Hi all,

I'm seriously considering taking a job up in the sunshine coast working between the company's labs in buderim and noosa, just wondering if anyone could recommend a good location/suburb to look for rental properties, i've been on realestate.com and searched buderim and mooroocyhdore but the properties that come up are pretty expensive for what they are (ie: look like dumps!) unless i'm paying over $300p/w which is beyond my budget...

I dont mind a bit of a drive to work (but not too far!), so what areas are not too bogan or dodgy, and have reasonable facilities, i dont need to live next to a beach or on the waterfront or have fancy views either.

Will grab the local saturday paper this weekend and have a look but just asking if anyone can recommend an area to live in?

cheers :(

Unfortunatly thats the around the minium price for mainly houses up here now ( townhouses around $250-$270) ,rentals are hard to get and they go quick if they are available.Some not bad areas are kuluin,buddina and minyama.If you go into mooloolaba,its nice there but there aint cheap and it is getting bad for theft lately.

Just a thought if you can find people you can trust try share accomadation?

If you get luck you might get a person renting there property out privatly which is a bit cheaper too.

Good luck

well depends on price, i've been sharing for last 2 years so was kinda keen to get my own place but yeah depends...when are you moving? I can PM you if i end up taking the job if you like and we can go from there?

Actually i think i met you once on the bribie island cruise, all i can remember is that you mentioned something about rolling a r31? maybe it was someone else?

what kind of lab work do you do?

i did honours in a lab working with mice doing stem cell transplants and running the usual boring stuff like SDS-PAGE and ELISAs...

Tim and myself work for private pathology labs, do routine blood tests on patients - eg: hospital inpatients, after hours medical centres, but the bulk of the work comes from our company collection centres..VERY boring stuff and doesn't pay great either

What work are you in wazza? sounds like you must be in research or something

    • Yes, I know🙄 but the sequential is not in my budget... don't want to reduce power neither, so looks like I'm stuck in the rabbit hole🤣
    • You’ll be very upset when you bust that too not to mention the gearing totally sucks. Don’t do it.
    • Is the panel filter one that is oiled? Have you ever cleaned or touched the AFM?
    • So.... the K&N air box thingo was too big, ended up gifting it to a mate, well, by gifting it he actually supplied food and beer at the pub,  which was nice, as it will not sit on a shelf in the garage for the next 10 years I did trim up some of the existing stuff to neaten it all up and gave it some wrinkle paint, unfortunately it currently has a used and abused mish mash of different types of hose clamps, 4 big fat T bolt type (shit), and a few normal clamps of vairing sizes and brands, but..... only until the 6 constant tension black worm clamps that I ordered from EFI solutions turn up next week Currently the current hose clamps are triggering me hard, LOL Is this the final version, probably not, I really want just 2 silicone pieces, a straight bit of silicone from the filter to the MAF is easy and will happen as soon as I head into Just Jap tomorrow, the problematic part is a 30° silicone bend from the MAF to the TB that I can connect the engine breather from the head, I found that there are bulk head fittings for boat bilge pumps that should work, but until I can get a 30° silicone bend the alloy pipe, and the 11ty thousand hose clamps, are there for the foreseeable future 4 hose clamps are golden, 6 are grudgingly acceptable, the 8 currently holding it all together is just taking the piss    I've also ordered 60 more retaining wall blocks for the front yard, I mis-gonculated the height that was required to get above the base of the Photinia's (red robin's) that are the hedge behind the front fence, currently it is 2 blocks high, and about 1/2 a block short, so going 3 blocks high will be above the base of the red robin's, and allow some room for mulch
