Middlemount if you know where that is. About 2hrs from Emerald up north towards Mackay.

Those 57d are the perfect drifter rims imo. Cheap and good + you get all the attention you need with the colours they offer. Hahaha.

Yes. Not all Gramlight but the specific design I'm suggesting. The 57d were quoted by Streeter

Comparing to

These would be a lot cheaper with the current exchange rate sitting around 85?

Brandon:

Wheels of choice for your car would be Gold Gramlight 57Pro, Gold GTC or White LMGT's

Don't forget that you will pay around 20% more when you go to pick it up from the docks in custom duties and GST.

Also, even if the rate on xe.com says 85yen, the rate the bank will be paying is only going to be 82yen and you have to minus 2 yen on his side also. So if xe.com says 85yen then expect to be paying at approx 80yen and $1800 will actually cost you an extra $360 to pick up when it lands

I wanna know the design part of things rather than operational for starters. And I'll need the commission experience if I wanna go down the path I'm planning.

What have they got up there that they are working on? Power plant or something?

Nah too expensive for drifter rims. Better off buying second hand since you're just gunna wreck them anyway. imo anyway.

You should ask streeter if he can send each wheel via EMS one at a time. You will pay a tiny bit more but avoid custom duties

Now you're on the trolley ;)

In other news. Who is going to the SAU Qld Christmas dinner? I reckon I'll put off paying my fine till the 14th and make an appearance :)

Yea I know that. That quote I got was long ago before I bought these LMGT4. I wouldnt have having those hideous coloured rims on my car thats for sure. But if I'm having a drift car say 180? I'll get them.

There are engineers on site that sit in offices all day designing/planning new u/g and open pit shiz.

Will I assume your talking about wanting to be involved with the civil design stages of the sites ? eg. processing plants and other structural aspects ?

Did you study environmental science ?

What do you do in the mines Dan?

I'm an electrical/controls engineer bro. I'll really just be doing the maintenance stuff if I'm onsite. Its normally the process boys that decide what to upgrade etc and from there the other discipline will get the work done.

Thats a bloody good question! Yes Dan, what do you do in the mines???? Must be a desk job since you have a whole lot of whoring time!

;)

I already told you , Im a giver . . . . Oh wait do mean my job ? lol

Im a surveyor ;)

Is it standard surveyor stuff while the mines are under construction or is the place your working at operational?

Maintenance = suicide. I wouldn't be able to do that anywhere especially if I was going to be stuck in the middle of bumf**k nowhere.

Geeezzzz that post was a bit slow since the question is answered ....

Yep fail.

Dan Yep i did environmental science

Colin, dont be upset that we get paid lots to do pretty much nothing except write reports that ever so slightly change the project...yet every one has to wait for them because of silly environmental legislation haha

    • Ahhh, I need the whole head unit. I definitely needed to roll back through and review your setup, ha ha! Neat setup they have going on. I just need a full double din head unit. But I want good and responsive. I might have to review what the likes of pioneer have out these days.
    • Ok so after much research and talking with knowledgeable people I've got my turbo conversion done and it's all running great other than 1 small issue.  Car has remained auto with the na auto and tcm, I've used a stagea ecu with. NIstune board and everything is great other than my gear selection on the dash. It illuminates park, reverse, neutral, 3rd and 2nd. But nothing drive or what gear your in when you pop it into tiptronic.  I'm sure there is may e 1 wire in the ecu plug I need to move to rectify this. Dose anyone here have any ideas?   Cheers guys
    • Sorry I haven't been following all the detail, so you may have tried this. Does it idle with the tiniest bit of throttle you can add? You've mentioned the IACV, does it have an AAC valve and have you adjusted it at all (ie, screw the idle adjust screw all the way in, then back it out a couple of turns until idle is stable)?
    • My bad, I unplugged the one underlined in red instead of yellow before. With the car started, after unplugging the IACV (the one underlined in yellow), it idled at around 400/500 for 3 seconds before stalling. Attempting to start the car without the IACV will not start the car.   It does stutter and sputter for around 5 seconds before dying. However, immediately after starting it, you can already hear some slight sputters from the exhaust.   It won't start with the AFM unplugged. If it is when the car has already started, it stalls in a few seconds.   Yesterday, I did take some logs using Nistune of 3 scenarios. Car idling till it stalls Car idling and unplugging the IACV Car idling and removing the AFM I also have some previous logs of when the Car is idling till it stalls and when driving and it cuts. I am not really knowledgeable enough to understand what to look for. After every test, car idles rougher and rougher, until I have to stop. It will be fine the day after.
    • There is no difference between a 17x8 and an 18x8. The total diameter of the tyre needs to remain +/- the same (so you don't mess up the gearing, speedo reading, and clearance when turning front wheels..... so you just need to use a lower profile tyre on th 18 than you do on the 17. /rocket surgery.
