Ok so im working out my refund at the moment. Lets just say I earnt (lets call it $X) over 30,000. so according to the tax brackets:

Taxable income Tax on this income

$1 – $6,000 Nil

$6,001 – $30,000 15c for each $1 over $6,000

$30,001 – $75,000 $3,600 plus 30c for each $1 over $30,000

$75,001 – $150,000 $17,100 plus 40c for each $1 over $75,000

$150,001 and over $47,100 plus 45c for each $1 over $150,000

I have to pay $3,600 plus .30 for each $1 over $30,000

So I multiply $X by 0.30.

I add that amount to $3,600, and that’s how much I have to pay (lets call it value A). Then I take what tax I HAVE paid, subtract value A, and that’s my refund?

If so, I get Quite a bit back!

No its not that simple.

You have to do that, then have to calculate the Medicare levy, any reportable fringe benefits, and any HECS requirements you have.

Best bet is to use the Tax office online calculator at www.ato.gov.au

Link to calculator is here: link

I have to pay $2,600 plus .30 for each $1 over $30,000

So I multiply $X by 0.30.

I add that amount to $2,600, and that’s how much I have to pay (lets call it value A). Then I take what tax I HAVE paid, subtract value A, and that’s my refund?

:) Use the calculator. Do your return with a tax consultant or accountant, they'll squeeze your dollar for you.

Ok so for all you haters i used the calculator :) and i was right, for the purposes of shits and giggles. I earnt under 50k and have no spouses or dependants so i dont have to pay the medicare surcharge. Mine is easy, money comes in, tax comes out. thats it.

Hey Damo,

You will not have to pay the surcharge but you will have to pay the medicare levy which is 1.5% of your taxable income.

eg $40,000 = $600

you must add this onto the tax you have to pay on your income and then take off the tax you have paid and this will give you an approximate figure.

i just did mine on the calculator :D

sucks when u break another bracket!! aww... pay some money for me!

I presume you refer to the common misconception, that if you bust into a higher tax bracket, then the whole amount of your income is taxed at that rate. This is incorrect - effectively only the amount of money over the previous threshold is taxed at the high rate.

you did use that etax free program right? thats pretty easy to use explains each step.

im not a tax specialists but you can claim somewhere around $300 of work relates expenses as dedutables without reciepts. its on the etax program when you look how much exactly just gota read through it slowly

creative accounting strikes again.

yeah you will get a hefty refund.

The 2nd job has to tax you are the marginal rate, on the presumption that you will reach the highest threshold in your 1st job.

I am sure you would complain much more if they had taxed you on your 2nd job at normal tax rates, and then at tax time hand YOU a hefty tax bill.

Ah that's good news. I can finally buy some tyres for my new wheels! yay!

    • Welcome to Skyline ownership. Yes, it is entirely possible parts websites get things wrong. There's a whole world of inaccuracies out there when it comes to R34 stuff (and probably 33 and 32). Lots of things that are 'just bolt on, entirely interchangable' aren't. Even between S1 and S2 R34's. Yes they have a GTT item supposedly being 296mm. This is incorrect. I would call whoever you got them from and return them and let them know the GTT actually uses 310mm rotors. Depending on where you got them from your experience and success will obviously vary.
    • Hi...a bit a "development" on the brakes. I spoke to the guys where i get brakes from...and they are saying that 296mm EBC are for R34 GT-T. I then went to their site: https://www.ebcbrakes.com/vehicle/uk-row/NISSAN/Skyline (R34)/ and search for my car(R34 GT 1998 - it has GTT brakes) and it show me this USR1229 number and they are rly 296mm rotors... So now iam rly confused... The rotors i have now on the car are 310mm asi shown... So where is the problem? Does the whole EBC got it wrong or my calipers are just...idk know what?  
    • Oh What the hell, I used to get a "are you sure you want to reply, this thread is XX months old" message. Maybe a software update remove that. My bad.
    • This is a recipe for disaster* Note: Disaster is relative. The thing that often gets lost in threads like this is what is considered acceptable poke and compromise between what one person considers 'good' looks and what someone else does. The quoted specs would sit absurdly outside the guards with the spacers mentioned and need  REALLY thin tyres and a LOT of camber AND rolling the guards to fit. Some people love this. Some people consider this a ruined car. One thing is for certain though, rolling the guards is pretty much mandatory for any 'good' fitment (of either variety). It is often the difference between any fitment remotely close to the guards. "Not to mention the rears were like a mm from hitting the coilovers." I have a question though - This spec is VERY close to what I was planning to buy relative to the inboard suspension - I have an offset measuring tool on the way to confirm it. When you say "like a mm" do you mean literally 1mm? Or 2mm? Cause that's enough clearance for me in the rear :p I actually found the more limiting factor ISNT the coilover but the actual suspension arms. Did you take a look at how close those were?
    • @GTSBoy yeah sorry i know thery are known for colors bud those DBA are too in colors 🙂 Green will be good enough for me
