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.

Screw da respect, GIMMIE DA BITCHES!

True that!

Wise man

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.

    • I neglected to respond to this previously. Get it up to 100 psi, and then you'll be OK.
    • I agree with everything else, except (and I'm rethinking this as it wasn't setup how my brain first though) if the sensor is at the end of a hose which is how it has been recommended to isolate it from vibrations, then if that line had a small hole in, I could foresee potentially (not a fluid dynamic specialist) the ability for it to see a lower pressure at the sensor. But thinking through, said sensor was in the actual block, HOWEVER it was also the sensor itself that broke, so oil pressure may not have been fully reaching the sensor still. So I'm still in my same theory.   However, I 100% would be saying COOL THE OIL DOWN if it's at 125c. That would be an epic concern of mine.   Im now thinking as you did Brad that the knock detection is likely due to the bearings giving a bit more noise as pressure dropped away. Kinkstah, drop your oil, and get a sample of it (as you're draining it) and send it off for analysis.
    • I myself AM TOTALLY UNPREPARED TO BELIEVE that the load is higher on the track than on the dyno. If it is not happening on the dyno, I cannot see it happening on the track. The difference you are seeing is because it is hot on the track, and I am pretty sure your tuner is not belting the crap out of it on teh dyno when it starts to get hot. The only way that being hot on the track can lead to real ping, that I can think of, is if you are getting more oil (from mist in the inlet tract, or going up past the oil control rings) reducing the effective octane rating of the fuel and causing ping that way. Yeah, nah. Look at this graph which I will helpfully show you zoomed back in. As an engineer, I look at the difference in viscocity at (in your case, 125°C) and say "they're all the same number". Even though those lines are not completely collapsed down onto each other, the oil grades you are talking about (40, 50 and 60) are teh top three lines (150, 220 and 320) and as far as I am concerned, there is not enough difference between them at that temperature to be meaningful. The viscosity of 60 at 125°C is teh same as 40 at 100°C. You should not operate it under high load at high temperature. That is purely because the only way they can achieve their emissions numbers is with thin-arse oil in it, so they have to tell you to put thin oil in it for the street. They know that no-one can drive the car & engine hard enough on the street to reach the operating regime that demands the actual correct oil that the engine needs on the track. And so they tell you to put that oil in for the track. Find a way to get more air into it, or, more likely, out of it. Or add a water spray for when it's hot. Or something.   As to the leak --- a small leak that cannot cause near catastrophic volume loss in a few seconds cannot cause a low pressure condition in the engine. If the leak is large enough to drop oil pressure, then you will only get one or two shots at it before the sump is drained.
    • So..... it's going to be a heater hose or other coolant hose at the rear of the head/plenum. Or it's going to be one of the welch plugs on the back of the motor, which is a motor out thing to fix.
    • The oil pressure sensor for logging, does it happen to be the one that was slowly breaking out of the oil block? If it is,I would be ignoring your logs. You had a leak at the sensor which would mean it can't read accurately. It's a small hole at the sensor, and you had a small hole just before it, meaning you could have lost significant pressure reading.   As for brakes, if it's just fluid getting old, you won't necessarily end up with air sitting in the line. Bleed a shit tonne of fluid through so you effectively replace it and go again. Oh and, pay close attention to the pressure gauge while on track!
