Mugabetown - Whoretownin' At It's Worst.

If you can convince the company that they need you and couldn't operate profitably without you, you have a winning argument. Hence $20k raise at the beginning of the year. ;-)

that is very rare, as it is seldom that one person could have such an impact on a business. Especially in the resources sector

If I amended that to 'as proftiably' would that be a more correct reflection? Of course, for this to occur, you would need to be at the top or very close to the top - especially within an arm of the business that closely related to sales.

it truly depends on the demographics of the business

Yes, if key senior personnel ie executives were to use their position as a bargaining chip to demand an increase in their remuneration package then it may work

Should it he reporting entity though - them auditors would be all over it

Especially the way the public now eyes deeply what how execs are remunerated

In a smaller sized business ie SME - most that are in a top position usually have the ability to influence everyone - making performance bonuses that much easier ;)

Jawsome!

do tell how!

I was curious too so I did a little digging on the QLD/TMR site and I found this:

Moderately-Powered Vehicle Grounds

You may apply for a certifi cate of exemption if the car you wish to

drive was manufactured before 1 January 2010 and has:

• a supercharged or turbocharged engine, not diesel powered

• a power-to-weight ratio of not more than 125kW/tonne

• no other features of a HPV listed on this form.

You application must be supported by:

• a document published by the manufacturer verifying the

power-to-weight ratio, such as the owner’s manual or

information from the manufacturer’s website; or

• a specifi cation information test report.

A specifi cation information test report is issued by an automotive

service provider and must show:

• the name and address of the organisation(s) that conducted the

test(s)

• the date of the test(s)

• vehicle make, model, VIN/chassis number

• the vehicle’s kerb weight and maximum engine power

• details about the measuring system used to conduct the test,

for example, an engine dynamometer."

From what I've been able to find a stock 33 gts-t would have around 130ish kw/t if you're going off the factory engine and weight figures from nissan. That power to weight ratio wouldn't classify for an exemption however if you were to put the car on a weigh bridge and run it on a dyno it would most likely be under 125kw/t though. So I guess it's all up to which figures they take into account when doing the exemption.

    • Put a fuel pressure gauge on it. Replace the turbos. Probably completely separate issues.
    • What copper washer do you guys use on the bleeder bolts? The existing one I have I had no idea where to find it in a local store, I did buy some online but that are only 1mm thick whereas my old one is 2mm+ thick and when I put the new washer out and squeeze the top radiator hose I can hear a bit of air but not with the old one. Does this matter? The new one doesn't leak, but the inner diameter is a bit loose whereas the old one threads on the bolt.
    • Howdy all, after being out a few weeks ago on a spirited drive in my GTR I have 2 issues that oddly have appeared at the same time. Whilst accelerating quickly through the gears all of a sudden i’ve lost power at the top of third gear (below redline around 6000rpm) for no obvious reason.    From that point onwards the car has been running rich on idle, won’t really rev under load without a ton of black smoke and the odd backfire, and dying as a pull up to a set of lights unless I keep the revs up around 1500rpm. In addition when shutting down the car that same night (I was 10 minutes from home) I noticed one of the turbos was significantly noisy on wind down when shutting off the engine. After letting the car cool down overnight it starts up fine, although once it gets to temp the revs start to creep up and down, the exhaust is darker than it should be and it also sounds like it’s running rich (fat note) I’ve put a new set of plugs in it - no change, the old plugs all seemed OK with two of them being somewhat richer/fueled up than the other 3 with 1 being borderline. I’ve smoked tested the intake system via the front of the Turbos, found a split vacuum hose going to the factory boost gauge sender, which I have since replaced.  Also found another leak on the gasket coming off the rear turbo outlet, have also replaced this. After fixing both of these leaks - still have the running rich issue. I’ve also tried another pair of AFM’s - no change here After pulling off the front turbo intake pipes, there is obvious shaft play in the front turbo, which now hisses loudly on light revvs although I can’t see why this would make the car run funny even under idle. I’m curious to know why it’s running rich before I potentially replace/rebuild turbos. The car is completely stock <50,000kms  other than an exhaust. Oil and coolant are all clear. I haven’t bothered with coil packs as it looks like they won’t be the issue due to condition of the plugs. Any help appreciated as I cry myself to sleep!
    • No probs at all. I used to love trying to dig up obscure info for those in need where possible going back 20+ years on SAU.  I did have another look and couldn't come up with any closer match. I'm leaning towards those skirts in your first pic are custom fitments, cut down/extended or from another car entirely and modded to fit an R34 sedan. I would've thought someone in Japan had them and taken a photo at some stage over the last 2 decades but there's nothing. Someone out there must know surely.
