There are way to many people in IT and alot of em dont know shit either!

Going for the big bux job hey?

Amen to that, I work in IT for a hardwaresoftware sales and support company and I tell you what I could have half of the jobs of our clients in-house IT co-ordinators, they are dumb as dog sh*t. It is far to crowded now.

Thats because of those computer power training courses that tries to teach people who have never seen a computer before to be tech's in a few months and them get them a job when they really dont know what they are doing.

And then on the other hand you get the computer geeks that do a 2 year tafe course with a fancy name which teaches you basic stuff and then they get jobs trying to sort out problems they wouldnt have a clue about.

lol funny thing is, most techies in india are attending or have attended MIT, which amongst other things is ranked number 2 in the world for IT degrees, and number 1 outside the US. If any of them were to come over here to work, they would not only know more than us, they'd also be much more highly qualified than most of the managers running around in the IT industry.

But, by the same token due to oversaturation, there is no room for them to come over here, and thus they work in india in callcenters...

Theres are about 5 Indian PLC programmers working at the building joining ours on the new PLC Holden Engine plant in Adelaide. Its a sub division of my company.

I was getting a coffee in the lunch room and started talking to one of the guys and he asked me how long i have been in aus, i said 20 years. So i asked him the same question and he said 1.5 weeks, of which 1 week he was working!!

They may know their IT stuff but know farkall about geography of australia :P

      Compatible rear drive shafts R34 N/A?

      By GTSBoy · Posted

      They should do. I have S14 (or something S chassis, anyway) driveshafts in my R32 (because my diff flanges have 3x2). They're the right length. When you go looking for R32/3/4 driveshafts (for turbos), they're all the same thing, so are the same length. So there really shouldn't be any reason why those cheapies from JJ won't also fit an R34. R32/3 NA should also be the same thing. The (3x the price) D-Max ones are uni-fit. They have 5x1 and 3x2 bolt holes and say they cover all the cars. So that would also suggest that they are all the same except for the flanges. And in that case, the flange goes both ways. I'd be buying the D-Max ones if I ever have to replace a shaft. Because that will open up diff options without needing to juggle shafts also. Juggling shafts is gay.

      GReddy Injector Help!

      By ChoppedSpots · Posted

      Yeah with the adaptors they do look like the photo above - just the fitment within the plenum itself and then further with the rail to the intake is questionable - we shall see tomorrow hopefully once I get some replies from Aeroflow, maybe those bosses are the missing piece....

      GReddy Injector Help!

      By Dose Pipe Sutututu · Posted

      Should be fine, if you have it sitting too far in, you end up just spraying the walls and have shit idle. You "can" run them like that, however I don't think it's a great idea (also depends on your plenum, might be good to just get the injector bosses first, mock it up and see if you need to get the bottom extension) Ideally your injectors, with the extension should look like this  (Not my photos, just Google)

      GReddy Injector Help!

      By ChoppedSpots · Posted

      Thanks for the replies guys, it's really appreciated.  It seems the kit was supposed to come with those injector bosses but hasn't. Unsure if they'll help as even with the adaptors to make them a 3/4 height injector they still sit too far out so mount the fuel rail?
