Western Australia has critically small populations of the endangered Australian Sea Lion due to impacts from sealers and settlers in the nineteenth century. These endangered populations are now under increased threat from crayfishing, as around 10 Sea Lion pups per year are being caught in craypots and drowning.

The WA populations are specifically at risk because they have very slow breeding rates, the colonies are isolated, and generally only half of the pups will survive after weaning. The death of even 10, can have a major impact in a population that may have only 150 surviving pups. It’s critical that we ensure the survival of every pup we can.

The fisheries Minister Jon Ford can save the sea lions, by enforcing the application of Sea Lion Exclusion Devices (SLED’s) in craypots, whilst ensuring the industry can operate in the region.

Extinction is not an option.

Please see the following link and send an email or a letter to Jon Ford to help save these cute furry buggers that would bite your hand given the opportunity!

      What should I do next to hold the head on

      By MBS206 · Posted

      When you pulled it off, there is no signs of blown head gasket? Is it possible you have some other issues going on? Possible cracked blocked? Or do you think it's straight up lifting the head? Did you check what the head was torqued to before pulling it down (To see if possibly they're stretching, or starting to break threads out etc)?

      Chris' Toyota Mark ii JZX110

      By Rezz · Posted

      Seems like a decent result for a modded JZX110. They are bulky in comparison to the 100 and 90 models (which I'd prefer myself) but they are getting very few and far between here in JP these days. Thanks for the detailed review and the import process into the UK. I also have a car which I'm hoping to export from Japan at some stage so it's good to know if someone from the UK was interested in it. By the way the corrosion underneath is par for the course for cars which were located in/near the mountains or along the Japan sea coastline. They get huge amounts of snow every winter and the sodium chloride is used on the roads. Many cars have some kind of rubber like treatment underneath but they tend to limit it to the wheel arches underbody and fuel tank. Suspension arms and sub-frames will have similar corrosion to your JZX110 which is a common sight. See it all the time and car dealers here generally don't even mention it unless asked.

      new 1.5 LSD issues/concerns

      If the sound goes away when you clutch in, the 1.5/2 way diffs are just shit, and you are a normal person. The diff is likely "fine" but driving at anything under 30kmh is a violent horrible experience. It would be exaggerated with solid diff bushings and subframe bushings if you have those.
