yeah, my prof that i was doing my final year research project for transferred to Uni of Western Syd.

Project supervisor offered me to work as a research assistance engineer for him and i turned him down thinking I don't want to hang around Uni... how stupid was i.

So close to graduating yet so far, frustrating.

Get a job and claim the first 3 months of work as work experience.

Only thing I have to say is for all those studying and doing double degrees etc.. is that it's all good as long as you do something with it.

I know plenty of brahs that do double degrees in what not, but end up getting/wanting a job that didn't need it or still end up working at Coles etc..

Also what subject you study does depend what University is best but. University of Melbourne is ranked as the #1 University in Australia and 37th in the world :P

Edit: Depends which source you read but Melb Uni might be behind Australian National University.

inb4 methodologies are crap

What up my fellow Melbourne Uni brah

The Times top 200 list is considered the most authoritative. Melbourne has been Australia's best in that list for the past few years, ANU and UNSW not far behind.

Pat since you require separate invites to events, you going to Garage Cafe tonight? :P

You must have gotten a pretty high enter score to get into Law at Melb Uni? 95 +?

Uni can be tough. We joke about it being a bludge, but when you are actually doing the work, shit can really rack your brain (regardless of how well you study). And you see no immediate reward from it like your mates who went straight into full time jobs. Even apprentices on minimum wage earn from their learning.

There are awesome things about uni - I'd choose the lifestyle over fulltime work any day. But I do remember staying up 36 hours straight to finish a lab report once (got an HD for it!), and that was harder than anything I've done in fulltime work.

Everyone's got problems at their own levels and problems are shit regardless of where they sit on a scale. You can say "that's nothing" when looking at someone else's, but then there's always someone who has it worse than you too. I guess moral of the story is no one should complain or everyone should complain, just don't complain about complaining lol.

Oh and Nick...anyone who works in a family business knows it ain't 9-5/7, that's just what the payslip says lol. Even outside the unpaid overtime, the future of the business and day to day running sits at the back of your mind, day and night!

Higher...

Minimum enter for hecs place was 99.45 in my year

Farrkkk...

Are you one of those who did English, Maths Methods, Specialist Maths, Physics & Chemistry?

Ric now officially the smartest guy on Wastelands

That's like the standard year 12 for engineers

Are you one of those who did English, Maths Methods, Specialist Maths, Physics & Chemistry?

mine was English, Maths Methods, Specialist Maths, Chemistry, Accounting, Comp Sci

fun

    • There's restrictor pills in the stock boost control hoses. That's how they set the amount that was bled off and hence the "high" boost setting. The usual mod in the day was to remove it and send the "high" boost setting up to about 14 psi.
    • Thanks Duncan, that's the best info I've read. Furthermore after learning about the PCM programming side controlling the factory boost solenoid, the purpose of the solenoid is to "bleed" boost when pin 25 is earthed, thus allowing spring pressure in the wastegate actuator to overcome diaphragm boost pressure, thus closing or reducing the position of the wastegate flap creating more boost as the turbo is able to spin faster. It's pretty cool to see a designated Pill to do exactly this, would have liked to have seen it with a tiny filter over the end for those moments in vacuum.  The constant bleed pill has now been removed completely from the system and solenoid boost control has been restored once again.   Case closed 😂
    • The wideband reading is meaningless if it's not running. Why are you using shitty old sidefeeds on any engine, let alone a Neo? What manifold and fuel rail are you using to achieve that? Beyond that, can't help you with AEM stuff as I've never been their ECU/CAS combo.
    • Manual boost controllers (where a little of the boost was bled off) were quite common back in the day, because they were cheap and easy. Generally they had a manual adjustment screw rather than being fixed like yours. Down side is they always bleed boost, not just when you want them to so an electronic boost controller that uses a solenoid will have less lag.
    • Hello , im new here and i have A31 home build  RB25det neo stock eng / turbo  aem ems 2 blue connector  aem 3.5 map aem cas disk aem wideband connected to ecu  355 lph pump 550 nismo yellow injectors side feed aftermarket regulator  and won’t start with base aem tuner basic tune eventually flipped cas 180 degree so it triggers on correct stroke not in exhaust cycle  Now it won’t start Wideband reads 10 and 11 at lowest fuel setting  and will share calibrations soon for aem tuner i think something is wrong in aem tuner    please if you have any information, am very grateful
