Anyone know a rough cost of how much it would cost to get 7-8 power-points added around a house, and any recommendations on people who do electrical & data cabling?

Really depends on the age of the house and the way its all setup but the cost will generally be the same no matter what. It's the quality of work that will differ, in terms of installation. If you want to do it on the cheap, speak to a few of the younger trades-type call out and discuss cash in hand. Ive found that the younger sub contract blokes do a good job to create a good rep for themselves. I'll ask around for some good ones if I hear of any I'll let you know

My family friend, Larry from Terson Industries (in white pages), could give you a quote Jenna.

regarding my stagea, was parked at home, vandalized between 2.30-6.30am. I wouldnt mind if the insurance co simply said either writeoff, or full respray. anything else doesnt seem worthwhile going thru insurance. Sort of over it to tell the truth. With my chronic knee pain all I can think of is topping myself. Not a nice way to go thru everyday simply trying to be positive to see out tomorrow.

No need to go that far dude.......there are always greener pastures ahead.

Possibly a good time to start consolidating finances Tangles.......work out what you need and what you don't need then sell......but be patient when selling stuff.

Maybe good idea to stop spending $$ on go fast bits for the cars for awhile.........I know it's easier said than done sometimes.

Hang in there bud :thumbsup:

Reason I'm asking is - if the finance goes through - I may soon own a house. It just needs a heap more power-points and data-cabling through-out.

.. Could soon be living just a few blocks from you, Ruby :)

I guess right now I'm just looking for an idea - like am I looking at like $50-75/point, or more. Once I know I have the house, and moving in then it'll be time for proper quotes.

terson industries (larry & sue dossiter) can give you an approx cost over the phone, no isses with that.

tell them Brendan wilkeson put you onto them & they'll look after you, that I guarantee.

as for my depression, well its just that. stems from 23+yrs of knee pain, with say 17yrs of that classified as "severe/chronic pain"

if I didnt have 2 children I simply wouldnt keep going thru each 24hrs and take the easy way out. they are the only thing that keeps me pushing on.

as for finances, my home is for sale for 375k, after paying out the ex around 100k, and the borrowings Id be left with around 75k. I should not have bought the R32 nor should I have had the work done to the engine this year; my head simply hasnt been seeing straight for some years now; can see the past 3 yrs since Ive been on morphine & pristiq (anti-dep) I havent been making strong decisions motivated towards the future.... Took myself off some medication a cple of weeks ago to try to start thinking clearly again.

      Its a 2002 vr-x four VQ25DET, silver. Coil overs, lowered, polished alloys and sport exhaust. Bit of a project, was sitting in a shed for a while but runs and drives great.

      I wasn’t able to replicate the sound anymore. It was a one time sound so maybe it was just coincidence but it was like small pebbles being dropped in a coke can.   should I try cleaning the MAF? It could be it’s functioning but dirty? I don’t know.

      Update 4: Hi all. The car drives again! Haven't driven for long, only to store it in the garage again, but the test drive was successful. The coolant and oil leaks seem to be fixed for now. Temps on the engine were also very good, while moving I never even saw 80C water during the approx. 30 minute drive. Ate up all the coolant in the reservoir though so will have to fill that even more when I go to the car next time. One thing that pisses me off is that the RPM gauge is still f**ked, I even resoldered the board twice and used copper paste on the silly screws that are used as connections. Next time I take it out I'll take apart the board and fit new components, I'll see if I can get a replacement IC for it.  I have an appointment set for 22nd of September for the engine tune to 370hp. Alignment also still needs to be done. My hope is that I can get all the legal stuff over with by the end of this season. Anyone of you have advice regarding intercoolers? Currently there is an APEXI core fitted, one of those weird hybrid ones, 600x270x76. I don't think it's bad but it's not new and now I still have the chance to change it now to legally include it in the paperwork. Only issue is that the only options that would arrive in time are a HKS Type R intercooler or generic Ebay spec intercoolers comparable to a JustJap one. Ideally I'd order a Plazmaman but it takes over a month to receive which would mean making the car legal has to wait until next season. Would love to hear some input on this. Same story for my injectors, the previous owner was a nunce and put ID 1050x on the engine. They work but are obviously not ideal at "normal" power levels. But I don't see a reason to change them unless the tuner says it's necessary. I read online before buying a different exhaust that the top secret style rear diffusers won't fit due to the size of the rear resonators. My buddy and I made it work by slightly "adjusting the shape" of the mounting bracket and making some spacers out of 3d print for the mounting bolts. Fits like a charm. Just putting this here in case someone has this problem. Even the hefty HKS Silent Hi Power rear can fits without hitting anything.
