Anyone seen the Farmers Union competition where you can win a year off (valued at $52K)?

I find this funny, because if I took a year off for the $52K, I'd be losing out :) I could always just collect the prize money and keep working, but I thought the scenario of me taking time off work funny. :)

Obviously the Farmers Union marketing department thinks people earning under $50K p.a. are the only ones to drink their milk products.

So ... who here drinks Farmers Union products and earn under $50K?

You may be paid less than a year of working but I would hardly say this is losing out!!!

I would love to get paid 52k to do f*#kall. Hell... I'd settle for just getting weekends off!!

Nah, I'd be losing moe than you'd think you would. I'd also be spending more if I had nothing to do. At least work keeps me busy and I don't buy crap ... well not much anyway :P

But I can see where you are coming from. I was once a factory worker earning under $20K once upon a time :O

= $1,095 per year. Do you claim that back around tax time? :P

I'd press to win the $52K and then add the $1,095 to your winnings for reimbursement!

Just think too, it only took 50 guys like you to fund this competition! :O

I earn close to that mark......and i am lactose intolerant so its a big no no for me....ahh well i would rather work for what i am getting now then have a year off and not do anything.....but thats just me.....work, play and party hard......

pepsi is cadbury schweppes now right?

Yep thats right... hence why I no longer work there!! Schweppes already had all their staff, so pepsi boys got the shaft!!

I know what you mean being in and out of the shops all day... theres always something to tempt you!! Iced Mocha for me!

    • Good luck on the weekend mate
    • Must have been an absolute nightmare to drive when the power steer was out, the rack ratio/wheel size/caster is all set up for power assistance
    • Welcome to SAU, what are you looking at buying?
    • I checked the injectors again (1 and 2, since they’re easiest to access) to make sure they weren’t clogged. Even though the entire fuel system had been cleaned, I wanted to be certain. Everything looked clean, so I reinstalled and connected everything. When I started the car to confirm everything was okay, it immediately revved up high, so I shut it off straight away. I checked to see if I’d missed a vacuum hose or something, but everything was connected. On the second attempt, the car ran without the high idle, but I noticed a distinct “compressed air” sound coming from the engine bay. Tracing the sound, I pushed injector #6 forward slightly and the noise stopped — it turned out it wasn’t seated properly, despite the fuel rail being bolted down. While holding it in place, the car idled steadily without stalling and ran for over 5 minutes. At this point, I pulled all six injectors out just in case I hadn’t seated them correctly or dirt had gotten onto the O-rings. Unfortunately, I discovered that I had damaged 3 out of 6 injectors (the OEM 270cc ones) during installation. So yes, this was my fault. Since only the pintle caps were damaged, I’ve ordered a Fuel Injector Service Kit from NZEFI to refurbish them. In the meantime, I reinstalled my new injectors – the car now idles fine for over 15 minutes without stalling. I have not attempted to drive it so far. It’s not perfect yet, as it hesitates when the throttle is pressed, but it’s a big improvement. Unplugging the IACV with the new injectors idles at around 800rpm, even with the IACV screw tightened fully. But this is probably due to tune.
    • I wanted to try and preserve the front bumper as long as possible, they're not cheap and are made to order in Japan. Taking inspiration from my previous K11 Micra build where I made an undertray for the Impul bumper, I did the same for this BN Sports bumper but a little slimmed down.  This time round I only made a 'skid plate' (if that's the correct wording/term) for just the bumper surface area, the Micra version covered the gap like an undertray. Starting off with a sheet of mild steel approx. 0.9mm thick 4ft x 2ft in size. I traced around the bumper, cut it out and cleaned the edges. Luckily I was able to get two halves from one piece of metal In the video I installed it as is, but I've since then I've removed it to spray and add a rubber edging trim. The rubber trim is suitable for 1-2mm and it's a really nice tight fit. The bolts had to be loosened due to the plates being too tight against the bumper, the trim wouldn't push on I used some stainless M6 flat headed bolts for a flusher finish (rather than hex heads poking down), I believe this style fastener is used for furniture too incase you struggle to source some. The corner's are a little wider, but this may be an advantage incase I get close to bumping it  The front grill got some attention, finally getting round to repairing it. Upon removal one fixing pulled itself out of the plastic frame, one side is M8 that fixes inside of the frame, where as the other side is M5. Not knowing I could get replacements, I cut down an M8 bolt, threaded it inside the frame along with a decent amount of JB Weld.  The mesh was replaced to match the bumper. One hole on the bonnet/hood had to be drilled out to 8mm to accommodate the new stud, once the glue had set it could be refitted. I think the reason the grill was double meshed was to hide the horn/bonnet latch (which makes sense) but I much prefer it matching the bumper Bumper refitted and it's looking much better IMO The Youtube video can be seen here: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=bVZP35io9MA
