Middlemount if you know where that is. About 2hrs from Emerald up north towards Mackay.

Those 57d are the perfect drifter rims imo. Cheap and good + you get all the attention you need with the colours they offer. Hahaha.

Yes. Not all Gramlight but the specific design I'm suggesting. The 57d were quoted by Streeter

Comparing to

These would be a lot cheaper with the current exchange rate sitting around 85?

Brandon:

Wheels of choice for your car would be Gold Gramlight 57Pro, Gold GTC or White LMGT's

Don't forget that you will pay around 20% more when you go to pick it up from the docks in custom duties and GST.

Also, even if the rate on xe.com says 85yen, the rate the bank will be paying is only going to be 82yen and you have to minus 2 yen on his side also. So if xe.com says 85yen then expect to be paying at approx 80yen and $1800 will actually cost you an extra $360 to pick up when it lands

I wanna know the design part of things rather than operational for starters. And I'll need the commission experience if I wanna go down the path I'm planning.

What have they got up there that they are working on? Power plant or something?

Nah too expensive for drifter rims. Better off buying second hand since you're just gunna wreck them anyway. imo anyway.

You should ask streeter if he can send each wheel via EMS one at a time. You will pay a tiny bit more but avoid custom duties

Now you're on the trolley ;)

In other news. Who is going to the SAU Qld Christmas dinner? I reckon I'll put off paying my fine till the 14th and make an appearance :)

Yea I know that. That quote I got was long ago before I bought these LMGT4. I wouldnt have having those hideous coloured rims on my car thats for sure. But if I'm having a drift car say 180? I'll get them.

There are engineers on site that sit in offices all day designing/planning new u/g and open pit shiz.

Will I assume your talking about wanting to be involved with the civil design stages of the sites ? eg. processing plants and other structural aspects ?

I'm an electrical/controls engineer bro. I'll really just be doing the maintenance stuff if I'm onsite. Its normally the process boys that decide what to upgrade etc and from there the other discipline will get the work done.

Thats a bloody good question! Yes Dan, what do you do in the mines???? Must be a desk job since you have a whole lot of whoring time!

I already told you , Im a giver . . . . Oh wait do mean my job ? lol

Im a surveyor ;)

Is it standard surveyor stuff while the mines are under construction or is the place your working at operational?

Maintenance = suicide. I wouldn't be able to do that anywhere especially if I was going to be stuck in the middle of bumf**k nowhere.

Geeezzzz that post was a bit slow since the question is answered ....

Yep fail.

Colin, dont be upset that we get paid lots to do pretty much nothing except write reports that ever so slightly change the project...yet every one has to wait for them because of silly environmental legislation haha

      Stock rb25det neo questions

      By joshuaho96 · Posted

      I mean yes, if you're starting from scratch on an unknown engine yes you don't need to be doing all kinds of math in the background but if you're doing relatively minor changes like AFM + injectors + boost up with some aftermarket turbos it takes quite a bit of math if you want to do something like maintain OEM fuel + timing tables but compressed and then a bit more load scale up top. I think I've spent too much time working on big engineering nightmares though so I'm a big fan of trying to constrain the scope of whatever work I'm doing as much as possible and trying to get it right before moving on. For example, a local owner just did the usual E85 + single turbo conversion to his R32 GTR and nearly burned his car to the ground doing some spirited driving up the local mountains. Turbine is unshielded and too close to the hood insulation. It's tough to balance "just get the project done" and "seemingly small details can cause massive setbacks I'm not willing to deal with".

      Neil's R33 Gts-t Build

      By soviet_merlin · Posted

      No idea about Neil's steering wheel, but I have the same behaviour in the Stagea. I doubt it has ever been messed with so might be normal. Indicating to turn right at a roundabout and correcting even a little bit to the left to go around will cancel the indicator. Never considered it an issue other than it being a bit odd.

      Neil's R33 Gts-t Build

      By silviaz · Posted

      Does anyone know if this is off centered? Looks like it, when I indicate to go right, but turn my steering wheel slightly left it cancels (was always like that even before I started messing around with it) was wondering if anyone else has the same issue?

      By Duncan · Posted

      Nothing photo worthy since last update, lots of little plumbing bits for the AAC/Cold start valves, and unfortunately I still need another couple of parts for the brake booster line and the AAC into the plenum. Otherwise it all looks good to start up engine wise, onto checking the electrics/interior
