hey bud, where abouts are you from?

I started my apprenticeship with Ford - Bayford. I have school payed for and is pretty much the most technically advanced schooling. Getting to work at the Campbellfield ford school working on brand new engines, Gearboxes etc. On my 3rd year now, and im currently doing 3rd year schooling, Qualified Tech training, Advanced diagnostics and just starting my EFI Tuning.

We are always looking for people with a good head on their shoulders to work, Its not really fun at the start, just services etc. Its nothing like a performance workshop, you dont "build" engines and stuff. More diagnostics, remove refit, and repair. Alot of the guys who come and "claim" they love cars and cars are their life, they show no interest or anything towards the job. If you show your interest to gain all you can in mechanics you will get far :thumbsup: trust me.

Cheers, Phill

Dont bother signing up with anyone...

Just send your resume out to everywhere you would be keen on working.

I guarantee you will get more then a dozen phone calls for interviews etc.

Try BMW in the city, ford essendon, sunbury holden, mitsubishi essendon. They are all taking on apprentices.

I sent out approx 40-50 resumes when i was looking for one and had the phone ringing non stop.

who do you thinks employs you? you automatically get signed up with apprenticeships plus or something along those lines, benefits are great. 800 dollar tfyt voucher, 500 bucks after every year you do your apprenticeship. No one these days are employed through the company itself. Ford is my host employer and app plus is my base employer. Thats how it works.

I'm gonna agree with Phill here, being with a group training company is good :)

I'm currently employed by MEGT and work for Zagame Citroen in West Melbourne, I've been with MEGT for about over a year now, they looked after me while I was doing VCAL in year 11 and now my apprenticeship. Get your TFYT after 3 months in.. and if you are eligible can get up to about $2000 over 2 years of incentives. Never had any major dramas. Pay on time every week and super paid every week. And it really makes finding a job easier.

Good luck with it mate :thanks:

even if you have a fall out with ur employer, you can get put into another workplace very quick with a group training..

i cant c how bad it can b? tools payed for, everything on time every time. 1 month holidays a year. 500 bucks in your pocket tax free every chrissy.

Only needa do that for 4 years thru your apprenticeship and your set.

I finished my year 12, passed and wrote up a decent resume. I then applied for every mechanic apprenticship position available and went to all the interviews in a suit. Within a few weeks i had been accepted by ALL and i ended up choosing BMW over Ford, Hodlen, Mazda etc.

The best decision i made was BMW, they offer not only a great fair and well payed apprenticship but many other extras such as BMW school which is located in Mulgrave. This BMW schooling has got to be by far the best training and easily put you ahead of all the other mechanics out there.

The training is not only amazing but the technology of BMW and other german cars is far beyond the reach of ford, holden, mazda etc.

My 2 cents, hope it helps :cool:

      first time swapping rb25det into r34

      This sounds like a perfect excuse to install a Haltech R3.

      I do believe from context he is talking about a S0/S1 R33 RB25 with associated ECU and Wiring for that, and a manual gearbox into a R34 N/A Auto. I don't have the knowledge of all the pinouts and such but my gut feeling from doing my own conversion is to use as much of the R33 stuff that you can. The "car" wiring is quite seperate from the "Engine" wiring when all things are considered. The only things to truly consider 99% of the time is the cluster, reverse lights and potentially disabling the 'not in P/N' immobilizer circuit.

      Rusty roof repair

      By GTSBoy · Posted

      A realistic expectattion of how long it has to last also comes down to.... when do you think you will be banned from registering and driving old petrol powered shitters? It's 27 years since that thing was built. It probably rusted out 15 years ago. It was probably repaired and looked OK for another 10. If you do a similarish bodge job now, or perhaps slightly better with some actual rust conversion and glassing, then.... get another 10-15 years out of it, after which you'll only be permitted by the CCP to drive electric cars manufactured in their Shenzen zone anyway.

      Let me assume that the concern over a manual ECU is that the NeoDET that you have was an auto and has an auto ECU. That ECU will not be a problem, but you WILL have to Nistune it. And you would have to Nistune it even if you had a manual ECU, because the turbo ECUs will shit the bed if they do not have all the things that they were told they have to have, to be happy. The big one being the TCS CU, which you won't have in your car. Anyway, with an auto ECU (which I have running my originally auto NeoDET in an R32) Nistune allows you to put in a Stagea image which doesn't panic about the absent TCS, and allows you to override a whle bunch of other annoyances that would otherwise see the check engine light on 100% of the time. Also, you can't wind up the power very far on the stock NeoDET ECUs without Nistune, because the boost sensor gets in the way. Nistune allows you to push that problem much further up the dial. Do you even have the boost sensor with the engine? Without it, you are SOL and will need an aftermarket ECU (or to find a sensor somewhere, god knows where). I can't tell you what the wiring loom differences are in a 34. But what Duncan said above needs to be considered. When you say "loom", does that include the transmission loom? Because you will need to swap out the auto tranny loom for the equivalent manual loom, and get rid of the neutral/park start interlock (basically hot wire it).

      I have had the r3c in for years now, maybe close to 7 years and it has never missed a beat, anyone can drive it. Super easy to drive around town, the hotter it gets does get a little hard but it holds the power easy as
