no engineer - no technology - no go fast gtr... :)

Hoy , don't cut my post to suit yourself !:)

In context with the next line

Making it stay up is a little harder without correct design

is an acknowledgement that engineers are needed.

What the guts of this little post session is that we all need each other but young people these days think they all need a degree in something when a lot of them will never get a job in that field anyway.

Sometimes if you ain't got , you can still earn a good living by manual means.

Alex u ever see a old school 300ZX around with the plates Nizmo around those parts - one of my friends lives in pickering brook and i used spend a lot of time in the ZX up in kalamunda but now my friends have either got their licenses or moved back down to flatland etc i dont take the line up their often.

Um left school at the end of 98 beginning of 99. I was suppose to be in the class of 2000. Im 19 going on 20 in may.

true - sorry for that but that first line was begging.. :) no hard feelings at all.. i think alot of the people building the things around us.. and it does take an art.. but again, it's like anything - there's a few good ones who carry the rest of the mediocre.. i wouldn't go glamorising some guy who can weld stuff or use a spanner..

i agree with you that both professionals and trades need each other.. not sure if i agree with what you say about people not getting jobs in their fields - unless you're talking about arts degrees... sorry - got a pet hate of those "do my 5 years of study for my degree to get nowhere" people.. no offense meant to any of you who may be this type of person.. :)

    • Let large companies that are making money off selling kits do the preliminary engineering for you. If they all do -10, then that is all you'll ever need. 
    • Hopefully it ends up being something manageable, like a hone, rather than a full bore—it would be a huge relief if it’s not as bad as it looks. Hang in there; these setbacks are annoying, but it sounds like you’re handling it as smartly as possible.
    • At the end of the day, it’s all about understanding the odds and being comfortable with the potential cost, whether it’s horsepower on a build or chips on a roulette table. And I have to say, the Laine example made me laugh—some people really do embrace that carefree, “roll and see” attitude!
    • Thanks MBS206, i got that PDF but got abit overhelm with all the connections and tracing of wires. I wasn't expecting to plug the dash harness anywhere. i was just going to use my electronics jumper wires to plug into the right pins like ECU power, ecu ground, ignition trigger etc... I do have a few ratchet straps locking it down tight. Fire extinguisher ready and only a small amount of fuel at a time, enough to submerge the pump.
    • Thanks GTSBoy, i will do abit more digging. I am missing a blue relay near the ECU connector... so i will chase that up in the next few days as well
