.
    • But again, the engineers said your cast aluminium would be fine based on the load that would be stretching that section. Same load stretching the bolts in a flex (not the twist), with a much smaller cross sectional area than the original part you've broken. It's why you'd need to be using higher strength bolts, but that's just making up for the strength you lose with less area...
    • I am truly amazed someone on this planet was able to cycle the pump using a scan tool. I've always ghetto cycled them on Nissan 90s shit boxes by slamming the brakes and pulling the handbrake to agitate the rear wheels enough to cause a speed difference
    • I didn't actually try it at the time but a Launch X431 with the appropriate software licenses/upsell will have the ABS bleed function. The Consult II you can still find some old sets of equipment but they're really, really expensive:   
    • Well I'll start by saying I'm not an engineer. I am going to go with the KiwiCNC ones.  They are made of 7050 alloy have good fillets and radius.  The material alone is in the order of double the strength and fatigue resistance - Those bolts, once torqued correctly place most of the load at the flat face of the mating surface - the 'stretch' you're talking about through torqueing them up would be far more than the extra stretch 'load' placed on them from a steering input or bump. (in my opinion) so I doubt they would flinch.    - but again "not an engineer".      oh and I don't think stitch welding 7050 is a good idea, likely just weaken the material (from what I read)
