Need to paint the D1Rs black so no one can see them properly.
Theres that falcon on bags that was wrapped like an aqua green colour... White D1Rs spoiled it.
I also thought 18's were too small for gloria, but reducing tyre width made heaps of difference. Also good luck try to sell wheels without tyres. People too tight assed about it. Its like rego and selling cars.

True, they only Achilles but still pretty new / decent enough for now.

Dunno, some kid is keen af for the BBS's trying to get money together, maybe this will make it affordable :P 

Also birds those were Stance SC5's or what ever :P 

 

Here you go same car with your favourites

Anywho, enough ford talk, lets talk about Mohsen.

These look shit house Leigh, apprentice across the road from me has them on his FG X XR6T and they look proper shit house. Don't do it!

HR rarely stuff up any annual leave / salary calculation. It's probably covered in some fine print in the contract.

I'd say the opposite, unless you work for a big corporation.

I deal with many errors on a regular basis.

Most HR or book keepers have no idea of the tax law and Fair work entitlements in regards to staff entitlements

Transaction errors perhaps but I've found contractual calculations are usually accurate to the decimal point as they had to go thru approvals/legal/payroll etc

 

It's a minor error, but it's still there...

Standard working hours at that place used to be 9-5 with a 30 min unpaid lunchbreak, so a 7.5h/day = 37.5h week. Thus 20 days of Annual Leave would accrue at  (20d x 7.5h) / 52w = 2.88h/week

When workplace agreements were the thing to do (8 years ago) they drafted one up and change it to be a 38h week and made everyone work an extra 30 minutes on Wednesday evenings.

So since that time, the hours were 38/h week, which should have accrued at (20d x 7.6h) / 52w = 2.92h/week... but just looked at the payslips and although our hours were changed to 38, it was still accruing at the 37.5 rate. (They forgot to update it in MYOB 8 years ago)

Only noticed because in July this year they changed to Xero and I just spotted that the number is different to what it normally was.

So technically, they've shortchanged everyone... only a little bit of time per week... but for someone like me who has worked there for the entire 8 year period it adds up to about $700. (There are a few other staff that it would apply to as well, some at a higher hourly rate than I was on)

Same thing with accruing Sick Leave, but thats a moot point now.

Also, I had 5.5 hours of Time in Lieu which was "earnt" by getting up at 1am a few months back and fixing a major IT crisis as it unfolded... That didn't get paid out in my final pay, not sure of the legislation around that, can't find anything in the work place agreement so it should fall back to National Standards.

Leroy how much you pay to enter?

$25 to spectate.

it sounded like it would be fun to watch. uleh's and old men getting competitive and racing each other for money. good to see some fast cars, but also cars break and maybe a punch-on. looks like its 1/8th mile (not sure if good thing?) and no timeslips, good ol' lights win.

and I think up to 200 people are allowed to spectate from the start line which is kind of cool.

You should start an office rumour about it
  • Like 1

Going to casually mention it to them if I do happen get called in over the next few weeks to help fixing their phone system which is currently broken... If I bring it up myself, I doubt I'll get called in if they think I'm just money grabbing

subtle salary suggestion there Simon

 

I assume they treated you well and leaving on good terms to not mention the variance

 

Otherwise why would you forgo the money with just a hey your calcs are wrong m8 

subtle salary suggestion there Simon



Shit you'd be doing well to calculate his salary from that info, particularly given the payrises/promotions over an 8 year period

Easy

Annual leave is paid at the current hourly rate, you dont need to know his payrate during the 8 year period only the end

Yes I had 100 hours TIL and got paid out at last place, you should be able to fight it but for 5.5 hours probably not worth it

    • I'm looking for some real world experiences/feed back from anyone who has personally ran a EFR7670 with a 1.05 exhaust housing or a .83 I'm leaning towards the .83 because its a street car used mostly for spirited driving in the canyons roads. I"m not looking for big numbers on paper. I want a responsive powerband that will be very linear to 8000 rpm. I dont mind if power remains somewhat flat but dont want power to drop off on top. The turbo I've purchased is a 1.05, although the mounting flange T3 vs T4 and internal vs external waste gates are different on both housings, I not concern about swapping parts or making fabrication mods to get what I want. Based on some of the research I've done with chat gpt, the 1.05 housing seems to be the way to go with slightly more lag and future proofing for more mods but recommends .83 for best response/street car setup. AI doesn't have the same emotions as real people driving a GTR so I think you guys will be able to give me better feed back 😀   
    • Surely somebody has one in VIC. Have you asked at any shops?  Is this the yearly inspection or did you get a canary?
    • This is where I share pain with you, @Duncan. The move to change so many cooling system pieces to plastic is a killer! Plastic end tanks and a few plastic hose flanges on my car's fail after so little time.  Curious about the need for a bigger rad, is that just for long sessions in the summer or because the car generally needs more cooling?
    • So, that is it! It is a pretty expensive process with the ATF costing 50-100 per 5 litres, and a mechanic will probably charge plenty because they don't want to do it. Still, considering how dirty my fluid was at 120,000klm I think it would be worth doing more like every 80,000 to keep the trans happy, they are very expensive to replace. The job is not that hard if you have the specialist tools so you can save a bit of money and do it yourself!
    • OK, onto filling. So I don't really have any pics, but will describe the process as best I can. The USDM workshop manual also covers it from TM-285 onwards. First, make sure the drain plug (17mm) is snug. Not too tight yet because it is coming off again. Note it does have a copper washer that you could replace or anneal (heat up with a blow torch) to seal nicely. Remove the fill plug, which has an inhex (I think it was 6mm but didn't check). Then, screw in the fill fitting, making sure it has a suitable o-ring (mine came without but I think it is meant to be supplied). It is important that you only screw it in hand tight. I didn't get a good pic of it, but the fill plug leads to a tube about 70mm long inside the transmission. This sets the factory level for fluid in the trans (above the join line for the pan!) and will take about 3l to fill. You then need to connect your fluid pump to the fitting via a hose, and pump in whatever amount of fluid you removed (maybe 3 litres, in my case 7 litres). If you put in more than 3l, it will spill out when you remove the fitting, so do quickly and with a drain pan underneath. Once you have pumped in the required amount of clean ATF, you start the engine and run it for 3 minutes to let the fluid circulate. Don't run it longer and if possible check the fluid temp is under 40oC (Ecutek shows Auto Trans Fluid temp now, or you could use an infrared temp gun on the bottom of the pan). The manual stresses the bit about fluid temperature because it expands when hot an might result in an underfil. So from here, the factory manual says to do the "spill and fill" again, and I did. That is, put an oil pan under the drain plug and undo it with a 17mm spanner, then watch your expensive fluid fall back out again, you should get about 3 litres.  Then, put the drain plug back in, pump 3 litres back in through the fill plug with the fitting and pump, disconnect the fill fitting and replace the fill plug, start the car and run for another 3 minutes (making sure the temp is still under 40oC). The manual then asks for a 3rd "spill and fill" just like above. I also did that and so had put 13l in by now.  This time they want you to keep the engine running and run the transmission through R and D (I hope the wheels are still off the ground!) for a while, and allow the trans temp to get to 40oC, then engine off. Finally, back under the car and undo the fill plug to let the overfill drain out; it will stop running when fluid is at the top of the levelling tube. According to the factory, that is job done! Post that, I reconnected the fill fitting and pumped in an extra 0.5l. AMS says 1.5l overfill is safe, but I started with less to see how it goes, I will add another 1.0 litres later if I'm still not happy with the hot shifts.
