Mugabetown - Whoretownin' At It's Worst.


Recommended Posts

My goals at the moment are a fully paid off house in 10 years time...

And if it's not paid off, It's because I've bought a second one.

if u are able to achieve that Marie, I will somehow find a way to marry u and become your trophy hubby

If my requests that I made at work are met in some way, it's actually 100% possible on my own to pay off my debt, save a deposit, and pay off a house all in a 8 year window.

Please note, I'm not aiming like so many of my friends to borrow to my absolute maximum and live in the most ritsy suburb like most of the people I know, who are all up struggle street and causing endless arguments with their partners. I'm looking to do it the smart way.

Buy a house in the $350K or less bracket, with a 20% deposit.

Yes, it will take some hard yards, yes it will mean not being able to mod my cars left right and centre, but 10 years from now, I'll have a disposable income.

But then again, my goal set may drastically change. LOL, but this is the current goal I'm currently working to, and I'm already clearing my debts with a higher repayment than what it will cost me to pay off a $500 000 loan in 30 years ;)

im looking to do it differently.

similar price bracket, but near on 50% deposit, because smaller loan means less interest to the bank.

Offset account also does this while leaving you with liquid funds in case of emergency or unicor being purchasable at the right price

sounds very positive mate. Theses days if u are able to be disciplined and save / make greater repayments towards existing loans, you can extinguish home loans within half the normal time.

Your last paragraph is probably the most realistic one as things will always change with some causing goals to also be changed. Whether they are positive or adverse in nature.......only you will know

but if the money is easily spendable, i may just spend it. easier if i cant touch it as easily.

It had flecks of what seems to be black tyre rubber/compound all over it and was pretty dirty. I am convinced its last outing involved two rear shredded tyres lol

by whom ;) ?

Debt shop. Move money around to lowest possible repayment figures. 0% credit cards and don't borrow anymore for a while. It reduces debt levels and increases good repayment history. Serviceable debt isn't the enemy, it's just people never plan for things like: what if I lost my job tomorrow.

    • Yes correct. Also, I'd avoid applying it to soft paint (however I doubt you'll ever have to deal with it in practice). So any paint that hasn't fully hardened, could be a 1k paint that never fully hardened or it could be a 2k paint that was laid down thick and hasn't yet fully hardened. 
    • Bit of an update to this one. Having some issues on the dyno that held us back (boost spiking) and I want to pass some info over you guys and see what you think is wrong with my setup. The current readout on this dyno is 462rwkw on a low reading dyno so keep in mind it is a real world 500rwkw setup on a hub dyno. Don't read into the power figure too much as a sign of the issue. The short and curly of it is: 2.8 Litre Racepace build RB25 NEO N/A Head with VCT (internally standard however ) Borgwarner EFR 8474  Turbosmart 50mm Straight Gate + Mac valve 6Boost Manifold 4" dump to full 4" exhaust (nil restrictions) Wastegate plumbed back in and all angles in the exhaust system are acceptable and not too sharp. GFB SV52 BOV in cooler piping  Turbosmart BOV in EFR Housing   The issue we are having is it comes onto full boost for example at 4000rpm and spikes to 24/25psi, before dropping down to 17psi before slowly rising back up to the target boost of 23psi. It was extremely uncontrollable and the tuner actually had to ramp in boost progrssively with each 1000rpm on each boost setting we selected to try and reduce the amount of spiking. Sometimes we would see a drop of 10psi from the peak at the beginning of the run, to the low, until it took the next 500-1000rpm to stabilise back up to the target boost. The tuner is pretty confident that the straight gate is just a poorly designed product and leaks too much boost upon cracking the gate open and theres no way to fix it other than going to a poppet valve. He's also confient theres no ignition breakdown or floating valves. The fueling is extremely stable as well. Turbo speed is somewhere around the 109,000rpm area. The spanner in the works for me is that prior to this Borgwarner and StraightGate, the car was tuned on -5 twins at a diferent tuner, and he also had issues controlling the boost with it spiking around the same rpm range, so to me this sounds like the same issue and it can't be anything on the turbo side as this was all changed and I think the behaviour is extremely similar, if not the same. We also removed the mac valve and did a run on wastegate pressure and it still spiked and had the same behaviour. My thoughts on possibilities are: Boost Leak VCT Cam Gear isn't reliably activating consistently - (On this however, we did a run with the VCT disabled and the boost still spiked) Turbosmart BOV is not handling the boost? However this seems unlikely to not be able to handle 20psi. I have a couple of logs that I can't make sense of if anybody knows how to read them and can obtain further logs of other parameters if they are not enough, happy to pay for anyones time. The dyno readout with the power figure is the most recent last week. The other picture is from two weeks prior to that where we couldn't break 400kw (we removed the cat), however the issue of the boost control persisted. @Lithium @Piggaz @burn4005 @GTSBoy @discopotato03 I've tagged those that were quite active in recent pages here, no disrespect to those that know turbos well but I missed tagging.

    • I recently purchased a 2018 Infiniti Q60, which has an SD card navigation map. I can see my system has options for real time traffic updates etc, and am wondering if there is something I can purchase to get this working? I can see there are at least updated maps for USA and Canada, but nothing for Australia. Surely Infiniti took changing road systems and city expansions into account when they decided to use an inbuilt navigation over Android Auto/Apple Car Play, or are we doomed to drive on streets that don't exist in the navigation system if you drive to a new area?
    • Luckily I didn't put in etch primer as I just found out it's not compatible with my body filler lol. Also just need to sand the panel anywhere between 150-400 grit so I'm in the clear there. It does say to not apply to soft old paint, I assume that means paint that is flaking, peeling,etc
