im gona study aviation man lol. Good luck, man. I would hope you're VERY good at maths - there're pages and pages of formulae to memorise between the different subjects. i STRONGLY advise you to make sure you are very familiar with the Greek aphabet in upper and lower case as it is used extensively. I was lazy and had a hell of a job at the start keeping the terms straight. |

Some pics of my Mission to mt Maunganui to get the gemini. Was a two day thing ;D first day involved the chevette catching fire and the gemini loosing all power(including lights) and ending up in a ditch(taking out a road marker on the way ). Second day was when we went back for the gemini in the piazza.     Day2    When i got it home i took the diff out(in the rain on the side of the road ;D). Today i took the diff out of the chevette and put the gemini one into it. Didnt bother cleaning/servicing the diff or anything. Might top up the oil in the morning tho. Dont plan on using it much untill i find my piazza lsd head and brakes. Then ill get some decent oil, clean it up, wheel bearings etc.   Guna sort those shocks tomorrow! But im not sure if i have enough money to buy shocks...might rob the ones out of the gemini which are much better and newer gas ones. But nah ill check finances and if i have enough ill go order a pair of short ones for the rear  Gona pull the chevette engine out in the morning. Then get together my other holden gemini engine and box and try get that in the car. Kinda sucks cos i can only work in daylight and its always Barry Whiteing raining. Also gota go help Loceda tow the damn crown tomorrow haha pics fixed |
