which 1 i contract for them some times

Ringwood

Whereabouts in the organisation are you?

Just doing warehousing stuff. Picking & packing, loading containers and forklift driving.

$32 an hour plus you get all your overtime and stuff. Want to get out of there soon and finish off my plumbing apprenticeship but it's that damn pay that's keeping me there atm. They are opening a new warehouse in dandenong which won't be Cadbury run, most likely Toll or Linfox. Pay rate will prob drop to $18 an hour with those guys so i think i'll get out there when that happens

A couple of the guys that I used to work with run the IT dept. out at Ringwood, so I was wondering if you worked with them (most guys on here seem to be in IT in someway)

Do you have to have your car checked everytime you leave the place as well?

That happens at Schweppes in Tullamarine. The company I work for is contracted to do a bit of electrical work there.

It's funny though, all depends which security guard you get at the gate. Some just glance in the back of the van, while others will want to see inside your toolbox :cool:

Nope, we don't actually drive down... a few managers have reserved spots down there. The rest of us park in a carpark up the top of the hill and have to make the 8min walk up and down everyday :cool:

    • The stock one will outperform any aftermarket standard position exhaust manifold. If you don't believe me, do a back to back test (same turbo, same boost, same timing) and you'll be super surprised.
    • Any recommendations on a decent replacement manifold that doesnt break the bank or require additional mods for the stock turbo setup? I figure if I'm going to pull the manifold off anyway to fix the studs might as well replace it. 
    • So I checked the turbo out today. Very minimum play at all just enough for the oil to take up when it's running. I did find an exhaust leak at the manifold. 1 stud all the way in the front is missing and the one all the way in the back is broken off. Front has visible signs of an exhaust leak. I'll fix that soon but that's not my problem still.  I also found that the nipple coming off the turbo had the hose capped off and a hose ran from the j-pipe by the bov going to the wastegate. I removed that hose and capped that nipple and put the turbo nipple hose back on the wastegate.  There was a ton of oil residue all through the charge side of the intercooler piping going to the throttle bodg. I'm thinking that's from the pcv. Doesn't seem to be coming from the turbo that was all clean on the pipes side.  Haven't had a chance to check fuel pressure yet, haven't had time been having to pull a lot of doubles at work. I did pick up some carb cleaner to clean the iacv but wanted to make sure I had a fresh gasket in case the old one rips when I pull it off.  I'm waiting on a MAF that was supposed to be here today but delayed to Monday. Have a double Monday and Friday and work all of next weekend so going to try to find some time in the middle of the week to try that out. Did about a 10m trip around the block today and towards the end the issues were coming back. Fingers crossed on this MAF but if not just going to throw a fuel pressure gauge in and see where I'm at.  Did notice today that I can definitely hear the injectors pulsing. Very audible clicking coming from them. Assuming that's normal? Should also mean CAS is functioning somewhat properly. After it warmed up when I started it the intermittent misfires came in again. Did start doing that before it was fully warmed up. 
    • This morning I carefully reinstalled the manifold and started looking at a couple of things I need to do.  Heat wrap arrived sometime today so I popped into the shed with the missus dishwashing gloves and started wrapping the first half of the dump and the screamer/plumb back.  Once I do the second half I'll be able to final fit the turbo and exhaust up.  Also pulled the harness out today and started terminating it at the ECU end. A connector is done, just need to run the remaining wires that arent in the harness - 12v, gnd and couple I/O
    • A31 is pretty much the same thing without HiAIDS I mean CAS, no improvement lol. Not to late to send it.
