Hi guys, sorry to pester you but i have posted a small note in the wasteland section regarding my plans to move to australia and seeing as it looks like i will be staying at a pad owned by my partners in-laws, i thought i wuld drop you all a note in the area. Not a sponger, just til i find my feet then move into my own place with the better half.

I am looking for contacts in the comms world or any agencies you could suggest. I currently work for Shell IT on the oil rigs and gas plants in Scotland looking after all aspects of comms from data/voice to marine radio, LOS and at comms along with PA systems etc. I have also built a radio and tv station in Bosnia when i was serving with the Royal signals.

Dont expect anyone here to offer me a job however if anyone has any info regarding contacts etc i would be most appreciative. Christ, i will even pull cables just to get my foot in the oor or work in an IT support dept or something!! :(

Thanking you in advance for any help plus hopefully meet up with some of you in the not too distant future as i wont be taking the cr with me..........but will certainly buy in Australia if everything goes to plan :D :D

it jobs are somewhat hard to get hold of in aus i believe

seems everyone goes through school and uni wanting to work in IT and then theres too many people for the number of jobs,

ur experience would help you greatly id say.

ill get the links and post em in here when i find em, they are writtin down round here somewhere.

any help appreciated. As i said, i really dont want to work on the `IT` side and would prefer hands on telecomms in a maintenance or installation role.

No, not taking the 32, its just not financially feasable or possible, hoping to pick up a new car once i`m setled.

Yes, not interested in programming.

Installs, commisioning , maintenance, anything to get my hands dirty although i can configure routers,mux and PABX. Beggers cant be choosers i know but no point in being stuck in an office as netwrok tech when i would have no intensions of staying , if you know what i mean.

Will speak with the missus and get back to you. What have you in mind, a project you are involved with or something?? Cat5 /fibre , no problem .etc etc.

    • Hey guys. I have a 400R on its way to Australia from Japan currently and have a few questions I’m hoping others may be able to help with.   Wondering if anyone here has had any luck getting the Sat nav unit to work in Australia!? Assuming the Stereo is as simple as a band expanded and tv won’t work?  Seeing as they’re based off a Q50 which is Aus delivered is there any way to link that system to the nav? Nav modules and head unit are different part numbers and appear slightly different at the rear with plug ins etc. can I put my xtrail sd card into the rv37 and will that convert the maps or update to Australian? Has anyone got any advice here?     also has anyone fitted the factory remote start and Security system once it’s landed in Australia? I put an enquirey to Nissan Japan in via a third party, and they suggested it needs a Nissan Japan dealers device to setup and couldn’t guarantee if one here could do it or not. They can supply and I can physically fit it but to setup I would need a dealers device. Any information here would be appreciated also. I’ve seen one here with it fitted already prior to leaving Japan at a dealer/inporter, so clearly passes compliance and works when fitted Japan and doesn’t need changing here.      also, does the tyre inflation sensors work here? Does anything change with them when the vehicle arrives? Where are they actually situated? I’ve read they have batteries and they need to changing at times and seems like resetting involves the nav system?    any help here would be appreciated and any other aust specific information to help would be great. Looking forward to see what the current generation skyline is like and eager to see how many of the gadgets can be utilised here.  Thanks in advance 
    • Do need to take it with a pinch of salt. One of the adapter failures, they clearly had setup issues with the flywheel.  One of the slipping ones I spoke to and it was pretty clear the throwout was riding, rather than fix, just swapped to a new clutch.    These clutches are being put in anything from 5k offroad 4x4 beaters, GR yaris, 500hp commodores to 1200hp barra monsters. Bound to be some issues in some of them when they are not a simple bolt in affair due to the changes in height.    There is a lot going on in this picture and unless I did the job myself no way to tell what really happened. 
    • I did this mod in 2019  You just have to modify the top bracket of the ABS/TC/Fuel Pump Control ECU so it sits more upright and closer to the back seat and run a good quality positive battery lead from the engine bay, the negative lead i just bolted down to the body in the boot.
    • Damn... Not the feedback I want to hear.
    • Twas your car many moons ago that gave me the idea!
