nothing wrong with apprenticeships don't waste your time at school if you don't want to really be there . Thing is most kids coming through now want to sit behind desk's the amount of quality trades people is getting thin .You do have the chance to make a pretty decent living in the future but don't except to earn very much while doing the apprenticeship.

Most of the good jobs aren't advertised in the media but more by word of mouth , ring around a heap of places try to sound half switched on and you might be suprised at what you come up with .

take the advice from the others on this forum, stay in school man, get a job that pays real money and has benifits.

i used to works at a really good workshop on good cars but youd be surprised how fast it all goes to hell and you find yourself working on crap for no money.

i hate school, learnin bout shit that is no use

apprenticeships suck

just make sure you try it out before you jump into an apprenticeship, because its a lot of hard work, making about the same pay as a forklift driver (in any car trade), and thats when your fully qualified. did i mention apprenticeships suck?

but yeh just try it out first, because it might not be what you think it is

If you leave school you’re going to regret it. Your just one of those too cool for school kids aren’t you. What year are you in? Does your school offer VET/VCAL?

Have to admit VCE is as hard as they say, almost makes me want to drop out but im not going to end up anywhere good in the long run if I do.

you know wat really shits me is when people say stay in school

wats the point of sitting there and doing nothing for 2 years when you could get into wat you wanna do 2 years earlier?

thats the mistake i made.

if you know wat you wanna do go out there and do a trade and be proud that you can do things yourself.

not just anyone can become a good tradesperson.

but any clown can sit behind a desk and play with a computer.

    • HFM BM57 has a "bad" knee point, IIRC. It's not the same thing as the later R chassis MC.
    • The ATTESSA is functionally identical to R34; there were a bunch of JDM models that continued ATTESSA including Fuga/Q70, Skyline/Q50, Cima etc as an option. All with Auto only and I think mostly for snow regions. AFAIK there were no AWD VR30DDTT sold in Australia - it is on my to do list to check regs for racing a LHD car in Targa/ATR/AASA/CAMS events because if I can get the auto to work it would be interesting to run a 4wd car The Ecuteck TCM tuning is the same model as their ECU tuning, they already have it for R35 and Dose's favourite, BMW. You buy "points" to allow your computer to be tuned, buy either a bluetooth (phone app) or bluetooth+USB+Key (phone and PC) dongle, and pay for a tune that will be locked to your tuner ( ). You can also access the tuning software yourself but 1. it is mega expensive and 2. these computers have a billion parameters that intersect, so how could you ever spend enough time on it to get a decent result.
    • Or, is it a case of what it is like owning an R series Skyline? NFI what the previous owner has done or fiddled with... Ha ha ha After reading through this thread, I went on a bit of a research about the Q50/Q60. Now I'm quite intrigued by them! Is the AWD in them more like a WRX where it's always AWD, or is it more like the ATTESSA in the GTRs? By the sound of this TCU tuning, this sounds like a case of someone has made some real software for it, and you just need the right piece of hardware, and then you license that specific vehicle/TCU. Or is this a case of the software will be really expensive so only a few tuners have it, and you still have to pay a license per vehicle?
    • By popular demand.. it was a coil. Got my hands on 1 new OEM coil, replaced with the one that made the less noise difference when I unplugged it while the car was running and started the car up. No stutter and the engine light was gone. I guess I’ll buy the other 5 they have lol
    • No, code 21 is very straightforward. It can only be the things described in that diagnostic flow. In fact it has no way of knowing that the spark plug resistance is out of spec.
