You work in Broome ? Man that would be a killer drive from ipswich

I thought Isola was saying you were working in Broome. Anyway lol

No fuel = no driving of the gtr.

Foot falcon ? :ninja:

Nah mate John doesn't work in Broome neither.

Well normally this is the case.

But I lost my job the other week (dam probabationary periods of 6 months, even though I was an apprentice for 4 years before hand :ninja: gotta admit, laughing at the boss when he sacked me and watching his face get really red and the look that he wanted to punch me was good enough reason to loose my job. lol Well thats what you get when you got it in for someone).

So no job = no money coming in and a fark load going out lol. No money coming in = no money to spare for fuel for the gtr. No fuel = no driving of the gtr. No driving of the gtr = me very pissed off :) . Friends pay for fuel for me to drive around to cruise spots, etc = me happy :D . And I don't wanna screw that up lol. Gotta do what you gotta do :dry:

I'm an unemployed bum. I pay for my fuel. My car, my rules.

Yeah mang that must suck. My GTR hasnt been driven in 6 months and is not likely to see the road again before 2011 lol :ninja: Then again I shouldn't complain atleast mine runs unlike most GTRs that inhabit the random sheds around qld lol.

lol @ all of the above

So what your saying is we as taxpayers pay for his fuel ?

WTF is a fyp ?

I just wouldn't take my car out if my mates didn't offer to pay for some of the fuel as I don't have the money to pay for it at the moment.

Its not that I spung off them, but when I had a job I would pay for all the fuel every time we were out, shouted them god knows how many drinks, entry to places, etc and they are just saying that they are paying me back.

Even though this is the case, I still feel guilty for taking the money and so I let them decide where to go and what to do.

They are great mates and I don't wanna be out of work for a long time.

Hoping to have something within the next couple of weeks. So for the time been once a week they shout me fuel to take the car out because they enjoy been in it as much as I do and they don't have a car or licence of there own. So its a win for them to. Otherwise they don't get out much because of that either.

you bite way too easily :ninja:

Are you like a boiler maker or a mechanic is that why you want to get into the mines ?

Yeah but you get your slice of everyones tax to pay for that :ninja: . He wouldn't be able to get the dole yet would he?

Well I can't get the dole for another 2 weeks. Really don't wanna go on the dole so trying to save as much money as possible at the moment hense no cruises like I use to do. I hate relying on people to get my ass around and to do stuff. But as I said my mates said that they are happy to because when they had no money I was the one who would get them out of the house and help them out.

Ha ha ha I wasn't biting. Just saying why I don't pay for my fuel at the moment. lol

Yeah I'm a diesel fitter (truck/earth moving/gensets/boat/etc mechanic for those who don't know.) Pretty much big engines I play with.

Yes that is exactly what I'm saying :) fyp = fixed your post

What do you do for work? What apprenticeship have you just finished? And how far are you willing to travel lol

Yeah but you get your slice of everyones tax to pay for that :ninja:.

My bank account, my money.

And seeing as how I've never asked you for a cent for the past 6 months, it's not like it's really affecting you greatly is it?

I just finished as an automotive specialist - specialising in diesel fitting. (automotive specialist because i pretty much did truck engines and automatic transmissions for them)

Willing to travel around Brissy but probably not to the north side. Other than that I fly in fly out roster in the mines at the moment is what I'm looking at.

Ahwell too easy. If it was any other apprenticeship (sparky, plumber, chippy etc) I might of bin able to help out but we don't do much with diesal engines lol

That's because you're not trying hard enough. Put it in the suggestion box tomorrow and see what happens.

I'm a Cadet/Site Engineer for Multiplex. Shit kicker basically but I know a lot of the bosses/project managers for all the subbies round the coast.

We have a massive twin turbo diesal generator in the basement. I'll take pics of it when I get my camera back. :ninja:

    • Middle seat good for a slab of beer or Esky for a road trip. 2x kids, means 1x free seat lol.
    • So we have most the interior back in, and for the first time with one OEM speaker hooked up. The 31 is running, driving and now tunes!!! Hahaha yet another step for the sub that sat 10m under for two weeks!!! unbelievable really 👌 lots of love work and not giving up on her. Seen so many youngsters part way less, and in way better condition. I’m stubborn, thinking another problem is just a hurdle to overcome, One at a time. IMG_9277.mov
    • That is correct. I'm using a modified ABS ring and a ZF speed sensor on my rear diff for speed input. I'm running a Haltech ecu. 
    • Been busy with the newborn. We originally thought we were going to go for a third, but we're good with two lol. He's starting to actually sleep now so I've had some energy to work on the car. It's been parked away in the garage since late November due to winter.  I went ahead and redid all my head oil drains. I originally had my front and rear head drain going into the same pipe but have since split them up. I also added an Ethanol content sensor to get ready to run E85 this summer. Tossed it on my return line. Sensor sits nicely under my intake manifold.    I also have a lot of parts that came in for my rear end. I'll be swapping over to a 3.3 final drive and doing the GK teck anti squat mod. While the rear subframe is off, I'll also change every bushing. We're planning on buying another house soon with the condition that I get at a minimum a 2 door garage, so I'll wait to have more room for this. Now onto the strange things that recently happened... After changing the lower rad hose (It had been sitting in my cabinet for well over a year and was the last hose I had to replace), I let the car idle in the garage to bleed my coolant. After running for a few minutes, it started missing. Got much worst within a minute or two and then stalled and would not restart. My crank sensor decided to crap itself. No damage, no explanation, just died. I went ahead and replaced it with another ZF sensor but the heavier duty stainless model with a shield. Tossed that in and started right up. Has anyone else seen this? I hate when things fail without cause. Luckily this was a blessing in disguise... This lead me to recheck my timing. It seems I may have had a beer or two the last time I had set my TDC angle as I was off exactly 5 degrees... I miscounted a line haha. I was running 5 degrees less then commanded. It's a little embarrassing but helps explain why my dyno operator seemed to think I should be making more then 478rwkws.
