I don't wanna go fixed and have the repayments capped...

What's a realistic variable rate to go for Hamish/others with lower variable rates than me?

I'll call em up and if I can't get it or near it I'll bite the bullet and change banks. Might move all my accounts, credit cards, insurance etc too

Just have a look around Dezz...

Ubank are offering 4.29% comparison. It's also a safe option as they are ALWAYS one of the lowest.

CBA won't do much to help. It's always worth asking if they can match Ubank, but it's a big jump.

They are good with minor pricing discretion, but half a % might be pushing it.

CBA don't WANT to be the cheapest, which is why they aren't. With CBA you get a service that other banks can't offer, but it is never the cheapest.

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.

Still look into fixing dezz. With current rates it's the right time as it's only going up. Just need to find someone that offers a good fixed rate WITH a 100% offset account. Not all lenders do them but it gets around the extra repayments issue.

Just need to be 101% sure you aren't going to want to sell before the term is up.

I don't even know what the comparison rate means. If it's not the rate I'm getting, why are they quoting it?

What service is that exactly? I'm not unhappy with CBA, apart from wanting a lower rate, but apart from actually lending me the money, they don't really do anything else for me service wise..

Plan is to keep it as a rental if/when I move onto something bigger/better ...

I gather a fixed rate loan with a 100% offset account means my extra repayments may be capped, but I just put that money in the offset account which is the same as paying it straight onto the loan anyway?

At the moment I just put it on the loan (pretty much just use my home loan account as a savings account)

Comparison rate is the total of what you pay (fees, charges, interest) expressed as a percentage for the purpose of comparing products.

In a nutshell it is now a legal requirement to display it and it is the only figure you should be looking at in 99% of cases

What service is that exactly? I'm not unhappy with CBA, apart from wanting a lower rate, but apart from actually lending me the money, they don't really do anything else for me service wise..

Mostly fluffing... It's just that you walk into any CBA and you get served very quickly, loan apps are processed much faster etc.

it's nothing that you "need" however it's their business model and their shares are worth 11ty billion so it's unlikely to change in the near future.

Personally I don't care for "service" and am happy to go with a bank that takes longer but is cheaper.

Exactly... which is why most banks don't offer it, or if they do it's a 1 or 2 year deal only.

Just be sure to check the exit fee situation if they offer 12 months only as you may want to move once the welcome mat is pulled out from under you.

I rarely go to the branch, i'd say maybe once every month or two if that, and it's usually on an RDO so rarely busy anyway..

I'll have to call up and see what they'll offer... It'll drop to 4.75% on the 13th but pretty sure Tobes said he was getting like 4.45% before this latest cut

Yeah only got that low as I had in writing an offer from NAB

Otherwise I would be on about 4.65% i think (before recent rate cut)

I was on 4.55% less rate cut .22% = 4.33%

      R34 power steering

      Thanks, plan is to drain all fluid tomorrow and do smoke test to find out the leak.   Appreciate your help and want to understand how the system work. So cooling is achieved by the long loop not any rad? The diagram seems to suggest it connects to somewhere inside the cabin and I thought that is a cooler inside firewall. If you look at the diagram it seems to show it connects to something inside firewall. I tried chasing it but not easy unless I take loads off   i am confident pump is good as fluid goes in and it gets soft( steering) but as soon as I turn engine off , loads of bubble come to surface and overflow. When engine is on , fluid level is below minimum but when off it shoots off and thinking it is sucking air in. I suspect aluminium pipe may have a crack line or whole   smoke test with no fluid should be a good start and if needed will remove the pump   In addition, the one going under the engine bay is high pressure line and one directly connecting from pump to resorvoir is return/ low pressure?   finally I searched and suggestion is to use dexron 2 but that is discontinued so bought dexron 3 as all research suggest it is compatible and shouldn’t cause any issues/ blow seals. I bought two liter of dexron 3 motul atf

      Don't worry about. Just don't try to drive hard enough to make boost and you'll be fine.

      Yes. This has already been said. It is a loop of hardline in front of the radiator. Because.... the pump is on the LHS and the steering rack hydraulic connections are where they always are on a RHD steering rack....on the RHS. The high pressure line goes down under the engine, along the crossmember, like it does on all Skylines. Don't just throw expensive braided hoses/other kits at it. Work out what is wrong and fix that.

      Still got the afm on the intake, clamps are shut tight, only loose hose is the one that goes from the j pipe towards the IACV, since it's next to impossible to find a factory hose and the barbs are different sizes (I'm still using clamps on this hose to try and help it seal on the iacv side) I've ordered parts to make up the hotside of the intercooler pipes, I'll plumb it in and see what happens in a few days I suppose The turbo's internally gated, can I just unscrew the tension rod to let the gate open?
