Go easy on the poor kid, he will learn as he gets older. Most kids are like he is around the 14 - 16 mark, after that they tend to mature a little and put some effort into it.

Oh i'm sorry, i didn't know that english skills were something that came after 20 years old?

What do you want me to say? "thats ok tiger, you'll still have no problem getting and keeping a job"?

I wasn't intentionally being mean or offensive, mostly confused.

Go easy on him Mel...

His spelling is better than mine most of the time...

Spelling is not the end of the world, I still hold a good job and do well with my spelling...

Maths is where its at Prego... Maths gets you the good jobs...

No excuse for poor spelling! Either you don't know how or you CBF'ed (Lazy)

If it is the former, I blame the Government for not allowing the punishment I received back in the day. Listen hard and learn or you were punished.

If it is the latter, wake up to yourself. Col says spelling doesn't get you jobs?? How do you write a resume' if you cannot spell!!?? Maths may be nice to get along once you have it, but spelling gets you in the door.

How many times have I seen a judge throw a criminal case out because of a spelling error?? HEAPS!!!

I was in da 126 rcu for a few years and left due to being run by a bunch of f*&ck heads, who would premote friends and family over the people who actually put in the hard effort and learnt and could manage people. So I left because it was unfair.

Well my nickname was "G" (this was in about 95/96)

And I use a calculator if the math problem is too difficult....... your point is???

Laziness, pure laziness.

Too many pies and look what happens!!

Yeah but you can wing english... I mean i can speak...

Maths is one of those things you cannot wing, if the boss asks for figures you need to be accurate straight away and no i dont carry a calculator...

As i dont carry a spell checker either...

Anyways English vs Math is not the topic... Prego is the topic...

Go little feller, im still wating for damo's responce...

Dave I used Microsoft Word (With spell check) to write my resume...

Im not saying that spelling is not important, im just saying that I think Maths is more important...

word spellcheck is an american dictionary, and i'll laugh the day it gets picked up :huh:

word spellcheck is an american dictionary, and i'll laugh the day it gets picked up >_<

You must run inferiour versions Mel as there had been Australian content in Office 2000, 02 and 03... :O

Or you have your setting on US english...

Maths is gay Col, I have never used any of the things that I was taught after about grade 5

And on the English bashing...who cares. I put a lot more effort into my resume than my posts, spelling mistakes in an internet post do not mean the guy wont be able to write a resume FFS

English Nazis >_<

Fair point Andy grade 5 math is the basis's everyone needs to know... and yeah i did put more than 5 minutes into my resume also...

Internet posts are a spir of the moment thing...

But i promiss i will make an effort to use more large words that people dont understand, so i can feel smarter...

anyway... good story mate!

these bloody nicknames can stick with you.

I've been stuck with 'pear' for almost 20years

last year, my wife goes to get a tattoo - yep, she comes home with a bloody pear

*checks spelling & arithmetic - all good I fhink*

*smiles and nods*

SO now i half no why your nickname is prego.....

i dont think ill acually understand why you decided to keep it tho >_<

    • just an update to this, poor man pays twice  Tried sanding down the pulleys but it didnt do the trick. Chucked another second hand alternator in the na car which I got for free off my mate and its fixed the squelling. Must have been unlucky with the bearings.    As for my turbo car, I managed to pick up a cwc rb alternator conversion bracket + LS alternator for 250 off marketplace, looked to be in really good nick. Installed it , started the car and its not charging the battery.... ( Im not good with auto elec stuff so im not sure if this was all I needed to do but I verified such by using a multimeter on the battery when the engine was running and I was only getting 12.2v )   I had to modify the earth strap for the new LS alternator , factory earth strap was a 10mm bolt which did not fit the bolt on the LS alternator which was double the size so I cut it off , went to repco bought some ring terminals that fit, crimped it onto the old earth strap and bolted it up to the alternator , started the car and same issue. Ran like shit and was reading 12.2 at the battery.  For a "plug and play" advertised kit thats not very plug and play but alas.  My question is , am I missing something ? Ive been reading that some people recommend upgrading the stock 80 amp alternator fuse to a 140 amp but I dont see how that would stop the alternator charging especially at idle not under load.  Regardless ive pulled it out and am going to get it bench tested by an auto elec tomorrow but it would be handy to know if ive missed something silly or have done something wrong.   
    • My wild guess is that you have popped off an intake pipe....check all of the hoses between the turbo and the throttle for splits or loose clamps.
    • Awesome, thanks for sharing!
    • To provide more specific help, more information is needed. What Android screen? What is its wiring diagram? Does the car's wiring have power at any required BAT and ACC wires, and is the loom's earth good?
    • So, now all you need to do is connect the 2 or 3x 12v feeds into the unit to permanent 12v, ACC 12V and IGN 12V that you can find in the spot behind the stereo, and the earth, and then it will switch on with the car.
