Working and living in suburbs = lovin life

Personally find the city a depressing place to be during the day, so many zombies...further away the better for me

A long term missus & suburb livin'

You used to be all about that bass.

Cleaning up the tool kit atm, as it's driving me nuts finding things.

other than a pouch any-one seen some smart ways to store spanners?

kit is my track kit so gets bounced around so non slip or thin plastic trays just not last.

too big to fit in the car.

plus my main one is too heavy to lift in and out of ute every time (Shed to street I have to go through the house!)

Built up a 2nd smaller kit for track days only

wratchet spanners, socket set, screw drivers plus lots of little things I have found helpful over the years.

Just got my socket rails so now time to clean up the spanners.

How far out would you have to go in the east to get a 5 bedroom house with a double garage on a 600sq block for under $400K?

Everyone wanting 4x2 on blocks of land.

That ship has sailed. Move States or get used to high density living.

It's alright depends what time your traveling but it's a trade off your getting double the property for your money but spending more time traveling but have better home quality of life & space etc.

Last time I checked the radio the monash, eastern, ring road etc all sounded pretty shite @ peak hour..

You forgot one major thing though Al (and I know this is going to be a can'o'worms) but proximity to good public schools.

No f**king way my Kid is going to St Albans high just so I can have a bigger bedroom

How realistic / repeatable is that Pat? Given the swarms of engineering grads in here who are looking for jobs

I'm gonna stand by my promotion of a good work ethic. Don't see how a pissing contest is going to actually help Jonoe

LOL

I just use one of these and then have a small bag with all the other bits and pieces.

Noice

This clamshell set fits perfectly snug on the floormat behind my driver's seat, zero movement...like it was made for that space. Farkin tough tools too...have had a 150cm jack handle over the ratchet using it to break a sump bolt free.

    • I thought about ditching it but I was worried my bonnet would sound like a 90's Swift GTi sub-filled boot. 
    • Have you found that you have to tighten your alternator belt once in a while? Mine has started to squeal again after the mechanic tightened it roughly a year ago and the engine starts up slow if I don't start it every day (think the starter motor is going out). It used to be if I don't drive it once a week I'd get a quick squeal on the belt but now it's every day or every other day. I might make a post of the start up sound.
    • I spent the entire of the long weekend going through my garage and I'm now, after 3.5yrs in this house, able to fit a car in. The garage is quite long and the back half has a high enough ceiling for a 2 post lift but it's going to just take too much space and I don't think I'd be able to get around the car if it was in the air. So, in comes the quick lift. It looks perfect. High enough to do most things, I reckon even getting a gearbox out would be doable.  Does anybody here have one? They're fairly cheap (~$3k) considering...  https://www.dtmtrading.com.au/product/quick-lift-portable-vehicle-hoist-3500-kg-worksafe-approved/ I'm also a bit of a non risk taker so I'd probably still use stands when under!  
    • Well now we all see it! I did the same. Then cut it out. Then melted half of it. Then discarded it entirely. So... you're in good company.
    • I just replaced the god awful, sagging, crunchy bonnet insulation. It's something nobody but I see but it's been at me for a while.
