Why are limes so damn expesnive at the moment?

$10 p/kilo at the spudshed, or $1.20 each at coles (at about 100 grams each thats $12 p/kilo!)

What gives Perth?

I diy for my work / daily car but won't take risk for my 35 [emoji22] too complicated ! How did you go with fixing your door? Should we organise some fund raising car wash towards your door ?

I've been quoted $1000 to get it fixed which is going to take me about a month to get, mortgage and bills and what not. I'm not going to ask for donations or a fund-raiser for something like this, it's purely on me and my responsibility. That being said If anyone needs some odd jobs done or is willing to pay me to wash their cars I'd be delighted to... Or if some one would buy my subs/amp ahaha. Other than that the cars just benched until I can afford to fix it/change the tires.

Thanks for the thoughts though.

buy a tree and keep in a pot. the dwarf ones at bunnings are around $20-30 and dont grow very big.

graft a lemon branch onto a lime and have both fruit from the same tree

speaking of fruit ive now got orange, lemonade, pink lady, granny smith, mulberry and 2 Nashi trees in the ground

want apricot, cherry and a dwarf avocado tree next

Canningvale markets on Sunday mornings have better/healthier and cheaper fruit trees than Bunnings IMO

Or even Marangaroo on Saturday mornings.

i went up to guildford garden centre who seems to specialise in dwarf fruit trees for some of them

That's fine too =) Bunnings charges wayyyy too much for what you get. Just sayin

actually i shopped around a bit and i didnt think they were too bad,

i bought citrus from there and it was in good shape and $20 each for dwarfs

i only went to guildford cos they were the only ones who seem to do Nashi pears and their website shows stock levels which is handy

Hmm interesting. I have been looking at the plants there for ages and always found them to be quite pricey. Maybe I haven't been looking at fruit ones for awhile. Or the Bunnings near me is just shit with their quality of plants. Good to know about Guildford though, might take a look if they have anything I want hehe

$28 for a lime tree, if I kept it alive it would pay off.

How hard is it to graft a lemon branch on?

yeah fruit wise they are well priced and both bunnings in bunno they are in good shape. local nurseries dont do dwarfs

not sure how they compare with trees

    • Thanks mate, couldn't find in VIC, ended up ordering one from NSW, getting rwc to get new plates and registration done.
    • Before all the EFR fan boys come in, have a look at: https://www.garrettmotion.com/racing-and-performance/performance-catalog/turbo/g-series-ii-g30-825-58mm/ It also comes in a T4 1.06 divided housing. I would dare say if you want response & also decent power, this thing would chop.   AND apologies, just re-read your post, you've already bought the turbo... whatever you do, make sure you stick with divided housing and proper twin scroll manifold.
    • People have got to stop doing that. ShatGPT is not a search engine. It is a hallucination factory.   I also would recommend the 1.05. The .83 will "work" for you , in that it will be more responsive, but I think you'll find that it won't be anywhere near as good running it out to 8000rpm as the big housing will be.
    • Decided for the first time ever I would tow my car TO the track day on the same working theory as bringing tools and spares "if I have it I wont need it, but if I leave it behind i will 100% need it" all setup and ready to go out and try these A050 for the first time First session showed I needed to stiffen up the dampers a touch but still managed a few 1:21's without much effort. things were looking good. Came in a dropped the tyres down  to 26/28 as they had gotten to 35/33C from 22C cold The first lap of session two I managed to drop into 1:20's. Then in the second lap into the second session. Coming into T3 and I suddenly lost brake pedal followed by some huge rear end vibrations and scraping sounds. Got it back into the pits after session ended and found this. in the attached video, all of the wobble is in the hub its self, wheel is mint, and bearing feels tight. lKXLqpd - Imgur.mp4   Deciding it was a bent spindle I tried to find bearing/hub assembly locally but was unsuccessful so it was loaded back onto the trailer i luckily brought it on to drag it back home
