I'm just going to have a bit of a rant-

I work on a measly $600 p/w wage, with commission paid monthly. Now i say measly because i live in Mackay and for those of you who don't know it's a very big mining town so prices for things like rent and food are through the roof.

I don't have huge amounts of traffic in my yard as it's new and still getting on it's feet, but i do okay. I just got my payslip for my monthly commission to see i've been taxed literally every cent of the commission i made, the only thing that i got extra was a bonus incentive from my boss. Apparently on commission i get taxed 28% of earnings and my boss gets taxed 34% so he says. I am not happy! Definitely not fair at all.

End rant, time for a 3 day holiday :)

I paid close to enough in tax to cover 2 people's doles last financial year. Need bonuses to allow for extra purchases etc due to current financial issues but most of it goes to the dirty homeless b**(((78 who doesn't have a job but can pop out kids left right and centre.... Just sayin!

Me and my mrs want to move to Brisbane next year, and Infiniti in Brisbane are taking applicants as of end of this year.. Might end up working for them when i head down there. That would be awesome!

Know one of the consultants there. Let me know if you're interested.

Definitely will hit you up, if i do end up coming down. We want to come down mid next year, need time to save and get things organised. My mrs wants to do animation at brisbane uni and wants to start around the beginning of semester 2 or 3 i think.

Over the weekend my passenger side window started playing up, and my drivers side lock.

Expensive weekend:(

how does your lock play up, as in when you hit unlock on the key nothing happens? I get that sometimes, shits me to tears. Especially in public.

Checked your battery mate?

Meh, I know nothing about horses and the like.

Nor do I :P deposited $50 into betting account. Walked away with $90. Can't complain.

It unlocks my passengers door but not my drivers door. Super annoying!

Mine does that every now and then, not very often though. So annoying i agree.

im looking into replacements parts at the moment... might tint the front windows while they are out and maybe install some new speakers

Good idea to swap a few things around while you've got the bits off the car. I need some new front door speakers, i also need a new ipod plug thingy as mines all tattered and shitty. Can anyone recommend a good brand i can pick up from Autobarn or Jaycar?

    • Hope you aren't too sore after that one, might take a day or 2 to notice yet and I guess it is a loooooong drive home. On the bright side, tube frame front end is a thing at superlap, right?

    • The chart of front pressure to rear pressure (with one being on the x axis and the other being on the y axis) is not a straight line on a typical proportioning valve. At lower pressures there is a straight line with one slope, and at higher pressures that changes to a lower slope. That creates a bend in the line at that pressure, called the knee point. If you do not change the proportionng as the pressure gets higher, you will suffer excessive pressure (at one end of the car or the other, depending on which way you look at the proportioning action) and then get lockups at that end. The HFM BM57, from my memory of previous discussions, is based on the BM57 from a different car (to a Skyline), with a different requirement for the location of the knee point and the distribution of pressure front to rear, and so is not a good choice for an upgrade on a Skyline. Here's a couple of links to some old posts, one from here, one from elsewhere. A lot of it pertains to adjustable prop valves, but the idea is the same. There are plenty of discussions on here about this issue from al the many years of people wanting a cheap/accessible option. https://grassrootsmotorsports.com/forum/grm/learn-me-brake-proportioning-valves/236880/page1/ https://grassrootsmotorsports.com/forum/grm/learn-me-brake-proportioning-valves/236880/page1/  
    • Yeah dunno why johhny posted that here with no context, just post on FB/insta bro where he put it up?  Laine had an off at T4 during Thurs prac, he's ok, car is less than perfect, they are done for the weekend, he can fill in the rest. Bando also binned it like 100m up the road.   
    • I feel there must have been a FB/insta post and the weekend did not start well at all I hope everyone is all okay
