andy, if the difference in sallary is of a relative size compared to the extra amount u will be putting in, then i'd say yeah go for it...but weren't u and anna looking to move down to NSW in a year or so? that could influence ur decision also as it wouldnt seem logical to start a new, more demanding job to pack up and leave 12 months down the track

meguiars (polish n paint cleaner)

you know you do not need to use that stuff everytime you wash your car hey??

its only for cleaning off different products..ie preparing your paint for meguiars to be used...like a base coat

Do you stay with a very cruisy, good but not great paid job that is not very challenging...or do you take a well paid job, that will likely work you like a dog and challange you

Personally I would prefer working like a dog and getting challenged...I have only ever been really challenged once whilst working and that was because I was performing in 2 full time roles in my office...yes thats right people, 2 full time jobs...I was working anything between 60-70hrs per week, plus doing uni...

but where is the job loyalty? no one wants to be loyal to their employer anymore coz employers are not loyal to the worker.

The thing is Andy, will this boost your career opportunities and enable you to find an even better job should you and Anna decide to move to Sydney in a year or so....or is the job already in Sydney??

Yeah I get that...but the whole Sydney thing is up in the air cause Anna is possibly starting uni, If she likes it we will be here for 3 years at least.

Yeah I think you are right!

Plus with this job there is a chance of working on the Gold Coast! I could handle that

yep i know its jut to be used as a base, but all the times i've used it has been on 'fresh' cars

i dont know how people like urself can do that, i mean a 40hr week is bad enough and u woulda had heaps of responsabilities!

but where is the job loyalty? no one wants to be loyal to their employer anymore coz employers are not loyal to the worker.

from my experience (albeit of only a few years) it seems that most job decisions are money driven

yeh i did...was only about 23 too...was the Rates Manager (like an Accountant of sorts) which was my normal job at the time, and the IT Manager. It wasn't so much that I was challenged mentally, but I was BUSY everyday, which I really enjoyed

from my experience (albeit of only a few years) it seems that most job decisions are money driven

Yep agreed...if employers paid people what they are worth rather than have them leave, then people would be happy to stay with the one employer. Also if people were offered a genuine career path, again the inclination to leave would not be as great IMO.

A lady I worked with in Sydney was the Payroll Manager...she asked for a payrise (not overly much but a few grand or so)...it was knocked back so she left and got a new job, paying more than she originally asked for with her previous employer. Some months after her departure, her previous employer was having trouble filling her old position as Payroll Manager, so they had to increase the salary on offer. So she applied for her old job back. They interviewed her of course (EEO) and she hit them up for more money again and she got her old job back :/

Had someone in charge had any brain whatsoever, they would've just paid the lady the increase she asked for, rather than go through all that crap, just to get her back anyway :)

I know exactly what you are saying...my longest job ever has only been 3.5 years...but most of mine have barely made 12 months :)

The 3.5 year job, I was whinging for something different/challenging to do after about 6 months. I wasn't given anything different to do really...I stayed coz I didn't think I could get a job elsewhere

That is like my sister! Set up a department in QR...Quit becuase she was at the top of her payscale with no view to getting more...then QR found she was the only one who knew how to run the department and they had to hire het back as a consultant for $250 and hour and she was doing the same job :/

      RB25DE NEO with Haltech ECU

      By Haggerty · Posted

      I seem to the be only person that is using a Haltech 2500 on an NA motor, I've installed a Bosch DBW throttle body to the OEM intake manifold and am having problems maintaining AFR even with the wideband o2.  It will run extremely rich at idle and up to redline, but under load it will go extremely lean in the 20s and i'm essentially having to rev it over 4k and feather the clutch to get it up to speed.  I've read a few other threads of about the butterfly, it seems removing the vacuum to it is supposed to have it remain open, i've noticed no difference under 4k with the vacuum line to it plugged.  I'm hoping someone here has had luck using the NA manifold with Haltech, and if they happen to have a tune for it.

      I don't know any details, but I really wouldn't be surprised if they do it as a LHD only version, at least initially.

      What should I do next to hold the head on

      By Gareth87 · Posted

      Thanks for the replies everyone. Definitely a coolant push. Oil catch can is empty and always has been. As the engine is out now I'll be having a good look over things. I do have some detonation on the piston tops from a trigger issue back about 5 years ago. I felt it and shut off then bought a new ecu and changed the trigger. Never been an issue since. It never hurt the power, its made almost 80hp more since that incident but I will pull the bearing caps to take a look. If the bearings are damaged I will do a bottom end refresh. Head is being re conditioned at the moment and the block will be cleaned and checked to ensure it's flat. I'll go with a kameari gasket and see how it ends up. The other thing I'm not super keen on is the cylinder colours. I suspect this is from the inlet manifold. The plan will be to put it back together, retune and then stick a plazmaman billet inlet on it and retune. I'm happy with the power, if it makes a little more, then great, but I would rather just make everything more efficient at this stage.

      Maybe they'll look to do a bunch of presales to help inject some cash fast for their financial issues...

      Does it also misfire equally when revving?   Josh is very correct in what you should do. The coilpack harness wiring loom itself is a known problem due to its age and the number of heat cycles it has gone through. Throwing parts at a vehicle to diagnose the issue isn't a smart or good way to do it. Secondly, you may have a bad coil pack, you pop replacements in, they fix that issue, but messing with the harness breaks it, so the issue persists. So now you think "well it wasn't the coil packs" and have to continue chasing your tail, potentially swapping back in your shit coil packs and returning the good ones (yes, I've seen people do this because 'it wasn't the problem' and they want to save money). And suddenly, you've got two issues with the same symptoms...   Diagnose, don't use the spare parts shotgun.
