get yourself into the building trade, as a ordinary worker youll make about 1000 dollars clear a week including all funds paid, eg: super, redundancy, long service, its a good way to start.

Yeah thats true...

A guy I know goes to work and sleeps in the bathtubs of the units they are renevating and still gets paid....

Those pics are some nice work man!!!

Thanks dood :)

he sounds fat...is he fat?..hehehe...sorry..its just an image i had in my head..

anyway, found myself a sales/marketing job...its pretty scary, i havent done that kinda thing before..but its promising..i'll see how it goes. :rant:

mate if you can do sales work it can be great money! personally I hate it but some are really good at it...good luck

out of interest, why aren't you looking for work with a graphic design company?

Good sales people get paid to lie, manipulate the truth and generally set false expectations (for a proportion of the time they are in sales)

That's why I could never do it.

Good on those that can do it and still live with themselves is all I can say !

I know I will get shit canned for saying that - but that's what I beleive. And I am entitled to think however I want - So fcuk off :rofl: he he he ! :rofl:

I was looking for a design job since before december last year...the market is saturated and nobody wants me (everybody wants 1-2 years experience). Its only by chance i found this job whilst looking around at what else i could do.

bman, youre entitled to have your opinion. I know sales people talk alot of bs, thats generally because they havent been trained enough on whatever theyre selling...so they spin shiz to make themselves sound like they know what theyre talking about...

so long as im not blowing truths out of proportion i think i'll be able to live with myself doing this job...then again whos to say i wont succeed due to my honesty?...

Frinik/anyone,

There may be a position that is opening up where I work on the Northern Beaches. The new guy we hired doesn’t seem to be up to scratch.

We create electronic car catalogues for car dealerships around the world to use - part interpreters use them. We cover Ford Australia, Ford North America, Ford Japan, General Motors (global), Daihatsu, Hyundai, land rover, etc. etc.

The job would involve checking the correctness of both the GUI and the data which means you'd have to be a logical thinker, know about car parts, and know how to work a computer. On the down side the job can be repetative but on the up side there are opportunities once you've proven yourself as a hard worker to become get into marketing/development/management/graphic design/legal/accounts/etc.

I'll keep an eye out when/if the position becomes vacant.

hey that sounds pretty cool... location wise it isnt too good for me tho...i live in the sutherland shire...ill give this job a stab...

its actually a consultant company and basically what i do is give small to medium sized companies a free analysis of their phonebills (mobile, landline and internet) and see how i can save them money. I have access to give whatever companies i visit corporate rates which is pretty friggen cheap (offer is also extended to personal accounts spending a fair bit on their bills) The other day I went into a small design studio and showed them how they could save +$1000 annually on their phone bill ...they were doing a happy dance once i showed them... so if any of you guys/gals want a free analysis of your bill from wherever you work or home just give me a call on 0402854796 and ill organise a meeting and see how much money i can save you...im more than happy to help out fellow SAU members....(Sydney only)

more money saved = more money spent on turbos :P

    • Even more fun, leave all the ADAS stuff plugged in, but in different locations, hopefully avoid any codes!   And honestly, all these new cars with their weird electronics. Pull all the electronics out Duncan, and just shove an aftermarket ECU and if needed a trans controller in, along with a PDM. Make it run basic but race car styled!
    • To follow up a question from earlier too since I had the front bar off again (fking!) This is what is between the bumper and the drivers side wheel And this is the navigator side, only one thing but its a biggy! So basically....no putting coolers in the wheel arches without a lot of moving other stuff. Assuming I move to properly race prepping this car I'll take that job on and see how the computers respond to removing a whole bunch of ADAS modules
    • So I prepped the car for another track day on Wednesday (will be interesting to see coolant temps post flushing out and the larger reservoir, with a forecast of 3-14 being 20o cooler than last time I took it out). Couple of things to mention; since I am just driving the car and not taking a support vehicle, I took the rear seats out and just loaded the back up Team Trackday style. Look at all that space! To cover off removing the rear seat....it is weird (note the hybrid is probably different because it wouldn't have folding rear seats) Basically, you remove the lower seat base, very similar to a r series but it is a clip that pulls forward to release the base rather than it being bolted down. Easy Then, you need to remove the side section of the rear seat on each side. There is a 14mm head nut at the bottom of the side piece, the it slides upwards off a hook at the top to release; you also need to unhook the seatbelt from the loop at the top. Then the centre piece is weird. You need to release/fold the seats forward with the tab in the boot on each side From there, there are 2,x12mm headed bolts holding the rear of each seat to the folding bracket, under the trim between the rear seat and the boot (4x christmas tree clips there, they suck). The seat is out but you can see where the bolts attach to the bracket
    • As discussed in the previous post, the bushes in the 110 needed replacing. I took this opportunity to replace the castor bushes, the front lower control arm, lower the car and get the alignment dialled in with new tyres. I took it down to Alignment Motorsports on the GC to get this work done and also get more out of the Shockworks as I felt like I wasn't getting the full use out of them.  To cut a very long story short, it ended up being the case the passenger side castor arm wouldn't accept the brand new bush as the sleeve had worn badly enough to the point you could push the new bush in by hand and completely through. Trying a pair of TRD bushes didn't fix the issue either (I had originally gone with Hardrace bushes). We needed to urgently source another castor arm, and thankfully this was sourced and the guys at the shop worked on my car until 7pm on a Saturday to get everything done. The car rides a lot nicer now with the suspension dialled in properly. Lowered the car a little as well to suit the lower profile front tyres, and just bring the car down generally. Eternally thankful for the guys down at the shop to get the car sorted, we both pulled big favours from our contacts to get it done on the Saturday.  Also plugged in the new Stedi foglights into the S15, and even from a quick test in the garage I'm keen to see how they look out on the road. I had some concerns about the length of the LED body and whether it'd fit in the foglight housing but it's fine.  I've got a small window coming up next month where I'll likely get a little paint work done on the 110 to remove the rear wing, add a boot wing and roof wing, get the side skirt fixed up and colour match the little panel on the tail lights so that I can install some badges that I've kept in storage. I'm also tempted to put in a new pair of headlights on the 110.  Until then, here's some more pictures from Easter this year. 
    • I would put a fuel pressure gauge between the filter and the fuel rail, see if it's maintaining good fuel pressure at idle going up to the point when it stalls. Do you see any strange behavior in commanded fuel leading up to the point when it stalls? You might have to start going through the service manual and doing a long list of sensor tests if it's not the fuel system for whatever reason.
