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

    • Oh, also, forgot to add these photos I believe.
    • Thought i'd update on this. I was able to get in contact with Craig Lieberman and later on Darryl Alison (owner of Kaizo Industries). Darryl was able to help me verify that my car was in fact one of theirs and is helping me find more info on mine !
    • 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.
