Im not really hunting for a house as such just if one i like comes up i will buy it, thinking about going out and starting my own business next year so i could use the money for that too, either way is good

I missed the one i wanted because some DICKHEAD paid over asking price for it when we were in negotiations to get it for 50k under asking price we were going to get it too as it had been on the market for about 6 months and the seller wanted it gone, I was literally gob smacked by this idiot then i realised why Australian homes are so over priced, because we have too many uneducated idiots in this country that managed to strike it rich!

So yeah after that i became a bit jaded and stuck to the share market

Hahaha... actually if you did invest on shares 1yr ago, you'll probably be one of those lucky ones that strike rich. Its now when the cash rich people gets richer. If I hadnt bought the house and car and got married, maybe I can be like 1 of them. Its ridicules how much share has recovered since.

My company share was sitting at 0.4c when I bought them but had to sell all at 0.6 because or the property and wedding. Now its 1.7. The other one I was looking at is Centro Group. I think lowest back then was around 0.07c and now its above 0.3c. Gotta start saving up for the next crisis.

:cheers:

My best investments over the last few years have been

Rinker $3.30 to $18.50

NAB $25 to $32 in one day! this was the day when the rumours of the GFC started I bought some extra at $25 then sold the whole bundle at $32 then kept the cash aside and rebought when they hit $20 and let them grow for the rest of the year to what ever they are now, i pretty much go 500 free shares out of that bit of playing around!

and Arrow which has gone from like 50c to $3 somthing

Martin: ??? Is it so hard to understand issue I have is holding boost and not not enough fuel?

Coro drive is shit today for anyone thats going inbound. But the flyover bridge outbound is sweet. That'll make a perfect fly over entry for you Colin. Dont bother with those small speed bump!

Colin: I already know of someone who did in Perth like I've mentioned. These are not track car thats subjected to constant abuse. 20k 30k and 50k is a lot of difference. And you said anyone you know end up spending more money than what the car is worth for that kinda build, what cars are they? Remember this is NUR we're talking about and stock price is 80-90k. You're saying they'll spend 100k on it? And I'm not saying you any 34gtr can do it for that price tag.

I'm not saying you can't do it for under that money but there is more to a car than just power. You could buy all second hand gear and do it for under 10k but it would be a p ig to drive and probably blow up after 2 months. There are countless examples of people spending 100k or more modding a car. Check out the projects forum and have a look at Tangomatts R34. Going back to that black 34. I guarantee you couldn't buy a Nur and then build it to the same quality as that one for under 50k.

my biggest fail however was chosing telstra which hovered around the same money for the 3 years i owned them.....over BHP which was $9 somthing at the time :S

Ugh that is epic.

Its on topic, so I guess I'd better :)

...I need to get into shares

Yeah I'll invest when I've got some decent coin to. If you invest f**k all then your return is going to be f**k all is my theory.

how can i help :):)

you get shared around far too much

    • HFM BM57 has a "bad" knee point, IIRC. It's not the same thing as the later R chassis MC.
    • The ATTESSA is functionally identical to R34; there were a bunch of JDM models that continued ATTESSA including Fuga/Q70, Skyline/Q50, Cima etc as an option. All with Auto only and I think mostly for snow regions. AFAIK there were no AWD VR30DDTT sold in Australia - it is on my to do list to check regs for racing a LHD car in Targa/ATR/AASA/CAMS events because if I can get the auto to work it would be interesting to run a 4wd car The Ecuteck TCM tuning is the same model as their ECU tuning, they already have it for R35 and Dose's favourite, BMW. You buy "points" to allow your computer to be tuned, buy either a bluetooth (phone app) or bluetooth+USB+Key (phone and PC) dongle, and pay for a tune that will be locked to your tuner ( ). You can also access the tuning software yourself but 1. it is mega expensive and 2. these computers have a billion parameters that intersect, so how could you ever spend enough time on it to get a decent result.
    • Or, is it a case of what it is like owning an R series Skyline? NFI what the previous owner has done or fiddled with... Ha ha ha After reading through this thread, I went on a bit of a research about the Q50/Q60. Now I'm quite intrigued by them! Is the AWD in them more like a WRX where it's always AWD, or is it more like the ATTESSA in the GTRs? By the sound of this TCU tuning, this sounds like a case of someone has made some real software for it, and you just need the right piece of hardware, and then you license that specific vehicle/TCU. Or is this a case of the software will be really expensive so only a few tuners have it, and you still have to pay a license per vehicle?
    • By popular demand.. it was a coil. Got my hands on 1 new OEM coil, replaced with the one that made the less noise difference when I unplugged it while the car was running and started the car up. No stutter and the engine light was gone. I guess I’ll buy the other 5 they have lol
    • No, code 21 is very straightforward. It can only be the things described in that diagnostic flow. In fact it has no way of knowing that the spark plug resistance is out of spec.
