Why is Victoria also the state with the most local/militant unions as well?

Just out of curiousity, who do you think are the militant unions? There probably are some, but doesn't mean they all have to be laballed as the same.

I'm a unionist (I'm an electrician, so a member of the Electrical Trades Union), and they make sure they do everything by the book. Unionism had a bad light a few decades back, but now they are a very proffesional run organisation, who also look after each and every member.

I did a significant amount of work on the the eastern water recycling proposal and I know a lot of people in the power industry and various water authorities and I can say without a doubt that its the biggest load of crap! To say nothing of the cost issues when it comes down to it the water saved will be sent to industry, a small amount to Geelong and pretty much all of the rest will sent down the rivers to boost flow. How will that help us? What do we get for the billions of dollars and in increased cost of electricity? Nothing!

The tool has also promised to spend 3 billion dollars in the next 5 years upgrading the easter treatment plant. 99% of the people in the water and power industries know his promises on these issues are a total load of crap.

On the other hand Ted is a multi millionaire isent he with investments in so many companies? I can see his decisions if he wins just done to help line his posckets more.

I belong to the working class, i used to vote for labour but now i dont' believe in any of them at all so i VOTED for the GREEN.

I voted for the GREEN now i thought about it i'm like F**K me, what if they want FOUR CATs in every cars to keep the GREEN GREENER!

Oh well, too late :rofl:.

Dont' forget to pick up today Herald sun, free DVD copy of Making Poverty History concert.

You guys only have to vote for politicians every now and then. I have to live with one :rofl: And after seeing all the rubbish first hand, I simply never enrolled and dont plan to vote. Its a dirty scummy game to be in IMO.

Martin Kingham's mob is pretty bad, not as bad as the BLF where though (I had a number of run in's with them.) I have no issues with the principle behind union's, it's some of the policies that they have that I have problems with.

vote labour!!

liberal wants more cops on the roads!

True, they want a more visible police presence, not hiding in unmarked cars and behind speed camera's. They are also going to introduce a more realistic tolerance to speeding, and give cops more discretion when it comes to either warning or fining drivers.

and when you get your defect you'll know who to thank ;)

Yep, myself for driving a vehicle with defective items, common sense suggests that.

Although there may be others who believe the Police or the government are to blame for them breaking the law, I say good for them! ;)

if your sense thinks that having an exhaust/bov etc qualifies as a offence that justifies a $$$ penalty, then you obviously think that these modifictions seriously warrant a car unsafe or "defective" so as to endanger your well being.....and so therefore you must be grateful that bracks and his new laws step in to protect you from harm...... ;)

    • @GTSBoy yeah i know it was not the "great" idea but it is and option...but i think i will stay on no BoV rather then trying to make it work with "half" this and that. But that GReddy FV2 is cool...i like that you can make it like stock if you want (and have/make the custom pipes) For other thanks! it was alot of information. But for the sound...a dont rly "like" both of them...specialy if they are loud...but if i "must" choose i would rather have little whooosh rather than sutututu with no BoV....BUT that is what is i gonna get. So for the all info i gather. In my case:  No BoV is not that bad cuz it is stock...and iam used to put N/clutch right after rpms are around 1000 so it should be ok...just need to avoid "big" drops. But i do not have the engine in the car so i do not really know how "bad" or good it is. But as i had that little test drive it looked ok. The atmo BoV should be worse car would dump to much fuel specialy between the shifts...so without proper tune/ECU i dont want that. BUT with that...car should drive ok with no problems right? (i do like there is less piping wih this solution) 🙂 
    • Usually an RB20 won't stay in closed loop idle anyway. The O2 sensor gets too cold, stops swinging.
    • They aren't, but it depends on what interests you about an R32-R34. If it's the front engine I6 turbo that tunes well with a manual transmission an E92 335i 6MT is so incredibly cheap. You can get a super clean one for 20-25k USD tops. Put an LSD in it, tune it, have fun with it. If it's the general idea of AWD + turbo and a manual transmission the 996 Turbo is absolutely much more expensive, it's less practical but it's also basically a complete track-ready car from the factory. At least the Mezger doesn't have heaps of oil control issues. And in the US the 996 Turbo and R33 GTR are roughly the same price these days. 996 maybe a bit more now that the hype has abated for old Skylines here.
    • these are not the same
    • Best kept secret for seized bolts is crayons... Heat the sucker up with a torch, and push/melt crayon into it. Works a wonder. See if I can go 2 from 2 for you on how to get your bolts out...
