Just had an hour long meeting to discuss what we're going to talk about during a 30 minute meeting later this evening... *sigh*

thats pretty much my view of management. its just one big hand-ball to the next person at the next meeting.

anyone around clayton/mordy area tomorrow afternoon/evening feel like helping me load the pulsar onto trailer?

dont think I could do it by myself, dont think it has a winch on it either.

...and the missurs wont be very helpful. she struggles to even guide people when theyre reversing.

You laugh now, but when I'm at a formal occasion with a shitty DJ and they need someone to drop Dre beats...I have something up my sleeve.

It was a pre-meeting before a conference call tonight with our Europe office, I was getting everyone here on the same page so we can go in as a team and yell at them for being dumbsheits, in a consistent manner.

I'll driving through clayton on my way home at about 5:30-5:45 tomorrow night if you need a hand.

awesome, thanks. theres a chance my dad might make it, so ill let you know if i do need help.

since when did vicroads charge money to check demerit points?

it was only like a year or two ago you could just ring up and it was read by the automated system, now you speak to someone and you have to pay for a report. utter bs.

I'm pretty sure that there's always been a paid report thing that you can get sent to you... But I've always just called them up, and they've told me over the phone what's up... then a few days later I receive the report in the mail anyway...

Just speak to a Vicroads team member, avoid their automated system that'll try to money grab you for basic information...

but the automated system doesnt grab money...you just enter in your licence details and it spits out the points...

I just called and it went straight to a real person... "have your licence number and credit card ready" :angry:

well hes watched me do it a couple of items so im sure he does.......I doubt he could be f**ked doing it himself though...

why whats the problem?

My boot lid has, what looks to be a paint / clear coat blemish for bird shit.

I cleaned the shit off but I have a feeling it ate through / blemished the clear coat.

if you have some cutting compound, put it on a small rag or maybe like a chux cloth or something slightly abrasive and buff it by hand,,,should get the stain out..but will leave some swirly marks in that area...which yeah ,would then require a buff..

if it has actually lifted or bubbled the clearcoat...its too late and you're stuck with it

nah my rates are gone up...then again so has the quality of my work so its only fitting...

did you dot that by hand, or bought a machine...?

By hand. Would need a Dremel and tiny pads to detail a bike / pull the fairings off it. It's just a glaze, not a proper polishing compound.

      I am yet to see anyone ever regret a quaife or helical. ...other than drifting/skidpan duties. I kind of want to upgrade my factory helical with a Quaife (but really it's not ultimately that different, and is a MASSIVE UNDERTAKING), that's how good the hype is about them, that I want to try them 'just to see'

      D2 and Ksport are essentially the same thing and basically just generic Taiwanese manufacture. Better than ChinaBay crap, but... not top shelf. Öhlins have got to be some of the best dampers around, so likely to be a good option. It's going to get to the point though where I suggest you buy from Oz. We have at least 2x excellent options here. If I were you though, I'd be talking to KW about doing something for the R33. There's bugger all difference between that and the 32. In GTR land, anyway.

      KW only offers a set for the R32 GTR. Popular options are D2 racing, Ksport or Öhlins. I have a D2 Racing coilover set, though I don't know for sure which one.

      Well, the good news is you have more than one very good option for new coilovers in and around your country. Worth the drive over to KW to talk about GTR stuff.

      Fair enough, I am in no way a tire expert so I'm not familiar with all the terms and conditions. I'll definitely note down the AD09 to potentially try in the future. Rain is not too big of a concern for now as I will probably only drive in the rain when I have to. And considering I still lack experience driving the GTR I'd more than likely take it easy too. I have coilovers in the car but as I barely got to drive so far I never bothered to even check if they are adjustable haha. The suspension is almost entirely old and worn as well so I suppose when I eventually fix that in the future that would make a huge difference.
