Got it right.. Brisbane City is pretty ghey.

I have lived in and around Brissy for 25 years. There are some nice places around the city that are good to go too. You just have to know where to go.

Other then that it is ok. I prefer Perth personally, much more organised.

Agree with you there about perth (it's better planned) and other observations about brissy except... I think brissy overall.. is ok...I wouldn't say it's gay IMO.

it's got a dose (not too much) of a vibrant ethnic culture with a blend of qld chillax hospitable atmosphere, jobs are there, weather is good, in between Gcoast/SCoast. it's awakening artistically I think too.

It's picking up.

I love it sick! The place is growing in terms of places to eat and night life, we've just had a great example of a Brisbane "winter", rave, rave, rave best place in Oz :)

I do miss the quietness of the early 90's though, the traffic does shit me....but hey you can't get growth without people.

I have lived here all my life but have also lived for short periods in both Melbourne and Sydney.

Sydney was great if you weren't paying to live there. Everything was expensive except the public transport, they got that right!!

Melbourne is terrible, so full of itself. People from there defend it to the end, but these are the same people invading Brisbane and staying here, but they still whinge that Melbourne is better!!!

We are lucky to have what we do here in the South-East corner of Queensland. Proximity to two great coasts, and the Southbank precinct is pretty good. The city itself is always evolving and you just have to move around to find what you are looking for. The Valley is great and caters for most!!

I love it here!! All you whingers, piss off back to where you came from and leave us alone!!!

Depends on what you mean by the sticks I spose. I consider Jimboomba the sticks but its really not that bad when I think about it. Im an hour from the city and an hour from the Gold Coast so pretty much bang in the middle. Great place to live if you have no social life but a pain in the ass if you want to actually have friends lol. The roads aren't that terrible though some places in brisbane have worse roads than the ones out in the sticks lol, go figure. I wouldn't move any further away from anything than I am now though it would be too much hassle getting anywhere and f**k going inland thats just retarded...

How's that work? I'm FROM Brisbane :)

Shut up and GTFO?

The sticks is a good place to go driving though. Ain't that right CoLin.

There are some pretty decent roads around here eh Ro :down: . I've gotten used to the driving now. My sense of a long journey has been warped by working so far away from home lol. I used to travel 1.5 hours to work on the Tweed Coast everyday so now anything under an hour feels like a short drive lol ;)

      The final part arrived today to un-clampify and simplify the intake Who would have though a 1/2" hose stainless bulkhead fitting designed for below waterline bilge pumps would be what I needed Test fit on a 3" offcut I had laying around to see if it would work, and it worked a treat All going well the intake will be on its "final version" tomorrow

      Welcome to SAU, what are you looking at buying?

      R32 GTS (RB20DE) Injectors Replacement

      By GabsReDeal · Posted

      I checked the injectors again (1 and 2, since they’re easiest to access) to make sure they weren’t clogged. Even though the entire fuel system had been cleaned, I wanted to be certain. Everything looked clean, so I reinstalled and connected everything. When I started the car to confirm everything was okay, it immediately revved up high, so I shut it off straight away. I checked to see if I’d missed a vacuum hose or something, but everything was connected. On the second attempt, the car ran without the high idle, but I noticed a distinct “compressed air” sound coming from the engine bay. Tracing the sound, I pushed injector #6 forward slightly and the noise stopped — it turned out it wasn’t seated properly, despite the fuel rail being bolted down. While holding it in place, the car idled steadily without stalling and ran for over 5 minutes. At this point, I pulled all six injectors out just in case I hadn’t seated them correctly or dirt had gotten onto the O-rings. Unfortunately, I discovered that I had damaged 3 out of 6 injectors (the OEM 270cc ones) during installation. So yes, this was my fault. Since only the pintle caps were damaged, I’ve ordered a Fuel Injector Service Kit from NZEFI to refurbish them. In the meantime, I reinstalled my new injectors – the car now idles fine for over 15 minutes without stalling. I have not attempted to drive it so far. It’s not perfect yet, as it hesitates when the throttle is pressed, but it’s a big improvement. Unplugging the IACV with the new injectors idles at around 800rpm, even with the IACV screw tightened fully. But this is probably due to tune.
