apologies to traction tyres... rear suspension just hasnt got that much rear camber to give. plus needs a roll.

will hunt down some Z33 camber kits and fingers crossed they'll fit :unsure: thats what the 'muricans say they use

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...

    • Hmm. Yes. I should have been clearer. 1000s for Haltech, for extra headroom. 725s for Nistune. You might even be OK with 640s, but if the possible power ends up much more than 300 rwkW you will run out of headroom on the 640s. That would probably be OK and a signal to not push it to that sort of power with Nistune anyway. At that level you probably do want to be thinking about engine protection functions. Oh, and all of that presumes 98 only, not E85. Well....the 1000s would allow you to run E85 at ~300rwkW territory, again, maybe sort of running out of headroom. Hard to tell with E85 - depends on the tuner as to how rich they like to set it up.
    • Yes.  The only scenario I can imagine when the answer isn't yes, is if you drive like there is highway patrol behind you at all times.  If your car currently runs, enjoy it and keep saving. Better costs more, keep saving until you can budget the better ECU. It's worth it.  Nope. Plenty of us making >300kw on unopened motors. Mine is unopened and makes about 350kw if I turn everything up, its fine (lots of caveats here, how the car will be used/abused, how long you expect the engine to last between rebuilds, how has the engine been maintained prior to coming into your ownership, etc etc).   
    • Sorry just wanting to clarify, at this power goal, which should I be going? Also, More info regarding suspension, the rear upper camber arms were used to get the camber back to i believe around -0.5 ~ -1 degree (@ Road and Race in Rydalmere), I forgot the exact figure, but ALOT less camber than what it came originally which was like -2.5degrees. Are the traction arms still recommended? The bilsteins from SydneyKid, they've got 400lb/in fronts & 275/in in the rear, revalved to his specs. Intercooler, I'm just having a look at some on Rakuten.jp and some other japanese sites. Might get something from back there, GReddy, Blitz or HPI, all crossflow. Looking at roughly $450-$500 AUD + shipping... Theres not many choices except that chinese branded Justjap unless you go for blitz return flow. Yeah, only downside with Haltech is the price ahhaha, so expensive, and with all the sensors if I go that route... $$$$$ yeesh. Are headstuds/gaskets needed for <300akw?
    • Haltech fanboi reporting in. Buy the Haltech! 
    • You can try shoving a borescope down there to see what's up.
