thanks shane.

no no and no!! lol

i personally think its a shit areaa!!! and all the suburbs surrounding it too...

heard of plenty of thefts there..

Why did you choose campbelltown?

you gonna be buying a place?

Edited by siddr20

Depends on where in campbelltown.

I live in Leumeah and wouldnt live anywhere else.

Never had any problems,Public school and Highschool 5 min walk either direction.Close to train station.

Reasonally priced property.

campbelltown is a shithole, there are plenty of better places to live that are closer to the city..

if you like 17yo mothers and dole bludgers than campbelltown is your spot :(

heh, you should probably visit before making sweeping statements. The area is huge with the majority of the population being young families. A large proportion of residential development in sydney in the last 20 years has been out here.

Nothing wrong with it, property is very well priced lots of new housing around the place rather than 40 year old houses/blocks of units in the inner suburbs.

Close to oran park, though in 3 years that will have likely been closed and developed, easy drive to wakefield park.

Travel to the city is a bitch if you drive as the M5 is backed up from about 6am, trains are accessable though.

I just bought a 7 year old house on an 880m2 block for under 400k. You can't do that anywhere else in sydney.

**** THE MOST CONFUSING DAY IN CAMBELLTOWN IS FATHERS DAY****

Yeh Oran park is the only bonus but is only going to be around for another few years if that! It gets really hot out there and takes years to get too the city and the people i guess are the same as anywhere you have your bad areas and good areas I know of a bad area their actullay it is just a house LOL WANKER! Sorry back to the subject

Advice.... locate employment find out how much you want to spend on rent and go from there. We will be happy to help

Ive lived near ctown nearly all of my life. And have never had a problem. U will find it if you want it though.. Public transport is easily accessable and to drive anywhere is relitvly quick. It is kind of like central for access to sydney city, wollongong and the blue mountains.

alot of areas in sydney have dole bludgers n teeny bopper's popping babies out....not just campbelltown.....there are better places to live in sydney eg bondi...but not everyone was brought up with a silverspoon. good n bad in every suburb so making generalisations cause of certain areas that are bad doesnt make it ALL bad.

Altho it does share its numbers of smakies around tho, but since the gov likes to give our hard earned money away in taxes so easierly.....makes you want to go on the dole!:P

Campbelltown isnt that bad just the all the bludgers etc come from other suburbs to live

haha

Seriously it isnt that bad a place to live..surrounding areas like camden, harrington park denham court, st andrews etc is probably nicer place to live

ive been in glenfield and mac fields for more than 20 years and its the only place i feel comfortable in. i dont know anyone on the dole, i dont get mugged every day and i catch a train to the city in 35min. why would you live anywhere else? especially if you own a skyline, you need somewhere with access to roads that are actually fun to drive, unless your a poser who is an inch of the ground cruising for chicks.

I have lived on both sides of sydney and find them relatively the same :)

Depends how close you want to be to the city and if you like open space??

Campbelltown is nice, im in the good part and its relatively modern..all new housing estates are going up and its cheaper liveing out here and the M5 is pretty good most days just gets a bit backed up if there is an accident :O

Campbelltown is misunderstood, everywhere there is good and bad!!

It all depends on the lifestyle you are use too..

Let us know if and when you plan on moving will come and say hi :)

    • You just need to remove the compressor housing, not the entire turbo. I would not be drilling and tapping anything with the housing still on anyways. 
    • So, I put my boat on a boat. First of all, I'm going to come out and say it. Why is Tasmania not considered a holy goal, an apex that all road-legal modified cars go to, to experience? This place is an absolute wonderland of titanic proportions. If people are already getting club runs for once in a lifetime 30 person cruises to Tassy then I've never seemed to see it. It is like someone replaced the entire place with an idyllic wonderland for cars, and all of the people living there with paid actors who are kind, humble, and friendly. Dear god. After doing a lap of almost all of the place I've found that it's a great way to find out all of the little things that the car isn't doing quite right and a great way to figure it all out. All in all, I drove for 4 hours a day for a week and nothing broke. I didn't even need to open the engine bay. This is by all means a great success, but it has left me with a list of things to potentially address. I also now have a 3D printed wheel fitment tool which annoyingly hasn't got any threads in it to actually assemble it. I might be able to tape it together to check the sizing I actually want to use, but it'll likely involving pulling the shocks out to properly measure travel at least at the front, and probably raise the car while I'm at it, at least in the rear. I scraped on quite a few things and I'm not sure how else to go about it. I was taking anything with a bump at what felt like 89 degree angles. And address those 10 other tasks. And wash the car. God damn it is dirty. And somehow, the weather was perfect the entire time - And because I was on the top of Mt Wellington it turns out it was very much about to freeze up there. I did something I typically never do and took some photos up there in what must have been -10 and the foggy felt like suspended ice, rather than mere fog. If you own a car in Australia, you owe it to yourself to do it.
    • Damn that was hilarious, and a bit embarrassing for skylines in general 😂 vintage car life ey. That R33 really stomped. Pretty entertaining stuff
    • Hi, I have a r32 gtr transmission. Does any of you guys have an idea how much power it will hold with the billet center plate and stock gearset? At what power level and use did yours brake with or without billet plate? Thanks, Oystein Lovik
    • Saw this replica police car based on a Mitsubishi Starion XX parked next to a 'police box' (it's literally a box) in Hirohata, Himeji City in Hyogo prefecture the other day. It's owned by Morii-san who is a local Mitsubishi Starion enthusiast. According to a local radio station blog post, he always wanted to make a police car himself based on ones he saw in his favourite Manga comics.  As it's illegal to modify a car to look like a police car and drive on the road, Morii-san tried many times to get permission from Aboshi police station headquarters nearby. They refused initially by after they got tired of that they granted him permission. However, the car can only be displayed on private property and obviously can't be registered as long as the police livery is present. The car was completed at a cost of 1.5 million yen (US$ 10,000) in addition to the car cost. A location was chosen outside Hirohata Police box where the car can easily been seen from the street. Morii-san has two other Starion road cars, both widebody GSR-VRs.
