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.

    • I would just put EBC back on the "I would not use their stuff" pile and move on.
    • Can I suggest you try EBC directly again and link them to as many competitor catalogues as you can to show their listing is incorrect, eg https://dba.com.au/product/front-4000-series-hd-brake-rotor-dba42304/ If you have access to an R33 GTST VIN and your VIN, you could also use a Nissan Parts lookup like Amayama to show them the part number is different between 33 GTST and 34 GTT which may get their attention
    • So i got reply from EBC and they just this site where you can clearly see those 296mm fronts on R34 GTT. I send them photos and "quotes" that 296mm are not for 34 GTT and they are too small. But it will be very hard to return them cuz nobody here knows 100% and they just copy those EBC catalogue :-D https://ebcbrakesdirect.com/automotive/nissan/skyline-r34
    • Hi, is the HKS  Tower Bar still available ? negotiable ? 🤔
    • From there, it is really just test and assemble. Plug the adapter cables from the unit into the back of the screen, then the other side to the car harness. Don't forget all the other plugs too! Run the cables behind the unit and screw it back into place (4 screws) and you should now have 3 cables to run from the top screen to the android unit. I ran them along the DS of the other AV units in the gap between their backets and the console, and used some corrugated tubing on the sharp edges of the bracket so the wires were safe. Plug the centre console and lower screen in temporarily and turn the car to ACC, the AV should fire up as normal. Hold the back button for 3 sec and Android should appear on the top screen. You need to set the input to Aux for audio (more on that later). I put the unit under the AC duct in the centre console, with the wifi antenna on top of the AC duct near the shifter, the bluetooth antenna on the AC duct under the centre console The GPS unit on top of the DS to AC duct; they all seem to work OK there are are out of the way. Neat cable routing is a pain. For the drive recorder I mounted it near the rear view mirror and run the cable in the headlining, across the a pillar and then down the inside of the a pillar seal to the DS lower dash. From there it goes across and to one USB input for the unit. The second USB input is attached to the ECUtec OBD dongle and the 3rd goes to the USB bulkhead connected I added in the centre console. This is how the centre console looks "tidied" up Note I didn't install the provided speaker, didn't use the 2.5mm IPod in line or the piggyback loom for the Ipod or change any DIP switches; they seem to only be required if you need to use the Ipod input rather than the AUX input. That's it, install done, I'll follow up with a separate post on how the unit works, but in summary it retains all factory functions and inputs (so I still use my phone to the car for calls), reverse still works like factory etc.
