yes im afraid it does Colin, like i said before, go there work for 2 years get rich and come back here and enjoy life, its just pretty much just like a holiday where you get paid alot and no taxes, most of my aussie mates parents in qatar would leave within a maximum of 5 years and their severence pay and savings were enough to buy a new house here and pay off their mortgages etc, 30 cents for a can of coke and 25 cents a litre for petrol, cant complain :ph34r:

Wouldn't bother tbh. You can't get uber wages unless you are working for one of the oil companies anyway. I would only go to the middle east if they had some awesome project going on. Atm it looks like bail town so I'll just chill out here. Plenty of ways to make decent cash here.

serbia?

interracial ftw?

Serbia vs Qatar?

Andy youl have to attach your resume and complete the form and they will interview you, they will pay for your airfare to get there and come back, you can negiotate salary if they accept you, i dont know your profession but i would say you would be looking atleast 3 to 4 grand a month tax free for the lower scale jobs,and thats very low scale im talking about.if you work in the town my parents work in you can choose either to live in the accomodation they provide rent free with all utilities such as electricity and water provided free or they will give you a generous rent allowance and you can live in the capital,Doha.

you will also be given allowances for your childrens education etc if you have any, and they will give a full round ticket once a year free so you can come back to australia etc, all holidays are paid.

gosh i sound like a recruitment agent hehe. if you need more info just ask.

Evo X is shit

yes indeed, housemate had a evo X GSR, wrapped it around a tree a month after buying it, got quoted 45 grand or so to fix up, sold to wreckers for 12 grand,

when at Mitsubushi dealership was told that the top of the line MR model would break the transmission if the TMR package or something along those lines is applied, apparently the SSQ gearbox or whatever its called cant handle anythin more than 300kw. worth the 70 grand price tag? dont think so.

also forgot to mention the clutch shat itself after 7 launches at the 5500 launch control limit.

I'm in

What qualifications do you need ?

you would need a few years experience in the job your interested in, they will be happy to employ australians, loads people have moved there in the past few years, and yes you can drink and buy alcohol, u just need a license like a 18+ card they have here and its piss easy to get, but do not drink and drive, you will get f**ked if you get caught, zero tolerance to drink driving there.

i earn that after tax now...and im bad at negotiating but they would need to literally pay me triple to get me to go and live in a hotass desert!

the heat there is very different from here mate, its dry so you dont sweat as much, ACs are everywhere, i dont know your profession but the number i gave you was for the lowest paid jobs, on average people i know earn 7 to 8 grand a month tax free. and when you add up all the fringe benefits its pretty much 10 to 12 grand if you consider not having to pay rent utlilites etc, i dare say you could comfotably live on 300 to 400 dollars a month even if you ate out 3 times a day.

    • Also, I logged some data from the ECU for each session (mostly oil pressures and various temps, but also speed, revs etc, can't believe I forgot accelerator position). The Ecutek data loads nicely to datazap, I got good data from sessions 2, 3 and 4: https://datazap.me/u/duncanhandleyhgeconsultingcomau/250813-wakefield-session-2?log=0&data=7 https://datazap.me/u/duncanhandleyhgeconsultingcomau/250813-wakefield-session-3?log=0&data=6 https://datazap.me/u/duncanhandleyhgeconsultingcomau/250813-wakefield-session-4?log=0&data=6 Each session is cut into 3 files but loaded together, you can change between them in the top left. As the test sessions are mostly about the car, not me, I basically start by checking the oil pressure (good, or at least consistent all day). These have an electrically controlled oil pump which targets 25psi(!) at low load and 50 at high. I'm running a much thicker oil than recommended by nissan (they said 0w20, I'm running 10w40) so its a little higher. The main thing is that it doesn't drop too far, eg in the long left hand fish hook, or under brakes so I know I'm not getting oil surge. Good start. Then Oil and Coolant temp, plus intercooler and intake temps, like this: Keeping in mind ambient was about 5o at session 2, I'd say the oil temp is good. The coolant temp as OK but a big worry for hot days (it was getting to 110 back in Feb when it was 35o) so I need to keep addressing that. The water to air intercooler is working totally backwards where we get 5o air in the intake, squish/warm it in the turbos (unknown temp) then run it through the intercoolers which are say 65o max in this case, then the result is 20o air into the engine......the day was too atypical to draw a conclusion on that I think, in the united states of freedom they do a lot of upsizing the intercooler and heat exchanger cores to get those temps down but they were OK this time. The other interesting (but not concerning) part for me was the turbo speed vs boost graph: I circled an example from the main straight. With the tune boost peaks at around 18psi but it deliberately drops to about 14psi at redline because the turbos are tiny - they choke at high revs and just create more heat than power if you run them hard all the way. But you can also see the turbo speed at the same time; it raises from about 180,000rpm to 210,000rpm which the boost falls....imagine the turbine speed if they held 18psi to redline. The wastegates are electrically controlled so there is a heap of logic about boost target, actual boost, delta etc etc but it all seems to work well
    • hahah when youtube subscribers are faster than my updates here. Yes some vid from the day is up, here:  Note that as with all track day videos it is boring watching after the bloopers at the start.  The off was a genuine surprise to me, I've literally done a thousand laps around the place and I've never had instability there; basically it rolled into oversteer, slipped, gripped and spat me out. On the way off I mowed down one of the instructor's cones and it sat there all day looking at me with accusing cone eyes as I drove past. 1:13:20 was my fastest lap, and it was in the second session, 3rd lap.  It (or me!) got slower throughout the day as it got hotter.      
    • It sounds like you want what the Toyota Landcruisers have for their roof racks. Wanna know what you end up with? Rust holes in the roof, and water everywhere...
    • Discovered today that if I select reverse first and take my foot off the brake, then select drive, the drive indicator light works and so does the tiptronic gear indicator. 
    • 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 maybe 1 wire in the ecu plug I need to move to rectify this. Does anyone here have any ideas?   Cheers guys
