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.

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.

      Its a 2002 vr-x four VQ25DET, silver. Coil overs, lowered, polished alloys and sport exhaust. Bit of a project, was sitting in a shed for a while but runs and drives great.

      I wasn’t able to replicate the sound anymore. It was a one time sound so maybe it was just coincidence but it was like small pebbles being dropped in a coke can.   should I try cleaning the MAF? It could be it’s functioning but dirty? I don’t know.

      Update 4: Hi all. The car drives again! Haven't driven for long, only to store it in the garage again, but the test drive was successful. The coolant and oil leaks seem to be fixed for now. Temps on the engine were also very good, while moving I never even saw 80C water during the approx. 30 minute drive. Ate up all the coolant in the reservoir though so will have to fill that even more when I go to the car next time. One thing that pisses me off is that the RPM gauge is still f**ked, I even resoldered the board twice and used copper paste on the silly screws that are used as connections. Next time I take it out I'll take apart the board and fit new components, I'll see if I can get a replacement IC for it.  I have an appointment set for 22nd of September for the engine tune to 370hp. Alignment also still needs to be done. My hope is that I can get all the legal stuff over with by the end of this season. Anyone of you have advice regarding intercoolers? Currently there is an APEXI core fitted, one of those weird hybrid ones, 600x270x76. I don't think it's bad but it's not new and now I still have the chance to change it now to legally include it in the paperwork. Only issue is that the only options that would arrive in time are a HKS Type R intercooler or generic Ebay spec intercoolers comparable to a JustJap one. Ideally I'd order a Plazmaman but it takes over a month to receive which would mean making the car legal has to wait until next season. Would love to hear some input on this. Same story for my injectors, the previous owner was a nunce and put ID 1050x on the engine. They work but are obviously not ideal at "normal" power levels. But I don't see a reason to change them unless the tuner says it's necessary. I read online before buying a different exhaust that the top secret style rear diffusers won't fit due to the size of the rear resonators. My buddy and I made it work by slightly "adjusting the shape" of the mounting bracket and making some spacers out of 3d print for the mounting bolts. Fits like a charm. Just putting this here in case someone has this problem. Even the hefty HKS Silent Hi Power rear can fits without hitting anything.
