anything to do with domestic....pretty much...but if the job is to big then i sorta dont wanna touch it as i cant really do the job all week...i gotta still do my apprentiship:P

Of course you know and have been told by your staff at trade school that if you are caught doing any UNLICENSED plumbing by the P.I.C., your apprenticeship will immediately be terminated.

as Reece's motto goes 'Dont risk it, Use a Licensed Plumber'.

Im a third year and wouldnt risk my years of crappy pay only to have it all thrown away for nothing.

Its ok if your boss signs a cert of compliance dude, but im pretty sure any job over $500 (incld materials) must have a cert of compliance. also any jobs regarding sewer, gas or roofing regardless of their $$ value MUSt have a Certificate of compliance. Ask your boss nicely and im sure he will sign you off mate :yes:

would just hate to see a skyline driver lose his apprenticeship. i drive 2 skylines and believe me 90% of my wage goes towards them. servicing, rego, insurance etc.

....but im pretty sure any job over $500 (incld materials) must have a cert of compliance. also any jobs regarding sewer, gas or roofing regardless of their $$ value MUSt have a Certificate of compliance.

Yes you are correct.

And for the record i'm a Fully qualified Plumber, and i've seen first hand what the PIC can and will do....their something thats best not to mess with. :nyaanyaa:

I'm a fully qualified Electrician and I get the exact same thing. I'm forever having people ask me to do some odd jobs around their house, but for the risk of my license, it's simply not worth it.

Plus, I do enough electrical work during work hours, I don't want to waste my weekend doing it too :nyaanyaa:

    • I am using Motec M150.  I am not working on the car myself actually.  My workshop is giving all these info, they are quite reputable in the industry and are very familiar with Motec and RBs and have done a few big setups with VCam and single turbo on RBs.  In fact, they built and tuned my engine from day one.  But they are stumped with my engine at the moment and cannot work out how come the compression is so low with the VCam. They told me that they have now swapped in some Kelford cams (without the VCam) and can achieve around 130psi compression and the low end torque is better, but now the engine is doughy as.  It boosts and peaks at more than 1000rpm slower, with twin HKS GTIII RS, it doesn't get full boost until over 5000rpm. I have always thought the VCam was a bit disappointing at the low rpm. To a point I had to ride the clutch a fair bit to get up a small hill from stand still.  That was when I had a clutch.  Now changing to a 8HP, I don't have that luxury and this problem has become a major issue. I am beginning to think the VCam never work since the day it was installed.  Maybe it was just sitting at the most advanced point, that is why it went good at top end but very ordinary at the bottom.  Therefore, with the help of the Holinger 6 speed and paddle shift, as long as it was moving, it drove pretty good.
    • yeah, there's a country that recently started importing Skylines, I blame them.
    • I don't have a printer, but could at least attempt to make a printable model.
    • If you do make them, im sure you would have a number of buyers.. Every GTR I've been in have rattly door windows
