  1. what does the rattle sound like - if tinny might be the heat shield
  2. my advice is go see an accountant (a decent one), understand the various things they claim for you based on your income and occupation. then the following year if your situation has not changed some job etc, do it online and base it on the one you have just done, saves you a few bucks. there is also a wealth of info on the ATO website.
  3. we have a winner!! nice photos!
  4. never seen it before and agree I wonder what the return would be for the government keeping a plane in the air and writing a couple of $200 speeding tickets.
  5. im more of a bbq and pie kinda guy!
  6. Just saw this - cant imagine what the apartments are worth and also the strata fee's for maintenance but still very cool. Tad impractical though - you would be in trouble if you needed to leave it a hurry or a fire broke out!! http://www.gizmodo.com.au/2012/09/this-amazing-skyscraper-parks-your-car-in-your-living-room/
  7. ditto - happy to give it crack but cannot be held responsible for sh!tty photos!
  8. just make sure any external attendee's are right across expectations around behaviour etc - ive been out with other forums on cruises and worst I'd seen was a bunch of teenagers trying bake it up in every single gear change. would hate for such a great event to get tarnished by the few. we've always had good events and need to keep the standard up. as for attendance I'm in 100%, got my car in for a retune in the days before so very keen to get it out and stretch it's leg a bit.......
  9. interesting read - keen to understand what else has changed between mk1 & 2. did a search but couldnt find any other threads on it - anybody got a view on the changes?
  10. I'm in +1 for the go pro happy to bring it along Sent from my HTC Velocity 4G using Tapatalk 2
  11. I had a fg which I flipped after the lease expired, then took out the SS-V and settled back on a new FG. V8's have always got the nice note which was appealing but otherwise I thought it was tacky, plastic fantastic with crap seats. Performance was pretty unappealling. The FG (although bias with the lux pack) is a much nicer/refined car, they have got the design right finally (always was a Expensive Daewoo man before I bought my first FG, never liked the older fords). The VE SS looks like a four wheel drive being jacked up so high. Eitherway, its all personal preference and there is some good content in this thread to chew on. go drive them both and figure out which you like the best.
  12. not an expert here- but am thinking you need to tighten the camera up a bit a couple of g's and it goes from front view to side view :sungum: as for your question, I'll leave it to the group !
  13. BTA Motorsports are pretty good on the ZF's as well, just had mine rebuilt there. Ali and his team are good value.
  14. Fair comments - I had very similar issues 3rd->4th on WOT, and then later 5th and 6th were slipping. I had a service and tune which seemed to improve (read mask) it but after a while it all started to give way. Now I've gone the rebuild it feels allot stronger and now booking in for a retune of the ZF to get it running smoothly as the old tune is still compensating for the old issues I had. My two cents, bite the bullet, just rebuild it and save all the hassle with everything else. If its burning out now its only a matter of time before it gets worse.
  15. have just changed my phone and my initial problem seems to have gone away.Original phone was HTC Sensation (good phone but didnt like the car), and now on a HTC Velocity and working perfectly like it used to. hopefully it stays this way. failing this will try to reset it based on the discussion here.
  16. I've always found inbound/outbound numbers are displayed (unless private) on the display, but have never seen contact details/names etc. Would be nice though....
  17. im good for any of the mentioned destinations and routes. I've never done bells line so that's a +1 from me. otherwise lock a date and route in and let's get it rolling!
  18. Put me down as a maybe, will confirm early next month - then its fingers crossed there is some rooms left by this stage......
  19. Back on subject - some info on Noise Test procedures for the EPA if your interested.http://www.ntc.gov.a...estSept2006.pdf
  20. Hi guys - over the last few months my bluetooth mobile call quality is getting progressively worse. I have no issues hearing the other person but the people I'm talking to complain of excessively loud background/road noise. Any body seen this before?
