Which bank / organisation should I look at re: getting a bank loan for a new ute around the 25k mark? Any recommendations? I'm an existing westpac customer, but from my research it appears that Commonwealth Bank might have a better deal. Any thoughts, please put them here...

ANZ isn't too bad, they don't include interest on principal compared to Commonwealth.

ANZ approved my loan application twice when CBA didn't even though I used to be with CBA at the time.

Saw a red ZR1 Corvette on Eastlink...never seen one in the flesh and there must be less than 5 in Australia. Numberplates LS9ZR1 - LS9 being the supercharged 7 litre V8 they come with from factory...absolute porn and ridiculous road presence.

Tony will be able to elaborate cos he is an accountant however from my understanding if it's used for work you should lease it as you can deduct more a personal loan u can only claim the interest component don't quote me on it though I'm not an accountant, but the. Interest rate will be lower on a lease than a personal loan

Lease's and the benefits of salary sacrifice are usually done via an employer.

As you are self employed now you might have a problem obtaining a lease, but see how you go.

You won't be able to salary sacrifice but you will be able to claim MV costs in your ITR such as 'interest' expenses.

Peoples choice credit union, formerly savings and loans. Rate is sub 9 percent still I believe. Got loan on the r via s and l in 09 at a fixed rate of 7.2 percent but has gone up since then

they are faster than the gtr around nurburgring :O I think the 2012 GTR is meant to beat it tho

100 times better looking and just a six speed manual! Yer the 2012 GTR is pretty friggen quick...I wonder how it fares against the ACR Viper or if Chev will fire back with something faster?

Pretty sure everyone is below 9% atm well lease companies anyway

Tony gonna start charging us for the advice lol

Don't worry I got an excel spreadsheet running with a tab on your SAU VIC Wastelanders

Seen a Z06 once on our roads. Looked very baws.

I think a conversion of a Z06 costs a fair bit so can't imagine how much it would cost to bring a ZR1 down :/

That looks exactly like the one I saw, bar the numberplates. Might as well have bought that one and slapped the Vic plates on it. Photos don't do justice though.

thanx for sleuthing out that bit of highly secret information adam

Not everyone is familiar with the GM engine family, let alone one that only comes in a special edition of a certain model!

Compared to the cars you get here for new you could say its quite a bargain!

It'd turn many more heads!

    • There's restrictor pills in the stock boost control hoses. That's how they set the amount that was bled off and hence the "high" boost setting. The usual mod in the day was to remove it and send the "high" boost setting up to about 14 psi.
    • Thanks Duncan, that's the best info I've read. Furthermore after learning about the PCM programming side controlling the factory boost solenoid, the purpose of the solenoid is to "bleed" boost when pin 25 is earthed, thus allowing spring pressure in the wastegate actuator to overcome diaphragm boost pressure, thus closing or reducing the position of the wastegate flap creating more boost as the turbo is able to spin faster. It's pretty cool to see a designated Pill to do exactly this, would have liked to have seen it with a tiny filter over the end for those moments in vacuum.  The constant bleed pill has now been removed completely from the system and solenoid boost control has been restored once again.   Case closed 😂
    • The wideband reading is meaningless if it's not running. Why are you using shitty old sidefeeds on any engine, let alone a Neo? What manifold and fuel rail are you using to achieve that? Beyond that, can't help you with AEM stuff as I've never been their ECU/CAS combo.
    • Manual boost controllers (where a little of the boost was bled off) were quite common back in the day, because they were cheap and easy. Generally they had a manual adjustment screw rather than being fixed like yours. Down side is they always bleed boost, not just when you want them to so an electronic boost controller that uses a solenoid will have less lag.
    • Hello , im new here and i have A31 home build  RB25det neo stock eng / turbo  aem ems 2 blue connector  aem 3.5 map aem cas disk aem wideband connected to ecu  355 lph pump 550 nismo yellow injectors side feed aftermarket regulator  and won’t start with base aem tuner basic tune eventually flipped cas 180 degree so it triggers on correct stroke not in exhaust cycle  Now it won’t start Wideband reads 10 and 11 at lowest fuel setting  and will share calibrations soon for aem tuner i think something is wrong in aem tuner    please if you have any information, am very grateful
