You laugh now, but when I'm at a formal occasion with a shitty DJ and they need someone to drop Dre beats...I have something up my sleeve.

The statistics aren't accurate for reasons I raised in my post

It's not foreign ownership when the purchaser is a resident

You'd need statistics on ethnicity of home buyers and multiple home buyers, but can't do that for obvious reasons

How many people do you think are trusting friends or family with hundreds of thousands possibly millions of dollars to get a house to get around laws? Not many Id imagine especially since they can apply to the foreign investment review board for permission

well the whole point for the $5000 fee for international investors is to fund investigations into purchases which were cutting corners/illegal.

"The higher application fees and penalties are expected to fund an improved enforcement of the current foreign investment rules.

"We need to make sure that all foreign investors are following the rules, and that those foreign investors who break the rules are not able to profit from breaking the law," the Prime Minister, Tony Abbott, said in launching the paper."

I hear Ya man but being in the industry and having contacts all over im gonna go with the info im getting from people on the front line it's a non issue - just a popular policy for the 'battlers' / art students who took gap years and fkd around through their 20s and wanna blame someone for the fact they can't afford a house.

Heaps. That's like saying why are there boat people when they can just wait in line for immigration. The figures don't add up when I hear of so many auctions being dominated by the Chinese - and I'm expected to believe that only a billion or so dollars traded hands from foreign investors = only ~2000 or so homes Australia wide?

They don't trust their own government or banks / local investments so send over here instead. Australian property market is the new Swiss bank account.

Just cos they look chinese doesn't make them a foreigner man, plenty of 2nd, 3rd, 4th generation permanent residents just as entitled to buy as you are.

Well if im having difficulty on a FIFO professional income, I'd hate to imagine how art students would have any chance...

      I like it when the counter chick leads you out the back into the racks and says "have a grub around in here and see if you can find what you need. I'll be back in a few minutes. Just left me in front of a massive motorised shelving system and 2-3 million fasteners, so I could find a peculiar SS shoulder bolt with cap head. Gotta love country towns.

      I used this https://osgiken.com.au/product/os-giken-os-250r-lsd-gear-oil-80w250-1-litre/   shut my nismo 1.5 pro up by heaps…. Not silent though. Gives the car character and personality. It ain’t a carolla. If you want silent, put a quaife in it.

      It's about the same time for me from Bunnings, or the Fasteners. My big push away from takeaway food, and gluten in general keeps me away from the Bunnings Snags too! Weather up here, I've been out for two walks today in the beautiful sunshine. Had a few little drizzles, and some wind, that honestly, a tin of beans and I could compete on how harsh she blows Thankfully, being this bit inland, we're not getting anything much really. Will probably pick up a bit more when/if Cyclone Alfie decides to come ashore. A few areas in the GC though, and south into NSW are really getting smashed though! Right now, I'm just annoyed Alfie hasn't hit, as I'm not allowed to crack into the BBQ foods like the bacon and eggs until the Cyclone hits "In case we lose power"...

      I love fastener joints, the price difference between them and joints like Bunnings or Super Cheap is amazing, and they either have exactly what you want, or they can get it to quick They have even given me some for free when I only needed a couple of specific size In saying this, I have paid premium for fasteners from Bunnings if they have the sizes I need, but only for convenience really, as my local is only 10 minutes away, the Sushi joint near them is also a consideration  How's the weather Matt? Stay safe mate

      Wideband is worth setting up if only for tuning purposes. I would not mess with the ignition system unless there's a misfire. HKS crank trigger is popular out here for the relatively easily sourced Denso crank sensor, not a bad idea to install as well regardless of power level on a standalone. Boost leak test is worth thinking about. Oil pressure sensor tied to a fuel cut isn't a bad idea either. Getting the tune figured out is a good idea. Without putting eyes on it and getting under it there's no way for us to tell you exactly what it needs but most likely you're down to the last 10% that will make a big, big difference in how happy you are with the car.
