700 gets you a hell of a lot there

if you looking to start up and happy to do a little work..sub 400K

500K will get you a off the plan town house:

That newport off the plan place will be like 7-8 squares at best I bet and the altoba north one is ok value but a unit & needs work & is in a dodgy spot

Wife just sold a knock down job In altona north for $701k!

moved here around 2008...most houses 300-400K

that said find cheaper 12 min from city!

as I mentioned however I'm moving country side, so yeah 5-10 acres would be about right

Altona, Brooklyn etc

Take what you can get at grad level, then work your ass off. Pat and others will tell you the same

Life ain't a drag meet, it's a marathon

I skipped grad position and went straight to engineer position. No time for 3 years of low pay & shit work.

That backfired Monica.

22kms isn't much as the crow flies, but it's my understanding that getting there either with traffic / shitty PT options isn't heaps of fun

Feel free to correct me though, I avoid the west at all costs lol

It's alright depends what time your traveling but it's a trade off your getting double the property for your money but spending more time traveling but have better home quality of life & space etc.

Last time I checked the radio the monash, eastern, ring road etc all sounded pretty shite @ peak hour..

How realistic / repeatable is that Pat? Given the swarms of engineering grads in here who are looking for jobs

I'm gonna stand by my promotion of a good work ethic. Don't see how a pissing contest is going to actually help Jonoe

Yeah that's fair. I'm neither a family man nor a weekday driver though so I'll stay in my inner east ivory tower haha

I doubt Jonoe is turning down grad jobs cause it doesn't fit/low pay/hard work.

If he is, then harden the f**k up.

If he having trouble securing any grad job, he needs to make himself stand out amongst all the others.

And I stand by my comment of grad jobs. They are hired by HR under their budget & have no clue what makes a good engineer. All they can go off is uni marks which is only one dimension of a productive employee.

Best to go for full time job if you can talk the talk as you are hired by senior engineer & not some HR muppet.

    • I can see between the water jacket and cyl 3 there wasn't a hard line of combustion gas. It certainly appears that the issue is coming from there. Yes, checked the tension. All at 100ft lbs where I set them 5 years ago. These blocks can crack but generally when they have been over bored. Mine is only 0.5mm oversize at 89.5mm. They break between cylinders around the 91mm mark. No sign of that with mine. My gut feeling is the head gasket lifted a while back when the studs stretched and i bandaided it by retorquing the studs. It's finally let go.
    • My Nismo 1.5 churps a bit on reverse turns when cold, but besides that feels like a stock diff.
    • Yes, but, I paid cash and I'm pretty sure the receipt was in the bin 10 minutes after I got home Note to self, keep all receipts
    • Bunnings would have just handed you your money back on that one!
    • So, version 4 intake is on its way I was looking at these a while ago but at around $200 or more it was a little pricey for something that might not work, but, I had it in my watch list, but, I got a message saying it was on special, and I had a code thingie to use, it eventually came in at $120 delivered, so BAM, BUY NOW.....LOL I'll need to have a look when it arrives but I feel it will "look" better than what I currently have, as it comes with a PCV fitting, so I will be able to get rid of the alloy pipe that goes to the throttle body with the PCV fitting  Well, that's what the voices in my head are telling me  Oh, and this happened today Yeap, it was a Trojan, and it was cheap, so I headed back to the hardware store and actually spent a little bit more on a heavy duty,  one that was actually recommended by a plumber mate, a Cyclone one with a fibreglass handle that is actually rated for clay The broken shovel will eventually be "modified" into a short handle shovel
