If I ever win the lotto I'll walk into a Ferrari dealership dressed like I normally dress, in trackies etc

If they act like cocks and lose the sale, I'll drive past in my new lambo and give em a wave

When I was looking I was ready to buy drove an hour to the only dealership in victoria with a black GS, leather, auto, premo sound, I was looking at the car for about 25 minutes waiting for the first guy to actually bother asking me how I'm going and talk about the car unlike the rest of them that would of thought I was a time waster.. that guy was a young bloke too and guess what, he got the sale.

Negotiation was pretty funny, this is late 2011 for a 2011 plated car and he came back with like $250 off the price just laughed and ended up getting 2.5k off instead I think from memory because we stood up and started walking outside the door.

Does anyone get any use out of their credit card award points? I have a feeling its all a con unless you use your CC for business use, pretty hard to rack up enough points for anything good :/

Got a Commbank Awards creditcard but might change to a low interest creditcard instead...i guess less interest would be better than any bs points....

Some credit cards offer qantas freq flyer points but usually its $1 = 0.5freq points. With that logic, i would need to spend at least $20,000 on the credit card to get 10,000points...

Cashed my points in for $230

Considering I'd never paid a cent of interest at that point, it wasn't a bad deal

Not bad, just checked mine. I can get about $150 cashback. However its taken probably 6yrs to get enough points to get such a claim lol

F*** Amex, they rape suppliers on usage charges and consequently a lot won't accept it.

Hey Pat do you remember a chocolate bar called Take 5? It was a chocolate bar with Malteser type balls in it, sitting in a row.

Edit: wasn't Take 5...but it was "something" 5.

    • Totally equivalent. Stock often goes from the comp cover because that's where the actuator is also installed and the factory needs 2" of hose to make the connection - and it comes as a pre-assembled unit. They totally have a boost reference from somewhere between the turbo and the throttle(s). Oh, jeez. Just do it in M12 then. We don't actually care that much. I would expect any such AN converter fitting to rely on an o-ring or some other seal onto a flat surface under the flange of the hex**, because bolt threads are no intended to provide a pressure seal. unlike..... pipe threads. **which also requires a suitably flat and smooth surface on the turbo's boss to provide the seal.
    • I also used NP   That’s were it’s seems to be the best place to fit it? All schematic shows also that it’s should be referenced from the turbo housing. But idk, I do see high hp cars without any connection or anything to their turbos, so I really don’t know how they connect their things
    • I do have loctite 243 and 246 and a few more models. I could drill it now in place and make new threads for m12 and order an4 - m12 coupling and fit that to the turbo. Run a braided hose to the EBC which I could get a an4 to 1/8npt 
    • So M12 and sealant should be fine?    NPT ” because that’s what I had and what I could get atm. 
    • Wouldn’t touch par if they gave it to me. You need to ask how much power you’re looking to make and then add about 50% to it because that’s what you’ll end up making  The factory box says no more at about 350kw or so, the upgraded synchro boxes won’t handle much over 500kw for long and at that point you’re looking at an auto or dog engagement manual,  once you’ve gone dog engagement you may as well go sequential, they cost a little bit more but it’s worth it  also while you’re at it you should upgrade the transfer case with 10 friction plates
