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.

yeah, there is a cap (usually $10kpa) for extra payments on fixed interest loans. so you can only pay $200/w extra max.

Problem is if you break the fixed interest period there can be massive economic costs incurred and this is something that banks are VERY conservative about wavering no matter what the circumstance. Reason being the money was purchased up front by the bank at a specific rate when you borrowed it and the repayments are calculated based on that. By paying it out early the bank may not see the return required to cover what they paid, and it will certainly reduce the profit in any case. It is also to prevent people from constantly refinancing to a new fixed rate every time there is a drop and then leaving it when it rises.

Aka exit fees

Technically no, exit fees are fees added to a loan if the contract is broken and are associated purely with the loan exit.

Economic costs, although often charged in a lump sum at loan termination are not fees, but costs that were due to be debited to the loan over a period of time and not an addition to your standard contractual repayments.

You can also be charged economic costs if you wish to simply terminate the fixed rate and return to variable on the same product (not common)

Got an sms last night from my gym, which I've neglected of late... and been to once in the past 18 months...

"Hi Simon, we require you to please come to the club and sort your membership out as we'd like to get the amount owed cleared off the system. If you have any questions please just ask and read the terms and conditions of your membership agreement to avoid further extra costs."

I was about 2 minutes away from there on my drive home, so dropped in and asked why there was any amount owed, it's linked to my valid credit card (and expires 11/2015).

They said my card expires 11/14 so I owe nearly $300 in membership fees and disloyalty charges.

My actual response to that was "Get f**ked, that's not happening... You've made a mistake and I've been overcharged because of it", with the aim that he'd drop the disloyalty charges for each failed transaction. Instead he dropped the membership fees and kept the disloyalty charges. So I cancelled the membership, he said to hold onto my passcard incase I wanted to be re-start my membership within the next 3 months.

Some new members were signing up right next to me with the same guy, who was trying to multi task instead of concentrating on a single customer at a time. This annoyed me so I got stuck into him, loud enough that they could hear as well, asking why there was no notification when payments started failing because of their mistake instead of just letting an account rack up a large pile of fees. He had no answer, and as I was leaving he calls after me "Seeya mate, I hope you achieve your goals".

      Boost cut after swap(RB25DET NEO) R34

      By GTSBoy · Posted

      Don't even try to run it on the stock ECU if you're going to have the boost controller bring boost above ~10 psi. I've already told you that. If you use the Nistune ECU, you will need to CAREFULLY read the available documentation for Neo tuning, and read some threads on the Nistune forums, to discover the various things you have to do to prevent the ECU from going bananas when the boost is too high. The is a table associated with th boost sensor that must be modified to prevent it from shitting the bed. This is just one of the things that you will need to do to the tune in Nistune, because the Neo turbo ECU will be expecting to see a number of things (such as the TCS) that are not there, and you have to block the DTCs on those. It is totally not surprising to me that you are having the problems that you are, but the solutions to these problems have been known for >15 years. So just get it done.

      Boost cut after swap(RB25DET NEO) R34

      By Kapr · Posted

      Hi. Sry iam not a mechanic and iam not at the car atm so i dont know 100% but they told they measure those and even try to change those. AFM they have two. Coils are new a they have my old one too. Plugs too. ECU...we have 25 NEO stock and Nistune 25 NEO.   But i dont know if any one those could be the problem and why/if/what can cause this, Only thing they did not check is fuel...but that walbro 255 is new(like 1,5 years)... That fuel pressure gauge idk...but i let them know Any suggestions?   EDIT: how can they know if it is like you say he ECU pull power when it reaches a specific boost level that is too high? Tha car has boost controler

      Boost cut after swap(RB25DET NEO) R34

      By Duncan · Posted

      Can you clarify what you mean by boost cut, do you mean it misfires both when under load (driving) and when stationary and out of gear? Or does the ECU pull power when it reaches a specific boost level that is too high (boost control issue)? Does it occur at idle with no throttle? When you say "the ECU is OK", what ECU is it and why do you think it is OK? Have you used the NEO ECU, and if so do you have a MAP sensor attached? Same for the AFM, why do you think it is OK? Do you have any way to put a fuel pressure gauge on it (even just a mechanical one between the fuel filter and fuel rail)?

      By Kapr · Posted

      Hi.. Just another problem. So maybe you can help. I(my mechanic) done swap from my RB20DE NEO to RB25DET NEO. Everything is OK but we have a boost cut. Coils/Plugs are ok...AFM is ok. ECU is ok. I have Walbro 255 but it "changed" sound few months ago(you can hear it ouside) you did not hear that when it was new(maybe faulty?) Sooo...what now? What can cause this boost cut? It is even when you standing still...
