Hey guys, a mate of mine is running an open day for students and fresh graduates at Microsoft. he asked me to spread the word and i know there's a number of guys on here that are in IT or still at uni.

Details below.

Hi guys - I know this is not a car related event but I know that there are lots of ppl on here that might be interested in attending the Microsoft Student day this Friday 22nd Aug 08.

Info for the event as follows:

What is this about?

The Microsoft Academy for College Hires is hosting a Student Day at Microsoft’s Australian HQ at 1 Epping Rd, North Ryde.

Who is organising this?

The Microsoft Academy for College Hires (MACH) is a group of recent graduates working at Microsoft and taking part in an accelerated career program. Note: This is not an assessment centre, job interview or selection process. You can leave your resumes at home.

So why are you doing this?

As recent graduates from a wide range of university disciplines ourselves, we know what it is like at this time of year. When we were at uni, we wished that we could take some time out during Study break to remind ourselves why we were studying so hard and what people would actually pay us for at the end of our degrees. Now we’re working in diverse roles in IT, Sales, HR, Finance, Marketing, Legal and Corporate Affairs

So it’s our chance to show you what it is like working for a technology company that measures it’s customers in hundreds of millions!

What will you get out of it?

• Chats with recent graduates working at Microsoft

• An understanding of where your degree might take you in the future

• A tour of the Microsoft Office (the building, not the software)

• Snacks and big screen Xbox gaming

Time and Place Date: Friday, August 22, 2008

Time: 1:30pm - 5:00pm

City/Town: North Ryde, Sydney, Australia

    • 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)  
    • 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.            
    • Awesome writeup and details. Thanks for sharing the story so far. I can relate to parts of it with my previous car and some of the issues I had to deal with.
    • Wow the colour matched hard top completely transforms the car. Are there any nice front lip options for the car or is that off the table?
    • Generally yes but for some reason I've been ruthless this time around!  I might even need to do another tip run after the way I've finally been able to hit the delete button on shit I've stepped over, stepped around and tripped over for the past 10 years!
