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:

    • @666DAN sorry to bring you and old thread.     I've got my de+t done and it's all running great other than 1 small issue.    Car has remained auto with the na auto and tcm, I've used a stagea ecu with. NIstune board and everything is great other than my gear selection on the dash. It illuminates park, reverse, neutral, 3rd and 2nd when selected . But nothing when in  drive or what gear your in when you pop it into tiptronic. I'm sure there is maybe 1 wire in the ecu plug I need to move to rectify this. Do ya have any ideas?     Cheers man
    • Well I recently changed my rear axles and was thinking if I bumped anything, I have been driving the car for a while now though... But it has been raining today so everything is wet under the wheel arches. Brakes feel fine and can't hear any of the metal screamers, I had a squeak coming from one of the handbrake drums but that seems to have gone away a while ago. I was going down a hill when it lit up and I did feel the abs bite for a second and question why it did it?
    • Correct. Um. I dunno. I haven't cared enough about the way that the NA cars work to know for sure. But..... The 33/34 turbo manual cars have an electronic speed sensor in the gearbox that outputs a +/- (ie, sawtooth AC) voltage signal. That is connected to the speedo. The speedo then outputs a 0-5v square wave (ie, PWM) signal that the ECU (and any other CU on the bus) sees. The speed sensor is NOT directly connected to the ECU. So here's the problem. Your new ECU expects to see the PWM signal, but must somehow be getting a direct signal from the diff speed sensor. Which would suggest that the wiring of the NA car is not the same as the turbo cars. I think you will need to spend some time with (hopefully the wiring diagram for the car) and a multimeter to see what is connected to what. Then, presuming I am correct**, you would then want to separate the ECU speed signal input from the rest of the car's wiring, and probably either buy a speed signal converter, or build one using an arduino (or similar). That would take in the speed sensor signal and output a scaled (and suitably rearranged) signal for the ECU. ** We shouldn't presume that I am correct here, because there might be something else crazy going on. I don't think you could convert the speedo to be fed from the gearbox sensor, because the pulse rate from that sensor is probably different to the diff sensor and then the speedo would read wrongly. And this also wouldn't fix the ECU's problem either, because the ECU doesn't want to see the gearbox signal direct either (assuming that they are all on the same wiring, for some odd NA related reason, see above caveat!) Does this help? Probably not. Can you make it work? Almost certainly. With the above work. You should buy a handheld oscilloscope from Aliexpress so that you can view these signals directly. Connect up the probes and drive the car. Show photos of the screen when drving at known speeds and connected to different places, and we'll see what we can learn about it.
    • Assuming your brake pads are not worn right down, I'd add a little brake fluid. Is there any sign of a brake fluid leak?
    • Hello all,  I need of some help. On my drive home my handbrake light lit up and started flashing. When I got home I checked my handbrake sensor under the centre console and nothing seemed out of the ordinary. I have scanned my car via the consult port, no codes shown. Checked my brake fluid as well which is half full. Tried unplugging the brake master but it didn't change anything. Thoughts on what it could be? The master float doesn't seem to be stuck. My car is an 1998 ER34 sedan GT. No hicas but has ABS Photos below 👇🏾
