you don't actually think its a myth do you? like seriously its documented concrete evidence factual information that labor are hopeless with the budget.

Of course it's a myth.

If you are to look at the budget movements over the last 30 years as opposed to simply who had a dedicit/surplus in what year, you see the 2 major issues were precipitated by external causes (recession then gfc) and that after the global recession of the late 80's labor brought the budget back into line gradually and Howard merely inherited a surplus. In fact if you draw it as a line graph it doesn't actually change until well into howards reign.

Treasurers are just glorified puppets, they don't actually balance the books, they take the credit/discredit.

The guys behind the scenes doing the real work are just guns for hire and in many cases have worked for both parties. Some of howards advisors actually worked for rudd afterwards for eg

actually labor are worse and managing the budget some good info here, doesn't say liberal are perfect by any means but as a direct comparison labor run larger deficits and smaller surpluses.

Woke up middle of night from a sharp pain. Something bit me whilst I was asleep. Had to search my room for a snake or spider. I didn't die so wasn't poisonous.

Have been multiple incidents with others being bit by snakes in their beds.

Life in the Pilbara...they don't mention this in the interview/contract.

Yes historically that is accurate. But the trends are more important. Let's not forget how much the LNP love to blame labor for the current trend.

All the labor deficits were on their way to correction, as were all the liberal ones. Also that chart kinda misses the current clusterf**k.

Long and the short of it is they are no different. The thing that f**ks us up internally are the constant elections

wtf is with morons doing 60km/h through the whole Burnley tunnel? It changes to 80 about 200 metres into it, yet three lanes of traffic manage to ignore the 3 sets of signs saying 80, feathering their brakes around 58km/h. So rage inducing.

Somehow they notice the 80 signs after the tunnel and the 60 before it, but nothing in between?

Everyone is paranoid/scared driving in a tunnel. Use it all the time when visiting the South-East burbs & get stuck each time.

God forbid you change lanes in a tunnel!

Not sure if your area sees white tails, but if a white tail gets you, you won't cop it bad for a couple of days...be like a mosquito bite until then.

lol thanks, it flared up & caused a rash around it but in the morning its all gone bar the bite-mark. Might have to search the room again tonight.

Did a geadgasket remember? What happened to VWL head job?

Sub 7.5 sec pass on a motorbike is friggin crazy, balls of steel.

Also watching 2x XU falcons run 7.2's neck and neck. Full body, over 1500kgs, twin turbo.

Over to Barry's for a metal gasket, ARP studs timing belt / water pump. A freshen up here and there.

Was looking at that RB25/30 in for sale section for $3000, seemed too good to pass up, but in the end it's lucky dip, as is any second hand engine. My bottom end was running flawlessly and I was happy with power level so the argument was if I could get out of it for a couple of grand and have the work guaranteed then that's the sensible option. Engine will be more track prepared once done and I'll look at an oil cooler / alum radiator too.

    • Initially I thought having a pair of Recaro seats would be a big bonus, it turns out these do get a little uncomfortable on long journeys (my fault, not the seat). I had a look through the GSM Performance website at reclining seats and booked an appointment to visit their show room. I got the Recaro Sportster CS for the R34 from here, was very happy with the service received so of course a re-visit was in order. Unfortunately the two Corbeau seats I had chosen aren't on display but they had 4 other options available. Two seats dug into my back, one dug into my legs and the other was perfect. I also found out that Recaro seats use a larger bolt pattern so some adaption was required. Luckily GSM offer some universal adaptors that should solve this problem. I searched the interwebs for price comparisons and Corbeau themselves were the cheapest at £300 cheaper (for the pair). I asked GSM if they could price match, unfortunately they couldn't. I later received an email saying Corbeau would honour them the same discount, but the purchase was already made. I did however order the brackets from GSM, both arrived on the same day. I started with the passenger side seat, knowing this was going to be a little trial and error. There are 3 mounting holes at the front and 2 at the rear on these JURAN Racing seat rails.  With the adaptor brackets mounted, the allen cap bolts started to push into the seat, NOT GOOD!  The rear mounting holes lined up but there were issues at the front. The holes were 1/2 hole out, so the brackets got a tickle with the drill to modify the holes. The supplied bolts weren't going to be long enough and a spacer was needed to stop the adaptor bars from bending. A local fasteners company supplied be with some nylon spacers and longer bolts (M8x30, although these will be replaced with 35mm long shortly) A before and after I pre-drilled the front bracket before making a start on the driver's seat to save some time. And in no time at all that was in the car too. The all black seats have transformed the interior and these are MUCH more comfortable. The only downside with the new Corbeau seats is I sit a little higher, but I'll happily accept that over discomfort. The Youtube video can be found here: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=wPyttKPktXA
    • All 3 I guess. The car came with the JASI Aero 4 door Type R Full Kit unpainted so this was one thing at the top of my list to complete then I noticed there were body panels parts for this kit so i picked them up along with some black mesh to fill in the front bumper and front side air vents. car is at a paint and body shop atm completing this work. Next I will be addressing the internal bells and whistles, great summer project I can do with the kids.  full interior removal - ,boys car sound deadening - pads and spray ,boys stereo, sound, lighting - Big 3, GTT or bigger alternator ,kids head lining - dye black add star lighting mod ,daughter. That's it for the next 5-6 months. I have some motor maintenance  work i have to plan out. oil filter relocation, gaskets, mounts. beyond that, mind is starting to turn over if i can use a DET intake plenum, block off turbo ports & pipe in a air intake.      
    • roller coaster of a ride. Alarm system was removed & main harness was repaired where possible. still no fix just random successful starts. moved on to the replacing the ignition switch and relay. well all this troubleshooting & repair has been going on, the car is at a paint and body shop being pushed around.
