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.

    • Dredgggggeeee time; I have recently finally started driving the car. It sat for so long that the fuel tank gave birth to rust sludge and blocked my lift pump sock and one of my walbro 460's and left grime, rust chunks and muck all through the surge tank and system. I decided to commit and pull the trigger on an oem r32 gtr fuel tank and Frenchys twin 460 / sender / surge tank hanger combo and all new larger lines and fittings etc, also boost doc heater hose kit / new heater core and a heap of other bits and shits like wideband sensor installed in the dump and Syltech iacv + lines and all wired and added to current tune. now having lightly driven it a couple times without issue, I can happily report on the hta3076 in its current tune. still no boost control switched on, 20psi gate springs, car makes 22psi at 3200rpm in 6th gear with 30-50% TPS from cruise at 100kmh. Going by the old graph, this means it should be making 300-325whp at the same numbers above. Very very responsive setup under true road driving loads. all that's left for the build is body loom + PDM, finish the remote aircon setup, install carbon fibre parts and go for full tune and 30psi. the 315 rear tyres are now performing like they're 195's, wheel spin in any gear at almost any rpm, whereas my previous setup hooked up in 3rd no issue, albeit Nt01's back then / RB25 5spd vs (new) old date r888r's Z34 6spd now, + obviously all the support upgrades I listed in the quoted post above. car sits at 1-3psi on cruise at 100kmh, expectations totally exceeded and I'm beyond stoked with all this so far.

    • I've also been eyeing their rear axles for my car. I purchased seat mounts from them about 7 years ago and they were hot garbage so I've been a little wary about purchasing them. With that being said, please buy them and get back to us haha. 
    • Can a moderator please move this into the right category.. I've accidently put this into racing build thread 🤦🏽‍♂️
