As per above, they have to include GST, even if a wholesaler.

If you don't like the place, dob them into ACCC, they'll get done for that.

I hate the old "we didn't include GST since we thought you'd pay cash" - with my company car i can't claim unless i have a full tax invoice - I'l had a few "disagreements" over this, most recently with a $500 purchse.

Duncan, it's illegal to advertise a price ex GST without stating "plus GST" . It is tax evasion to offer a cash price which doesn't include GST. So if they say "we didn't include GST since we thought you'd paty cash" they are guilty of BOTH tax evasion and false advertising. If they piss you off dob them in to ACCC AND ATO!

Yeh, I spoke to both our CFO And GM regarding legality and they both visited the web page and came to the conclusion that it was in breach of both ATO and Trade Practices act laws.

I know the shop involved has staff that visit this site they might wish to inform their boss, wouldn't want them to get busted even if it really pissed me off.

      Pipe from Greddy FMIC to Greddy intake manifold (RB25)?

      By jacobzking · Posted

      Does anyone sell a pipe that's made to go from the Greddy FMIC kit for ECR33 (RB25DET) to the Greddy intake manifold?

      Not that I know from experience, but in theory you'd want your gate spring to be as close to target pressure as possible, so you'd go with the higher gate spring?

      Before I commit to it as I already have the wastegate off the car, would you change it to the 9psi spring instead of the 12, or whack it back on now and try your suggestion?   Edit: Actually I might just swap the spring and see what the logs say after another few pulls, as we know it's still spiking without the Mac valve in the picture so I need more data without the Mac valve trying to combat the issue.

      Steps to DIY sanding car back ready for respray....

      Sounds good Hmm suppose the main thing is, how much do you care about this car? The filler doesn't make for a very good water barrier lol. If there was a tiny little bit of rust forming now, that in 3 to 5 years time becomes obvious under the paint (starts to bubble up), would it bother you?

      Mistakes were made, my R34 Story

      By Kinkstaah · Posted

      I already have the ability to datalog the voltage... what I can't do is correlate it to what the gauge is showing when I'm looking at the data at a later date. Or something like this. Except getting the oil to 125C+ involves me going 200+kmh at the track so you can imagine this is a little tricky unless I do something like note what the voltage is when I am at the top of 5th gear so I have a point to reference on. Drove car today. O2 still reading richer because hopefully not a leak instead of massive restriction I've introduced. Car really doesn't sound like a LS. It's quite strange. Pulled a bit of fuel out up top. This does potentially explain why my spark plugs looked like the car was running pretty over-rich. If I was tuning it to a ~12.7 which in reality was far richer than that in the past. It will be handy to have the dyno WB to compare my WB to to compare notes that's for sure. At this point I'm happy to just sit in the passenger seat and tune the thing given I've got about 7 million hours on the platform lol.
