Well my day just got interesting, my yardie (bloke that cleans cars and shit) was driving me to our other yard to pick up a car and he ran up the arse of a lady that i think was Indian driving a little Corolla.. she stopped in the middle of the road when there was nothing coming and the bull bar off our BT-50 did work of her rear bumper. My yardies up for a $500 excess and more than likely lost his job.

Hektik!

Well that's an interesting turn of events. Probably won't lose his job for a once off, would he?

Yep haha, yeah well my boss has been talking to me about wanting to f*ck him off because he's not doing things right anyway so i reckon this is the last straw. I reckon he'll have to wait a few weeks though or else it can be a fair work issue if my yardie tried to do anything about it.

He's a bit of a loser, wouldn't be suprised if he wasn't here tomorrow.

Damn you need to come up here, it's nearly 30 degrees by 8am i'm sick of it!

Major problem, its too expensive to get to the snow from there i <3 snow

also i dont think theres too many software dev jobs in Mackay!

High Vis is where it's at in QLD...

Used to bag a mate that QLD is the land of Hi Ves and Low IQ

Snowboarding > Most things

Absolutely love it.

Pity all the mining companies don't pay their office staff anything like the 'hands on' people and engineers.

They pay their office staff ridiculously well... Depends on the job thought. Internal accountants are circa $100k.

I know a head environmental officer out in the mines that makes close to $170k a year and i can't imagine she does a hell of a lot of "hard work"

about time it all evened out anyway - sick of seeing people who i know dropped out of school and are as thick of 5 bags of sh*t earning 150k and buying Range Rovers just for shuffling around in the dust at a mine site, while i worked my @ss off at school so i could spend 5 years at uni and have a massive HECS debt and a long climb up the corporate ladder ahead of me........<RANT>

+1 to all of this!

I've spent the last 6 years studying and still have one more to go as well as 3 years full time work and im still not earning that good money.

Although relocation overseas is now looking like my best bet :/

    • Need to see other side of PCB in that area...ie; I don't see any thru-hole mounting, just soldered vias (smd zeners in SOT23 have 3 legs but only 2 are used, as reflected by PCB tracks)
    • 4 to 5 is fine. It will be slow, but that's better than blowing turbos. I don't have a PS pump idle up solenoid on my car, because... I think when we put the Neo in we retained my R32 lines. But.... From inspecton of the R34 vacuum hose diagram, you can see that the solenoid needs to be connected to the turbo inlet as source of clean air) and the plenum (as source of vacuum - which is the place for the air to flow to to cause the idle to increase). So 3 to 1 is VERY WRONG. 3 should go to either the turbo inlet, or the plenum. Follow the other hose from the PS solenoid and if it goes to the plenum, then your 3 goes to 2 2 would also serve as a bleed port for a boost solenoid.
    • Pull them out and pull more apart. You can't do shit with them still bolted to the floor of the car.
    • Yes it is. ZD1 is on the other side of the board. Where ZD1 is marked is clearly opposite a 2 pin device. Our 3 pin device here is not a ZD.
    • Alright, a little update on this... I called Fulcrum, who used to be the distributor in Australia. No Bueno, they don't service them anymore.  Called shock works, who don't service them but offered to dyno the shocks for performance, and suggested DNA in Sydney might service them.  Called DNA, who also do not service them and basically said they try to steer customers away from tein for this exact reason these days- there is just no support for them anymore apparently.  Both SW and DNA said they are a not necessarily a bad product, but they just don't service the brand or know anyone who does service the brand anymore.  So... I could keep calling around but at this point I think I'll probably just spring for the shockworks product, unless anyone here knows anything.  Cheers 🍻
