Is this still for sale?

Need the following R32 GT-R parts. Cluster Surround Steering Column Surround Air Box Boost Control Solenoid Washer Bottle Thanks, -Patrick

Do you still have the standard parts? ECU, springs, exhaust etc. -Patrick

My gut feelings would be 1. Fried video card 2. Fried motherboard 3. Fried ram 4. Dodgy power supply. What brand/model are you running?

so.. 2 light bulbs, say 55W each = 110W. say you do 20000km per year, at an average speed of 45km/h.. say you drive during the day 70% of the time.. 20000 / 45 = 444 driving hours/year 444 * 0.70 = 311 day time driving hours/year 311 * 110 = 34KWh day time lighting energy/year 1 litre of fuel ~ 16KWh of chemical energy assume 25% efficiency for a combustion engine, and 70% for an alternator, which means 16 * 0.25 * 0.70 = 2.8KWh of energy from 1 litre of fuel 34 / 2.8 = 12 litres of fuel per year for lighting during the day!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! That's $18!!!!!! And we haven't even considered the cost of changing light bulbs!!! What about the effect on the environment!!! shame on you!

doesn't matter what car.. if you drive with your f#@cking lights on during the day (yes, you butt sniffing commodore drivers) you are MAX GHEY HARTCORE!

What exactly are these new laws??

nerds

Still looking!

Updated - also need intercooler brackets.

WTB: R32 GTR Factory Blow off valve pipes - i.e. from the output side of the blow off valves all the way to the turbo inlet pipes. I don't need the crossover pipe (the one that runs behind the intercooler) but am willing to buy one if someone has the whole lot and can't separate. Also need factory intercooler brackets. Thanks, -Patrick

I agree, good work on the speaker Troy. I might start coming to some more meetings again!

yeah, right.. Eltham TMU is full of the biggest bunch of rude arseholes i have ever met. Took my license away and defected me while driving my little runabout car, i'm trying to do the right thing and not drive my "powerful and dangerous" car every day, and still get screwed.

is the cross-over pipe (runs under the radiator support, behind the intercooler) still there? -Patrick

you know, it's sad when it takes you almost 10 months to find your own birthday thread eh.. well almost in time for the next one Thanks guys (and girl) -Patrick

you need to take the cam belt off.. in order: 1. rad fan 2. radiator 3. fan belts 4. crank pulley 5. cam covers 6. cam belt tensioner (you can get away with just pulling it back) 7. cam belt 8. water pump reinstall in reverse order.. (i hope i haven't forgotten anything) cheers, -Patrick

You're just jealous coz i'm not sucking yours -Patrick P.S. The MoTeC guys are pretty cool, I think things are going to work out pretty well here. Lots of stuff to do though!

Well, the time is almost here. Last day at my current job today. Off to MoTeC on Monday I'll let you guys know what it's like! -Patrick

Yep, I already had an interview before I saw your thread.. Thanks Bec -Patrick

mmm.. It's definitely beer time, last day of bloody sinus medication today, bring on the weekend! As far as the $ is concerned, it's competitive with the rest of the market, this rate is for a 6 month trial contract. I think there's a possible re-negotiation at the end of that. -Patrick

Yeah that thing was easy, felt like I was back at uni again.. they did a few nasty things though, for example Class c { public: c(int x, int y) : mx(x), my(x) {} private: int mx; int my; }; (both 'mx' and 'my' are initialised with the constructor parameter 'x', 'y' is unused) Once they got onto asking me about design patterns things got a bit more interesting

Yeah, after three interviews I got a letter of offer today, starting there on the 31st of this month. The gtr is in for some tough times now i think Best of luck with other jobs Justin, apparently they had between 50 and 100 applicants for this position. Honestly i'm surprised i got the offer. -Patrick

mmm, I think even group buy would be $$$...

I know exactly what you mean.. It's always bloody hard isn't it, I hate to sound desperate. As far as being over current jobs.. you're telling me! -Patrick

Hey Justin have you heard from them yet?
