are these the same?? this car is currently at gran turismo in melbourne.. I believe the x-owner is some guy called ibrahim and believe ben from racepace, and the boys from (Dr_Drfit) XTC may know him personally.. so he could tell you exactly what they are.

It's more like every 10years, but is subject to so many variables.. Risk prevention: 1) No Tenant: Landlords Insurance - CGU is one company that's offer's landlord insurance, depending on how many properties you have it can be as low as $99per year.. covers vary, but roughly covers you for malicious damage, theft, and tenants doing a runner, and they rental coverage for up to 13weeks. 2) Interest Rates: we always budget 2% over the current market rates, regarless if it's a development project or another investment property. 3) Property Maintenance: "well that's not a risk" that's included in your budget.. everythinf else is covered under Home & Contents or Landlords Insurance. 4) Choosing the right location: well my line of work revolves around property, each quarter ourbank managers arange a meeting with a company called charter keck cramer The give advice to state/federal governments & reserve banks.. so they are the best in the biz (they also have some free info for download from there site. However based on our needs (and these will differ from everyone esle, so go seek a professionals opinion) generally speaking about the "Melbourne" market, you'd like to stay within 7-13k's of the CBD. However Melbourne's CBD appartments are a no no at the moment and docklands is not so bad if you're happy to wait around 10-15years to reap your rewards .. simply "demand vs supply" the only thing docklands has for it is > keyword > "water views".

Tryed a search but didn't have much luck, can anyone point me to a site or tell me the difference between the NUR Spec R34 GTR and the standard models.. Also I am right in saying the only difference between Mspec & Stock Vspecs is the softer suspension and leather interior...

Hi aybee, WTF :confused: you're numbers are all wrong... and taken out of contex the 4% is only based on the rental return compared to the property value, it does not take into the equasion, your tax benifits, ongoing property appreciation (equity), etc etc... so it actually equates to much much more than that.. OK.. I'd like to see your example comparison starting with a savings of something reasonable like $40K, over a period of 5 years... your fund vs a property worth $200K.. because you have honestly lost me with your numbers they just don't make sense at all.

Hi aybee, don't wanna get into a biyatch fight..but??? :confused: :confused: :confused: I think you may need to double check your post... that definately doesn't make any sense to me at least. EDIT: Ok I had to read it about 5-6 times.. My reply is simple: You have to be kidding!... You want to borrow money to invest in a fund?? you're borrow at 6,7 ~% (if you're lucky) and what security will they lend you the money on?? all that for a return of 10% deduct all your fees, interest, tax on CGT~ to end up with 1% maybe 2% profit????????? CPI moves quicker than that every 3months.. and how did you get 50% accumulating interest?

Let me work this out.. 80K.. Investment with ING 8K return p/a (that's if this return doesn't fluctuate) less fees and charges Deduct your tax from that 8K return (30%) = $2400 Federal Tax Total: $5600.. hmm so really your making 7% return not that good I say, (This is all rough and vage, I'm not an accountant, that's why we pay them to work this out) Invest 80K in bricks and mortar: Based on a deposit of 20% or more to avoid mortgage insurance, means you can buy something upto $400K... Lets say, it's a spanking brand new property (your already infront by saving aroun $20,000 on stamp duty) 1. rent it out.. at ~$350pw work a little harder and chip in the monthy balance around ~$200pw 2. over the next 5 years you can claim back your depreciation (dunno exactly) but probably around another $50-100K... 3. by then your property would have increased in market value by at say 20-30%, which means you've made around another $80-120K on your initial investment... 4. And finally you can claim back all that interest & depreciation rather than ~paying it to gov. 5. after a couple of years and a little EQUITY MATE, you can buy another one, and another one, and another, all on EQUITY MATE (and ofcourse) your ability to meet the repayments. Bit busy to exactly work it out the ROI.. but over a 5 year period I'm guessing including your tax benefits, and EQUITY MATE, on an initial $80K investment your return would be at least 100-150K on top of your $80 = Total 180-230K... Let me see ING do that... you would have made around $25K with ING.. So I'm not sure I would be exactly "relaxed" knowing my money is with them. If I were single, and worried about the "future" wife who's only in it for the $$$ and laying her hands on all this I would set up a Pty Ltd Company as a trustee for a family trust with my father/mother as the appointee.. PS: being a new property there is also the ability to claim back the GST component out of the initial $400K ~around $37K hmmmm. But again, I'm just bord and ranting full on crap, and this could all be just a load of bollocks written by some internet warrior like me. so it's best you just ignore this post cause I'm not responsible for noone.. go and see a proffessional.

Thought I start a fresh thread as the other thread started getting too messy. All the other parts have been sold, and what's remaining is the following; 1) Custom Front Pipes twin 2.5in into a Single 3in $350.00 2) Adjustable Standard GTR Cam Gears $220.00 (yes for both) 3) HKS Pods with pipes straight bolt on in replace of stock air box $160.00 Been a little lazy with taking pics, but I promise I'll organise some asap. All parts are in Melbourne, will deliver interstate, will accept COD "on the condition of a very minimal deposit to aleast cover returns if the buyer doesn't pick up the item and it gets sent back." ...Hope that covers everything. PM or Email for me info.

All parts have been sold.. Except for : - Aftermarket Front Pipes + have some other goodies added which I'll start a new thread Adjustable Cam Gears HKS (Mushroom type) Pods This thread is getting a little messy, so I started a New thread with some more parts here...

Yeh... I'm with you Butler! Definately a fake. A bit like those UFO sighting vids ha! :jk: SK.. for us less fortunate could you translate that in english Either way, that's very impressive. But I guess like most things technical, we will never know the secrets to that car.

Uuuuuhmmm... no wonder the chicks were smiling like that.. "Take a look at the gear stick on that koenigsegg....WTF"... that puts the ol' Vdub & early porsches to shame

:whip:

that's amazing!!! how some people spend more time typing a "flame post" then a simple reply to the original thread :confused: ... appamjb , yes greenline are real! Most of us here use greenline successfully, there's also another company called www.nengun.com which is an SAU sponsor... so probably try nengun first.

Steve is right, cam gears, pfc on stock motor will get an easy 250-270kw at the wheels on 1 - 1.1bar~ using stock turbos.. You'd do them both at the same time... saves yourself the $$$ of paying to get it tuned twice!.. whilst your doing cam gears probably a good idea to change your cambelt aswell. Excuse the free plug I've got a set for sale they're genuine cam gears modded to be adjustable.

Snowwy, PM me your email address.

snowwy & bass, the GT2 is twice as much as a GT3? right? Regardless, whilst you two sit there biyatching over the GT2 & GT3, I'll be pondering your a$$'s with a GT.. *cough* carrera GT That is. EDIT: That's if money is no object ofcourse, and we are just talking about a wishlist.

thanks for the offer bass, we have someone there already... by the way your mates initials aren't A.K ??? Edit: Bass, get your mate to hook you up with one of those drives days (if he hasn't already) out coldstream way.. trust me you'll have an absolute ball :burnout:

Ok Ronin.. maybe most of them except that one.. Initially the car was expected to be called a CLE so we ordered a set of those plates aswell, I think vicroads are having a ball with half the plates we've ordered over the years... this tuesday we're going to the launch of the new 911 at porsche Melbourne, who knows we might have a skitzo attack and consider a 911 instead :slap:

T517zGTR, a couple of sau members have these turbos, JAGR33 & Ph1, I've for a drive with JAGR33, and yes they're alot laggier than the 2530's, but damn they hit hard. I have a comparison thread somewhere in one of my threads. JAGR33 ended up getting Ben from Racepace in Melbourne to sort the lag out, and so far seems alot happier. Perhaps give Ben a call, a see what he suggest, Ben also built Ph1's car..

markr34gtr is running these in his gtr... making around the 440rwkw and boost is coming around 5ish... do a search he just ran a 10.9 qtr

Aaaaahh Daniel... I'm guessing you're sicilian or calabrese "That hard head of yours :D".. always a BMW man. You think benz are just cruisers ha, let me know what you think of this "upcoming" cruiser from mercedes?? PS: We've got number 1 on order for the AMG version (hopefully 65 not 55) don't bother ordering VIC plates, we have them all CLS.1 + CLS.55 + CLS.65

Robo, before you start modding have you checked out http://www.rs6.com/ I remember reading what these (i think swedes) do to the S4's & RS6.. and damn they know how to make them move.

Geoff, we can't wait either.. "they maybe using the artwork progress over a couple of issues in some power boat magazine" Morgs, the 500 isn't the most powerful of engines, and in something that way 2tonne, we wouldn't be getting anywhere in a hurry... it was just one of those spontanious trains of thought (which happen quite often unfortunately) But the revival thanks (Kris) sewid, brought back a reality check... so for now anyway, we're back on the 34 train...choo choo

G0DF4Th3R - the only thing that CL is missing in your pic are some "Autosalon babes" and some decent plates.. hmmm how about PIMPIN By the way, you're (mate/or not??) nicholas with the Silver 34 tuned by that guy from japan, was one that I added to the list of time wasters... no hard feelings. Geoff check your email, some update pics on the boat.

...geez this confuses me. Dunno this difs between 34 & 33's, but with our GTR, when we replace the clutch (which I think was a PUSH Type) Ogura Twin Plate, and the 33 are PULL type, we bought the PUSH Type conversion direct from Nissan about $300. Apparantly a 32 box is PUSH, so that could have also been an alternative.
