I want to see evidence too. I remember working at Coles for $8.70 an hour at one point...casual too lol. Pay rises because of age were always awesome. By the end of it my Sundays were around $30 an hour and public holidays were just win, the stuff dreams are made of.

Yes please! I just spent two months over seas though so only short trips for now... Then mebe in a couple of years when I am 25 and we can rent a Ferrazi and go crazy on ze German Bahns :3

Lolz. Is it just me or does Flynnns gender say 'Female'? This has happened a couple of times where people have used male terms and I'm confuzzled.

Flynnn?

Contemplating on going to US again this time east & southern coasts in the next month or two but for a Euro trip, i'd much prefer to spend a couple if not more months to see and enjoy it to its full extent. So much culture, so much civilization, history.. need to take time to see it all.

However, a day or two at the Nurbering is a definite must.. We take the Fezza there, what you reckon? :P

Where did you end up going over the two months you were abroad?

Flynnn why do you lie? And why did you comment on my lady shoes? :/

I never lie even when i lie i tell the truth :) Your boots are cool, It's a compliment :)

I started on $5.43 an hour at kfc, when I was 15. True story.

Was 14 years and something when i started my first job at Hungry Jacks Bourke St. Mall, CBA.. was getting $4.80 p/h, felt bad man. Then moved to my local KFC at the rate you described few months later.

Wow you got jibbed... I started working when I was 12 on $7.19/hour at an independent cafe. Had $2k by the time I was 15 and nothing to spend it on. Those were the days.

I have been dreaming of getting a real car out on those roads for a while now and am happy to share the experience with anyone who will enjoy it. As long as they don't watch me while I sleep :glare:

I did 1 month in the US for the MotoGP in Laguna Seca and Indianapolis. It went: LA-Laguna Seca-San Francisco-Hamptons-NYC-NJ-Austin Texas-Indianapolis.

Highlights: Scored an incredible $10,000/night 3 story penthouse apartment in NYC by accident for the standard price of course, met Alex Craville-MotoGP World Champ, and Austin. Austin was a highlight in itself, I would rate it one of the best cities in the US, not 'texas' at all. Go there if you can, it has the best music and bar scene, very chilled out.

Then from there 1 month in Europe for my birthday as by chance 3 of my sisters were there: Country France, Paris, Amsterdam and London.

I went back just recently and visited Spain (Valencia and Barcelona) and Milano for the GP and Moto Show for work purposes. Spain is absolutely awesome. Had done Switzerland, Andorra and a few of those previously mentioned countries last year and they were great as well. Can't get enough of driving through those Alps.

Europe does have a lot more culture, but I found the people in America quite friendly and entertaining. Hopefully will get back to one or both next year.

Well you have very good taste in shoes... But you do realise the purpose of the photo was the light cycle part right? :P .

    • Speaking of diverting threads, my second ever NISMO purchase…. I think they look pretty classy and just wanted to share 😅   PS: 1st was the oil drain plug 😂  
    • R12 has not been not available for....decades now. Propane is not a great replacement. (I mean, it's a great replacement, but it is a bit too flammable). R134a being the only way to go forward with an R12 system. The design pressures etc, are close enough to R12's to work. The ability to move heat around is close enough to R12's to work.
    • Out of curiosity, what's the reason for converting? I think @R3N3 might have the Frenchy's kit in the R33? I somehow think of you as the ambassador for realistic and clean street-driven setups nowadays  
    • careful when running the car after a boil over. Ive heard you can lose enough coolant that it won't show the right temps because of too much air in the system (or something like that). Make sure the levels are good before trying again.  Maybe a mobile mechanic can come have a look with their scan tool ?
    • OK, just for some extra clarity - there is more than one option at Frenchy's. 1. You can buy the whole kit - with or without the actual compressor. The whole kit includes mounts, hoses, condensor, etc. That's either ~$2200 or ~$2800. No surgery required with this option. 2. You can buy just the bracket (~$600), or the bracket with the compressor (~$1200). Either of this or the above option "without the compressor" is if you already have an Echo comp or you are able to source one locally. Whatever the case, in this option, you will need surgery done on your hoses to adapt to the new compressor. When I said "the Frenchy's kit", I meant the whole kit in option 1. It is obviously somewhat more $$ than a $1500 OEM compressor. But if I had to spend $1500 on an OEM compressor, I would certainly consider spending double that to renew and significantly update everything forward of the firewall. Another option is to rebuild your original compressor. My R34 comp is currently dead and I will be most likely doing that to it if the spare one in the shed is also leaky.
