Kevin Rudd's Stimulus Package

[Astro Bear]

Alright guys, I didn't start this thread to talk about politics, or to whinge about how much money other people are making. Lets keep it on topic eh?

Judging by the responses so far, I would say that an ECU is the best bet.

[madbung]

O/T maybe some rears for my 34 (1934 not r34)

Where is the part where I say you said the global recession is labours fault.

and its good to see kevin07 sticking with labour tradition and wasting all the money from budget surplus's under liberal. good stuff kev, keep up the good work

What my post says in a sarcastic way is: do you think he has a say in the matter? Do the rest of the planet also have it wrong or are they all following Kev07's misguided Labour lead.

He's blowing all the Liberal parties money...doofus

I speak and write in English, not American English.

I spell colour with a U the same way I spell labour with a U, you can follow the Americanisation of all things if you wish.

Here's a clue

During the early years of the ALP, the Party was referred to by various titles differing from colony to colony. It was at the 1908 Interstate (federal) Conference that the name 'Australian Labour Party' was adopted. In its shortened form the Party was frequently referred to as both 'Labor' and 'Labour', however the former spelling was adopted from 1912 onwards, due to the influence of the American labor movement

I repeat I do not speak American what ever that may be and never will.

Fo shizzle I won't..

nice work idiot... you really are quite simply aren't you...

owned.

now back on topic, to the OP, i still say REMAP, not FC.

I too will be spending this money on the car. Was going to spend on interior, but pretty much scrapping that idea.

I have most the suspension sorted, adj sway bars, shocks, springs, camber kits.

Power stuff...

-full 3" exhaust

-high flow turbo

-fuel pump

-injectors

-blitz spec r ebc

-remap

-rev210 intake mod

-FMIC

-splitfires (not really power)

i think that's about it. Got good tyres, 18" forged rims (GTR), good brake pads, brake stopper thingy...

i'm going to tip in $100, so i can spend $1k. don't know where to go now though? Any thoughts?

I'm really quite simply what? Imbecile.

As I was explaining to your fellow simpleton.

I do not use "American" English, It's a bastardisation of OUR language.

Did you miss that part of the post or was it beyond your comprehension?

You really are clever aren't you.

Thanks for your input Gonad, appreciated.

Boned!

I'm giving my handout back...

REGO!

I think I'll bank the change in protest... or to just continue the trend with what a large number of recipients will do... minimally stimulating the economy.

But in answer to Dreamr33's question, if i were you I'd spend it on suspension mods. Like someone mentioned earlier sways, and a front and rear strut brace, or some second hand shocks in good condition.

hit the search button.

and search boostcruising.

most sold for 500ish. however they were for NON SUNROOF models, which is a bummer

[Sheng]

i'd go for some good tyres, or a huge plasma in the trunk.

[H@ME]

i'm getting either...greddy profec B and a new high boost retune. or 2 new rear tyres and a jim berry race clutch!

well, there you go... a piece of history from 1912, i was not aware of this. But where is this influence now?

i apologise and withdraw my comments (if i could edit)

to the OP, how many k's has your 33 done? $900 prob won't cover it, but will go quite close to doing a 100,000km service

[charlie22]

Uncle Kevin is buying me a new clutch for the 34

[SS8_Gohan]

^ what clutch ya getting, and $??

[charlie22]

Not 100% sure, Might give Jim Berry a call and see what he can do for me.

I have heard he can do a pretty good set up for about $900. Even if it's a bit more it doesn't worry me.

I just don't want something that is going to be heavy and a dog in traffic.

[heslo]

Looks like I'll be putting the money towards a new set of tyres

yup $500 of ours went on marshal mactra tx's

making a rear swaybar atm, another 25$ for some solid steel rod, and wednesday is dyno-day.

200 change out of that ^ to put towards cosmetic touchups, maybe even panda-style

[Astro Bear]

How about spending the money on hi-flowing my standard r33 turbo? I hear it can be done for around $800. Correct?

[SS8_Gohan]

yes, but you still run into the problem of tuning. Yeah, you can just run a new turbo with a boost controller but you don't really see the value out of any of these extra mods unless you get it tuned.

I still say ECU Remap @ Status Tuning, this way whatever mods you do in the future, you can get the most potential out of them.
