You laugh now, but when I'm at a formal occasion with a shitty DJ and they need someone to drop Dre beats...I have something up my sleeve.

Speaking of which rules changes will mean not much LAFHA anymore

my understanding of the changes means some companies using it as a tax dodge will be decreasing it. people like us who use it honestly and get reamed by the ATO anyway will continue using it as intended.

when I was claiming kms, meal allowances and LAHA my untaxed income was high which was punishing. why not just tax it all because its going to be taxed from me regardless.

listening to ABC radio today (only thing in reception) and it makes me angry that ABC spends all day interviewing and reporting on academics and political figures to talk about politics all day, all of who are basically in the public sector. everyone talking about what should be done, but nothing actually getting done. and no ad revenue means its 100% funded by the government. all the crap they were reporting and discussing could be summed up in a 60min program.

how about lets abolish ABC2, ABC3, ABC24 and ABC classical radio and broadcast important programs on commercial stations for providing unbiased *cough* national information. would it not be much cheaper and more efficient that way?

tl;dr: people paid by the government interviewing people in the government, talking about how to improve the government, broadcasted to those who pay for the government and/or are paid by the government.

Some of the changes:

1. You need to maintain an 'ownership interest in a unit of accommodation in Australia - not rented

2. Substantiation of all expenses

So unless you 'own' a property your going to have a bad time. And by bad time I mean your employer

Hai guys, CBF joining civic forum but anyone have expereince with EK civics and rims? Looking at buying some rims for the missus's EK Civic, probably either 15s or 16s. Not looking for poke or anything, just something that sits tight without tyre stretch and headaches like camber.

not everyone has the opportunity to shop at duty free on weekly basis

Even some duty free outlets are rather exy

Yes melb is shocking Dubai not much better

Singapore one if the best.

Cheapest found surprisingly is Johannesburg but not worth the trip just for booze

Have been quoted $10k to supercharge my SS-V or $10k to single turbo it. Thoughts? :(

dude you are stanced on 245s, with either SC or turbo it is going to be the worst thing to drive...lol....SC will probably be worse on the street cause too much torque it will just light up tyres everywhere...i guess at least the turbo will give you some warning and time to catch it, before it launched you into oblivion...

My mate has a built LS7? , its a 7lt supercharged monaro.. he took the SC off cause it was just too ridiculous to drive... :rofl:

      After market rear camber arm adjustment

      By Duncan · Posted

      Then, shorten them by 1cm, drop the car back down and have a visual look (or even better, use a spirit level across the wheel to see if you have less camber than before. You still want something like 1.5 for road use. Alternatively, if you have adjustable rear ride height (I assume you do if you have extreme camber wear), raise the suspension back to standard height until you can get it all aligned properly. Finally, keep in mind that wear on the inside of the tyre can be for incorrect toe, not just camber

      I know I have to get a wheel alignment but until then I just need to bring the rear tyres in a bit they're wearing to the belt on the inside and brand new on the outside edge. I did shorten the arms a bit but got it wrong now after a few klms the Slip and VDC lights come on. I'd just like to get it to a point where I can drive for another week or two before getting an alignment. I've had to pay a lot of other stuff recently so doing it myself is my only option

      You just need a wheel alignment after, so just set them to the same as current and drive to the shop. As there are 2 upper links it may also be worth adding adjustable upper front links at the same time; these reduce bump steer when you move the camber (note that setting those correctly takes a lot longer as you have to recheck the camber at each length of the toe arm, through a range of movement, so you could just ignore that unless the handling becomes unpredictable)

      I got adjustable after market rear camber arm to replace the stock one's because got sick of having to buy new rear tyres every few months. Can anyone please let me know what the best adjustment length would be. I don't have the old ones anymore to get measurements. I'm guessing the stock measurement minus a few mm would do it. Please any help on replacing them would be fantastic I've watched the YouTube clips but no-one talks about how long to set the camber arm to.

      Heh. I copied the link to the video direct, instead of the thread I mentioned. But the video is the main value content anyway. Otherwise, yes, in Europe, surely you'd be expected to buy local. Being whichever flavour of Michelin, Continental or Pirelli suits your usage model.
