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...... ;)

    • Thanks guys,  Yeah I should at least have them dynoed, at least then I know what I've got as a starting point.  The springs on these are hard as rocks. I vaguely remember Russman saying he was going to sell the shocks to me with the rocks fitted, as he was keeping the softer springs for his new setup.  I didn't click at the time but of course that was to let me know the shock/spring wouldn't be matched.  I also remember pricing up new springs around 2014-15, but, house, money etc. it never happened. So that was another reason to have them rebuilt. I have rebuilt the forks on many motorcycles so I think I could handle the seals on these easily enough, but getting the valving right would be a rabbit hole I cbf exploring.  Duncan, interesting to hear RP was tuning these back then. I might give them a call.  In the mean time I have been busy fitting sway bars. The Whiteline rear sway bar I purchased 15 years ago finally got fitted, along with the Whiteline front bar that showed up last week. Just waiting on new links for the front sway bar to finish that off.  And my spare set of advan AVS VS5's should be back from the powder coaters in a Pearl White finish sometime this week, with a set of Hankook RS4's lined up for fitting.  And then I just have all the suspension bushes to do. A comprehensive kit is on the way... Lots to do before the Ararat hill climb. Cheers guys 🍻   
    • Nice car! I’m glad folks in the US have gotten past the FnF and are buying real cool cars like the 260RS I was with a bunch of mates in Portland about a year ago and spotted a green Stagea (just a regular 2.5T AWD) parked about 2 blocks away and they were like “a what?” So I made a bet with them for a round of beers and said “ok one of you run down there and tell me if the steering wheel is on the correct side” 5 mins later the American comes trudging back up the hill and goes “he’s right guys. Ok what beer do you want?”
    • Should replace OR drop the tank, give it's good clean. Might be worth replacing that entire fuel level/pump/cradle thing with this: https://frenchysperformancegarage.com/products/fpg-s13-180sx-r32gtst-single-pump-hanger-kit-billet-hat-6-v3-fpg-089?gQT=2  
    • Thank you so much for the help
    • Yes it is ATF. I quote @Duncan "it takes a good synthentic auto trans fluid like Castrol Transmax Z" It's not a diff. It's a transfer case. Totally different thing. Yes, fluid will come out the sender hole. No you do not really need to drain it. Just pull the old, quickly poke the new, clean up and top up. But realistically, you should probably take the opportunity to change it anyway.
