So any-one know what working culture NAB is like?

about two weeks ago they forced win 7 onto all the desktops without telling staff overnight

then they had to restore crap from backups etc as people lost their data

1) poor strategy

2) poor comms

3) local data risk

4) v behind basic OS lifecycle schedule

but otherwise its probably good

i applied for a role there a few weeks ago

i know two other people who work there too

Unrelated:

Today switched from 50,000km old KU31 235s on the front and nearly bald R1R 265s on the rear to AD08 255s and AD08R 265s respectively.

Wow what a transformation. Those tyres are unbelievably good value for the $220 each they cost me. So much corner grip it's ridiculous; just turns in so well with the 255s up front. And finally a set of road tyres that can hold my 2nd gear all the way through - time to break out the G-tech again Leigh :P

Mind you, those KU31 are an incredibly hard wearing tyre. Still 40% tread left on these. Awesome value for a daily driver not pushing too much power.

Let me know how you go!

I wish we tried it again when I had NT05s on

interesting.

got an offer from them on friday.

not sure if I want to work at a bank tho.

Not if you pay enough money to AASA... There is NO WAY we'd be able to get insurance for 4 people in a car with no helmets and 30 on the track at a time... but they classify it as a Cruise Event and it's all fine apparently...

im glad people are doing it off the street (though i doubt many at the event save it for the track anyway), but surely there has to be a better way of holding such an event without damaging a racetrack.

Don't be silly, they've all practiced on racetracks while holding selfie sticks with go pros

Lol what a load of bullshit.

We have been rolling out win 7 for about 6 months now and it comes on a new laptop entirely. The few desktops that remain are still running XP.

Before moving to win 7 you get 11ty billion emails explaining exactly what to do, when and how.

Nab is great. Work/life balance is amazing and the culture is very strong. Most people stuck around for a LONG time. We do pay less than the other 3 however generally have higher bonuses

(Which kinda backfires when you we buy failing banks in England and have to provision hundreds of millions then cut bonuses lol)

    • Hey guys. I have a 400R on its way to Australia from Japan currently and have a few questions I’m hoping others may be able to help with.   Wondering if anyone here has had any luck getting the Sat nav unit to work in Australia!? Assuming the Stereo is as simple as a band expanded and tv won’t work?  Seeing as they’re based off a Q50 which is Aus delivered is there any way to link that system to the nav? Nav modules and head unit are different part numbers and appear slightly different at the rear with plug ins etc. can I put my xtrail sd card into the rv37 and will that convert the maps or update to Australian? Has anyone got any advice here?     also has anyone fitted the factory remote start and Security system once it’s landed in Australia? I put an enquirey to Nissan Japan in via a third party, and they suggested it needs a Nissan Japan dealers device to setup and couldn’t guarantee if one here could do it or not. They can supply and I can physically fit it but to setup I would need a dealers device. Any information here would be appreciated also. I’ve seen one here with it fitted already prior to leaving Japan at a dealer/inporter, so clearly passes compliance and works when fitted Japan and doesn’t need changing here.      also, does the tyre inflation sensors work here? Does anything change with them when the vehicle arrives? Where are they actually situated? I’ve read they have batteries and they need to changing at times and seems like resetting involves the nav system?    any help here would be appreciated and any other aust specific information to help would be great. Looking forward to see what the current generation skyline is like and eager to see how many of the gadgets can be utilised here.  Thanks in advance 
    • Do need to take it with a pinch of salt. One of the adapter failures, they clearly had setup issues with the flywheel.  One of the slipping ones I spoke to and it was pretty clear the throwout was riding, rather than fix, just swapped to a new clutch.    These clutches are being put in anything from 5k offroad 4x4 beaters, GR yaris, 500hp commodores to 1200hp barra monsters. Bound to be some issues in some of them when they are not a simple bolt in affair due to the changes in height.    There is a lot going on in this picture and unless I did the job myself no way to tell what really happened. 
    • I did this mod in 2019  You just have to modify the top bracket of the ABS/TC/Fuel Pump Control ECU so it sits more upright and closer to the back seat and run a good quality positive battery lead from the engine bay, the negative lead i just bolted down to the body in the boot.
    • Damn... Not the feedback I want to hear.
