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...

When I got your message I got on the wrong train! Sorry to hear it buddy!

I finish at 9pm tonight, so it might be too late. But give me a call if you are up for anything tomorrow.

@ 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.

      to have this type of adjustment possible with a curve as I wish, what budget (engine) should be planned?

      George's R33 GTST build

      Harness update time have had great fun and learnt so much already so far with this project. I started off making both the ignition and injector sub harnesses in the hope any mistakes i made here aren't as hard to undo and learn from as the main harness.  A cool comparison of the old harness using presumably TXL wire and the new which is using Tezel. Also opted to use DTM plugs to keep the whole setup as neat and tidy as possible and tucked the wiring under the coil bracket to try and keep it all from sticking out too much. Although the injector harness, I'm not overly happy with as I'm still using the rubber boots that are supplied with the type of plugs it just looks ugly and sticks out like a sore thumb with the white identifiers so a slight redesign may be done.   Then it was main harness time and most importantly trying to route it nice and away from the heat it will use the OEM heater hose routing which is no longer present to keep the harness up high and secure. it's amazing how much smaller this harness is able to be compared to the old one. plugged everything into the emtron and with the help of the tuner again attempted to start it up and instantly fired up and running smoothly on all 6 which was a big shock to myself. So still some routing and adjusting to be done for the final fit up and installing a knock sensor harness plug which is in the post all has gone surprisingly well.     The old harness for shits and giggles.

      They do that at random every now and then, with almost no detectable cause. Mine has done it a couple of times (over 25 years!!). Never worked out why.

      I don't post on here and have been lurking for some time now. Many of the topics have helped me out more times than i can count. I was racing yesterday (11/9) and blew a front right CV shaft. I have spares so I popped a new one in. A thread i read previously said to check the engine mounts if you blow a front CV. Upon inspection, the front right mount was completely separated from the upper plate. This discovery saved me time and money, because i would have blown another CV if i went back out. Just wanted to thank you guys and wish everyone luck with with their builds. (Now if we could only come up with a solution for my power steering belt flying off after hitting the rev limiter, lol)
