Just find young attractive Loaded guy and get married!

Niz,

It's difficult to find something you enjoy, even I don't get excited about work, it's OK but not great. I can do lots of things, but the only stuff I really enjoy is mucking around with cars, but I ain't good enough at that.

One day I will own a car tuning shop, but till then I'll keep working my normal job.

See'ya:burnout:

yeah i'll go on a world trip just after my 21st - should have my investment house by then too.

:P

Rich guys are usually egotistical pricks i cant stand an ego! my ex had the biggest on earth and it used to shit me

it sux 4ss!!!!!!!

oh btw. i can move my leg again now. still hurts to stand on and i still have to use the crutches but its getting a bit better

Meh being rich aint all its cracked up to be. IMHO if i got enuff to get by and have a few little luxuries im right. Rich is nice house nice car and good life. It dont have to be a porsche and a mansion. As long as i can get stuff i want without too much saving its all good

all the people i know are poor and i tend to end up goin out wif ppl just as poor as me. (read a whole 2 ppl) but i dont think it matters how much money u have. if u can get thru a week of living on 15 bucks with ur partner with no food in the cupboard u can get thru nething. being poor realy tests the strengths of ppls relationships i believe

*Joe take big breath* No offence Nizzy

come on Niz! Wake up! Not all are like that! I understand you do have problem with egomaiacs but that's bit stereo typic judgement on people isnt it? you have to learn to let it go.

I know I wont be the last person you will listen to but I think Judgeing people of their social statues as well as their physical apperances... this goes to all of you reading this :P.

the best life lesson I've learn so far is that you are not alone in this world, you have to make effort to get along with others :)

does that make sense? :confused:

*Joe crawls back to hole*

cheers

Joe

    • You Gregged a whole racetrack!?
    • Look for broken wire or bad connector at the motor. Might not be it, but is worth starting there, as it is easy.
    • Hi everyone, I’m having an issue with my R32 GT-R. Sometimes, when the car goes over a bump or experiences some vibration, the 4WD warning light comes on the dashboard. When I check the code from the control unit in the trunk, it shows Code 19 – ETS Motor. However, everything seems to be working fine — if I turn off the engine and restart the car, the light goes away and everything functions normally. Has anyone experienced this before? Where should I start troubleshooting this issue? Thanks in advance!
    • I'm back from the dyno - again! I went looking for someone who knew LS's and had a roller dyno, to see how it shaped up compared to everything else and confirm the powerband really is peaking where Mr Mamo says it should. TLDR: The dyno result I got this time definitely had the shape of how it feels on the road and finally 'makes sense'. Also we had a bit more time to play with timing on the dyno, it turns out the common practice in LS is to lower the timing around peak torque and restore it to max after. So given a car was on the dyno and mostly dialled in already, it was time for tweaking. Luis at APS is definitely knowledgable when it came to this and had overlays ready to go and was happy to share. If you map out your cylinder airmass you start seeing graphs that look a LOT like the engine's torque curve. The good thing also is if you map out your timing curve when you're avoiding knock... this curve very much looks like the inverse of the airmass curve. The result? Well it's another 10.7kw/14hp kw from where I drove it in at. Pretty much everywhere, too. As to how much this car actually makes in Hub Dyno numbers, American Dyno numbers, or Mainline dyno numbers, I say I don't know and it's gone up ~25kw since I started tinkering lol. It IS interesting how the shorter ratio gears I have aren't scaled right on this dyno - 6840RPM is 199KMH, not 175KMH. I have also seen other printouts here with cars with less mods at much higher "kmh" for their RPM due Commodores having 3.45's or longer (!) rear diff ratios maxing out 4th gear which is the 1:1 gear on the T56. Does this matter? No, not really. The real answer is go to the strip and see what it traps, but: I guess I should have gone last Sunday...
