Ran an odometer check on my car for the lols.

90,000km @ 2004

Imported the car in 2006 with 115,000km

Will check it against service stickers to see if it lines up.

Although looks like latest owner was a car dealer...

Someone translate the original owner address. Should send him pics haha

Kanji is a pain in the arse to find the right characters then run through google translate so not gonna translate address.

Cool that it has numberplate details though. Was registered in Nagoya, Aichi prefecture.

Speaking of contacting previous owners. Found the first owner of my car on Linkedin and decided to send him a message not really expecting a response.

"Michael, you are correct - my company car sold to friends when I moved to Japan at the end of '95. They kept it until about 3 years ago - Always a good car."

Contemplating posting a photo of my payslip next week just to rustle some jimmies

If you do, expect us to hold back even less regarding unions.... and remember how butthurt you already get... ;)

I'm confident that if people on a salary took overtime pay and had union organised strikes many companies and the economy would collapse

Salary people take bonuses?

It's also written in salary contracts that there is reasonable expected overtime as part of the salary "package"

If I'm expected to work a 60+ hour week in order to do my job properly then I best be getting paid.

Inb4 chefs are slave labour

I know a couple looking for a place if you need room mates

haha gold.

f*kn this ^ (I've also never received a 'bonus') have mates in mediocre roles that constantly receive bonuses must depend on the company.

People at my current workplace/same role as me work like 8-6 or 8-7 and eat lunch at their desks - screw that I'm taking my hour lunch and doing my 8-5 - It's the only time I get to see any sunlight.

This varies depending on the organization and meeting budget - most don't give bonuses in a bad year. The thing about an office job you're trying to make a career out of, is they can't make you work overtime, but if you don't it just looks bad to upper management and you can enjoy your glass ceiling career path because ultimately they'll promote the guy who is willing to work the overtime for nothing.

Sucks but the same thing will happen with tradies when replaced with immigrant workers willing to do the same job for less.

Not if the militant unions have anything to do with it :)

You can't really complain about no bonuses Leigh if you are going to bugger off at 5pm each day lol

Dunno what's a bigger crime, the corruption or that some cleaners were supposed to be getting paid $50 an hour

    • I know it's an entirely different engine, but I noticed practically 0 difference removing or adding 2x 3in (5inch body) 400cell cats (one in each bank) with regards to sound. So changing the cat to change drone I suspect will have very very, very, very, very, very very minimal impact.
    • 200 cell cat will probably help. Do you have room to tee off a Helmholtz resonator anywhere along the exhaust? These can do wonders for drones, with a little experimentation with regards to length.
    • The car revs up through the gears much better/faster now, and fuel consumption doesn't really seem to have be affected either on a Hwy cruise, which wasn't expected  The FAB9 intake manifold has been problematic sourcing though, I've contacted Plasmaman to ask about their intake, which you can get different runner lengths spec'd, and, their different options for throttle bodies  The only real physical drawback with the Plasmaman intake is how to connect it to my current OEM style airbox, as FAB9 make a OEM style back half of the airbox to suit the larger diameter throttle body, and all that is required is a 30°bend silicone pipe to mate the throttle body to the airbox Car also goes in for some exhaust work in a week or so to fit the biggest resonator they can fit clearance wise in the front pipe to help remove some of the drone, there isn't alot of realestate under there, a rough guesstimation is it will only be about 3-400mm long and maybe 90-100mm diameter, and with a 60mm exhaust that doesn't leave alot of space for the internal volume of the resonator to do its thing I'm thinking I may need to bin the "high flow" 100 cell cat for something a bit more substantial, yeah, and restrictive, like a 200-400 cell, to help, but, I have ample room for a really large bodied cat to replace the current one which has around a 4" diameter body I may look around in the recycling bins and see if I can find a massive newish cat that was "replaced" with some new full exhaust system that the local exhaust shop in Western Sydney is doing
    • Hahah look at that smile 😂 Just like those ones on IG where they compare the husband in family photos vs husband going fishing lol. I don't think I'll participate this time, clutch isn't in and also the last time I went there were too many numpties on the cruise sessions. Nearly caused a few accidents holding up people and a few guys initiating massive kerb to kerb drifts with heaps of cars right behind them. Not to mention, there were guys on the track session using it as a power cruise session.
