I know there alot of topics on this already but i am not going to ask for places to look as i have been looking at place already, but basicaly to save me alot of time and effort for nothing i was wondering if anyone new minimum requirements that places look at for financeing someone. I know its not a skyline altho i like them i would like to get a 300zx, which means an unsecured loan. there in lays the problem nobody tells you min requierments. ANZ has some wishy washy getting your hopes up thing about just needing to be over 18 and australian resident for example.

there are no minimum requirements. There are literally hundres of vehicle finance / finance companies. It is not necessarily and unsecured loan, if it's a vehicle loan they should put an encumberance on your car with REVS.

You are meant to have a good credit rating to be able to get normal finance, but we just got a bloke approved on a VT who is an ex bankrupt. It is up to each individual application because sometimes you can get past certain negatives.

Following are the main points, where do you stand on each, and ill give you a rough idea on how you're looking.

Time in current job and previous job.

Full time, part time, or casual.

Time in current address, and previous address.

Renting with a lease in your name, mortgage, own outright, living with parents, boarding.

Any previous loans that you have paid out, or are currently paying?

Was/is it a good accout? ie have your payments all been on time, or have you been spasmodically late....(includes credit cards)

Current net/gross income.

Is it a steady wage or do you work on commission etc

Outgoings

Rent/mortgage/any other things

Assets

Tools, bikes, cars, boats, furniture or other things of value. How much is each worth.

Credit Report

Are there any defaults, court judgements, or bankruptcy acts on your credit file? How many enquiries are there, and have you been knocked back in the past?

Thats a quick one.

Following are the main points, where do you stand on each, and ill give you a rough idea on how you're looking.

Time in current job and previous job. 3 years of on call casual for numerous companies interspaced when work load was light with dole (i hate that part i think thats what does me in everytime) currently working in a rostered casual position at woolworths petrol.

Time in current address, and previous address.current address a year a month previous lived with my folks for 21 years. Currently renting house i am in off folks

Any previous loans that you have paid out, or are currently paying?1 credit card currently being paid off at about 100 a month.

Was/is it a good accout? resonably good account, now and then late becuase of lack of work.

Current net/gross income. 500 a week after tax is all i know what i will be getting by the end of january. steady wage, never again will i work commision (have once and i hated it)

Outgoings

150 per fortnight on rent, 100 bucks a month on mobile phone. 60 for net per month and 20 for home phone bout 200 every 3 months for power

Assets

one 1990 vn exec commodore worth about 3k atm (i got a bum deal on that i really did) and my compute which is worth about 1800. all my money goes into trying to get either a good car or bills

Credit Report

none that i know of, as for being knocked back all i got knocked back on was the fact that it was an import i was after and that was just in the qouteing area never applied for finance before.

thanks for your help mate

so how long have you been in your casual job @ woolies, and how much do you make per week there?

what will you be doing to ear $500 net/week in january?

I wouldnt be optimistic going to a major lender with that application. Your employment situation isnt helping you at the moment.

Keep your VN for a while, get into a job and stay there, $500/week is enough for a young bloke. Heres a better idea than getting a loan....

Save as much as you can, and start investing it in things that give you back positive cash flow (shares/managed funds/many other options) and try to make your own money, instead of paying off a car that is going to strap you, leave you in debt for 4-5 years, make a finance company thousands of dollars in interest etc etc. Financially and for your future, youre much better off saving and trying to make some money instead of getting into a long term debt and having to save up just to pay for maintenance and repairs etc. People spend so much and repeatedly put themselves in the hole to get a car that they want at the time, and at the end of it, they dont come out looking very good financially.

Working on commission is ok in the right situation. I do it for a living (selling cars) Bit stressfull sometimes :D

Good luck whatever you do.

I just starter at woolies, i am doing research now and looking 6 to 12 months down the track. starting in jan i pull graveyard shifts so 500 a week is what it works out too after tax. selling cars i would like to try my hand at at least once. especialy if it was on an import lot but i don't think i am very good at sales.

    • As discussed in the previous post, the bushes in the 110 needed replacing. I took this opportunity to replace the castor bushes, the front lower control arm, lower the car and get the alignment dialled in with new tyres. I took it down to Alignment Motorsports on the GC to get this work done and also get more out of the Shockworks as I felt like I wasn't getting the full use out of them.  To cut a very long story short, it ended up being the case the passenger side castor arm wouldn't accept the brand new bush as the sleeve had worn badly enough to the point you could push the new bush in by hand and completely through. Trying a pair of TRD bushes didn't fix the issue either (I had originally gone with Hardrace bushes). We needed to urgently source another castor arm, and thankfully this was sourced and the guys at the shop worked on my car until 7pm on a Saturday to get everything done. The car rides a lot nicer now with the suspension dialled in properly. Lowered the car a little as well to suit the lower profile front tyres, and just bring the car down generally. Eternally thankful for the guys down at the shop to get the car sorted, we both pulled big favours from our contacts to get it done on the Saturday.  Also plugged in the new Stedi foglights into the S15, and even from a quick test in the garage I'm keen to see how they look out on the road. I had some concerns about the length of the LED body and whether it'd fit in the foglight housing but it's fine.  I've got a small window coming up next month where I'll likely get a little paint work done on the 110 to remove the rear wing, add a boot wing and roof wing, get the side skirt fixed up and colour match the little panel on the tail lights so that I can install some badges that I've kept in storage. I'm also tempted to put in a new pair of headlights on the 110.  Until then, here's some more pictures from Easter this year. 
    • I would put a fuel pressure gauge between the filter and the fuel rail, see if it's maintaining good fuel pressure at idle going up to the point when it stalls. Do you see any strange behavior in commanded fuel leading up to the point when it stalls? You might have to start going through the service manual and doing a long list of sensor tests if it's not the fuel system for whatever reason.
    • Hi,  Just joined the forum so I could share my "fix" of this problem. Might be of use to someone. Had the same hunting at idle issue on my V36 with VQ35HR engine after swapping the engine because the original one got overheated.  While changing the engine I made the mistake of cleaning the throttle bodies and tried all the tricks i could find to do a throttle relearn with no luck. Gave in and took it to a shop and they couldn't sort it. Then took it to my local Nissan dealership and they couldn't get it to idle properly. They said I'd need to replace the throttle bodies and the ecu probably costing more than the car is worth. So I had the idea of replacing the carbon I cleaned out with a thin layer of super glue and it's back to normal idle now. Bit rough but saved the car from the wreckers 🤣
    • After my last update, I went ahead with cleaning and restoring the entire fuel system. This included removing the tank and cleaning it with the Beyond Balistics solution, power washing it multiple times, drying it thoroughly, rinsing with IPA, drying again with heat gun and compressed air. Also, cleaning out the lines, fuel rail, and replacing the fuel pump with an OEM-style one. During the cleaning process, I replaced several hoses - including the breather hose on the fuel tank, which turned out to be the cause of the earlier fuel leak. This is what the old fuel filter looked like: Fuel tank before cleaning: Dirty Fuel Tank.mp4   Fuel tank after cleaning (some staining remains): Clean Fuel Tank.mp4 Both the OEM 270cc and new DeatschWerks 550cc injectors were cleaned professionally by a shop. Before reassembling everything, I tested the fuel flow by running the pump output into a container at the fuel filter location - flow looked good. I then fitted the new fuel filter and reassembled the rest of the system. Fuel Flow Test.mp4 Test 1 - 550cc injectors Ran the new fuel pump with its supplied diagonal strainer (different from OEM’s flat strainer) and my 550cc injectors using the same resized-injector map I had successfully used before. At first, it idled roughly and stalled when I applied throttle. Checked the spark plugs and found that they were fouled with carbon (likely from the earlier overly rich running when the injectors were clogged). After cleaning the plugs, the car started fine. However, it would only idle for 30–60 seconds before stalling, and while driving it would feel like a “fuel cut” after a few seconds - though it wouldn’t fully stall. Test 2 – Strainer swap Suspecting the diagonal strainer might not be reaching the tank bottom, I swapped it for the original flat strainer and filled the tank with ~45L of fuel. The issue persisted exactly the same. Test 3 – OEM injectors To eliminate tuning variables, I reinstalled the OEM 270cc injectors and reverted to the original map. Cleaned the spark plugs again just in-case. The stalling and “fuel cut” still remained.   At this stage, I suspect an intermittent power or connection fault at the fuel pump hanger, caused during the cleaning process. This has led me to look into getting Frenchy’s fuel hanger and replacing the unit entirely. TL;DR: Cleaned and restored the fuel system (tank, lines, rail, pump). Tested 550cc injectors with the same resized-injector map as before, but the car stalls at idle and experiences what feels like “fuel cut” after a few seconds of driving. Swapped back to OEM injectors with original map to rule out tuning, but the issue persists. Now suspecting an intermittent power or connection fault at the fuel pump hanger, possibly cause by the cleaning process.
