Yep, I bought, get the keys on the 15th of July. And I'll have you over before you have me over :P Check your PM's on facebook, I sent you a link

Yeah I DREAM of paying $270pw mortgage repayments .... try nearly triple that. But it is a nearly $1M house, so you have to expect to pay a decent mortgage :rant::D

Shit yeah, would be nice, maybe one day lol

Haha like your avatar Nick .... and where is MY VodkaO? (Or at least a hat)

Had to celebrate, we just won Gold for both rums (white and dark) and with our tequila at The World Spirit Show!

Got a Tequila Blu shot glass for you mate

Congrats mate, no doubt at this rate you will,

barely been home lately, got so much on at the moment between 3 jobs (collecting them at the moment) and family illness

Not good man, best wishes to you :P

I'm not sure on the whole setup but I think you can get adult entry apprenticeships that pay you decent enough money to survive on. Does your missus work too? That would be a big help. My point is, nothing is impossible, difficult yes, impossible no

I just turned 27 and I'm a first year apprentice :P

Thinking about getting into a trade also. Want to work in and around cars as I have no interest in anything else. Narrowed it down to either panel beater or mechanic.

Don't do mechanics. No money in it unless you own a garage that is successful

    • Hi guys, long time no post as per usual! It's been a busy year so far, the biggest thing being a new job.  After 28 years in the automotive industry I decided it was time for a change.  I was losing faith in the industry and where it's heading.  Now in a completely different industry (electrical) working for a company that manufacture water pump contollers.  Not as sexy as cars but it's an interesting,  challenging industry. I now don't work Saturdays which is a bonus!  It's still 50-55 hours a week but having Saturdays ack after 28 years of working them is awesome!   No news on the GT-R but i did decide to add some more JDM goodness into my life....           1990 300 ZX.  She's not perfect but for a 35 year old car she ain't bad!  Just going to tidy it up a bit and enjoy it.  It's currently auto but will start stockpiling everything for a manual swap. It WILL distract me even further from the GT-R but im hoping not for too long! It somewhat proves a 6'8" freak can fit in a 300 ZX.  Sort of...  I drove it home from the previous owners house in Melbourne via Black Spur and Merton Gap (2 awesome bits of Victorian twisty road) and it was amazing!  Handles so well!!!   I don't think it would be worthy of a full build page but I'll post up some of the upgrades here if anyone is interested?  Cheers guys!
    • End game is to: - Remove all the slop from old worn parts - Adjust setup so that the wheels actually fit and the car is drivable (currently it is not because of the extreme rubbing on the guards).   Progress over the last couple of days, removed the rear hubs! Next steps: - Buy bushings - Replace bushings/bearings on hub - Reinstall
    • Cracked deck  And other cam snap stuff   
    • A few random issues have popped up since my last update. My WMI pressure sensor failed within about 10 minutes of it seeing liquid. It was a 20$ China special, so I'm not surprised. My name brand replacement should arrive today.  My power steering assist also decided to crap out last weekend. The usual, works for about 60 seconds after starting the car then I lose it. I dusted off my old copy of NDS and connected to the HICAS ECU. Code 4 for assist solenoid.... I tested the solenoid and it's fine.  I knew the day where my HICAS ecu would crap out would come, and I welcome it. It was the last HICAS part on the car that is now in the bin. I've ordered an SSR and I will control the power steering solenoid with my Haltech ecu. It will be nice to have proper speed referenced assist again after all these years.
