where do you work benm?

North sydney cant be half as bad as peak hour sydney from 3:30pm - 5:00pm the M4 is at a standstill until you pass the toll heading towards penrith.

one day I was going to go to parramatta by train but there was a train strike. had to take westbus on the M4 to seven hills then after that a bus to parramatta.

2 and a half hours. it only takes 40 mins or so by car.

I had to do the same thing back to penrith. must have been 60 people in one bus. went back to seven hills and there werent many people in the line for penrith ( about a full bus with no standers ).

Spent half the day travelling

I work directly opposite Penrith Plaza. If I open my office blindes/window I can smell the burgers cooking at McDonalds and get quite a nice "view" of the surroundings :aroused:

I started work today at 4pm, I left home at 3:51pm and made it just in time :wassup: Normally I finish work at 4pm, I'm home and watching foxtel by 4:15pm everyday :headspin:

I believe i'm under paid by about $5k but hell 10mins to/from work instead of 2hrs (car + train from Penrith -> City) twice a day im quite happy to be under paid when it means I leave home at 7:45am and get home at 4:15pm (2.5hrs of travel per/wk vs 20hrs travel).

Ok and so now how much is your time worth ?

At bare minimum u'd be doing 15hrs travel a week (3hrs per day, 1.5hr each way). To me thats worth about $250/wk.

To me the jump at the moment just isn't worth it.

    • Checked with amayama and nope, the full S2 manual set is not available anymore. Unsurprising, but still disappointing as the ? on availability gave a glimmer of hope.
    • I've heard the Tomei USA head gaskets are decent if you want to o-ring the heads but otherwise not recommended.
    • The 296mm rotors are the R33 turbo brakes. The 310mm rotors are the R34 turbo brakes. The calipers are nearly the same, but not. They're the same caliper but the R34 caliper has longer legs so that it sits out far enough to go over the rotor. The pads are the same for both. When you say, "I bough tsome EBC"....did you just mean pads? Or rotors? 310mm rotors fit under 17" wheels. There may be some wheels without enough clearance though. I can't fit my fingers between the barrel of my wheel and the "corners" of my R34 calipers, but there is plenty of room behind the spokes. This is on Enkei RPF1. You can fit 324mm rotors inside a 17" wheel, but I'd be willing to bet that it would be close to impossible with the Nissan/Sumitomo caliper (using an adapter, of course), because the Sumitomo caliper is fatter than the Brembo caliper that is supposed to go on the 324mm rotors.
    • Hi. Can someone tell me what brakes(and mainly WHERE) can i buy brakes on R34 GTT? I bought some EBC which SHOULD go on my car(i have GT but it has GTT brakes) but it does not fit, Brakes are "too" small(296mm) Are 310mm be good or? I have 17 inch wheel so no "big boys" but for me driving i just need one that fits and i can get here in EU/Czech.
    • Since winter isn't that harsh anymore in Poland, i will definetely drive it 365 days a year 😉. But if the snow hits i will try it for sure and let U know. Only swap i am planning to do is of course R34 GTR front 😍.
