Get standard plates from vicroads

Cheers, just had a word with bez about it as well :thumbsup:

Do vicroads hand over standard plates same day?

standard plates cost $75 + $25 issuing fee now? got some when i changed the golf over to VIC and I was like wtf?

cost me 70 bux for slimline standard plates... would have been about 6 months ago. No fee to change them over

man, dont get me started on real estate agents :P

Inspect a house in my price range for auction, agent calls saying they have received offers way above auction range and will sell before auction. Told him to call me if the auction goes ahead. Received no call, decide anyway to visit the auction as details was on the domain website. Arrive to the appartment, and the auction was scheduled 1hr earlier than the stated time on the internet.

It ended up selling $8,000 over the expected auction range when he was telling me that he had received offers $50,000+ above auction range.

Stupid dropkick. I would have easily paid more than $8,000 on that property. Feel like giving him a call tomorrow and raging to him about his shifty and shitty dealings.

yeh unfortunately the industry is rife with duds, at least in a tougher market they get weeded out but we arent all like that i'd offer to show you some places but i spose you dont wanna be a westie ahahaha

like i said but let me know if i can help still trying to chase up the info you pm'd me havent had much luck if your looking at apartments at docklands i can get a guy who sells em new off plan and stuff there to help you maybe

So, thinking of an Evo V, VI or VI TME. Can get most under $20k too which is a plus. Hmmm....

Same here.

Although, there is many other cars I'd like to sample...

:cheers:

This looks interesting

"Geronimo Jerky's Stampede is the first beef jerky in Australia to use Guarana as an ingredient in it's marinading process. So now, not only does Geronimo Jerky give you massive amounts of protein, hardly any fat, a minuscule amount of carbs, but it also gives you a boost to keep you going. One great thing about Stampede is its slow caffeine release giving you a boost of energy that lasts and lasts."

Haha yeah haven't tried that one, I'm not a fan of guarana and all those energy boosters. Give it a shot and let me know? ;)

Oh and, heed their warning about washing your hands after handling the Flaming Arrow...my mate scratched his eye afterwards...had him keeled over!

At the heart of every Evo driver this is a craving for Banana. End of story.

That beeing said, I can't see the point in a TME over the 6. You're going to ditch the dampers and springs, tune etc etc etc

Getting hold of a TME turbo isn't that hard if you want the pimp Ti turbine wheel etc

    • @soviet_merlin Thanks mate!  Nothing too major but will hold me up for a while. I've got lymphomas to get taken off the back of my neck and the middle of my spine which always conjures scary thoughts!  It sounds worse than it is. Yeah great, conjuring more rabbit hole deepening , just what I need! 🤣  
    • I'd argue the F50 kit I got is very good value. For ~2k I got the calipers (refurbed condition), adapters, pads, brake lines, rotors, and top hats. I think you'd be pretty hard to get Evo/GTR/350z brembos + the additional hardware for similar money. Used market for a pair of front calipers alone I've seen tend to run anywhere from $1500-2000 depending on condition.    That said, something like a GTR or 350z brembo is a lot easier to adapt to the Silvia. 
    • Is there a significant price difference between the Evo/gtr/350z brembos vs the F50? Looks amazing.
    • I was actually being a tightarse at the time LOL... My OCD is tickling me into running a 2nd 8AN Teflon hose all the way down and removing the 2x OEM hardlines. My other side of my brain is telling me to run 2x hardlines front to back (also acts as a fuel cooler, so win win).
    • As I mentioned in an earlier post, I had some trouble with the Silvia's brakes dragging back in 2023. I managed to sort it out then, but the same problem came back to bite me late last year. Just take a look at the picture – I had a feeling the handbrake was acting up again, and I was right. Anyway, I'd been wanting to upgrade to bigger brakes for a while. Not that the Silvia's brakes were bad, but it was more of a "want" than a "need", you know? It was funny, though – at the time, I couldn't find any Evo Brembos, 350Z Brembos, or GTR Brembos for a decent price (of course, tons of them popped up online after I already bought my kit!). I ended up going with an F50 Brembo kit, which came with adapters, brake lines, 330mm rotors, and top hats. The F50 Brembo caliper was used in a few other cars too, like the FPV. I also decided this was the perfect opportunity to ditch the Silvia's ridiculous rear brakes and that awful handbrake (some of you were definitely right about that!). I picked up some R33 calipers and all the necessary bits – rear drums, backing plates, and new hardware to refurbish the calipers. Of course, it wouldn't be a project without a few hiccups. Turns out the brake master cylinder was playing up and basically (to put it simply) keeping the brakes engaged. I had it overhauled, and after some adjustments, everything was working again. The whole process took a while, as you can imagine. To top it off, the front right wheel bearings were shot and needed replacing too. This is a rare occasion where I'm posting an update while it's all still fresh! These pictures were taken just this afternoon.
