Turbo is ace, strong as the day I put it in after 40,000km+. I blew a T3 gasket recently cause a nut or two were missing from the flange lol

We replaced that (and tightened manifold nuts which were also loose) in about 3 hours and it's better than ever

Now traction is an issue again, even with AD08s

Refresh motor. Use my gaskets.

Leave car rat-spec. GTX turbo. Decimate all.

The pulsar has Nismo key, Nismo oil cap and some random Nismo badge thing on the centre console. Says volume about the previous owner....

The Nismo weighted gearknob is very nice though.

Ran into a guy on site who was at Roy Hill most of this year... Some f**king stories. Sounds like one of the biggest circus construction jobs. Dodged a bullet not going, but could have really done with the work.

Apparently they couldn't find Australians of my profession with experience in a newer Siemens equipment that hasn't been released here... So Samsung send their team over from Korea. None of whom spoke English or had worked in Australia before. Then they needed more, so one of the Zimbabwean managers brings over all his friends. Needed interpreters and constant supervision. Singing and chanting during lunch and in the mess hall. $90/h wouldn't have been too shabby though for 80 hour week.

haha yeah ive heard interesting stories about the construction.

I believe there was a memo published by Samsung which had a photo of tradies standing around on the job; Memo said to performance manage crew & to utilise idle time. Memo leaked onto Facebook & all the tradies blew a gasket.

Korean Management managing an Australian tradie workforce. Will never go down well haha.

[Mohsen]

let me manage them, gauranteed shit would get done faster lel.

[PENGUYEN]

I'm building a prison in ravenhall

You say that but when the entire construction work force has the mindset of "the sooner we finish the job, the sooner I'm unemployed" not a whole lot gets done. Combined with people who have no idea what they're doing and contracting more people who don't know what they're doing and you get $600mil+ over budget and not even close to finishing.

In Queensland last year I think the whole thing was $2bil over. We were the 3rd set of contractors to do exactly the same tasks at the same locations. Was a clusterf**k. Pretty much sums up mining/oil/gas construction jobs. And now that they're wrapping up, all these Muppets from WA, SA, NT and QLD will be looking for more stable work. A large percentage of the skilled workers are foreigners too. Goddamn south African migration on some sites.

blame the muslims!

motor only ahd 10-15K on it, no need for a refesh there esp with how log boost it is running..

That's either a reeeeeeally cheap house or a reeeeeealy overpriced bodykit

no where near a total deposit, but should go in that account.

think will split it in 2 and get best of both worlds.
