surveyor, any1 need their block surveyed under the table? :P

actually I wouldn't mind finding my fence lines, and key levels :D

Can't imagine it would be fun to do a 1300spm sloping block though.

which 1 i contract for them some times

Ringwood

Whereabouts in the organisation are you?

Just doing warehousing stuff. Picking & packing, loading containers and forklift driving.

$32 an hour plus you get all your overtime and stuff. Want to get out of there soon and finish off my plumbing apprenticeship but it's that damn pay that's keeping me there atm. They are opening a new warehouse in dandenong which won't be Cadbury run, most likely Toll or Linfox. Pay rate will prob drop to $18 an hour with those guys so i think i'll get out there when that happens

A couple of the guys that I used to work with run the IT dept. out at Ringwood, so I was wondering if you worked with them (most guys on here seem to be in IT in someway)

Do you have to have your car checked everytime you leave the place as well?

That happens at Schweppes in Tullamarine. The company I work for is contracted to do a bit of electrical work there.

It's funny though, all depends which security guard you get at the gate. Some just glance in the back of the van, while others will want to see inside your toolbox :cool:

Nope, we don't actually drive down... a few managers have reserved spots down there. The rest of us park in a carpark up the top of the hill and have to make the 8min walk up and down everyday :cool:

      NC MX5

      Damn it, I was at work last night, and stayed in a room there during the storm with the car outside, but undercover, I just went downstairs and well....there was a large steel locker that has come from some place last night, it wasn't anywhere I could see yesterday, and yeap, it landed on the fraking car....of course it did..... LOL So, I'll need to take it back for paint and panel, luckily it was only the boot that took the hit, so it could have been worse Serves me right for staying at work and getting on the cans with some of the boys

      Yeah, really happy with how it all turned out As for aftermarket lip, nah, I'm not really a fan for practically reasons on a street car that gets driven everywhere  I did have the full lower kit on my 2015 STI, but found the front lip scrapped alot, even at stock 4x4ish ride height As the NC sits now, with the lowest point of the car at 110mm, so just legal, some steep driveways and steep speed humps will still "just" scrap those little plastic OEM air dam thingies on the undertray just before the front wheels

      Hypergear Turbochargers and High flow Services Development thread

      Here's one I help build and tuned a decade ago, Garrett  GTX3071R Gen 1, T3 twin scroll 0.83 rear housing. Went from larger 272 cams down to smaller Tomei Poncams to help with the low end. S13 non VCT motor. Car was purpose built for the track, hence low down was the focus. Note the actual dyno chart shows lower boost, however the EBC and boost gauge showed 1.9Bar (Ignore the torque, I was young and didn't know how to set derived torque)

      Hypergear Turbochargers and High flow Services Development thread

      I’m doing some side developments on SR20det S13 engines, its one my hobby cars used it to compare flow capacity of some smaller size wheels. SR20det is one of another JDM legendary engines I'm sure there are plenty of SR enthusiasts on this forum, I will share results some common turbo configurations here. a quick run down of what the car is: Wide body 180sx Type X with black top engine (blue). It has: Stock bottom end Haltech 1500 ECU 5-0 motorsports trigger kit Kelford SR20DET Beehive Spring with Titanium Retainers Kelford Cams SR20DET S13 188-B 268/272 Cams G25-660 Turbocharger in T2 .64 rear housing internally gated ARP Head studs MLS head gasket 1000CC ID injectors Walbro 450L Fuel pump Front mount cooler kit JJR’s 3 inches turbo back exhaust (its too short for the 180sx it had to be extended) Pump 98 fuel Hub Dyno tune So far made 270rwkws at 22psi full boost by 4500RPM. Engine is very knock limited hence a pretty bad looking top end. From previous experiences it seems like SR20dets are happier with bigger size turbine, some thing like a GT30 would make way better top end, but on same time response is lost. It won't be a problem with S15 VCT engines. I'll be testing alternative turbine housing, turbine wheel and possibly dump pipe options for extra flow to resolve the problem and of course E85 would resolve all the issues.
