lol after holding it in for awhile i got a confession to make

I work for Jetstar

Been in their customer call centre for about 3 months now and i tell you - they are a bunch of cheap skates. The only reason their airfares are so cheap is beacuse they have strict-ass policies on everything. No compassion or remorse for those flying due to death or family reasons. Its a bit of a hard job especially when ppl call up urgently needing to cancel/book flights due to deaths and we get told we can't help them. My first bit of advice given was to leave my heart at the door.

Also, i've never known of an airline that has so many schedule changes and cancellations with their flights.

These delays pale into insignificance to what I once endured.

Airr New Guinea isn't nown for reliability.

Delayed in Syd for 4 hrs, then delayed inn Brisbane for 3 days (no, that's not a typo) Plane was due to fly @ 6am on day 3. Arrived and was delayed until 18:30 that night!

We got owned!

Omurru your probably right bout the jstar asia 320s being the same age....

So where do you work? Qantas hangers? Im always down there hasselling engineers on when the planes are gonna be towed up to the gate!

Jetstar suck ass! was flying back from whitsundays to melb via brissie. we had a 3 hr stopover in brissie before boarding a qantas flight. but jetstar being the morons they are, we were 4 hrs late and missed the qantas flight. jetstar wouldnt pay for anything. no free food or drinks on the flight. no taxi vouchers at brissie, no hotel room for the night. nothing! PEOPLE, STAY AWAY FROM JETSTAR!

Qantas FTW!

last few months I have been working up at the terminal at qantas domestic. But as of tomorrow I am back to the workshops :P most of the time i'm in the main qantas 737 hangar though. The jetstar 320's get done by aaes or whatever the f**k it's called now, john holland or something. Went for a drive over there the other day to have a look around, it's like a boneyard over there random planes all over the joint missing bits :P

    • A 1.5 way is a 2 way. It is just a 2 way with a less aggressive ramp on overrun.
    • The ABS and/or TCS being missing/broken will not cause the engine to misbehave. It just casues CEL to come on and annoy you. The CEL is useless if it is always on, so you have to do the things you have to do to get rid of it, so it can be useful. Being a Stag ECU, then yes, it will not expect TCS to be present. But it will expect ABS to be present and working. You will need to either make the ABS CU talk to the ECU (don't ask me what that will take on an NA R34), and make sure the hardware is working....or, you just need to blank it out in Nistune. Do not persist with the stock ECU. You will just have problems. Gte it Nistuned. Start from there. DO YOU HAVE A BOOST SENSOR? The ECU's boost sensor that it. It is connected to the loom at the rear of the coil cover. Usually rides on the firewall on an R34, but is usually bolted down to a bracket along with all the other crap at the back of the coil cover when a Neo is dropped into another car. If you do not have it, the ECU will shit the bed. So, do you have one?
    • So sadly the fuel pump etc was not it. The pump and filter is new and it is still cutting around 4000 rpm. A read something about ABS/TCS (engine is from stagea and ECU too so no TCS) and i dont know for 100% that my car has ABS. It has ABS "cube" in engine bay but i dont think it works(or at least from my braking experience). Can be something like that?  I will be driving the car next week to Nistune tuner to properly see what is wrong...  
    • the Tomei LSD fluid with lsd kit. frustrated that it was shaking the car to crap and affecting everything else negatively, I pulled the diff last night, and removed the lsd carrier, could not find anything wrong, however it seem to be 100 locked up acceleration, and deacceleration, wondering if they sent me a 2 way not a 1.5??  either way I installed the stock open carrier back in place. test drove everything smooth as butter again. no shake, shutter, random, what felt like clutch slip and grab or drive shaft play, etc. something differently wrong in side the lsd. I might bother taking it apart (if possible) to figure out what's going on inside this carrier, as bought too long ago to return.  only draw back is its back to a one wheel wonder.
