Steel fabricator. Aint no mech shit in hear.

Well the business owner is actually a mech eng... LOL

He posted it up on rmit careerhub. Fair few people applied for it according to co worker

Well if the business owner retires and needs a mech eng to fill his shoes, rep me lol.

Glad you got a job man.

Meanwhile I just literally completed another online test.... and so tired! :angry:

SO your saying they will all catch fire and I'll win by default!

most 100mm attendees are "crews" with fluoro wheels... however this aint no hardpark event. so id think a bunch of edge motorworks 2JZ's and other dyno queens, plus some wannabe drifters in the motorkhana.

inb4 im right.

LOL clearly you haven't looked into the cost of private school...

Private school is a solid $500k per kid now.

$200k will almost get you through Catholic school

not even man exaggerating just a touch maybe at a stretch the elite of elite schools but literally hundreds of options that are way less than that.

Even still comparatively to some eastern suburbs you'd come out ahead anyway.

I was gonna quote but thought I'd leave it and hope everybody ignored it, lold @ the thought of 500k.

You still haven't realised it's pointless trying to talk sense into non westsiders?

I couldn't live in the west simply because of how flat and boring it is. Suburb after suburb of the same kit houses and no real hills to create views / points of interest. Sadly parts of the east are heading that way too with new estates going up and old houses being sold and subdivided to fit as much density as possible. Pat is right about that one.

Unfortunately not dude... There was a study done recently, using projected fee structures and including extra curricular expenses (that are required)

Quote is from SMH as it is the most condensed however the report appeared in all papers (before this somehow turns into a bleeding heart v conservative argument)

A parent whose child is born this year faces half a million dollars in school costs if they choose an independent school in Melbourne from pre-school to year 12.

The projected cost, which is likely to make parents question whether they can afford a private education, is roughly equivalent to the city's median house price.

A public education in Melbourne, while by no means free, is considerably cheaper, costing parents an estimated $65,484 by the end of 2030.

And parents whose children attend Catholic schools in Melbourne for their entire education can expect to pay an estimated $206,692.

The figures, which include fees, extra-curricular activities, clothing, travel and computer costs, have been calculated by the Australian Scholarships Group, based on an education costs survey of 14,000 parents in 2011.

The survey reveals Victoria is the most expensive state in Australia to educate a child in a government school and Melbourne is second only to Sydney when it comes to the cost of a private education in a capital city.

Yeah funny thing is majority of our clients are from east as they are priced out and rather than being 40/50km east they come 20km west.. The stigma is slowly dieing.

although it may be boring as birds points out its affordable, safe, clean and infinitely better value

A lot of assumptions given travel, computer, clothing depending what extra curricular activities etc

And clearly they have to be referring to your scotch level of schools.

you have to make assumptions on that stuff, however those costs are also factored into the state and catholic figures so it's not skewed in that respect.

Most of the private schools are about the same (to within say $5k and not including boarding schools)

The cheaper ones tend to be catholic schools as they are also church funded

My Catholic high school was around $5k a year from memory... Excluding books and uniform (which was always second hand).

My sister's went to private on scholarship then went public and had much more subjects to choose from and occassionally better equipment. And public school fees are "optional" as far as I'm aware

hey what you know..home life is more important than how much you spend on kids educations..

who da thunk...

    • You just need to remove the compressor housing, not the entire turbo. I would not be drilling and tapping anything with the housing still on anyways. 
    • 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.
