Yeah the centurion card is a freaking joke. They say you need to spend $250k personal on another amex etc but I don't buy it. I reckon they will give one to anyone stupid enough to pay the rediculous fees. When I was working at Cosi soooooo many people had them.

yeh depends how you use it i guess a mate of mine not on a black but charges literally everything to his credit card for points pays it off every month so no issues there but gets free flights and lots of perks but between him and his wife i'd say they'd be well into $400k + territory

That's how a CC should be used....

they say they want $250k pa personal expenditure for centurion (no business expenses)....

that's $5k a week spending on personal shit which is why I think it's a bit of an exaggeration

if it was business expenses that's easy

OK property specialists....

Hoping to move forward with this land purchase in next few weeks.

what sort of questions should I be asking real estate agent prior to going to the bank?

WHat other stuff should I get ready prior to talking to the bank.

(other than the obvious, pay slips, car valuations, proof of deposit..)

Your first mistake is talking to a bank.

Go to a mortgage broker (mortgage choice).

They will run multiple scenarios based on your assets/liabilities and let you know the best one.

yes and no.... they will always be influenced more by their commissions than your rate

They show you all the options with their software. They may sway you to a smaller bank but the final call is yours.

I made sure they worked out the best deal with the bank(s) I wanted to do business with.

If at the end of the day you come out with the lowest interest rate at the best value (LVR) their commission is not a problem.

    • If you take the top half of the intake off you can unbolt the flap off the shaft and leave the shaft in there blocking the hole. Then you can remove the little vacuum canister off from under the manifold and get a spare vacuum line to run to the ECU. I can take some photos of it later. Probably best to get the vacuum source to the ECU sorted first though. Mine all worked mint with the base map from the GTT an I've pretty much let the closed loop sort the fueling and took 1 degree out of the whole timing map.
    • This IS something you also have to configure in Haltech (or at least I did in the past when going from onboard-to-ECU map sensor and an external MAP sensor in haltech land).
    • I'm hoping it's something as simple as the ECU is looking for an external MAP sensor, but he is trying to use the onboard MAP sensor.
    • You won't need to do that if your happy to learn to tune it yourself. You 100% do not need to do that. It is not part of the learning process. It's not like driving on track and 'finding the limit by stepping over the limit'. You should not ever accidently blow up an engine and you should have setup the ECU's engine protection to save you from yourself while you are learning anyway. Plenty of us have tuned their own cars, myself included. We still come here for advice/guidance/new ideas etc.  What have you been doing so far to learn how to tune?
    • Put the ECU's MAP line in your mouth. Blow as hard as you can. You should be able to see about 10 kPa, maybe 15 kPa positive pressure. Suck on it. You should be able to generate a decent vacuum to about the same level also. Note that this is only ~2 psi either way. If the MAP is reading -5 psi all the time, ignition on, engine running or not, driving around or not, then it is severely f**ked. Also, you SHOULD NOT BE DRIVING IT WITHOUT A LOAD REFERENCE. You will break the engine. Badly.
