Dude. I am not sure how I feel about this switch from OICs or it didn't happen, to videos.... Good work either way. Rad/Red 521.

Gold is the most non renewable substance that has assigned value on the face of the earth. We use it all the time. (because its "useful") We just cant make more of it. We as an entire planet also horde it into banks and safes and other secret places. My nudging of the conversation was that we cherry pick the "non renewables" we get "upset" about. How much oil is used to mine for gold?

I suppose the idea of conversation to me is more along the lines of, we haven't been producing oil based products. Then we found oil. As a closed system, the earth made crude oil from "stuff", pressure heat time... so we give it a bit of a head start by leaving polymers around. The earth breaks it down again. Yes, I agree, I do not want to eat tuna that has "breathed" plastic into its lungs. I just want to talk about what really is the problem using these items, not the "not renewable" aspect./ Lets stop using gold then. No one can make that shit garbage of an element. USELESS if you ask me.

What is happening here?

Maybe the Sumerians had plastic that they buried. Maybe we just have to keep doing that. If you can't explain where is came from, then you can't say its not renewable. Its like saying I picked all the tomatoes and didn't plant anymore. The earth created oil somehow. It also "was like 1000%" on fire before it cooled and formed life. So life essentially formed from pure pollution distilling itself. I'm not arguing with you, about us not knowing how to make it, I am however saying that its not settled science. Greenhouses pump in "deadly emissions" for the plants to grow larger and be healthier. I have read more than one article about how we are actually in a c02 drought as far as food production is concerned. (Not taking into account for human air quality.)

I was reading awhile back that oil wells were "filling back up" after being drained. So where does that oil come from exactly?

Wayno, you have been here as long, or longer then I have. I agree with you about Bill. If we could all just stop caring what the /polrats think or say, then we would be better off. We should all just be creating the world around us best we can. Its really the only way to live, to make an environment we want to exist in.

My Idea is exactly this. I just don't want to be forced to buy an experimental oil, when I already like the oil that I buy and has worked for years.

Iv'e personally never locked one up.. ha. must be a good idea to make a cover plate./ I look too mike for the approval. never seen a first post with a completed profile already. including a sig.

Rad! I haven't even looked at mine in a couple years.. I have a cracked windshield. Ill trade you! I was looking into getting ten windshields made. but I would need to find people to buy them.

Because of the Hyundai forum that just popped up/ Do you know the thread count on those seats?

A stock 1970 510 speedo cog pinion does fit on a 90s era KA trans.. What they did was keep the same design for the digital sending unit and rotate the offset just about 180 degrees. I have gotten the stock speedo to work mechanically by simply rotating the speed sending unit until it fits in and then cutting a new retaining slot where one needs to be to correspond to the stock bolt hole in the transmission. In the five ten you need a longer speedo cable because of the longer ka trans. if you dont care about stock speedos maybe you could just do that in reverse? Take the later model digital speed sending unit and adapt it to a speedo that is adjustable? I don't know for sure, just an idea I have had floating around. Its not too hard to pop the needle off and mount a stock faceplate to newer speedo internals. For myself, since I have never gotten different gears to be accurate throughout the range of my engine,trans,diff...( I have a dogleg in my 521.) I shoot for my speedo to be accurate at around 60, rather the freeway speed near me. Simple so I know when I am speeding for sure, when I pass that cop pointing his gun shaped speed sensing device at me.. Otherwise I just drive like I normally drive and ignore the speedo. I care more about the tach personally. In America we have digital speed signs; In the past I find one close to my house, and test out the speedometer by driving past it at certain speeds. It is also still legal (as for helping a driver) for someone in America to ask a nice policeman to drive the speed limit and have you follow them so you can check your speedometers accuracy.. might be able to get out of a ticket by politely asking for that as well. I mean you just swapped transmissions and put bigger tires on, even though it felt shaky at the "highway" speeds, you were just trying to get home so you could adjust things. All you "have" is your guages and they may have been affected by the mods..

"ford 9 inch is the only option.." ha. Just shorten the axel tubes is what I have been told. 1 out of ten times I get informed about toyota stuff..

My Datsun's still technically live in portland. Yet I drive to other states for work. I still need to come up and just fuck around giving you a hand around your shop Ted. Its just been hard to find free time these days.

Shit! I live close enough.. Just couldn't make it work with work. I would have loved to see that patrol. It looks like a good turnout.
