Hey guys i am currently looking to do an apprenticeship with a high performance mechanic, something that is already in the field of modifications. I'm just trying to get a better start for myself, i have spoken to various people (service and parts managers at ford, holden etc) they said that if i start an apprenticeship off with those companies im locked in for 4 years wheather i like it or not.

So if there is any vacencies with any mechanics that do deal with modifications (v8, rotary, turbocharger) please let me kno by either contacting me or sending me a pm.

Thanks heaps, Phillip Nikoloski

i remember being an apprentice panel beater... decided to do it unofficially cause theres nothing better for learning then ultimate hands on.

was on slightly better than apprentioce wages but never got any certificates.... not that i cared cause i wasnt doing it for a career... was doing it so i knew the trade.

    • UPDATE: Yes the GSP Axles are compatible. I installed it on my R34 today and they are working a treat! Turns out that the S13, S14, S15, and 200 SX all used the same axles as the HR34, and ER34 NA models. Which is 2 bolt x 3 pairs.  
    • Also build this EH ute with 370z motor and gearbox with a couple of turbos just for fun.  
    • Got the passenger door on plus the master cylinder and booster. Loaded up to take it home. At home, the colour changes a lot in the light.
    • Nothing cheap, but I have seen the AC Hydraulic DK13HLQ which is pretty close to what you're asking for. The problem is the hydraulic cylinder mandates that the back of the jack be a certain height and Skylines have fairly deep inset floor jack points. A more certain and cheap option is to get some nominal 2x10 inch lumber boards and have one board be 1.5 feet, the other board 3 feet. Glue it all together with lots of clamps to maintain pressure. Make two of these. The ramp suggested above is a good idea, it takes quite a bit of clutch slip to get over each of the boards. I only need the first ~1.5 inches for my low profile jack on a standard ride height car but a lowered car you want to go up to the full ~3-3.5 inches. Paint it or store indoors if you want it to last.
    • Ok. And Nistune? I read (here too) mainly on Stagea threads that it can by "turn off" with Nistune. But they say they still had the sensor plug in. Next week iam going to the Nistune(and other ECUs) tuner so i can finally make it work. I drove the car home and apart from the cut it drove great. No misfire no smoke no hesitation or rough start...so hoping it is this sensor that is missing
