oh erm. anyone in the army reserves?

Skylinegeoff is full-time army I think?

I expect no holding at Singleton for Sydney anymore! :P last week we did 3 laps of the Army base!!!! haha....

It's a pain when that happens! I've met the guys that work that sector. I work at Newcastle/Williamtown Tower and TCU. The biggest jet we see is prob a B738, plus the military stuff.

The civil ATC system is based upon a computer that can calculate your SY slot time pretty much once you have departed, and that'd be why the controller had to shaft you with the holding :P but hey, if I know the flight number, I'm sure we can sort things out to make you an easy #1...hehe

btw do you really get a fuel bonus?

The car is in Bris, and should be ready for Sydney pickup around the 10th. That said, it sure feels good to know it's here finally. I don't think I'd import again - a nice 92 model sounds like the ticket! :P

Cowie.....SSSssshhhhhh.

Just got relocated to Technical Integrity in Army HQ. Something to do with policy and implementation. Over it already. long service in May and home to Qld (brissy) and out of the green.

Hey all, I work for a large Global outsourcing company (EDS) as a Senior Project Planning specialist mainly doing large IT Infrastructure projects. I'm working out of Canberra ATM on Customs and Tax.

What do I really do, Whatever it takes to earn money for the weekends!

its rumoured that i am a panel beater/gearbox repairer,fitter/engineer/welder/fabricator.....just clarifying its not true... i dont know anything about cars.......

Yeah bullshit Troy!!! U built an R34 GTR from scratch, with a piece of sheet metal!!! :wassup:

Also looking for a better position in 3rd level desktop support, 2/3rd level network support... let me know :D

riggap: what area of support are you looking at? I think the position "consultant analyst programmer" is available, not sure if its been filled yet, but I will definately let you know caus we get a $3k headhunting fee at end of probation :D

    • Old Son, did you re-use the Holden ABS in the new shell or try a different module?
    • Yeah, nah. I had the actuator rod off it today. The arm will not move at all. Neither out, nor in. Yeah, you'd think so, but I've been thinking about that. Even when the actuator rod fell all the way off at the beginning of this saga, it would build more boost and faster in lower gears than it would in higher gears, and you'd think that that was the opposite of what should happen. But I strongly suspect that there is a thing with the gearing getting the revs to rise faster, that there must be some transient effect with the gas flow rate rising quickly, that you don't get with the more steady state case of the higher gears. Keep in mind - the gate is not shut in either of my weirdnesses. So things are not "normal". We normally think about a turbo spooling up (below the wastegate target) with the gate shut. I have all sorts of mental models running now where the gate is a little bit open, and having it stuck open allowing gas out while it should be going through the turbine has all sorts of weird effects (in these mental models). I'm thinking in the higher gears, the ex mani pressure builds to the point where enough gases spill out the wastegate to just prevent the pressure rising much more at all, or just creeping up, all the whole the revs are increasing and getting closer to the point where a gear shift becomes necessary.
    • Is it possibly wastegate actuator itself is sticking, or even the rod to flapper? Otherwise I reckon things are getting a bit rusty/worn   Also odd it won't boost in 3rd to 5th, but will in 1st, I'd expect the other way around with it slightly open as there's more time on your way to redline for it to spin up
    • Does anyone know ow what these two plugs are for and if they should be unplugged? Just put the dash back together and can't remember if these were plugged in before or unplugged! (Blue and white plugs) 🤦🏽‍♂️
    • Did some FASTing ...got the impression that the actual part# was a moot point ; seems all of these hardlines for coolant are discontinued/NLA... like, I take it you're after the hardline that bolts onto to the manifold...that's NLA according to amayama & nengun .... ...just to clear up some confusion, they typically mounted the AAC valve to the intake manifold somewhere near a coolant passage, so the body of the valve heats up & holds it open when engine's up to temp - no coolant flows through the valve, it's a mechanical, thermal connection.
