iinet 150gb business plan here .. expensive, but I have a public IP range routed and all sorts of other nonsense which none of the other providers will do at a remotely reasonable rate.

I'm roughly 4km from the exchange too - syncs at about 7mbps..

^^^ Pfft I dream of that sort of speed - I live in Northgate (a whole 7km North-east of the city), I am under 2km cable length from my exchange, yet as the whole of Northgate runs off a RIM we can't get ADSL2. I am stuck with a crappy 1,500 connection and pay a higher plan fee for the same amount of data vs a faster ADSL2 connection - go figure.

Didnt Northgate get fiber through Internode?

I find the Microsoft Security Essentials to be a great low resources and reliable antivirus sytem

Thats what I use - it aint bad at all

Northgate is on a rim - you're thinking of Lightsview/Lightview which is adjacent - and is still being constructed

    • Congrats on the career change!  I did something similar at the start of the year too, left IT / corporate after nearly 2 decades. Soooo when's the motor coming out for the spark plug change?
    • Hi guys, long time no post as per usual! It's been a busy year so far, the biggest thing being a new job.  After 28 years in the automotive industry I decided it was time for a change.  I was losing faith in the industry and where it's heading.  Now in a completely different industry (electrical) working for a company that manufacture water pump contollers.  Not as sexy as cars but it's an interesting,  challenging industry. I now don't work Saturdays which is a bonus!  It's still 50-55 hours a week but having Saturdays ack after 28 years of working them is awesome!   No news on the GT-R but i did decide to add some more JDM goodness into my life....           1990 300 ZX.  She's not perfect but for a 35 year old car she ain't bad!  Just going to tidy it up a bit and enjoy it.  It's currently auto but will start stockpiling everything for a manual swap. It WILL distract me even further from the GT-R but im hoping not for too long! It somewhat proves a 6'8" freak can fit in a 300 ZX.  Sort of...  I drove it home from the previous owners house in Melbourne via Black Spur and Merton Gap (2 awesome bits of Victorian twisty road) and it was amazing!  Handles so well!!!   I don't think it would be worthy of a full build page but I'll post up some of the upgrades here if anyone is interested?  Cheers guys!
    • End game is to: - Remove all the slop from old worn parts - Adjust setup so that the wheels actually fit and the car is drivable (currently it is not because of the extreme rubbing on the guards).   Progress over the last couple of days, removed the rear hubs! Next steps: - Buy bushings - Replace bushings/bearings on hub - Reinstall
