88e announcement without mention of gushing oil. Price has crashed hard.

Hideous reaction to otherwise positive news...or as DW called it...neither materially positive or negative. Based on that, I topped up.

Still not convinced it isn't market makers shaking a tree for cheap shares but eh, 88E's base has always been shaky and when the snowball starts tumbling...

The HC geeks seem to think it's good on the whole and that artificial lift hasn't even been implemented yet which is our lifeline for the gush.

All wills can be contested if you had defendants and shitty family members who want to vulture your possessions

Unrelated, this guy...stop in and say hi flamin mongrel

Fancy seein you round these parts

What driving these days?

tis' fancy huh!
Driving nothing, making the most of Myki currently lol
If all goes to plan possibly some wheels by end of the year.... maybe something to match my plates again ?

Finally got into my old email account to get my password reset for here to start looking through everything again.
Been a looooooooooooong time, good to see the OG names still roaming around :)

If only we had 4 day 10hour working days... that would be perfect. 

Katie had that at the kids hospital then  12 hour shifts in western health for even less days attending work.

When I was Telstra support we had it for the last couple months prior to me leaving, I had my roster for 2 on 1 off 2 on 2 off, was perfect. every day was either just had time off or time off the next day so much less stress.

big fan of the idea really.

I've been an advocate of the 4 day fulltime week for a long time. Would happily take the extra hours. Remember it's not just one extra day a week to do shit you wanna do, it's one day less work too. Let's face it weeknights are mostly wasted.

Used to work 3-4 days part time and that was the best work life balance.

Skyline, nah cant trust society and these loose laws on scumbags so rather not have the headache of it being stolen.
Thinking Stagea again, didn't get to have my fun with the last one due to gearbox rebuild issues and rust of a Gemini.
The dude I sold the Stagea too ended up doing some work to it.
bigger turbo... forward facing plenum... fuel setup....ecu setup ...coilovers and the good old 20inch chromies :S
I actually found it a couple of years ago on Gumtree going for $5,000. would've been nice for parts if i had storage for it.

 

ahhh I remember you fast asleep while everyone was about to leave lol

I'd love to do a 4x 10hr day week as well. Would be awesome if part time gigs were more of a 'thing' too. 

E.G if you could take 1/5th or 2/5ths off a decent wage I'd definitely go for it. 

Not only is it less work days as birds said, it also gives you the chance to go out on your own a try something new to make the $$. 
 

Y'all sounding like a bunch of office folks.

 

Speak to dezz about 36hr weeks with 3% pay increases per year or go work in daycare if you want part time.

 

Im all about dat 70hr week 12 days straight. And thats not even FIFO. 12 on 2 off fifo roster, or 3 on 1 off 84hr weeks, dawg.

Speaking of fifo, anyone been to solomon islands? Weighing up whether i should go... Doubt there would be any instagram worthy food photos to take there. Heard its pretty unsafe and quite remote. But yolo and VWLBC.

We are a bunch of office folks 

Read this today, not sure how legit it is:

https://www.news.com.au/finance/work/careers/new-research-reveals-aussie-advertised-salaries-have-grown-over-last-year/news-story/bcdbb4071ef361db1820ccb441056c8c

But apparently education salary increase of 18% in the past year, I.T 10 percent etc. how/why would this be the case? I thought it's usually 2-3%.

Also I.T apparently 124k a year average salary, I must have a shit IT job then I guess, RIP me :( 

I guess it doesn't state whether these averages are MEAN or MEDIAN.

advertised salary's....remember that's just to get interest then they give you the real offer...

 

it's like car ad's, that's just a kick off point for negotiation.

 

 

Ah true, makes sense. 

In other news those local sports teams, should be a good game tonight.

    • The car/ECU will have all the sensor that it needs and expect to have. I think i do not have to explain to you how the Link is way better specialy if you have swapped engine   I just do not want to deal with any "problems" cuz i have only Nistune which i learned is not that great and in my case cant even deal with that speed problem (Link can) And of course it will be way more easier to tune and diagnose and safe. And for the ECU/speed problem...i dont know.
    • Per Mark Roberts of Sonictune: Mark Robert Author At this time, no. No ETA either 2016-17 models. You will be able to purchase and install a 2018.5+ TCU though   TCU purchasing and pricing info! As we near the release of TCU tuning, I am going to answer some questions I get asked often.   What do I need for TCU tuning? At this time, you will need a 2018.5+ TCU to be able to tune. If you have a 2016-to early 2018, you will need to replace your TCU with the newer version. One good way to know if your TCU is good is if you have auto upshift in manual mode in 1st gear around 6500 rpms. If your manual 1st gear goes to 7k rpm and will hit the rev limiter unless you shift, you have the older TCU.   Why do I need to buy another ecu license/phone flash if I already have it on my ECU tune? The TCU is its own computer module. It is completely separate from the ECU. Because of this, you will be required to purchase a TCU license and, if your tuner has it, the phone flash license required to tune it via phone/bluetooth.   Do I need TCU tuning? TCU tuning is NOT required. However, the faster your setup, the more it will assist in track and dragy time consistency.   If I’m ECU tuned by (tuner A) can I get my TCU tuned by (Tuner ? Yes, since it’s a different module and a completely separate flash, you can have two different tuners. However, it is highly recommend that you have both tuned by the same tuner. For me, my TCU tuning will directly complement my ECU tuning style and features and running my ECU and another TCU or vice versa MIGHT cause some issues. At this time and for the foreseeable future, I will only be tuning my current ECU tuned customers TCUs.     I have a SYVECS AWD controller. Do I still need it? Yes! The AWD controllers main job is to control your AWD system. However, with TCU tuning, you will no longer need the auto-shift function as that will be done through the TCU. The AWD controller will still be very beneficial for racers looking to maximize traction on the launch.     Shift schedule changes: holding gears longer at lower pedal input as well as max shift rpm changes. Please note, the new ECU race rom coming out will address 90% of the shitty drivability issues these cars have through custom maps from myself and Racebox—as well as others I am sure.   Increase shift speeds: as seen in the videos I’ve been posting, the TCU shifts much faster once tuned.   Increased shift pressures: as also seen in the videos, much firmer full throttle shifts.

    • The fancy pants red shock tower brace is finally incoming from MX5 Mania, getting it shipped from 'Merica has been a long and problematic process, and GWR, the 'Merican supplier will not ship directly to consumers outside of the US, Mania basically had to order a heap of them, the colour choice was silver, or red, and we all know anything red adds 5 killerwasps of dynotorques..... Whilst it does fit over a 2.5, and I've seen a few photos and videos of it being installed and fitting, google also says it might get real close to the FAB9 intake front runner, people in the US says it does fit with the FAB9 intake, except for one person who said it slightly touched.......so there is that.....LOL..... As it seems that I am the first in AU to have this combination of parts there's no local knowledge about fitment, so I'm just a willing guinea pig in this endeavour, I'll cross my fingers and toes and hope for the best In other news, I ordered stuff from China  on the same day I ordered the 23° silicone bend from Victoria, the stuff from China arrived a day ago, the 23° silicone bend is still travelling around Australia thanks to Australia Post, and "may" be here next week
    • Very good news...I contacted Racebox about it last night. My car is a 2016 so remains to be seen if it is compatible, requires a TCU swap, or is impossible.
