That doesn't really help the situation for people who can't find jobs...will make it worse if they gotta pay more. Need to pull hecs funding out of industries with an oversupply of candidates, like engineering; a loan scheme should be used to draw prospects towards jobs in need of more candidates and away from the overpopulated areas that result in people being jobless and on welfare with no quick way of paying back the debt.

Except you can't predict where the industry or demand will be in 3 to 4 years.

Engineers who started their degrees four years ago were in the boom times, when they've finished the boom was over.

I started my engineering degree in hopes of working for Toyota/ford/Holden. Then recession happened in my last year & they all shut down.

exactlly.

for me it was Comp Sci and the dot com boom.

I was lucky enough to get a job about 3 months b4 it kicked in, after leaving uni 12 months early.

those that started with me and got their degree, bad luck.

That's a reasonable point but people study endlessly because the can and it's free and get bs degrees and have no thoughts of paying hecs back. There should be at minimum and incentive to pay it back faster ie 10% discount

the numbers of permanent students is tiny, those there for like 10 years are usually getting Phd's and such and will earn it back in the log run.

yes there a few that don't want to work but it's easier to be on the dole with much less work.

as for the discount if it still like when I was paying it back if you make lump sum payments on top of the stuff coming out of your salary then yes there is a discount. used my first couple bonus at work to kill mine off.

oh and it hasn't bee called hecs for years, it HELP now and your all showing your age.

A good point.

You may not be able to predict demand (to a degree you can; what a pun!), but you can certainly count the number of enrolments and be aware of big trends in favoured courses or career paths. I'm not sure how the qualification process goes to decide which course is hecs eligible, but surely a government department has a say in that - yet it's the universities spitting out places and degrees like nobody's business.

It's pretty dumb to let people start a degree during a boom when it's not expected to last - that's a recipe for debt that won't be repaid anytime quickly and another person on centrelink.

    • It's funny, as Ive seen plenty of people use them in cheap builds on YT. And they actually go okay, even though a lot of other maxspeedingrods stuff is terrible. Those turbos seem reliable enough, the only part being, a good quality turbo that is "identical" to it, will out perform it day in and day out. In both a lower boost threshold, and the ability to flow more air at the same boost pressure. As a cheap cheap replacement, not a terrible choice. For cheap and shouldn't blow in a day, not terrible (like other eBay/Temu turbos) for low cost and still decent performance, that's where the question comes in to play from the results I've seen. I'd actually find it hilarious to buy one, and strap it to a paddock basher or some other cheap as POS originally NA car, and send it to the moon!
    • The maxpeedingrods turbo is cheap and bolts on to stock parts. I think you just need a bigger silicone coupler for the intake. Its a cheap china turbo, but it's been running on mine for almost 3 years at 16-19 psi.
    • What do they look like right after you've tried to start it with everything connected? Also post photos of what they actually look like.
    • Also wanted to say, my new spark plugs are blackened looks like it's very rich. I have splitfire coilpacks but stock coilpack loom and ignitor. I tried directly grounding the ignitor ground to body as well.
