Melisa has a doe show on at the races for her friend

Lots of drinking and carry on

As for me I'm fixing cars on Sat and prob Sunday as well

Basically, just have to put the engine & gearbox back in. I think the only thing that i'm waiting on is for Paul to finish the exhaust (you should see the front pipe he made - absolutly awesome).

Aim is to have the car running by next sat/sun and then up to Jez's for a tune next time i have time off.

I plan to start a build thread eventually, might do it tonight after work if the internet holds out (its dodgy in port hedland)

I've already got my trade but not sure if the mines are the way to go or not with all the talk of downturns in prices and the boom being over etc

boom being over yet there still hiring people and cutting into mines? i dont care ill take 75k for 6 months work man.

im not looking to own the mine i just want to work there, why would i care if it closes?

personally, i think that is a massive load of shit. does every country all of a sudden not need coal??

Parts of the mine industry are flattening dude... It should pick up again in the near future I think. Mines are getting very tight in some areas, spending is down. My mate works for rio and was concerned for his job. The company I work for is 100% mine focused, and we are all and have been twiddling our thumbs for weeks!

^^^my flat mate got a redunency last week, does a similar sort of a job to you. There's just no project work in the hunter valley atm. it will pick up again - there's just a bit of oversupply atm.

sparky mate i can go anywhere (mackay) haha.

im not limiting myself to the hunter

Yea sounds good mate, the lull in the market is everywhere though (with regards to coal) as the price is shit, and it's cutting their profit margins I think..

But by Xmas / the new year I think it should be a lot better, and I reckon in your trade you will be fine.

our super secret meeting will determine the next one, will be hopefully startish october thatll make me happy haha

on another note doing a small photoshoot tonight if your keen pm me or jarrad for details

Are you working in the mines Sean? Get me a job next year when I get my trade?! :D

FIFO out of newy, 150k a year?

Hahaha

Nah mate, i sell cars to loaded miners though :)

FIFO is pretty huge up here, hard lifestyle though i wouldn't want to do it even though the money is insane.

    • Whilst the brewery had good beer, I didn't rate the pork knuckle, the meat was good, but, there was no crackling, the skin was just thick and chewy Will return at some stage for the beer, but, I will wash the beer down with chips Plus, no sauerkraut, in what world do people serve pork knuckle without sauerkraut, they did serve apple slaw with it, which was nice, but.......#sauerkraut the world
    • Wow yeah ok. Given how specific you are about your car, I'm very surprised you are happy to do that.  As a bare minimum, without having a wideband gauge in the car or running it up on the dyno to check mixtures, there is no way I'd do that to my car.  You beat me to it, was going to say just this. 
    • Yeah - that's not true. Larger turbos flow more at the same boost. By definition. I've always found it funny when the claim of same flow same power because same boost is made. The turbine is larger, therefore will put up a lower restriction to flow at any given flow, cf the stock one. Hence, you need less boost to make the same flow through the whole system. Hence, when you have the same boost as before, you must have more flow. -5s are a pretty decent bit bigger than stock.
    • That's basically how I've been driving my R33 for a while now. GTIII-SS running wastegate boost. It makes no more power than stock because the turbos aren't flowing any more air than stock. Eventually though I need to fix this so it can actually drive as it should.
    • If this was my own car, I would pull about 5 degrees off the CAS, run a wideband, and if that seems ok, send it.
