Weird. Showed 27500 on work comp. Now 24499...lameaids.

I am guessing Col, as a moderator, deleted someone's earlier post, bumping himself to 27500

Morning Mangs.

Scarnon?

So, who's up for tavern night, and when?

Finished work yay. Days off yay. I'm in for the tavern night just not this weekend.

Morning all.... work's bullshit as usual.

Trying to sell my bloody 400r front bar & a 4inch autotechnica exhaust cannon if anyone's keen

Apologies in advance for the rants...

Rant 1:

F*CK customs! Finally got the bill back today, have to pay $157 for being $70 over the limit :). Meh, thats life, I was expecting to have to pay more. Payment options? Go to customs, or pay by credit card. Of course paying by credit card will incur additional surchages. So down to customs I go (it's at the airport so only 10 minutes from work anyway).

Me: I want to pay for this *hands over bill*

Them: Yeah no problem. Oh, you won't be able to take your parcel though.

Me: Why not?

Them: Well, we have to release it to australia post. Then they will deliver it to you.

Me: Deliver it to me? I'm right here.

Them: Yes, but we will release it to australia post, then they will deliver it to you in the mail.

Me: I'm right here. It's right here in this building somewhere. Surely it is cheaper and easier for everyone for you to just release it to me instead of australia post.

Them: I'm sorry sir, we can't do that.

Me: F*cks sake. Fine, let me pay...

*Pays customs*

Now I have to wait for aus post to f*cking deliver the shit. AND they will probably want to charge me for storage now since customs has taken so long to do the paperwork... May or may not get my shit by the weekend.

F*ckers

Rant 2:

Why the f*ck can't people walk and talk at the same time? Really, it's not that hard. F*cking groups of herpa derpas walking along blocking the whole corridor, and walking at a snails pace. FFS, I don't care if you want to talk, but walk at a reasonable f*cking speed.

*Disclaimer: This may only have annoyed me so much because I am already pissed off at customs...

Rant 1 is just retarded. Bureacracy at its finest. Rant 2, meh it kind of annoys me.

Had stupid amounts of drama this morning when the joinery guys didnt deliver the bench for the carpark attendant bay. The problem is the installer is a subcontractor of a subcontractor. So I have to chase up the first subbie. Turns out they haven't heard of it before. So then I have to go through the design team and contract admin people on our side. Mixed response with nobody really knowing what's going on. After all it's only a f**king benchtop. Turns out it was never included in anyones scope of works so now we have a 6 week wait. For a f**king benchtop. I won't be waiting 6 weeks though I'm finding someone else to do it lol.

Allo Mangs.

Also working Wednesday... also see Doc Martins post re: working everywednesday... :D

What a bastard of a week so far.... But, it will be over on Thrusday. Only 2 more days until I slide around in a WRX rally car :down::P

P.S. Wont be there on Thursday night......again. Have family arriving from Melb on Thursday.

    • Thanks for that Paul.  Do you think if I posted a picture you'd be able to remember where it went? 
    • Sorry Duncan, I didn't get a notification for the replies.  Thanks for responding!  It's a full Android device, but does allow you to use CarPlay/AA as well.  This is the one I bought from NaviRS on AliExpress: https://www.aliexpress.com/item/1005006368602668.html?spm=a2g0o.order_list.order_list_main.111.59aa1802JDzQ0E - the 2K 8G-256G CAM variant but it seems to have gone up by £170 since I bought it!  My purchase was £307.14.   It's not the fastest thing in the world but performs perfectly adequately.  It stays on standby unless I disconnect the battery and let it power down, then it's just a fairly standard Android bootup time from cold.  The DSP Equaliser is very nice and made the standard stereo system sound pretty decent compared to the stock screen.  Perhaps I can take a video of it when I get a sec. It *allegedly* supports the reverse camera, but I'm yet to get that working.  It has options for reverse cam (a camera unit can be bought separately) or 360 cameras (also bought separately).  To be fair it doesn't seem to detect that the shifter was put into reverse but I'm working on a theory about this as well.  At the moment I'm going without which is a bit annoying considering the car is an absolute canal barge but so far I haven't caused any damage I'll grab a picture of the wire I'm missing later today when I can get outside.  My theory, by the by, is that not only is the head unit different, but the CANBUS network has different signals for the different years.  I think this because I have a spare AC panel from a newer Infiniti G37 (as opposed to my Nissan panel) which wouldn't control anything except the volume when I had it wired up with the stock system.  I'm going to throw it back in and see if the screen will respond to it.  I've just ordered an arduino CANBUS module so I can have a look at the signals going around the car and see if I can spot anything.  I'm thinking if I can work out what it's expecting vs what it's getting I might be able to translate and relay the signal back but so far just a theory anyway. I also found this on my travels, so far the only one that specifically matches my car: https://www.aliexpress.com/item/1005002822934280.html?spm=a2g0s.imconversation.0.0.33433e5fgttovi If you look at the picture of the before, it has the card reader slot, and the picture of the head unit is exactly the same as the one pictured in my original post.  I asked if they sell the cables separately but sadly they won't.  I didn't want to just buy this one because it's a super old Android version and only dual core - likely slow as hell. 
    • As above, you did refill the coolant and burp the system before running it again didn't you?
    • To be fair - you see the same thing for every clutch. There's always someone making an installation error.
    • Just saw this, redacted names. It's on a R33 GTS-t Facebook group. Looks like still teething issues.
