Yeah i guess so... Ive been on the company mobile all morning...

Im working from home today... :P

I feel like a right wanker, i have 2 laptops set up out in front of the tv watching american chopper...

Here i am throwing the ball for the dog, drinking lemonade (cause i have a sore tummy) and chatting away on the forum on one laptop. Chatting with sydney on my work intranet on the other laptop and on the phone with customers...

I am even using bluetooth so i can have both hands free... :O

Are you in bed too? That would complete the above piccy for sure :O

How about a little bell too, so then when you want food or a drink you can "alert" someone to fetch it for you... :laugh:

col the business b!tch :O

but i'd quite gladly take ur paypacket :laugh:

I work hard for my money Shane...

:cough:

I have 5 away stay's in the next 2 weeks and the bill on my company amex this month os already over $3000... Opps... I just love steak, what can i say...

We get $1200 a month for entertainment for our customers ei. lunchs and trearts & bribes... Then up to $200 a day for accomodation when more than 110km's from the office... Plus $75 a day for food when away...

Have to say im very very very happy with the new job...

Arhhh no bell, no ones home to serve me either...

very unethical, but it certainly does go on (i assume its not that blatently advertised in ur company)

I have to say tho in all honesty...

The new job is allot harder, i mean there is allot more work. Im working about 60 hours a week atm...

Its just relationship building and maintaince... Of course there is product training and i have a million names and faces to remember also...

Its money well earnt to be honest...

Sounds like my old job. After 2 years I walked out over numerous reasons. My stress level is so much more user friendly now

The entertainment budget is in every sales reps budget...

I mean every sales rep has an amout to spend every month... If you dont spend it all ever month you will not get it next month... So to play the game you need to spend at least a grand a month...

But in saying that i took 5 people and myself to a really nice place in the city for lunch on Wednesday and for the 6 of us the bill came to $320. So it does not take many lunch's to use that money...

Yeah i left retail due to stress... I was being burnt by customers "wants" all the time...

I just got burnt out from 7 years at Harveys listerning to wankers tell me they know everything and demanding everything. I have seen in my 7 years there a employee punch a customer in the face...

Its quite common for people to snap under stress...

I needed to get into a job where the people i talk to and maintain relationships with an level headed and understand where im coming from. I wanted to deal with like minded people who respect me for who i am and not just as a salesman...

Canon will be a great job and has a awsome career path for me, and ill be staying there for a long time.

I didn't do retail :laugh: But yes, much the same never the less. The stress was huge. In reality the money was huge on paper, however add up the amount of hours you were working and what you would be spending during those hours almost nothing was saved.

    • Power steering is probably because someone has nuked the HICAS CU and you no longer have the variable power asist doing what it is supposed to. How much boost are you running? You are aware that any more than 10 psi on the stock ECU is just asking for it to go to full R&R (that's Rich & Retard, which is effectively Retarded and Retarded!) which kills all the power. Depending on the exact conditions, it can just be runnign on the fat and stupid end of the maps, then the conditions change, you make a little more boost and the ECU goes into panic.
    • @BuiltNotBought Just as GTSboy said.   If you want driveabilty and more low down torque..keep the stock runners. They are VERY good from a factory. I have them too on my RB25DET NEO and as a GTSboy i have fmic but with stock piping route(i have Blitz intercooler) Iam making around 320 BHP and the car pulls "hard" from like 2,5k all the way to 7k. I have it dyno tuned to mimic N/A power curve and making little less max torque due to the smallbox tranny. But driveability is very great. I had 350Nm below 3k so car feels very quick.
    • Looking to sort out a couple of issues on my skyline  It recently was rebuilt, however rebuilder long story short did not give two flying effs about the work he did. So moving forward it's running but I have two persistent issues 1) it has a misfire / lag type of issue (was at higher RPMs but I had a dead piggy back ecu removed which improved it) now it's not as bad but still does it at random, I thought it may have been a boost issue I'm running an older turbosmart dual stage controller, turbosmart told me to try running off gate pressure however it still has a lag at random times. It has New MAF, maf plug, coil packs, sparks, CP harness.. injectors tested and cleaned. Factory ECU. 2) Power steering issue. It is tight as anything. Flushed power steering, rebuilt my pump because the bearing was shot. Flushed again still tight (mainly when parking and going slow into my driveway etc)  No kinks in hard lines, replaced the lines I could see had cracks. Still tough to steer.  I was told to shim a coin and place into the solenoid plug? Is there anything else. My steering angle sensor also has a issue. It's a used one I replaced, does it need to be calibrated? I feel like I've tried everything and this car is my voodoo doll.   
    • Holy shit... wow!!! I totally missed this
    • One main filter. Each tank has a prefilter to keep rocks and small children out, then the big main filter that also does water separation. Clogged the first one so bad it was like a rev limiter at 3200rpm. Literally just like dropping the throttle off and maintaining rpm!
