I'm a "computer wiz" and take photos in my spare time.

My father in law engineers/machines all kinds of engine race parts - if anyone ever needs something custom done just send us the specs. My brother in law is a mechanic and my brother and cousin are automotive engineers.

One day I'll get around to starting a race team...

Well first i thought it meant Rotary Hemi Electronic injection Twin Turbo

Then i realised it is just my first name wih Xs each side, like straight edge hardcore guys used to do back in the day. Hardcore as in <span id="MUSIC" class=xxxxkeyword onmouseover="onmo(this);" onmouseout="inMenu=false;hide(this);">music</span>.

Ive been working for the last 2 years doing autocad and Proengineer.  I can also use SolidEdge pretty well and work is soon changing over to Unigraphics, so ill soon have that down pretty well soon.

I can also use Fluent for performaing computational fluid dynamics problems and use Nastran/Femap for finite element analysis. Hows that sound?

Putting all that theory in uni in actual use in the work place is the secret. :lol:

have it already half full, and you've got yourself a deal

but you better get me maximum refund

$40 and you have a deal. PM me if you are still interested. Anybody else want any accounting work done for cheap $$$? Financial statements if you own a business? If anyone is interested, send me a PM and I will get back to you.

Skybee, you should pick up where Auto-rust... sorry Autotrust :D left off, Danny used to do a fair few electical problem solving on SAU member cars. He's packed up shop these days though, and we constantly get guys who've just imported cars in VIC who want alarms fitted n stuff.

I'm a photographer.

Mainly shoot fashion/glamour style stuff ..... but dabble in a bit of product & sports photography at times (yeah to Comm Games coming up!! :D ).

And no guys, l don't need an assistant!! :lol:

I agree, someone should create a directory, so we can have our own mini SAU Vic trades and services directory. That way, we can all use each others services - giving us all more money to spend on our cars :D

There used to be a thread that had what everybody did for a job in it. inark started it late last year i think.

heh ..who is my daddy and what does he do?

will pay cash as im over it not starting

EY, i work for John Blair motor sales, Honda/Alfa romeo dealership corner of chaple and high street, in the parts department so anyone who wants any honda or alfa parts pm me ill get you my staff discount its really good on genuine parts, non-gen probably not that much better than what most other people here can get

unarmed_skyline, so you'd know how to use Honda EPC (electronics parts catalogue) wouldn't ya? I can't seem to navigate around it, is there a cheat sheet of some sort?

hey paul,

got the same thing with mine too at the moment, but only started happening after i had bosch 040, pfc, avcr installed & tuned.

i've got a remote start that would occasionally take 2 goes to start before the tune, but the key would start it instantly everytime.

    • Hey keep the ideas coming, I'm always keen on projects! But, problem fixed!  I got a cheapie ozito scope from Bunnings and had a good look in and around the bearing and sensor hole. I couldn't see a smoking gun but the bearing looked a bit strange, especially when comparing with a new one. I thought the cover had come off the bearing magnets.  Sorry for pics of a screen, I didn't have an SD card.     Good thing I had the old one to inspect. So, given I'm like a pit crew with wheel bearings and luckily I had a spare bearing because I f**ked up my parts order, I decided to just smash it out. Got the old one out in about an hour. So much easier when the parts haven't had a chance to rust together yet. 😂 And, well, found the problem.    In the second pic at about the 8 o'clock position, you'll see what I think is the tip of the old sensor.  The new sensor has definitely been rubbing but it's all intact, just a little shiny so I'm hoping it's fine.  The car brakes perfectly now and no errors.  I think the job took about 2.5h in the end. 👍🏻 I really appreciate the help in here as usual. Thanks guys.
    • I was only looking because I saw some drops on the ground but it wasn't alot. Recently had it serviced will ask the mech to confirm. Find it strange that it looks standard though, can see in another photo of a random box 
    • So...not sure if you know if that has always been there or why you went looking. It could be old damage from a clutch explosion, or even just the gearbox got dropped somewhere along the line. Basically, you should seal it up to stop oil and dust getting into the bellhousing, but it doesn't matter too much and is not structural. I'd suggest something like a glob of JB Weld. BTW what gearbox oil are you running, I would guess the breather has been spewing it everywhere.
    • Hey Duncan thanks for your reply. Sorry mate I know the photos are shit.  Took another photo for reference. Seems the casing does have a hole in it looking on the net, fluid seeping out. Added a photo   
    • Very hard to make out what you mean, is it the squarish hole with redline shockproof (probably) under it? Is that pic from on top of the engine with the firewall to the left of pic and engine to the right? Either way, spray the area liberally with degreaser and try again, maybe circle the part you are worried about
