its basically like being a sparky / on site technician.. running cables / getting into roofs / wiring up stuff aint really my thing.. coming from a more software / PC support type role.. the job description didn't explain i'd be using a angle grinder and drills and shit lol I feel like a builder when I'm really a geek monday to friday.. was trying to uninstall a nurse call point from a bathroom today and walked in only to see a builder taking a dump dafaq..

(yea yea I'm soft I know.. but really isn't the "manual labour" it's more that im just not interested..)

2nd day and I called boss (my old i.t manager at old work) saying this aint for me.. he is trying to convince the owner to manipulate my role into a more PC based thing now -_- i prefer having a desk and emailing random photos around lol

Noooms. Lambs on Chapel... 5 minues walk from home.

Lambs on Lygon... 1 minute walk from school.

Best.

Had Lygon Lambs on Saturday night, after night at cas. At least all my losings were forgotten while eating :P

As Birds says, it's more the convenience that makes it taste soooo goood. When I'm at school Lygon tastes best. When I'm at home Chapel tastes best :)

ahh id prefer a pc / office job too man..

doing a physical job can really suck especially when the pay isnt very good..

Yeah i was pretty much led onto believing it was similar to what i was doing.. apparently not to the point where i don't even have a desk lol and on site all the time.. cheers for the comments makes me think I'm doing the right thing leaving - apart from Nick :P I'm not as bad ass as you sorry brah! :D

Ah well I guess job hunting again! :P

lol fair enough, I just miss emailing people random shit :P

oh and the office womens (although that was at the body shop so more than usual!)

nah but seriously prefer software / PC / server related over this sparky stuff

Martin - give me a job brah :D

I don't wanna get into a souvlaki war, but if it's a Lambs war, gay Lambs on Commercial Rd for me please. Just don't park in the no parking zone or it'll be the most expensive souvlaki you ever eat :P

The Lambs on Chapel have too much fat in their meat and shit slicing too, not small enough. Haven't tried Lygon or Brunswick.

Yo bluejeans I haven't tracked the SS, but I've run them at DECA and they were quite good. Don't really have a basis for comparison as I've only ever done DECA with them, but I was happy with how they performed. Obviously softer spring rates you get a bit more body roll than firmer springs, but that's the trade off. Still way better handling than stock.

pfft, since when is Birds ever right?

Sounds like a SAU kebab run to Brunswick and maybe Lygon... haha

I never had troubles with my EDFC, however I didn't have car long enough to have it happen :P

although they were 2nd hand when i bought them, but iirc they only had about 10000kms use

Engine bay heat used to kill the older style motors and you'd just come up with error on the screen and be unable to adjust them. I loved them when they first worked though.

Was looking at getting one of my Tein SS coils revalved, as it's squeaking a lot (done ~40,000km on them). Spoke to the guys at Fulcrum who rebuild them and they said it's normal for SS to shit themselves after ~2 years of daily driving. So if you get anything more than that, I guess be happy :/

I'm not lol. Though I do acknowledge you're putting essentially racing parts on a street car, wear is always going to be an issue as the daily grind is tougher on some components than the track is :/

Do Fulcrum still do 3 Year warranties on Australian-spec Super Streets?

Ah yep, not sure if evo were old style motors or not, were your's in the pulsar?

just realised that Shannon's Skyline Nationals are on the same weekend as DECA is supposedly on... :( what's a boy to do

If you're talking about SAU DECA they're not even in the same month from what I can see :P

    • So, I put my boat on a boat. First of all, I'm going to come out and say it. Why is Tasmania not considered a holy goal, an apex that all road-legal modified cars go to, to experience? This place is an absolute wonderland of titanic proportions. If people are already getting club runs for once in a lifetime 30 person cruises to Tassy then I've never seemed to see it. It is like someone replaced the entire place with an idyllic wonderland for cars, and all of the people living there with paid actors who are kind, humble, and friendly. Dear god. After doing a lap of almost all of the place I've found that it's a great way to find out all of the little things that the car isn't doing quite right and a great way to figure it all out. All in all, I drove for 4 hours a day for a week and nothing broke. I didn't even need to open the engine bay. This is by all means a great success, but it has left me with a list of things to potentially address. I also now have a 3D printed wheel fitment tool which annoyingly hasn't got any threads in it to actually assemble it. I might be able to tape it together to check the sizing I actually want to use, but it'll likely involving pulling the shocks out to properly measure travel at least at the front, and probably raise the car while I'm at it, at least in the rear. I scraped on quite a few things and I'm not sure how else to go about it. I was taking anything with a bump at what felt like 89 degree angles. And address those 10 other tasks. And wash the car. God damn it is dirty. And somehow, the weather was perfect the entire time - And because I was on the top of Mt Wellington it turns out it was very much about to freeze up there. I did something I typically never do and took some photos up there in what must have been -10 and the foggy felt like suspended ice, rather than mere fog. If you own a car in Australia, you owe it to yourself to do it.
    • Damn that was hilarious, and a bit embarrassing for skylines in general 😂 vintage car life ey. That R33 really stomped. Pretty entertaining stuff
    • Hi, I have a r32 gtr transmission. Does any of you guys have an idea how much power it will hold with the billet center plate and stock gearset? At what power level and use did yours brake with or without billet plate? Thanks, Oystein Lovik
    • Saw this replica police car based on a Mitsubishi Starion XX parked next to a 'police box' (it's literally a box) in Hirohata, Himeji City in Hyogo prefecture the other day. It's owned by Morii-san who is a local Mitsubishi Starion enthusiast. According to a local radio station blog post, he always wanted to make a police car himself based on ones he saw in his favourite Manga comics.  As it's illegal to modify a car to look like a police car and drive on the road, Morii-san tried many times to get permission from Aboshi police station headquarters nearby. They refused initially by after they got tired of that they granted him permission. However, the car can only be displayed on private property and obviously can't be registered as long as the police livery is present. The car was completed at a cost of 1.5 million yen (US$ 10,000) in addition to the car cost. A location was chosen outside Hirohata Police box where the car can easily been seen from the street. Morii-san has two other Starion road cars, both widebody GSR-VRs.
