Nick just tell him to go buy a supra. None of this conversion stuff thanks

I heart conversions, do something different... I hate reading performance imports and the like and seeing the same thing over and over bores the shit out of me

Sweet ;) 6.3, what's he got like a 408 Windsor?

The cousin I was just talking about has an xt ('67) ute and an xb gt 4 door as well... I think he's a drug dealer lol

Other mates got a real clean xc ute with a built auto and ratchet shifter as well as an xr6 turbo

Not sure what it was based off. All I know it's for the effort it does not make near enough power. It's in an au ute. Some company made it for him about 10 years ago. Was in Street machine and was meant to go into production but never did.

I usually do at least 60 hours a week. And then got told in a meeting yesterday that we don't do enough. :/

Unless you are getting over 250k you are not being paid enough for those hours.

I do close to 60 hours a week and I'm on way way way way way less than 250 thousand :(

Not on $250k a year. My salary dropped something chronic in the last 12 months. :(

You know what the problem is, employers will always want their employees to do "more" work for less or the same money, and employees always want to do less work for more money.

My salary is directly proportionate to what I bill so have no issues working longer hours.

If I know I need to leave early one day for a club event or whatever, I'll pull in the hours on other days. But to do this and then be told that we're taking the piss and not putting in the hours is a shit statement to make.

Most people are in here from 8-4:30. Im here from 7:30-8ish through till 7-8pm easily.

I do 5-1 Monday to Wednesday and 5-7 Thursday Friday and work every second Saturday... I never claim my jobs to be overly difficult but anyone who's worked in customer service/retail will tell you how much it can take out of you

Some humans are wankers

I could never do customer service. Even now I have to deal with people way too much.

I guess when there is no job market your lounge of work can be some what problematic

This as well as a few other factors that have been draining on my time has made life extremely frustrating.

Let's just say that my drop in salary is roughly equivalent to a new decent car...

I bet if we tallied up the hours you spent on here whilst working that '60hours' a week would suddenly be more like 40 if not less!

    • 2001 BE5D Subaru Legacy B4 RSK (3rd gen) EJ208 (pink injector) Twin Turbo 280PS 5-speed manual Full time 4WD "RSK" grade which means all of the above LQC option which means stock rear spoiler  I got it primarily to export to someone outside Japan who was interested. These BE5 Legacy B4 RSKs are going through a bit of a resurgence right know in Japan as they are one of the few cars from the "turbo, manual, RWD/4WD, 280hp gentleman's agreement era" cars that don't require stupid money to purchase. Which for some people might be a good opportunity to get as a base for restoration. If I can't find anyone to purchase it I will certainly be doing that myself over the long term. Why? Because it's properly fast in stock form, handles well enough for a GT sedan, there's still enough aftermarket and (if you can wait a while) genuine part support to make it a restoration candidate (<-- that will only get worse over time so it's a case of do it now or choose get a BL5 4th Gen). Mechanically it's fine, has only 89,200kms on the odometer. The problem with this car is that the body and exterior trims are weathered from at least the last 10 years being parked outdoors. I'm the 3rd owner, the first owner was the one that had it for 14 years and barely drove it, had a low-speed front impact (which didn't damage anything behind the radiator support) and got it fixed and sold it. The 2nd owner put most of the kms on it and parked it outside for the last 10 years, hence the door rubbers have seen better days but if you overlook those cosmetic details, it presents pretty nicely. There is some minor rust on the LH rear wheel arch which I'll have looked at too at some stage.  Also as you'd expect from a car this age, the clear top coat is gone, leaving a satin finish on the roof.  Mechanically it's fine (as you would expect from a car with less than 100K kms) but the steering does feel slightly vague around the centre position at higher speeds. So first on the list is to get the steering rack bushes looked at. There's also the Lock button on the remote which doesn't work, but the Open button does.... it means that the anti-theft system thinks it's always open? It seems like if you open the car and don't start the engine within 3 mins or so the anti-theft kicks in again without any beeps or signals. So if you got to start it after that, it won't. You have to push the open button again. That's how I understand it anyway. Just a small irritation but not a big problem to sort out. There's only one mod, the Wangan SPL muffler. Just a tad louder than stock. It's a really good mod for those who don't want to wake the neighbours but still want to hear a more prominent unequal length header EJ20 sound. Anyway I hope to get all those things done eventually, that is unless someone wanted to import it to their country from Japan (where I live). I'm open for negotiations as I really would like a Skyline... but this will definitely suffice in the meantime 🙂 *Disclaimer: This is how I picked it up from the dealer, minus the stuff on the back seat. I haven't cleaned the engine bay or done a thorough exterior clean, aside from spray painting the wipers. 
    • Wow, even with the Audi logo centre caps. I love OEM wheel mismatches. 
    • Welcome!  Can't go wrong with a Stag.
    • Looks good. Nice height.
    • Hey all, a little help from the Stagea hive mind plz.. I'm days away from buying either a 2002 Stagea 250tRS AR-X Four, premium leather, power seats and all the old switches etc that go with it, or a 2002 Stagea 250tRS VR-X Four AERO, pov pack, cloth seats etc, with coil overs, sports zorst, comes with original zorst and suspension and parts. (I think I've got the models right?) Both are VQ25DET, have 160000kms, both straight no rust both with $2000+ in recent servicing receipts, both ride on aftermarket 18" rims. The Aero has a replaced turbo as well. I like the cool factor of the Aero car but the AR-X has never been modified. Neither have been driven hardly at all in the last 5 years. Any thoughts on which one or does it come down to personal preference? davemoto
