Thanks guys :mellow:

Have applied for nightfill posis which is ideal, but I can't sit around waiting for their phone call.

(I don't think dominos would even cover the untuned fuel guzzling silvia im borrowing at mo! lol)

Unforetunately not, even though you get the normal pay rate plus $1.20 per deliery and a guaranteed paid 2 deliveries per hour.

Thats what it used to be when I worked there :(

No problem mitchy :O

Thanks Liz, that's a great suggestion! I always mention it to friends and hadn't even considered it for myself. Off goes the resume. Do they have an aftermarket parts section? hahaha speaking of cars, could even try supercheap.

Nat - go into your local Bunnings and ask to fill out an application form and hand it in with your resume. All the stores are always looking for people. There are also night fill roles available.

Also there is HouseWorks in Joondalup - which is like an Ikea store. This is also owned by Bunnings, you could try there as well?

im not really after anotherjob now, hah!

i mentioned to my boss i was looking for one, and he said "why didnt you just ask for a pay rise?"

i was on the 19yr old wage (80% of full adult), but becuase he thinks im worth it, and im now 3IC, im on full adult wage :)

Wtf...is tax really that much for people working 2 jobs?! Obviously if someone wants to work 2 jobs it's because they need more cash, not to fund the doll bludgers and govt head pay rises! >:(

I'll look into it...otherwise its the mines for me.

Mitchy- Well done, what a score! Wish it was that easy for me.

Thats right - you can only claim the tax free threshold for one job. So youwill need to fill out a tax declaration form when you start a new job, if its your second job you can't tick the box to claim the threshold. Its illegal to claim it for more than one job.

Your second job is then taxed at the full rate which is like 49% or something - and then it doesnt make it worth it in some cases.

There will be more info on www.ato.gov.au

if ya 18 a local pub. i was on 15 dollars an hour, you get pretty much the shifts you want and weekends. most places will be more the one i worked at the boss was a stinge but yeah or a night club... i knwo they all pay well... always looking for bar staff and glassies. if ya can pour a beer.. (which is easy just tilt the glass!) then ya sweet :wub:

    • I thought that might be the case, thats what I'll start saving for. Thanks for the info 
    • Ps i found the below forum and it seems to be the same scenario Im dealing with. Going to check my ECU coolant temp wire tomorrow    From NICOclub forum: s1 RB25det flooding at start up Thu Apr 11, 2013 7:23 am I am completely lost on this. Car ran perfectly fine when I parked it at the end of the year. I took the engine out and painted the engine bay, and put a fuel cell with an inline walbro 255 instead of the in tank unit I had last year. After reinstalling everything, the engine floods when the fuel pump primes. if i pull the fuel pump fuse it'll start, and as soon as I put the fuse back in it starts running ridiculously rich. I checked the tps voltage, and its fine. Cleaned the maf as it had some dust from sitting on a shelf all winter, fuel pressure is correct while running, but wont fire until there is less than 5psi in the lines. The fuel lines are run correctly. I have found a few threads with the same problem but no actual explanation of what fixed it, the threads just ended. Any help would be appreciated.

I found the problem though. There was a break in one of the ecu coolant temp sensor wires. Once it was repaired it fired right up with no problems. I would have never thought a non working coolant temp sensor would have caused such an issue.
    • Hi sorry late reply I didnt get a chance to take any pics (my mechanics on the other side of the city) but the plugs were fouled from being too rich. I noticed the MAF wasn't genuine, so I replaced it with a genuine green label unit. I also swapped in a different ignitor, but the issue remains. I've narrowed it down a bit now: - If I unplug and reconnect the fuel lines and install fresh spark plugs, the car starts right up and runs perfectly. Took it around the block with no issues - As soon as I shut it off and try to restart, it won't start again - Fuel pressure while cranking is steady around 40 psi, injectors have good spray, return line is clear, and the FPR vacuum is working. It just seems like it's getting flooded after the first start I unplugged coolant sensors to see if its related to ECU flooding but that didnt make a difference. Im thinking its related to this because this issue only started happening after fixing coolant leaks and replacing the bottom part of the stock manifolds coolant pipe. My mechanic took off the inlet to get to get to do these repairs. My mechanics actually just an old mate who's retired now so ill be taking it to a different mechanic who i know has exp with RBs to see if they find anything. If you have any ideas please send em lll give it a try. Ive tried other things like swapping the injectors, fuel rail, different fuel pressure regs, different ignitor, spark plugs, comp test and MAF but the same issue persists.
    • My return flow is custom and puts the return behind the reo, instead of at the bottom. All my core is in the air flow, rather than losing some of it up behind the reo. I realise that the core really acts more as a spiky heatsink than as a constant rate heat exchanger, and that therefore size is important.... but mine fits everything I needed and wanted without having to cut anything, and that's worth something too. And there won't be a hot patch of core up behind the reo after every hit, releasing heat back into the intake air.
    • There is a really fun solution to this problem, buy a Haltech (or ECU of your choice) and put the MAF in the bin.  I'm assuming your going to want more power in future, so you'll need to get the ECU at some stage. I'd put the new MAF money towards the new ECU.
