To cut a long story short I've been made 'redundant'... suddenly. I had NO IDEA that the company was in such bad shape. Well, I also just learnt that my boss has fled the country!??!

It's the strangest situation... but I'm not cut in the slightest as I was really getting tired of teaching anyway.

Well, it seems this is the time to make a final exit from Japan, I'll probably hang around for another month or so, then it's back to AU for me! Woohoo! :bananaman

I don't want to let fly what I'll do in AU just yet so as not to give myself bad luck or anything (touch wood).

Rezz, sorry to hear about that unfortunate situation. Ive heard similar stories in the past of how school operators suddenly disappeared and then paid for it years down the road.

All I can say is that it was nice meeting you at Central a few weeks back, and ill try and expose 23% of what you have accomplished here in Japan with regards to media.

That sucks Rezz but at least I guess you were thinking of getting out soon. Good luck.

You will now need to pass on the mantle of reporting all things from J Land to a new and worthy successor!

Hmmmm, who might that be?

No seriously, is there any Aussie around that would have the time and patience to do such a thing?

I'm either going to go to Perth (family) or Brisbane (work). I'd prfer to go to Perth obviously, but in Brisbane a good friend of mine is setting up a company so I'd really like to be a part of that. Yes, a Japanese automotive orientated company :thumbsup:

I saw the thread title "I lost my job" & then seen the last post by "Beer Baron" underneath and automatically thought Beer baron must have been caught drinking on the job & got fired... Lol

Bad luck Rezz, I been made redundant once before, it’s a shock because you have no idea the company was in sh#t. Was all good, got another fulltime job 2 weeks later. & in your case you get come back to Oz which is also good. Gona miss your photos from Japan tho...

@ West: Cheers mate, but the journey is definately over... I'm now more in the mood to help Japanese (the cool ones :D hahaha) when they come to AU to live or study or whatever... kind of the next step? At any rate, one things for sure and that is *I don't wanna teach English ever again!* :D

@ geno8r: There had to be an end to the reports from Japan sometime I guess. But I'll always have my contacts and friends here in Japan so it's not the absolute end. But as for the weekly updates etc... yeah, I'm gobnna have to find someone to replace me... if anyones up for that kind of thing???

@ Gojira: no worries moite, will def do something tomorrow. Will mail you.

Justin,

Sorry to hear about your job but I am sure you are ready to leave anyway.

May be another possibility is working in the Travel Industry as you have an understanding of the Japanese culture and Australian culture so I am sure you can put a package tour to show the best of Japan or Australia.

btw, have you heard from Troy as I emailed him a while back and heard nothing.

    • What can't be done with a little bit of decking board or similar timber bolted to a hub flange via 2 wheel nuts is not worth talking about.
    • I noticed something. On the tps sensor and the sensor behind the adjustment screw is adjusted towards the far left. Are these screws supposed to be centered? (this sensor was in the same position before the tune as well)  Also attached a photo of where my car usually idles at when warm (sometimes a tiny bit above that). I think I might have screwed up the calculation and it might have better than I thought lol at 750rpm still not 650rpm though.      
    • So for both general interest of engine health, and to rule out any coolant/oil issues, I organised an oil analysis done on the 125,000klm oil Results below, all good, just a bit of fuel dilution which I'm not too worried about
    • This is actually a really good way of measuring what wheels fit. If only there was a similar measurement between hub face and suspension :p That said, it's probably pretty simple to actually measure it all with the wheel off the car for the rear. The front is a bit more complex but.. 
    • Being the top Google search result for R34 wheel-related inquiries, lemme throw down my experience. I calculated that 100mm from hub face to wheel face is about the perfect fitment for my ENR34 sedan.  I've been running 18x8.5s, ET35, with a 1" spacer. So, 8.5in to mm = 216mm. 216/2 = 108mm. 108-35 = 73mm. 73+ 25 (1" to mm) = 98mm.  If you wanna get close to this on dif widths, here are the offsets you'll want: 9" - ET around 15mm 9.5" - ET around 20mm 10" - you're crazy, but ET around 30mm All these should fit perfectly on a non-widebody, non-GTR Skyline. Note that it's probably the absolute max, and you're probably better off running a couple degrees of camber in this config, but it looks great, super flush.
