So this is how people in w.a get defected. Taken from Facebook.

Swaybars & radiator are defects. High mount turbo is questionable haha

Roll bar =/= sway bar..

Interesting...I know fk all about tuning so I wonder if I can play with a copy of my tune and produce something that doesn't blow up my engine!

You have PowerFC - you can do it in about 10 seconds by just using a correction factor. It's not an exact science but if all you want is more fuel, easy done, wont destroy a motor or anything. :thumbsup:

At home and with a stone grill, yes. But I've been having medium at restaurants lately. It usually comes out medium to well anyway, cause some don't have a clue about cooking different sizes and cuts or don't bother / have time to check it while cooking.

Plus hardly anyone at a restaurant knows how to cool a proper well done steak without burning it - they invariably whack the heat on high and burn the outside; jerk offs. It's supposed to be no red inside, without the burnt outside. Inb4 Hamish says they do this out of spite or to rush it out; some may do this and others are in fact clueless and glorified water burners.

Maybe you don't know what Medium actually is and just *think* you do? *can of worms opened.

That said, it is quite hard to cook a well-done without char, when on a char grill... Unless you want to wait 45mins+ for the meal, and no-one is happy to wait that long. Hell we have a certain persuasion of person that thinks it should only take 15mins and will ask every time, almost without fail "where is our meal", after 15mins.

because every piece of meat is different and as you cant see the meat in question, you can't ascertain how it needs to be cooked.

also because the chef at Rockpool has cooked probably 20,000+ steaks in his life and knows infinitely more than you about cooking steak.

which all of course means... you will get a better steak

x 11ty. People just don't get meat is a natural product and can vary significantly steak to steak.

how much would rockpool chef get paid? live off tips & compliments?

thats a lot of steak and boring/depressing lifestyle to be a maestro at a top shelf restaurant.

Based on what my guys get over a year? It's north of 65k... how much depends on how much OT you end up doing in a year.
My kitchen and floor staff share tips equally too. AND they only work one double on the busiest 3 days, and get one of those days off (Fri/Sat/Sun)
Good working conditions in my hood - hence I've not lost any of my main guys since we opened. Losing staff costs more than giving decent conditions, sadly most people don't understand this.

because a rare ribeye / scotch fillet for example is pure shit. it has fat that hasn't broken down and tastes like ass

a rare eye fillet is great on the other hand

AMEN!

Too often we get people complaining AFTER they have eaten their scotch that it was "tasteless with a bit chunks of fat (the kernel)"... Yet our staff tell people 'we recommend the scotch to be cooked roughly medium so the fat breaks down to increase the taste'... But NOOO... Customer is always right, then complain afterwards even though we told them that is how they will get maximum enjoyment out of it

le-sigh... everyone is masterchef these days.

Is that a unfranked or franked dividend?

I LOL'd

From what I hear ash you give your cooks an awesome deal. Fkn good on you for actually paying people properly and not letting your ego dictate wages! :)

Gotta be a fair slog for the business though!

10 years in fine dining and I had to run kitchens and work 80 hours/week to earn $65k+

Yeah they have a great deal, none leave and they are always happy. I think the most hours they will work in a fortnight is 80-85hrs and it's their choice, not forced and get paid for EVERY hour! Wanna come work for me? lol.

The stories some of my guys have, I just utterly do not comprehend... 2 kitchen staff for a 250 seat bistro at a local hotel... No wonder the food is ALWAYS shithouse, they just don't have time to ensure it's top quality...

It's a fair slog wages wise to the business. I don't agree for a second with the restaurant award in terms of floor staff wages for pub holidays etc... I mean it's ~$53/hr on a Pub Holiday so we just close as we actually lose money, can't even break even with 7 floor staff on. The end result is less hours and money for people but somehow the Gov't that made it 2 years ago thinks it's legitimate. See if it was $35/hr, which is acceptable - we would open and people earn more etc.

For the kitchen guys though, they work hard so no issue paying them insane pub holiday rates if we did open - it's would be a nice sweetener for them

meh I'd just offer Tony a third of what that one is asking. don't need no photoshop to make it look good, is faster, and won't spin a bearing just after you've transferred rego and vicroads.

    • So, this shouldn't be such a mission, but there were a few tricks so I thought I'd post up a DIY for it. This was on a Q50 Red Sport but I doubt any other V37 model is very different (maybe just less steps for the intake heat exchanger hoses) I pulled the radiator out to flush it because the car was running hot at the track, but obviously the same steps apply for changing a radiator for any reason including an upgrade. If you are removing the radiator, you of course need to drain and refill, so have 5+ litres of blue coolant ready. You don't need to drain the intake heat exchanger to remove the radiator but depending on your plans you may need a couple of litres for that as well. You will also need something to deal with the auto transmission lines, I used 2x 8mm rubber caps on the radiator side, and a short length of 8mm pipe on the car side.....unless you can block these lines quickly you will loose AT fluid and it may be enough to hurt the transmission if you don't refill it. Other than that....lets go... "First, jack up your car". Yes really, and put it safely on stands. If you are not confident doing that you need to give this job to a mechanic
    • If the forester is anything like our old 2007 GTB Liberty, I could near on run ling Long's and "rate them", as no matter what, it just hung to the road, even when abusing it in a hard launch in the wet, or throwing it at corners.
    • LOL, all of the CAI like Craig I just need to put a hole saw through my bumper Done and dusted, the car runs, which is nice, I'll take it for a spin when the weather clears up Just need to put the bumper back on for good
    • Brooooo Please send ABS control unit schematic Please! R33 gts25t ABS (Its two plug ecu, black and white) wire colors possible? [email protected]
    • Don't even try to run it on the stock ECU if you're going to have the boost controller bring boost above ~10 psi. I've already told you that. If you use the Nistune ECU, you will need to CAREFULLY read the available documentation for Neo tuning, and read some threads on the Nistune forums, to discover the various things you have to do to prevent the ECU from going bananas when the boost is too high. The is a table associated with th boost sensor that must be modified to prevent it from shitting the bed. This is just one of the things that you will need to do to the tune in Nistune, because the Neo turbo ECU will be expecting to see a number of things (such as the TCS) that are not there, and you have to block the DTCs on those. It is totally not surprising to me that you are having the problems that you are, but the solutions to these problems have been known for >15 years. So just get it done.
