100k combined will not provide a comfortable living if you wish to live someone remotely close to cbd, not have financial stress over bills & food, have a couple of cars still go out for dinner here and there 100k before tax is fk all these days.

obviously everyone has different opinion of 'comfortable' - Tony the tax man run numbers on take home per month after tax at 100k combined?

100k combined is more take home than a 100k single income, though.

That's the kicker, though - so many young couples these days think they can live close to the CBD or in the suburbs where they grew up...borrow way too much for it at low interest rates and then struggle to get by when shit hits the fan. It used to be that most young couples would be happy to move out to fringe suburbs and start a family out there. Feel like expectations are changing! Maybe just the people I hear from...

We've also got a lot more material shit to buy these days than we did 20 years ago, when it was really just a car and a house...maybe a boat.

Damn straight we do.

I'm doing the opposite.... Gonna get a place in south east for ten years, then move further easy on a bit of land as I get older... f**k city life. I grew up in one.

just got current powerbill today...

1422 for a quarter... :wacko:

in b4 NO there is not a drug growing area.

Can you explain why your bill is so high...

Do you leave running 5 x 100inch plasmas all day on with the lights on 24/7?

I started getting meat once a week from a wholesaler, and fruit and veg from a green grocer. both on a different day on my way home from work. wipes 10-20% off my grocery bill.

No home phone/line rental - dollars in the pocket.

Turn off power points and standby items, saves a fair bit of electricity.

Request water saving shower head in rental - saves the dollars.

Run heater or A/C only when more than one person is home and only at night. Keep blinds closed-ish mostly through summer.

Certainly adds up.

Just want to experiment, but just realised that the gopro case is completely sealed.... unless I get the drill out.

yes you have to drill it, doesnt bother me though dont care bout the waterproof part. and if i did i'd just buy another case

    • From the pictures I have when doing the job the flywheel is the same diameter, I don't think they're playing weird tricks like putting weights at the outer diameter to increase flywheel inertia or anything like that. The OEM flywheel is definitely heavier, but it's not a huge difference. Quoted weight savings of the clutch is 2 kg so I can't imagine the flywheel being lighter than ~7 kg. Kind of regret not weighing it before the clutch went into the car but as far as driveability goes I have no complaints.
    • HKS trigger kit should be very easy to integrate with a Link. It's a 36-2 crank trigger. Hard part is finding the motivation to take off the timing belt and everything on the front of the engine to install it. You also need to cut out a hole in the oil pump housing so the sensor can read the trigger wheel. Changing out the cam sensor for a 24 tooth setup is probably good enough but as others have mentioned depending on what underlying assumptions are changed it becomes more of a problem. Reading the crank state off of the cam is an abstraction that works in the general case, but if you have an edge case it makes less and less sense. There is a GTX2860 gen 2 that can take a compact 5 bolt housing so it's direct bolt on but I'm not 100% sure of what's involved. Peak compressor efficiency drops off a bit on these turbos vs -5s, 77% vs 73% but you get way, way wider region of operation. The -5s have a really strange surge line in their compressor map that is all over the place. If you think the hot side on the -5s aren't open enough you can try the Tomei T550B turbos which a local tuner seems to be happy with:
