Newcastle sux ass!! I had to live there for 8 months and it was bogan central!! It has changed a bit since then, but the bogan part is the same. It is like Summernats only every night!! If you won't do fuli sic skids for them, they will pelt your car with bottles (some not empty!!)

I think you should stay where you are happiest, and if Brisbane fulfills your needs with friends and job, why move. This whole moving to further your career gambit is why so many people are unhappy or divorced. I personally love Brisbane and I have lived in Sydney, Melbourne and Newcastle for work. Unless it is going to make you a millionaire, I would stay put.

I closed my business down on the Gold Coast after 8 Years to go work for a Company based in Sydney, it was crazy money doing stainless work on Refrigertated Mining Skids. It sent me all over N.S.W out Bush and in City but I didn't last 8 months, I had to chuck it in and come home, After a while the cash didn't mean shit and just wanted to get back to friends, family and my dog :(

ok guys i thought i better update this. i am not going anywhere. after sitting down ansd weighing up the pros and cons, it just wasnt worth the extra money to move down there. at the end of the day being with my family means to much to me to move away.

thanks for everyone opinions, i appreciate everyone of them

Ive been in the same boat..

Unless you got one of those traveling bugs where you cant stay in one place longer then 1 month then i would hang where you are now.

I mean i have changed my position 3 times in the past year, however its in the governement and they shuffle you around more then cards.. But you get to see and do new stuff and move around a little ( within a 100km radius of your place of residence)

If your keen for extra bucks//new position why not ask them to move you sideways//up?

But yeah.. if you hadnt of made a decision i was going to tell you to write up a "pros & cons" list.

I think i would miss my family and friends after a while.. sms and email does not equate to hugs and sore heads from drinkin with them in the flesh :D

    • All 3 I guess. The car came with the JASI Aero 4 door Type R Full Kit unpainted so this was one thing at the top of my list to complete then I noticed there were body panels parts for this kit so i picked them up along with some black mesh to fill in the front bumper and front side air vents. car is at a paint and body shop atm completing this work. Next I will be addressing the internal bells and whistles, great summer project I can do with the kids.  full interior removal - ,boys car sound deadening - pads and spray ,boys stereo, sound, lighting - Big 3, GTT or bigger alternator ,kids head lining - dye black add star lighting mod ,daughter. That's it for the next 5-6 months. I have some motor maintenance  work i have to plan out. oil filter relocation, gaskets, mounts. beyond that, mind is starting to turn over if i can use a DET intake plenum, block off turbo ports & pipe in a air intake.      
    • roller coaster of a ride. Alarm system was removed & main harness was repaired where possible. still no fix just random successful starts. moved on to the replacing the ignition switch and relay. well all this troubleshooting & repair has been going on, the car is at a paint and body shop being pushed around. Ive been going down there on odd days after work to get it sorted.     
    • 5th November if you want to come out for a spin wakfield
    • PROBLEM WAS BROKEN COOLANT SENSOR!!! Replaced with a new one and its running mint.
    • I think he was only proposing to use the wire, not the sender. Simply because it runs from the right place to the right place. Personally, I wouldn't hack up the factory wiring like that. I'd just lay in the Defi loom.
