and claim the costs on tax aswell? :sorcerer:

Yeah, sif not use tax to your advantage and exploit it as much as possible.

As Kerry Packer said towards the government during an inquiry "I can tell you you’re not spending it that well that we should be donating extra!" lol.

only thing is, u gotta know what u can and cant claim on, and how u go about claiming it

like just recently, i was thinking about importing some 'performance parts', registering a business name, ABN and then claiming on that. would that be feasable?

That's what an accountant is for. I just summarize my shit and do my log books then give it to him and they do the rest.

In terms of what I get back on the car side of things, it can be around 92%...

I'm not sure Re: ABN, someone will know. I would assume you would need to prove you some how need your car for work related things, which I'm not sure how you would.. Plus you would need to be working on a work contract base, using your own ABN. With the business name thing EG: Your setting up what would be a "business" I guess.. Be more effort for what its worth, plus you would have to show figures.

I'm no accountant, I only know about my own case, so unless you get into property I'll be no help to you.

To cut it very short with the information you've provided, no. Because you'd be claiming them as business expenses, offsetting them against the business's profit, and seen as your business would actually make no profit, you would not have anything to offset against.

You will also unlikely be able to offset the expenses against your own income unless they qualify, which they won't unless you work in a specific field.

The key with tax is to claim things you wouldn't even think of to get the maximum refund, to then spend on whatever you want. Things like pens, diaries, phone expenses, fuel, insurance, etc, etc...the list goes on. It would take to much time and effort to go through it, go see an accountant and make sure you claim everything you can without having to prove it (unless you can actually prove it). You'll be suprised at all the things you can claim without proof.

Woot for specialising in Tax law...maximum benifits for me...

Unfortunately not taxable for everyone, depends on circumstances, primarily your job. Believe it or not, the ATO website is a good starting point for what you can/can't claim.

      After market rear camber arm adjustment

      By Duncan · Posted

      Then, shorten them by 1cm, drop the car back down and have a visual look (or even better, use a spirit level across the wheel to see if you have less camber than before. You still want something like 1.5 for road use. Alternatively, if you have adjustable rear ride height (I assume you do if you have extreme camber wear), raise the suspension back to standard height until you can get it all aligned properly. Finally, keep in mind that wear on the inside of the tyre can be for incorrect toe, not just camber

      I know I have to get a wheel alignment but until then I just need to bring the rear tyres in a bit they're wearing to the belt on the inside and brand new on the outside edge. I did shorten the arms a bit but got it wrong now after a few klms the Slip and VDC lights come on. I'd just like to get it to a point where I can drive for another week or two before getting an alignment. I've had to pay a lot of other stuff recently so doing it myself is my only option

      You just need a wheel alignment after, so just set them to the same as current and drive to the shop. As there are 2 upper links it may also be worth adding adjustable upper front links at the same time; these reduce bump steer when you move the camber (note that setting those correctly takes a lot longer as you have to recheck the camber at each length of the toe arm, through a range of movement, so you could just ignore that unless the handling becomes unpredictable)

      I got adjustable after market rear camber arm to replace the stock one's because got sick of having to buy new rear tyres every few months. Can anyone please let me know what the best adjustment length would be. I don't have the old ones anymore to get measurements. I'm guessing the stock measurement minus a few mm would do it. Please any help on replacing them would be fantastic I've watched the YouTube clips but no-one talks about how long to set the camber arm to.

      Heh. I copied the link to the video direct, instead of the thread I mentioned. But the video is the main value content anyway. Otherwise, yes, in Europe, surely you'd be expected to buy local. Being whichever flavour of Michelin, Continental or Pirelli suits your usage model.
