Australian beef going offshore to higher bidders = expensive steak locally

Gonna be a fun future

thus why getting a few acres, fatten my own and getting some-one to slice it up for me..

been checking out VW golfs all day... Mk5 seems a smarter buy than anything else. Mk7 is pretty cheap for a new-ish car but so much crap (read "features") comes with them.

For interior/looks, nothing really competes with VW in the sub $30k hatch market.

Weird forum glitch....

I didn't quote that and don't even know what thread it's from

The "view original" link isn't working either

Weird... its trying to back link to Post #5 of SAU History...

Currently up to Post 7,566,267...

Gotta love self serve wreckers. Low km GDA box & diff with 4.44 final drives and same gearing as v5/v6 STi ~1k worth for $350.

Good gearing and stronger components 2 weeks before deca, splendid.

Do you just do this shit to troll or are you genuinely f**king special?

Literally EVERY OTHER HATCH below 30k is better than a golf. They are f**king abominations.

suggestions?

went to Holden, Nissan, Toyota, Ford, Hyundai, VW today.

Cruze was pretty presentable but i just cant trust it considering how woeful the captiva is. Im not familiar with brand new car shopping, but so much was so stale and cheaply made. You could almost snap all the plastic levers and handles in the toyotas if it was to get caught in your clothing and then saw all the same bits in the 86 :wacko:

No offense but dude your looking what sub 40k? What you expecting

I got to say the qashqai for 40k is damn impressive every possible feature / creature comfort the round view camera is amazing should be on every car IMO.

The buttons & dash are pretty good too for the price point I thought.

I actually reckon my new Lexus is better than the a5 was and comparative to the 4 series a touch nicer perhaps I'm bias though

lol this isn't for me, f**k new cars.

Was helping someone else. Got their heart sold on Mk5 golf, GT V or whatever. Diesel manual. Seems the safest bet of the bunch. I know people have issues with the twin charged and DSG models.

    • Oh, also, forgot to add these photos I believe.
    • Thought i'd update on this. I was able to get in contact with Craig Lieberman and later on Darryl Alison (owner of Kaizo Industries). Darryl was able to help me verify that my car was in fact one of theirs and is helping me find more info on mine !
    • There's restrictor pills in the stock boost control hoses. That's how they set the amount that was bled off and hence the "high" boost setting. The usual mod in the day was to remove it and send the "high" boost setting up to about 14 psi.
    • Thanks Duncan, that's the best info I've read. Furthermore after learning about the PCM programming side controlling the factory boost solenoid, the purpose of the solenoid is to "bleed" boost when pin 25 is earthed, thus allowing spring pressure in the wastegate actuator to overcome diaphragm boost pressure, thus closing or reducing the position of the wastegate flap creating more boost as the turbo is able to spin faster. It's pretty cool to see a designated Pill to do exactly this, would have liked to have seen it with a tiny filter over the end for those moments in vacuum.  The constant bleed pill has now been removed completely from the system and solenoid boost control has been restored once again.   Case closed 😂
    • The wideband reading is meaningless if it's not running. Why are you using shitty old sidefeeds on any engine, let alone a Neo? What manifold and fuel rail are you using to achieve that? Beyond that, can't help you with AEM stuff as I've never been their ECU/CAS combo.
