I like chatswood area too but screw buying here. $800,000 for a cottage...

I ended up buying a place in Marsfield which is two suburbs over from Chatswood. Not too far so you cant go there when you want but far enough so that the Chatswood traffic doesn't worry me as much.

As well as house prices being $100 - $300k cheaper.

im looking for a place myself but finding the interest rates on a loan are killing hte idea quick

public transport from btown area = 45-50 mins with the newER schedules, evry 15 mins with xpress from btown at the 30-35 mins, feel your pain, i work 10hr+ days to, you in I.T. aswell ? ehahahhahaAHHA

sooooOO many I.T. freaks driving lines.... people in I.T. like their pony's eh

Look, most people are NEVER going to say where they live sucks, but at least some can give you the bad points vs the good points

All I see is bad points damn your oily hides!

Someone make good points ><

well i'll make some good points for you.

pretty much anywhere within 5kms of the city centre (perhaps exclude south of city as you hit redfern) is a good bet. You will be close to transport, close to the city and potential work. Close to nice places to go out etc. and possibility of a nice view too.

as for parking the easy option is buy a place with either a garage or secure car space. It's never been an issue for me.

Plus being close to the city just about gaurentee good capital gains and good rent return down the track if need be.

I love the Hills. I love being able to walk around the suburb at night for 2 hours and see maybe 3 cars drive past. I also love being able to drive for 5mins before seeing any traffic.

^^ good points re: my area.

Oh, also, I have lots of bushland around me. LOTS. It's prettiful. :laugh:

Hell I work in Cumberland Forest!! :)

    • Duncan:- it affect both sides.  Driver side is worse.
    • That seems like a very special issue!  Does it affect both sides? Either way, I would disconnect the driver's side switch and see if it still happens, noting that might require removal of the whole door card which is a bit of a pain (it does on V37 and HY51)  
    • MBS206:- The windows start to slowly open themselves. GTSBoy:- Battery is new since Dec. 
    • I currently have a 2008 370GT Coupe, with the big brakes (Akebeno if I'm correct), and Its coming time to get new pads. Previously, I had a 2003 350GT Coupe with the stock sized brakes, not Brembos. I had custom wheels on it that were pretty open to the brakes, and when I first put the wheels on it, the rims where completely coated with brake dust. A few years after adding the new rims, I needed to change to pads on that car. I didn't do any research, but I told the mechanic of the problem with the brake dust. I also told him I didn't track the car or even drive around the streets harshley. But the dust was an issue. The mechanics changed the pads to a different compound, and the dust was GONE! The other change I noted was that when coming to a complete stop, instead of having to press harder on the pedal as I approached 0kph, I had to actually lift off a little to not come to a hard jerky stop.( My unfounded explanation is they became stickier as they heated by stopping ) Since I got my 370gt with big brakes, I noticed that that as I came closer to stopping, I had to press harder and harder to reach a full stop. I am not talking about hard, just harder. I brought the car in from another state, so when I had a blue slip done, I asked the mechanic what he thought of the brakes, and he thought they were brilliant. The only negative of these pads on the 350GT, was that they squealed when cold. So driving out of a shopping center carpark, it was a little embarrassing, as the brakes squealed, and I am sure people thought that I needed new brakes, when they were actually fresh. I have no idea of what type of compound they were on the 350gt, but whatever it was, I want to get the exact same on my 370GT. They weren't ridiculously expensive, and were replaced at the local JAX (which is no longer open), so I am certain they would be a pretty common big brand, off the shelf type/brand. My current mechanic suggested I need top get the rear pads changed soonish, but he suggested standard Brembo pads. Which I expect to behave the same as the current ones and not like the ones on the 350GT.  I don't think dust will be an issue on the 370GT. With the behaviour I describe above on the 360GT, does anyone have a suggestion of pad material that will act like the change I had done on the 350GT?
