best website (though probably too late for shipping unless you do express) is latestbuy.com.au

I buy a lot of birthday and Christmas presents there, last one i bought was the RC helicopters, fairly cheap but so much fun.

We are doing secret santa in our family, so I don't have to buy presents for every member of the family! ... with a set budget of $50 max. I only got 1 gift each for my wife & daughter and 1 gift for a random family member.

It was just getting ridiculous, when you had to buy presents for 15+ people. Last year, I gave warning that I refuse to receive presents that were purchased - it had to be either food (meal for everyone) or something that was made themselves.

Little kids are limited to 1 toy, they already have too many toys.

Christmas is also time when theft (and debt) is at the highest rate. People who are pressured financially cannot afford luxury presents but pressured not to dissapoint kids and friends, due to all the "Spirit of Giving" ("Spirit of Buying") cultureTV/Movies/Media produced. Christmas should really be about being together, not "Giving".

They're only 7, jeez!!!

Seriously though all 7 year old now come with an 18 year old attitude, what ever happened to the child in them? Bloody Bratz, Simpsons, Brittany Spears, and commercialism are pushing kids way too fast.

PS. I got another 35rwkw for Xmas..................and I got the missus a big stone Buddah [OK concrete, but it looks like stone].

    • Here's one I help build and tuned a decade ago, Garrett  GTX3071R Gen 1, T3 twin scroll 0.83 rear housing. Went from larger 272 cams down to smaller Tomei Poncams to help with the low end. S13 non VCT motor. Car was purpose built for the track, hence low down was the focus. Note the actual dyno chart shows lower boost, however the EBC and boost gauge showed 1.9Bar (Ignore the torque, I was young and didn't know how to set derived torque)  
    • I’m doing some side developments on SR20det S13 engines, its one my hobby cars used it to compare flow capacity of some smaller size wheels. SR20det is one of another JDM legendary engines I'm sure there are plenty of SR enthusiasts on this forum, I will share results some common turbo configurations here. a quick run down of what the car is: Wide body 180sx Type X with black top engine (blue). It has: Stock bottom end Haltech 1500 ECU 5-0 motorsports trigger kit Kelford SR20DET Beehive Spring with Titanium Retainers Kelford Cams SR20DET S13 188-B 268/272 Cams G25-660 Turbocharger in T2 .64 rear housing internally gated ARP Head studs MLS head gasket 1000CC ID injectors Walbro 450L Fuel pump Front mount cooler kit JJR’s 3 inches turbo back exhaust (its too short for the 180sx it had to be extended) Pump 98 fuel Hub Dyno tune So far made 270rwkws at 22psi full boost by 4500RPM. Engine is very knock limited hence a pretty bad looking top end. From previous experiences it seems like SR20dets are happier with bigger size turbine, some thing like a GT30 would make way better top end, but on same time response is lost. It won't be a problem with S15 VCT engines. I'll be testing alternative turbine housing, turbine wheel and possibly dump pipe options for extra flow to resolve the problem and of course E85 would resolve all the issues.            
    • Awesome writeup and details. Thanks for sharing the story so far. I can relate to parts of it with my previous car and some of the issues I had to deal with.
    • Wow the colour matched hard top completely transforms the car. Are there any nice front lip options for the car or is that off the table?
    • Generally yes but for some reason I've been ruthless this time around!  I might even need to do another tip run after the way I've finally been able to hit the delete button on shit I've stepped over, stepped around and tripped over for the past 10 years!
