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.

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:

      DeAgostini 1/8 scale BNR32 Nissan Skyline GT-R Nismo

      By Rezz · Posted

      Starting with issues 1 - 5, we have already run into a problem...!  Issue #4 contained 2x front brake calipers, instead of 1 caliper and 1x steering knuckle. Will have to call DeAgostini on Monday to sort it out. Anyway here's some photos.  Issue #1 is the front bumper, headlights and number plate. Issue #2 is the front wheel (with "We produced with spartan air." text on the centre cap!) and tyre, the front lip spoiler and cylinder head cover with ignition coils under the centre cover... which will never be seen again. Issue #3 is the bonnet and cylinder head. Issue #4 is the front strut, brake disc (with laser etched metal discs) and brake caliper. I stopped here because of the issue with the missing steering knuckle.  Next update will be #5 - #10 in a few weeks.

      DeAgostini 1/8 scale BNR32 Nissan Skyline GT-R Nismo

      By Rezz · Posted

      DeAgostini is one of a few companies that release quite large (the largest commonly available size actually) 1/8 scale models in a series of weekly issues over 100 - 110 instalments.  They release different models for different markets and DeAgostini Japan have release the BNR32 Skyline GT-R Nismo last month. I've made two of these 1/8 scale sized cars (one an R35 GT-R from 2012 - 2014, the other I'm just about halfway through, a BNR34 Skyline GT-R from the 2Fast 2Furious movie) so when this R32 was announced there was no way I could ignore it as it's my favourite out of all Nissans.  Each issue costs around $20 so it costs about $2.2K when completed. I suppose it is very expensive for what it is, but the quality and details are really very good, and there are many "gimmicks" like fully functioning exterior and interior lights operated with a remote control, working steering, all doors/bonnet/boot/fuel lid open and close, the side mirrors fold in and it even has a speaker for the engine revving sounds when you turn the lights on.  Each issue comes with a magazine that tells the story of the BNR32 Skyline GT-R Nismo from the first design stages of the BNR32 to Group A homologation and the various racing version that were run in the Japanese Group A and JGTC, and Australian Group A.  So I plan to update the build in this thread 5 issues at a time.  https://deagostini.jp/r32/?srsltid=AfmBOooKjxDc4EUK2rmXqMBPgyHfFJ24s4oEPJBNpnF-lFlsRoW0PE6P

      Help Understand GTT Boost Setup

      By joshuaho96 · Posted

      This would be a new pump with new gears. I'm just unclear on whether it's a good idea to run more oil pump flow if you don't actually need said flow. Oil level is set a minute or so after shutting off a warm engine so wouldn't the high RPM oil level in the sump end up lower all things equal? Plan is OEM clearances, main concern in my mind is whether the OEM pump can keep up with the flow requirements of any additional oil coolers.
