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.

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.

dafuq???

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

i rang to check up car rego a few months ago and thye didnt charge me

just looekd at website and its under maintenance, maybe that has something to do with it

seeing as Birds gets me to polish his car...I'm guessing no....lol

I do, it's just cheaper and less effort to pay you lol

Case in point my motorbike

But do go to Artz...he is faster and certainly cheaper...I charge nude model rates...

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.

Ok cool, thanks for that :thumbsup:

    • thanks mate, one of the reasons I even bought it to be fair.
    • I found parts on EFI Solutions webshop that seemed to be the accurate ones. I haven't gotten around to fitting the turbos back on the car yet since I still have to deal with the shitty crack in the engine block. But I'm confident that the bolts I ordered will fit. According to EFI they are also 7-16/24. The reason M11x1 got involved here is because it is apparently very similar to 7-16/24.
    • Well, to be fair to the car I've driven it daily for almost a decade now, although in that time only put on 50k, as it just recently passed 100k miles early this year. For the most part its been fine because I've been able to source parts from AUS like jacks jdm and a few places in Japan, some things like pads have been easy since 300z pads swap right in... I realize its probably at that time in its life i should find a new DD (but I rent and only have so much space, no garage) so new cars just complicate things. As it is older though, I recognize its about that time as with my '67 GTO to maybe side step and find an alternative, but if i can keep driving it... I want to.   That said, I may just look into a local shop that might be able to, problem is the mechanic I work with has limited space as a mom and pop operation, and he's a busy busy man, so id need to find out if he can keep the car in the meantime, which may or may not be practical for him. Maybe I'll just buy one off jacks jdm and get that refurbed /shrug.. just looking at options and what others may have to offer for advice on the matter. Like I said, its hard finding people around here who actually have one, I've had mine 9 and a half years and I've met 3 others, and they are all military, one was oem from 95 with 30k miles (rip that car... guy got hit after someone crossed s double yellow, totaled it)
    • I've noticed my rear springs sag a bit compared to the fronts. I have stock springs and KYB struts. The front wheels are pretty consistent in their ride height, but compared to the front wheels, one of the rears sits 20mm lower, and the other 40mm lower. This negatively affects the ground clearance, and also angles the headlights up. What are some some economical options for new springs? Or information like good spring rates, lengths  in order to find a suitable replacement etc Far from lowering the car, I'd prefer to raise it a bit to keep it ground clearance friendly.
    • I searched for ages as well, I'm importing an engine to get the head off it.
