Thought there might be a keen talented mechanic surfing this forum, or someone here might know a mechanic suitable.

Must be honest, talented and organised and not talk too much. Prefer non smoker and hard worker who reads Zoom magazines.

NO you don't have to work on 300ZX's too much, we specialise in Nissans and do heaps of GTR's and GTS-T's. You can play Skylines all day 5 or 6 days a week. Get to Play Grand Turismo for real.

We do minor service to full engine rebuilds with lots of mods etc. See our site for more info.

Pay is better than currently on. Guaranteed to learn lots and have a rewarding challenging job. Experience with turbo's and performance cars preferred but not essential. Minimum 4th year apprentice but prefer fully qualified. :thankyou:

What about a mature aged apprentice ?? :)

Seriously, a good, enthusiastic, keen, mechanic with the right attitude will learn heaps and go far in the performance and modified world working at UAS.

If you a sick of endless oil changes and brake pad changes - give John a call - ECU upgrades, Turbo changes, Dyno Tuning - not just your average workshop....

And the challenge is to get my car into the 11s at WSID, 1:5x at EC and sub 1:10 at wakefield

Non smoker, read zoom mag and have worked as T/A Mechanic ( for toyota dealership) for a short time. No quals, but been workin on cars since i was 13.

I have been interviewing heaps and some are talkers unfortunatley. Some with lots of papers and qualifications but end up not being suitable. I have other mechs that are more layed back with little to no references and end up being stars. I am sure there are some people who are better mechs because thay are enthusiasts and INTERESTED than qualified mechs that don't care or lack talent. Confidence is a good thing but Bull shyting about what they can do and have done bla bla.

V8skylineman I have sent you a PM as you sound dangerous in a good way and possibilities, can't you buy a mechanics licence, and I think it is a bit far to come to work each day?

Benm and others out there you must know of good mechs?

if only this job came up 10-12 months ago, i was ready to move to the mainland then for work. there is next to no performance workshops down here. apprentice mechs do oil/filter changes for 5 years and don't learn shit. which is why i refused to become one here.

Tasmania the unlucky state!

don't have any good cheap RB25DETs up there do u? been trying to source a reasonably priced one for ages, that water pump i bought off u guys last year didn't end up being the problem, now i need a new engine!

Benm and others out there you must know of good mechs?
rofl, I live out in the West, I have to bring my car all the way to UAS because no 1 out here understands Imports.

    • We have a huge update coming in the next few months, version 5 of Invision will be released. I'm holding off any changes until after this change as I'm not sure what features will be removed or introduced.
    • Yeah, plenty of air flow, there is a dedicated path that feeds the air in to the OEM intake tube behind the bumper As for a "tangible effect", maybe, but getting the pod/intake air out of the hot engine bay is worth it psychologically to me, even if it gives no performance difference, so the tangible effect in my Lizard brain saysss yessss  In the end, to me a tangible effect isn't always about performance, sometimes it a sound or a look, or even a...... feeling  Ooga-Chaka Ooga-Ooga Ooga-Chaka Ooga-Ooga Ooga-Chaka Ooga-Ooga Ooga-Chaka Ooga-Ooga
    • yeah first and reverse is where you will find clutch release issues (whether hydraulic or mechanical) because the difference in revs required is the highest there; particularly changing down from 2nd to 1st when still moving. To be clearer though, it is possible that the clutch release bearing is the wrong height. This is less likely than a hydraulic issue but it is not unheard of when you are mixing and matching
    • Quite right, if you make it to that pension you deserve every cent
    • Hi all, Restoring r33 series 1 rb25det. All the heater hoses were on their way out, have replaced them and put it all back together. After testing I noticed a small leak from behind the head on the actual metal water line to the turbo when cars warm. I tried running a longer hose over it but it kept leaking...   I am about to take the (stock) manifold off again😔 to change the water line does any one have any lines they recommend? I was looking at Aeroflow Turbo Oil & Water Line Set but not sure what everyone else recommends. Car is completely stock but want to upgrade turbo eventually. it looks like ill have to disconnect a lot just to replace these lines so if there's anything else recommended to do please let me know. Thank you in advance!
