Well I am moving to QLD in July, finally taking the step.

Odds are I will be staying in Brisbane with family friends until I find a job that will pay sufficiently for me to cover my costs.

I drive an A31 cefiro and will be taking this car over with me when I come.

Question is, would anyone be able to assist me in getting any work in either brisbane or goldcoast. I am willing to do anything work wise(within reason).

Look forward to meeting you guys when I am over

Queensland is the best state in Australia full stop :) I made the move in December from Victoria (eek), and haven't looked back!

Can be hard to find work when you first move up, and I'll admit i was unemployed for about 2 months, but if you're keen and speak to enough people eventually you'll find something. It all works out in the end.

Is it just to be near me? *flutters eyelashes*

Oh and I do believe previous threads have reached the conclusion that a cefiro is _NOT_ a skyline. And now you know.

Its ok summoner, I'm on your side. *random glares at other people*

I'll give the cefiro a go in brutis. He's tasted nissan blood and wants more. (course, he got whupped, but thats hardly the point)

Andrew, old brutis got beaten by a sigma.... :)

But yeah, if you a forklift ticket, you shouldnt have too many probs getting something over here.

A 2.6L sigma with a turbo the size of a small african nation strapped onto it! Damn thing took 4 strong black men to lift into the car and the careful whipping and direction of a trained midget to get it all lined up and even fit in the car!

... And as a conclusion, your honour, I draw your attention to said sigma the very next week with a blown engine whereas Brutis (exhibit A) is still going strongly many months later. I have no further questions your honour, and rest my case. *sits down to applauding*

You were alone most of today weren't you?

Welcome Mark! It'll be great to finally meet you after many years of internet chatting :)

    • The rain is the best time to push to the edge of the grip limit. Water lubrication reduces the consumption of rubber without reducing the fun. I take pleasure in driving around the outside of numpties in Audis, WRXs, BRZs, etc, because they get all worried in the wet. They warm up faster than the engine oil does.
    • When they're dead cold, and in the wet, they're not very fun. RE003 are alright, they do harden very quickly and turn into literally $50 Pace tyres.
    • Yeah, I thought that Reedy's video was quite good because he compared old and new (as in, well used and quite new) AD09s, with what is generally considered to be the fast Yokohama in this category (ie, sporty road/track tyres) and a tyre that people might be able to use to extend the comparo out into the space of more expensive European tyres, being the Cup 2. No-one would ever agree that the Cup 2 is a poor tyre - many would suggest that it is close to the very top of the category. And, for them all to come out so close to each other, and for the cheaper tyre in the test to do so well against the others, in some cases being even faster, shows that (good, non-linglong) tyres are reaching a plateau in terms of how good they can get, and they're all sitting on that same plateau. Anyway, on the AD08R, AD09, RS4 that I've had on the car in recent years, I've never had a problem in the cold and wet. SA gets down to 0-10°C in winter. Not so often, but it was only 4°C when I got in the car this morning. Once the tyres are warm (ie, after about 2km), you can start to lay into them. I've never aquaplaned or suffered serious off-corner understeer or anything like that in the wet, that I would not have expected to happen with a more normal tyre. I had some RE003s, and they were shit in the dry, shit in the wet, shit everywhere. I would rate the RS4 and AD0x as being more trustworthy in the wet, once the rubber is warm. Bridgestone should be ashamed of the RE003.
    • This is why I gave the disclaimer about how I drive in the wet which I feel is pretty important. I have heard people think RS4's are horrible in the rain, but I have this feeling they must be driving (or attempting to drive) anywhere close to the grip limit. I legitimately drive at the speed limit/below speed the limit 100% of the time in the rain. More than happy to just commute along at 50kmh behind a train of cars in 5th gear etc. I do agree with you with regards to the temp and the 'quality' of the tyre Dose. Most UHP tyres aren't even up to temperature on the road anyway, even when going mad initial D canyon carving. It would be interesting to see a not-up-to-temp UHP tyre compared against a mere... normal...HP tyre at these temperatures. I don't think you're (or me in this case) is actually picking up grip with an RS4/AD09 on the road relative to something like a RE003 because the RS4/AD09 is not up to temp and the RE003 is closer to it's optimal operating window.
    • Either the bearing has been installed backwards OR the gearbox input shaft bearing is loosey goosey.   When in doubt, just put in a Samsonas in.
