Officially a home owner

Suddenly I have an opinion that the current generation of first home buyers are all a pack of entitled and whinging layabouts who should suck it up about the ever increasing prices and stop buying smashed avocado

That r33 gtr will never be finished now

My last rental had ancient wine stashed under the house. There was 1 foot of water under the house from poor drainage. The snails ate the labels off the bottles. f**king old Italians... Noobs forever.

 

 

 

 

A small house in the south east on my income - 80% LVR / no LMI, 50% stamp duty

Small as in...no backyard. But when your fence is a giant gate with acres of park land behind it that you don't have to maintain...

A friend of mine bought a two storey townhouse in Mt Waverley a year or two ago...the number 8...for 800k iirc. He put a bid in not expecting to win cause there were Chinese buyers present...nek minut

He is Singaporean though, so we still laugh that he probably looked like "that guy" on the day to everyone else

So a massive gate and massive sliding/folding glass doors across the whole back of the place?

It seems like a fine stage from which to show off your efforts in the gym, at least thats the first reason you would want it that comes to mind.

small side garden I see to work on.

 

the empty lot next door is that part of the park or will some-one build on it?

    • And make sure the belts are tightened appropriately too.
    • They care about emissions, and cost the most. Save weight where possible, and make manufacturing easier. Less material also let's the engine transfer heat to water quicker, and bring the engine up to temp quicker, better for emissions and getting them past their warranty period.
    • I was under the impression the reason why OEMs are going with solutions like relatively thin "right-sized" cylinder walls with technologies like PTWA and open deck is because they care a lot about whatever marginal knock margin benefits they get from that vs the structural rigidity benefits of a closed deck block and thicker cylinder walls. I also see some weird stuff like plastic inserts in the water jacket around the cylinders to try and equalize cylinder wall temperatures. re: the PRP blocks and heads at the end of the day it's hard to know what is and isn't going to work there, just have to see what the initial buyers say about it.
    • Which is why I didn't mention that hardness testing, and specifically mentioned the bore and deck thickness testing. Yeah, not really. The bore temperature will be a lot more even around the top half inch or so, where the material distribution is dominated by the deck, and which is the only place where the bore surface temperature heating any gas in the cylinder is likely to have any effect on detonation. Think about it. Another inch or so down the bore, you might have a hotter spot. The gas there might get a bit hotter, then the piston rises squeezes that gas away from there at high speed and mixes it with other gas from nearby. Instant dilution of the problem. I'd be surprised if it was an issue at any time other than in racing engines or OEM dev engines being run at the ragged edge of tuning. Say what now?
    • https://dsportmag.com/the-tech/education/engine-tech-material-hardness-testing/ The PRP testing on block hardness I'm not sure how much it actually can be trusted. The thinner cylinder walls on RBs is a bit of a problem vs 2JZ but it really depends on the design goal. Siamesed cylinder bores like a 2JZ cause uneven cylinder wall temps too, which means a bit of distortion induced by that + the hotspot can affect knock margin. Something that actually gives me a bit of pause with the PRP block, whether super thick cylinder walls are going to keep it from being drop-in compatible on an otherwise OEM rebuild.
