Nah, skipping from aviation, my ASIC pass is expired and I can make better money in scaffolding.
Just means I'll be away from Geelong and my family for a bit.

PM sent anyway Tom.

[Jace]

I appreciate your positivity dude!

Chin up - there is work out there, unfortunately travel usually is involved...
Matt just got back from working away for 12 months - only been married 13... In the last 3 years he's only been home for a 6 month stint straight because he has to go where the work is, but you do what you have to do.

Looove the picture by the way

[Jace]

Nah, I'm fine with it.
I have a few options and minimal expenses. Thinking about going to uni as well.
I could be in a far worse position. Thank **** the VR6 is out of my life now though.

Thinking about going to uni as well

thats the spirit bro... skill up!

[Jace]

Woah!!! I actually did something today!!!!

Proof:


Excuse the crud. Going to clean it up a heap... one day...
Working on getting the exhaust manifold outta there, so i can suss the cracks and take it to an exhaust shop to be welded.


Is now as good a time as any to remove the EGR stuff for good? Main thing i'd need for that is solid bolts to replace the banjo (?) bolts in the front of the head?

[Jace]

Where's the exhaust manifold likely to leak from? I can't see any cracks anywhere!

I don't want to put it back together with new gaskets and have it still leaking.

O My God a Mk 1 in Australia with a good dash. I thought mine was good but this is great! Pity about the brown, but maybe brown is the new black!

[Jace]

Nothing wrong with brown. What the hell else goes with Beige?!
The dash is probably 90%, so it's not perfect!
