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

    • Totally equivalent. Stock often goes from the comp cover because that's where the actuator is also installed and the factory needs 2" of hose to make the connection - and it comes as a pre-assembled unit. They totally have a boost reference from somewhere between the turbo and the throttle(s). Oh, jeez. Just do it in M12 then. We don't actually care that much. I would expect any such AN converter fitting to rely on an o-ring or some other seal onto a flat surface under the flange of the hex**, because bolt threads are no intended to provide a pressure seal. unlike..... pipe threads. **which also requires a suitably flat and smooth surface on the turbo's boss to provide the seal.
    • I also used NP   That’s were it’s seems to be the best place to fit it? All schematic shows also that it’s should be referenced from the turbo housing. But idk, I do see high hp cars without any connection or anything to their turbos, so I really don’t know how they connect their things
    • I do have loctite 243 and 246 and a few more models. I could drill it now in place and make new threads for m12 and order an4 - m12 coupling and fit that to the turbo. Run a braided hose to the EBC which I could get a an4 to 1/8npt 
    • So M12 and sealant should be fine?    NPT ” because that’s what I had and what I could get atm. 
    • Wouldn’t touch par if they gave it to me. You need to ask how much power you’re looking to make and then add about 50% to it because that’s what you’ll end up making  The factory box says no more at about 350kw or so, the upgraded synchro boxes won’t handle much over 500kw for long and at that point you’re looking at an auto or dog engagement manual,  once you’ve gone dog engagement you may as well go sequential, they cost a little bit more but it’s worth it  also while you’re at it you should upgrade the transfer case with 10 friction plates
