Very nice - you have some serious talent !!

Jim - Congratulations !!! I'm thrilled that you finally (& inevitably) made it over the line, so you must be absolutely ecstatic !! Bloody Well Done !! BTW, I fully support your comments (& Darrell's) regarding Trevor Booth - the "Engineer's Engineer". Back in the early 2000's, I...

So folks, now you know what Canada thinks about the misuse of human beings. A Canadian female libertarian wrote a lot of letters to the Canadian Government, complaining about the treatment of captive insurgents (terrorists) being held in Afghanistan National Correctional System...

Hi Mate, Unfortunately, I can't help with instructions :( But before you start, have you looked at a higher ratio ring & pinion set ? The reason I ask is that I had a tall 5th gear set installed in my G50 & I wish I had gone the R&P route. With the standard diff & lower gears, you could...

An Australian ventriloquist visiting New Zealand walks into a small village and sees a local sitting on his veranda, patting his dog. He figures he'll have a little fun, so he says to the Kiwi 'G'day, mind if I talk to your dog?' Villager: 'The dog doesn't talk, you stupid...

Chuck, you probably should have a look at this : Supermarine Aircraft Spitfire 90% scale Spitfires, all aluminium, 2 seats. V6 or V8 !! Kind Regards, Peter D.

There was some mention of a mid-life crisis a while back, & it seemed like people thought that such an event was singular. Trust me, its not. The onset of a mid-life crisis is simply the dropping of the starter's flag on a "whole of life crisis" !! Kind Regards, Peter D.

Cliff, this all looks very much like my PBR rear brake setup which is from an '88 C4 Vette. I'm guessing that your setup is used for park brake only (given no brake pressure port), whereas I am using the whole assembly for both normal rear hydraulic disk brakes & for the park brake feature...

Thanks Guys ! It is always way better to learn from other people's mistakes, rather than from your own !! Kind Regards, Peter D.

Problem found & fixed ! The main thrust bearing on the crank was chewed out - apparently caused by the clutch "over-throwing" - going past the release point & available spring movement, then hauling the crank backwards against the thrust bearing. All my fault !! I never knew about the...

George, I would look favourably at an offer of $249,999 AUD for my slightly less famous 40 !

To quote Winston Churchill, who was once chided for ending a sentence with a participle : "This is the sort of rubbish, up with which, I will not put" !! Kind Regards, Peter D.

A woman in a supermarket is following a grandfather and his badly behaved 3 year-old grandson. It's obvious to her that he has his hands full with the child screaming for sweets in the sweet aisle, biscuits in the biscuit aisle and for fruit, cereal and pop in the other aisles. Meanwhile...

Free Amex cards from a printing supplier ??

There I was sitting at the bar staring at my drink when a large, trouble-making biker steps up next to me, grabs my drink and gulps it down in one swig. "Well, whatcha' gonna do about it?" he says, menacingly, as I burst into tears. "Come on, man," the biker says, "I didn't think you'd...

Dave, after 2 marriages & the current one now hitting the 30 year mark, I have figured out the answer to Dumas' famous question : ------------------ The great question... which I have not been able to answer... is, "What does a woman want?" ------------------ The answer is : SOMETHING...

Come on Pete, out with it ! Surely by now, you know that what is revealed within the 4 walls of this Forum stays within the 4 walls !!! Mind you, it will have to be a good one if it can do more damage to Gillard & her comrades than they are managing to do themselves on a weekly basis ...

George, how old are you - truthfully ?

Climate change - yes - bloody obvious as its been happening for millions of years - hot/cold/hot/cold...... Leading & Lagging Indicators : Lagging = sea temps/levels, glaciers, etc - we are looking at the END results of recent climate change (warming). Leading = sun-spot activity cycles...

An old guy (not in the best of shape) was working out in the gym when he spotted a sweet young thing. He asked the trainer that was nearby, "What machine in here should I use to impress that sweet thing over there?" The trainer looked him up and down and said, "I’d try the ATM in the lobby"
