4k manual TT will be a piece of shit IMO. Been a while since I looked at zeds but the manual TT always held their value pretty well; I'd be shelling out ~10k for a decent one.

[UNR33L]

Dunno still as large as ever ere

Taking roids atm?

[HEKT1K]

As for the pay side of it, a 3rd year apprentice on an EBA job makes more than a domestic A grade, so unless you own the business or you're doing work on the side, there's no comparison in the pays.

My mate is 3rd year and on $40 an hour....

Reminds me of Ruffels... mother f**ker is rolling in it

Where's he working? Big company or got his own business?

Seems to have a few cars/bikes/boats...

[UNR33L]

Pretty cool rims / mods on the old mustang

Mo, why not go that colour combo ?

[blah_blah]

Yeh I did start about a month or so ago, don't get me wrong I'm definately seeing results just want that little bit more, I guess I gotta work that little bit harder and eat that little bit better / more. Guess there is no tricks for speed other than that or roids as Alex said but then you get shrinkage amirite?

Just eat lots and work out really.

Or drink lots of milk if you can't stomach the food.

He's with an agency (Frontline)... 4th year atm I believe, but he's EBA/commercial so as you said the money is off the chain.

Yeah too many toys for his own good lol

[dezz]

Ah yeah, got a mate that works for Frontline... He's lucky he's working with a company on the EBA otherwise he'd be getting award rates which are less impressive.

NA Z > TT Z

350z looks pretty good in yellow

If global economic climate doesn't improve I think these unions will have priced themselves out of jobs my mates who run the major sites are not getting any work laying kents off left right n centre it costs to much to build in Victoria sure u get the odd cash cow west gate / desal plant when it's good it's good but I had mates on west gate before that no work for 6 odd months was doing handy man shit to keep busy and earning

WOW

[Count Grantleyish]

And before anyone has a cry, I'm not paying out on domestic, just saying there's more to it than those that want to learn more and those who want more money...

In the end of the day, it's worthwhile if you enjoy the job.

For me, I'm not picky as I desperately want to leave Coles so anything better than domestic is a bonus.

[R-SPEC]

lol if you're an A grade with your own business running domestic and making less then commercial/industrial then there's something seriously wrong with your business

I know of domestic A graders making on average $10K+ a week clean in hand

$10K a week. Sheittt...

Do they all drive Fezza's and Lambos too?

I wouldn't pay 15k for ANY commodore, let alone one that's 23 years old... but it's a fair way better than all the lebo spec thrashers out there

I dunno...Safety (employee and environment) is a big thing these days...The little guys aren't gonna get the big jobs because they aren't up to the standards the big builders demand...

when it comes to timing belt time? =(

Yeah replacing all the external belts wasn't too bad with the radiator out though.

Quick look at Carsales says you're probably right. It'd still be alright to thrash about in till it went bang though.
