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..

Im kinda in the same shoes as you champ.....

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 :):(

good luck bro hope you pass your test and find a good job

    • I hadn't thought about the variable power steering assist. Presumably, it will always be the same level of assist as you get in an S14. The R32/3/4 are either helliishly heavy (at low speeds) if the solenoid is not powered at all, or hellishly too light (at high speed) if it is powered all the time. I presume that it is PWM controlled on those cars. I hadn't thought about the S cars not having variable assist. ugh. What crappy plebby cars they must be!  
    • Hmm yeah that is a good point. It looks like it'll just bolt in with no real issue besides maybe the bushings being different. My other concern was that 2 pin plug that I assume is used in some way to control the rack solenoid depending on the speed signal from the ecu. The DMAX rack doesn't even have that plug though so, don't think it'll matter. Might just order the rack and see how it goes. Will update this when I figure something out
    • I'd say it's a fair bet that the feed and return fluid lines will be in different enough spots that you would need to come up with a way to cut the originals short and adapt with new hard line adaption or braided teflon hoses or somesuch. But really, you have the car, you have the photos of the DMAX rack - you should be able to go out there and see for yourself whether they're in the same or different spots.
    • I've been doing some looking around and honestly was just considering throwing a new rack at it. I saw that the dmax silvia rack bolts up into the 33 with the silvia bushings but not sure if the high pressure lines will sit in the correct spot. I believe other version of the 33 rack are the same/similar to the racks that can be opened up without as much fuss so I assume the dmax rack would fit but any ideas?
    • I've never played with one, but I would expect that you are correct. That slot looks like it is intended to be used to unscrew the end, and the flats on the body would be better than grabbing it around the round bit with a pipe wrench. So, yeah, probably unscrews. You'll probably have to make a tool to drive in that slot.
