Troy: Actually I know how you feel.... I have been with my company now for close to 4 years.... Over the last few years we have had "salary freezes" and during that time I have taken onboard about 3 times my starting duties.... plus permanent 24 hour callout.... all for naught..... I got that fed up that at christmas wrote a letter to the director of the company and explained the situation... I managed a 5 grand pay rise.... I know estimate I am only about 7 grand underpaid now.... :)

well i might go into the city for lunch today - since ive got time to burn shouldnt matter to everyone when or if i get back haha

About time i bought some new threads!

Catch yall later.

*hugs*

what really sh1ts me is that they don't even pay for my wage. yes i'm full time with them but the contract i work on pays our wage as part of the deal. also the more we get paid the more the company makes as they get a % of the pay amount so if we get paid more they make more $$$

hopefully we score this 2nd contract, then some more $$ will be available for us and also get to go to 4 days on 6 days off hehe

    • Thanks for doing that Duncan! Makes you a good person in my books. We don't get kangaroos or wombats here. But we have bats and it's similar. AFAIK it's often the mums with a baby attached that get hit because they drop lower when starting from a tree. If you hit an animal, check on it. https://www.ifaw.org/au/resources/wildlife-rescue-app An app to get the closest wildlife rescue contact.
    • My dream is also to have a proper hoist, but I don't think it will ever happen. My quickjack is probably as close as I'll ever get, it really is very good though. 
    • Yeah we keep on in the dailies, it is pretty poor how many animals get hit and the driver leaves without checking....have saved a couple of little ones over the years. Bit of a gruesome job though, pouches generally need to be cut open because they are so tight and often the joey doesn't realise mum is gone so they are still locked onto the teat. I checked the modules in front of the DS wheel where an oil cooler should go.... There is the radar unit - that can go for race use) One of the 2 HX water pumps, the silver cylinder. That needs to be kept but might be able to be relocated But the bad news, the big computer mounted vertically in front of the wheel (blocking any potential air exit) is the electric steering computer. That is required until/unless i do a hydraulic steering conversion, and in CAD based modern car design it is not like I can just pop a big unit like that somewhere else (plus the loom would be too short anywhere else too). So, the passenger side is OK to clear out (just use a smaller washer reservoir, potentially elsewhere), but the DS no beuno
    • Well, all the best with the new camry It was interesting to hear about the UK process, it is generally a lot more streamlined here with a shipping agent looking after all the import side (noting the exact final price can still be a surprise.....) and I've used a few different brokers on the japan (or US) side, and never had any trouble with any of them....luck of the draw I guess. You mentioned you didn't get the auction sheet (understandable since you bought it from a dealer, not auction), but I always try and get hold of that because they are pretty thorough. I've imported 2x R grade vehicles over the years and both were fine, repairs in Japan are pretty thorough compared to here in Oz.
    • BTW I measured the jack I have, it is 70mm at the saddle but you only have about 700 until it returns to 150mm high at the cylinder so it is good but no magic bullet.
