speaking of real life brahs, i have a few questions

thinking about selling car, to put toward a house deposit and getting a 25kish car.. so far been looking at WRX's (2011 shape <30k) want something half decent on fuel that's nice with a little bit of punch. Other thing is evo, but everyone seems to hate those eventually, and bit older for your money.. Any other ideas? I mean I still have my motorbike which shits on my car anyway for outright fun and speed.

option 2 is sell my shares and use that money.. which definitely seems like it might be a silly thing to give up :\ also first home loaners grant have to live in it for a year correct?

Thought that looks pretty good... until I scrolled down to the bacon

bacon / maple syrup / ice cream / pancakes

boss combo

srs

Evo is great... but I don't have the spare scratch to make it worthwhile and we need a new family car

if you got a 9 and pushed a lazy 250 kw you will love it

There is no first home owners grant unless you build, you will be entitled to the stamp duty discount first home buyers get which requires you to move in within 12 months for a minimum of 12 months from memory

85k for teacher? damn got to be happy with that.

(not saying you dont earn it, but from what i know usual pay is a fair bit less than that (depending on role))

just get a 5k SSS. if you want to mod, its cheap. service cheap. fuel efficient when you want it to be.

your 20k you save will be much more worthwhile in deposit than on car that will cost you more in service and insurance etc.

    • The team at OBD2 Australia are pretty good, shoot them an email and ask them. I've dealt with them before for work stuff. I'd be shocked if it didn't work, so long as Consult can activate the ABS. But you might need to use KLine for it which would be the stopper, as I don't think that piece does KLine comms.
    • Yeah and hence my ghetto way of slamming the brakes, get the ABS to cycle, rebleed seems to be a sensible workaround.
    • Hey! Happy to help. Nothing inherently wrong with the adapter, it's more so with Brett Collins himself. He gave me a lot of incorrect information when I was in contact with him and was extremely rude when I challenged him. He stated I could not use any aftermarket twin plate clutches except for his own, not to use the dush shield, bla bla bla and it was all BS.  Collins stated to cut roughly 14mm's off the housing, I took off 15mm to make room for the dust shield. I would confirm with whatever adapter manufacturer you're using. 
    • There's plenty of OEM steering arms that are bolted on. Not in the same fashion/orientation as that one, to be sure, but still. Examples of what I'm thinking of would use holes like the ones that have the downward facing studs on the GTR uprights (down the bottom end, under the driveshaft opening, near the lower balljoint) and bolt a steering arm on using only 2 bolts that would be somewhat similarly in shear as these you're complainig about. I reckon old Holdens did that, and I've never seen a broken one of those.
    • Let's be honest, most of the people designing parts like the above, aren't engineers. Sometimes they come from disciplines that gives them more qualitative feel for design than quantitive, however, plenty of them have just picked up a license to Fusion and started making things. And that's the honest part about the majority of these guys making parts like that, they don't have huge R&D teams and heaps of time or experience working out the numbers on it. Shit, most smaller teams that do have real engineers still roll with "yeah, it should be okay, and does the job, let's make them and just see"...   The smaller guys like KiwiCNC, aren't the likes of Bosch etc with proper engineering procedures, and oversights, and sign off. As such, it's why they can produce a product to market a lot quicker, but it always comes back to, question it all.   I'm still not a fan of that bolt on piece. Why not just machine it all in one go? With the right design it's possible. The only reason I can see is if they want different heights/length for the tie rod to bolt to. And if they have the cncs themselves,they can easily offer that exact feature, and just machine it all in one go.
