I agree and disagree with Andrew. I work for Telstra and have worked for Optus and IBM. It really depends which part of the organisation that you work. IBM is a big company - this means red tape. Telstra has this and so does Optus - All big companies do. If you want to work on Big Networks, these are the sorts of companies you want to target - Forget working for Cisco or Nortel - these guys just want to just flog products.

You also have to consider the area within IT that you want to work or aspire to work. Operations (good grounding but you wouldn't want to work there for ever) Architecture, Design, Product Development, Systems, Testing ? There are heaps of areas.

In terms of IT Operations, Telstra , Optus, IBM - they are all the same - Obstinate roadblocks :P

"Cisco or Nortel - these guys just want to just flog products."

goto completely disagree with you there - that could be said for any company you work in especially if it's in a project manager or sales role.

while working for cisco as a tech support - I learnt a hell of a lot more there than I have since - working for a vendor gives you an in depth knowledge and access to information the general public don't get.

forget the csiro,or mscs and what not, try getting a J.O.B that would be the best thing i suggest.

Cos i'm sure working at mcdonalds will really help you break into networking..

he's trying to find out what he can do to get a better job in an industry that he wants to get into..

finished studying network engineering and CCNA preperation for CCNA exam....bu didnt go for it cus i was lazy lol

and now just doing level 1 help desk, until i get my CCNA and experience and then go for a proper network support role.....

But yeh bro i feel ya man it is hard without any experience and proper certificates under your belt, these days network engineers with CCNA are applying for level 2 help desk roles, so how are we gonna compete :):(

    • Yea - I mean I've seen my fuel pump which is decades old and uh, while I'm not saying this with real knowledge... but I sure get the ick at using anything in the fuel system that produced the state of that pump. Many years ago I went through multiple pumps (and strainers) before I dropped the tank to clean it out with extreme violence. I'm talking the car would do maybe 50km before coming to a halt, which resulted in me cleaning out the filter with some brake cleaner and going on my way. None of my stuff ever looked like what came out of your fuel tank. I don't think I'd be happy with it unless every single component was replaced (or at least checked/cleaned/confirmed to be clean here).
    • I'm not going to recommend an EBC pad. I don't like them. Just about anything else would suit me better. I've been using Intima pads for a while now.
    • Agreed, and in particular the earth strap that should go from the subframe to the chassis but it often broken or left off. There is a section in the R32 workshop manual you can follow for troubleshooting if you don't see anything suspicious, and depending where you are (there is no location on your user profile) you should be able to get your hands on a second hand replacement unit still if needed
    • Yeah they mention as a R34 for 2.5 Turbo...but then again thos "small" were also for R34 by that different site. But i look into it and that 310mm EBC is for R34 GTT. And by those you linked the specs are the same 🙂    EDIT: I found these on one site here: DBA 4000 series T3 DBA42304S They are 310mm...and it says are for R34GTT...are there good? EDIT2: ok they have pads too.  What "color" should i get for street use? I dont want/need some noisy ones...(and if they are not that dusty that is good too)
    • Yeah, shame. Maybe  driver's carpet is available 🙏. I am waiting for both amayama and nangun to confirm.
