H6 conversion = P-plate legal.
Only reason i thought about it.
But if the cost of the conversion it more than the cost of a factory H6 then its not worth it.

Not like i can currently afford it anyway.

I could probably fix most of my lib with the money i have atm (from the 121 and tax etc) and it would then be reliable....
Opinions?

I could borrow the bosses shed for a weekend and do the engine swap service etc, get a couple of mates out there for a fun time..... wait my mates are lazy fucks who just drink my drinks...

Doesnt say that any more. I checked out "a modified engine that must be approved under section 13 of the Transport Operations (Road Use Management — Vehicle Standards and Safety) Regulation 2010." it means the vehicle cannot be defectable, so if its engineered its legal.

Mate it's been death over here for man flu. I don't usually get information from Today Tonight that I take seriously, but it was on when we were at Alisha's mother's house on Friday. They were saying that it is 'the fastest mutating strain' they've seen, so they can't keep up with whatever they do to change the vaccine.

People are getting WHOOPED by it. Mum has been sick for two weeks, Dad, easily ten days - I'm still eating C&F tablets after a week! You just feel like it's something different each time. I had a runny nose, then I had a cough and didn't use a tissue, then I had evil aches and pains, now I just feel like someone poured quickset into my ears and filled my head with concrete!

Hope it doesn't strike you too hard this time around!

You can drive this turbo, legally! Yay! I think it suits you.

Hahaha, that interior is infinitely less shit than what I thought it would be!

IS IT HOME TIME YET????

PORTLAND, Maine — A civilian laborer set a fire that caused $400 million in damage to a nuclear-powered submarine because he had anxiety and wanted to get out of work early, Navy investigators said Monday.

Casey James Fury, 24, of Portsmouth, N.H., faces up to life in prison if convicted of two counts of arson in the fire aboard the USS Miami attack submarine while it was in dry dock May 23 and a second blaze outside the sub on June 16.

Fury was taking medications for anxiety and depression and told investigators he set the fires so he could get out of work, according a seven-page affidavit filed Monday in U.S. District Court in Portland.

Fury made his first court appearance Monday afternoon but did not enter a plea.

People who appeared to be family members attended the hearing but declined to comment. His federal public defender, David Beneman, did not speak in court and earlier in the day also declined to comment to The Associated Press.

The Miami was in dry dock at Portsmouth Naval Shipyard in Kittery, Maine, for an overhaul when the fire damaged the torpedo room and command area inside the forward compartment. It took more than 12 hours to extinguish.

A second fire was reported June 16 on the dry dock cradle on which the Miami rests, but there was no damage and no injuries.

Fury, who was working on the sub as a painter and sandblaster, initially denied starting the fires but eventually acknowledged his involvement, the affidavit states.

He admitted setting the May 23 fire, which caused an estimated $400 million in damage, while taking a lie-detector test and being told by the examiner he wasn't being truthful.

Fury told Timothy Bailey, an agent for the Naval Criminal Investigative Service, that "his anxiety started getting really bad," so he grabbed his cigarettes and a lighter, walked up to a bunk room and set fire to some rags on the top bunk.

The Navy originally said the fire started when an industrial vacuum cleaner sucked up a heat source that ignited debris inside.

Fury said he set the second fire after getting anxious over a text-message exchange with an ex-girlfriend about a man she had started seeing, according to the affidavit. He wanted to leave work early, so he took some alcohol wipes and set them on fire outside the submarine.

Fury said he initially lied about setting the fires "because he was scared and because everything was blurry to him and his memory was impacted due to his anxiety and the medication he was taking at the time," according to the affidavit.

Fury told NCIS agent Jeremy Gauthier that he was taking three medications for anxiety, depression and sleep, and a fourth for allergies. He checked himself into an in-patient mental health facility on June 21 and checked himself out two days later, the affidavit reads.

If convicted of either charge, Fury could face life imprisonment and a fine of up to $250,000 and be ordered to pay restitution, officials said.

Magistrate Judge John Rich III scheduled a combined detention and probable cause hearing for next month. The U.S. attorney's office has filed a motion asking that Fury be held without bail.

It's actually a proven fact, that vaccinations are merely a cellular lottery.

They get about a hundred or so strains that were prevalent from the year or two before... Weaken them, and inocculate us with it. Then this years strains hit us (which are totally different to the vaccination) and we still get sick.

I try not to take the vaccinations, but here in NSW we're faced with it, as part of our renewed employment contract.

No jab, no job.

It was interesting, Brett mentioned this was the first year in five (I think he said five) that he'd not had the jab. And he was sick as all Posted Image.

I've never had a flu shot in my life. I always thought the amount of alcohol I drink just naturally wards off any flu like disease - and just brings on little things, like liver and heart disease?

Were you dropped and seriously abused as a child? Seriously dude, how many times do you want to ask the same damn question and get the same answer. Your liberty is a wrecker worthy boonger that should not be fixed, it needs to be scrapped. End of story.

No irony lost here
