Come on guys, get on it... You know how these things normally go, once we hit 5 or 6 people on the thread it starts to snowball into a big thing

Sure beats the crap out of 1st year junior apprentice $7.44/hour award.

how is that allowed? I know electrician apprentices often get shit-all, but a quick check on PayCheck Plus for full-time junior apprentice is over $15 an hour. i dun geddit.

Tell that to the thousands being made redundant

its sad thats theres so many positions disappearing, but not much different from food or manufacturing industry.

That is a really chitty pay mate

Don't know how they pay you less than a bloke that just flips burgers

How many years before you on a normal wage of say $50K p.a?

My first job in a call centre was $19 an hour I think :\ (20 years old)

Pretty shitty job too.

I worked weekends for time and a half and they had some 'issues' (bugs) with the payroll system so ended up on about 64k p.a

Terrible job though quit under a year.

at least you get paid something while you learn, unlike dem uni fees.

Yeah there's a difference between Uni + Part Time Job and Full Time and getting paid the same amount for twice the hours... Normally not left with a $30,000 debt at the end of it though I suppose

Still have to pay for tafe doe.

Edit: and really I learnt just as much about a different field as a labourer earning 50k a year. Spending a week at tafe out of every month although paid is for the most part a massive waste of time. Units rated at 60 hours and such really only take maybe 2 hours to complete and then the rest of the day is spent sitting twiddling thumbs waiting for a teacher who's busy with other students (because classes are far too large and teachers are far too few so the tafe stays profitable) to sign you off so you can go onto the next assesment.

Completely different industry, never done any overtime as a mechanic.Although I'm sure it happens some places in my experience everyone seems rather more concerned with packing up 15 mins before knock off.

    • 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.
