Extended cliffs:

- pulled over on way to work a month ago

- area is Knox / Scoresby / I'm fked

- recognise officer from hwy patrol TV show

- also recognise she's pulled me over / fined before

- oh fk x 3

- your car is unregistered

- what?

- you sound surprised to hear this

- gooby pls I always pay it and I haven't seen a letter from VicRoads saying it's due

- bad luck, my partner and I were discussing it and we always remember to pay our registrations on time

- letmetellyouwhythatisbullshit.jpg sorry officer but I have 3 sets of registrations and have always depended on the letters to tell me

- bad luck here is $738 fine for rego being 6 days overdue, incidentally the cost of rego, also I can't let you drive any further unless you pay rego on the spot with a smart phone = enjoy $1500 worth of fees

- pay rego while she watches

- is it really necessary to give me a huge fine given it's pretty obvious I wasn't avoiding paying rego

- bad luck we knox hwy patrol / is really dolan, take it up with civic compliance

- call VicRoads ask wtf happened to my letter

- VicRoads say we sent it out like 2 weeks ago dude

- never got it...what about a reminder notice?

- not til 2 weeks after it's due dude

- thanks I guess

- write long winded letter explaining situation to civic compliance, acknowledging fault but pleading for situation to be taken into account

- official warning issued

- Birds does dance

- Birds unsure to be grateful of warning or ungrateful of fine that was result of system fail in the first place

Average wage is 75k

dont get confused with median

fwiw

I used median in the first example as I feel it represents the poorer people more accurately but then used average in the second as i CBF looking for the 1975 median fig when average shows up on the first result

average is 75K for Full time workers.

of all workers it;s 57 and change.

and we were dissing maccas employees so assumed it was all employees not full time.

well for starters not many singles buy property that's a reality and has been for last couple decades. Secondly when your mum bought I bet she didn't think it was 'cheap' or 'easy'

amen dezzmang.

No. It was an expensive house then too. My point is the comparison (then to now)

Fair call. I used average full time as the comparison

What was the multiple of wage tho to prove point ?

Yeah basically. Just to illustrate how the same house has become unaffordable on average wage. Obviously good capital gains in Brighton but it was a premium suburb back then too

Shhh you work for a bank lol

So much fuss over house prices.. as the baby boomers die off and bequeath their estates to the gen Y flogs, order will be restored

That's my plan riiiiiight there lol

    • What copper washer do you guys use on the bleeder bolts? The existing one I have I had no idea where to find it in a local store, I did buy some online but that are only 1mm thick whereas my old one is 2mm+ thick and when I put the new washer out and squeeze the top radiator hose I can hear a bit of air but not with the old one. Does this matter? The new one doesn't leak, but the inner diameter is a bit loose whereas the old one threads on the bolt.
    • Howdy all, after being out a few weeks ago on a spirited drive in my GTR I have 2 issues that oddly have appeared at the same time. Whilst accelerating quickly through the gears all of a sudden i’ve lost power at the top of third gear (below redline around 6000rpm) for no obvious reason.    From that point onwards the car has been running rich on idle, won’t really rev under load without a ton of black smoke and the odd backfire, and dying as a pull up to a set of lights unless I keep the revs up around 1500rpm. In addition when shutting down the car that same night (I was 10 minutes from home) I noticed one of the turbos was significantly noisy on wind down when shutting off the engine. After letting the car cool down overnight it starts up fine, although once it gets to temp the revs start to creep up and down, the exhaust is darker than it should be and it also sounds like it’s running rich (fat note) I’ve put a new set of plugs in it - no change, the old plugs all seemed OK with two of them being somewhat richer/fueled up than the other 3 with 1 being borderline. I’ve smoked tested the intake system via the front of the Turbos, found a split vacuum hose going to the factory boost gauge sender, which I have since replaced.  Also found another leak on the gasket coming off the rear turbo outlet, have also replaced this. After fixing both of these leaks - still have the running rich issue. I’ve also tried another pair of AFM’s - no change here After pulling off the front turbo intake pipes, there is obvious shaft play in the front turbo, which now hisses loudly on light revvs although I can’t see why this would make the car run funny even under idle. I’m curious to know why it’s running rich before I potentially replace/rebuild turbos. The car is completely stock <50,000kms  other than an exhaust. Oil and coolant are all clear. I haven’t bothered with coil packs as it looks like they won’t be the issue due to condition of the plugs. Any help appreciated as I cry myself to sleep!
    • No probs at all. I used to love trying to dig up obscure info for those in need where possible going back 20+ years on SAU.  I did have another look and couldn't come up with any closer match. I'm leaning towards those skirts in your first pic are custom fitments, cut down/extended or from another car entirely and modded to fit an R34 sedan. I would've thought someone in Japan had them and taken a photo at some stage over the last 2 decades but there's nothing. Someone out there must know surely.
    • Welcome mate. Any pics? Even with a DE I'd be well happy if I had that as a 1st car.
