yeh mr spencer wat are you whinging about if you pay 1200 a week in tax you must be pulling in around 1600 a week in the hand!

anyways mine is going straight on to my ge creditline for my new wheels i got, 12 months interest free.

as much as i would love to use towards a set of coilovers, i really have to pay some debt off first haha

Big Kev the second is paying for my Power-FC re-tune for my RS4s as at the SAU-Vic dyno day my peak power was only 110awkw at 4000rpm and the power went down from there?

Damn, that's pretty piss-poor, I managed to drag up 126awkw on my stocker just after I bought it...

might buy some whiteline swaybars and get a tune :)

Good luck with that, I'm having trouble getting Whiteline to admit thay have made an adjustable HD bar for the GT-R...

But back OT, when I get my moolah next month, it will help pay for things I've already bought! :down:

might get a few items from the whiteline catalog, or nistune setup, or put it towards a new tig welder (hello custom IC/intake piping). either way i'm happy, i love getting something for nothing :down:

Trust me, we will be paying it back with interest in the long run!

... and here I was thinking that we have already paid for it with interest over the past 13 years...

... I still think that 1 initial payment to "the people" and then tax cuts would have helped our economy in the long run.

I know I would be happier to spend if I had an extra $50-100 per week in my pocket than a $900 lump sum.

Back On Topic;

Looks like I will be putting the money in to help with the house deposit (the land is ours already :down: )

Agreed tax cuts would of been a beter option, i guess that would of taken to long to filter through where as the lump sum is almost instant.

I should really be getting stuff for the house were building now, but meh i need the car fixed to.

Already bought myself a MSI Wind netbook ($600). The M35 is due for a big-ish service soon too so the rest will go towards that - have some small issues to fix up on the car - just minor stuff mostly.

I was going to use mine towards a new front bumper, hks split dump and maybe get a new Greddy intercooler.. but decided to use it to upgrade my current PC and use my current parts to build another server for my house.. so car's going to have to wait for tax time..

Maybe you should get an iPod 'cause your wife is going to be talking about the Dyson in very excited tones for a while.

Can't go past a Honda mower... VTEC? :D

A mate at work bought a Bogan Tv. It lasted 2 days. Has been 4 weeks waiting for it to be fixed.

I picked up a 50" Panasonic full HD yesterday. :blink:

Great picture

      Questions on potential new purchase

      By latino_R35 · Posted

      Hey all, not sure how active SAU is anymore but will ask away anyways. Just wanted to get some experience on the 2008 model GTR CBA model.  I've hit that age in my life (43) where I'm like fk it time to get my dream (midlife crisis) car. Looking at importing one in and seeing if these can be reliable if the main flaws are fixed up. Plan is to keep money aside to do the following straight off the bat to future proof it: * install a stage 1 rebuilt trans with all new bits and pieces.  * install a new Bellhousing from the later model GTRs. Or potentially an upgraded stronger version like MAD or ATR. Besides the above two things and typical maintenance items anything else you'd recommend doing.   Been speaking to a few people and the engine on these are very reliable apparently. But keen on the view of the community here. Hoping to find a nice grade 4.5 with low mileage in Grey. I'd go black but swirls too easy. Look forward to your responses and feedback. Cheers

      Do Alan and Keith work on Skylines now? I remember buying stuff from them when I owned my Ralliart Lancer a few moons ago. Definitely genuine guys and be excellent if they dealt with the skyline platform as well.

      Hey all, I'm Gaston from Sydney's West.  I was a member on here when I was a younger lad and owned a mint R33 GTS-T. Ended up selling it and getting married having kids (yadda yadda) we all know how the story goes. Now I'm back with the intention to get my midlife crisis (dream) car ... a R35 GTR.  You'll see me about asking questions and searching the forums. Good to be back and can't wait to get back an Import again.

      I have to put something here in order to post the photos. From what I could gather there's more enthusiasm for modified cars now than there has been for years. There were probably more younger people there than older (me included lol) which was a good sign.  It did seem like the record least amount of representation of the 90's era hero cars on display though. Like maybe one or two examples of S-chassis Nissans, and maybe 3 or 4 R-chassis. By comparison there were a lot of Civics from that era but in all there were about 10 - 12 EG/EK Civic Type R.  Euro exotics are always there in large numbers, led by Liberty Walk...... say what you will about kids using markers to scribble on a Ferrari F40, it did seem like a stunt to infuriate Ferrari enthusiasts, or Ferrari itself. I wonder if there's something more to it. Either way LBWK have done some heinous things to a Lamborghini Miura this time. They should stop now.
