Lol.

When I sold my GTR the guy came over from SA, and drove it back nek minit in a few months was back on carsales for 5k more than he bought it off me for.. not sure if he wanted to try and make money or realized it was a bit rusty.

My pay has been super inconsistent this FY so should see a healthy return. Should cover the bill Havoc is going to foot me next week for the pulsar. One of those proper GTR-style, open-chequebook, ass-raping, "just get it done" type of operations.

(Though anything is cheaper than a $900 racepace catch can)

But I though the things happening now were my fault?

For the purposes of this story, yes, of course.

Never missed a beat when I had it. I would consider another evo TBH

I've got one if you're interested.

I'd let it go for a grand less than I bought it for... 'Mates Rates' and all that.

Come at me tax return.. last year had to pay 2.5k with capital gains taxes on shares :( (comm bank, not 88e, do I claim a loss with 88e this year? :P)

Then it's intercooler time :D

I'm due for capital gains. And yes, if you made a loss on shares then claim a capital loss so that it offsets future gains. You can carry forward the loss as long as you keep reporting it each year.

Sold my shares so I could write down a loss, will buy back in EOFY.

Next year start your own charity foundation and funnel money into the local footy team?

Year after that start family trust and funnel money into that?

Stick it to the man, yo

Seems like a lot of work, all for a measly few cents x 10^8

Think I'll just find myself an old rich woman to marry.

Unrelated, does anyone know how to disguise the taste of arsenic? I'm asking for a friend.

Strychnine = fairly tasteless and odourless

I actually recall a story of someone who was being poisoned by their spouse, and because the doses were so low initially, they built up something of an immunity to the particular poison and by the end of it (think they actually survived) the dose they were receiving was enough to kill a horse.

pfft noob

just mute volume. go do something else, come back. repeat. if its a well-designed test you can flick back through previous slides.

I know someone who outsourced their job to India, kept themselves on the payroll and basically passively/lazily worked it - IT related job so they didn't have to be onsite most of the time anyway. They got caught eventually though lol, those outgoing calls to and from Mumbai add up...

Speaking of IT kunce, are any of you/them normal?
Been working at a large data centre since Jan and the amount of f**kin weird f**ks that come in there is astounding. It'd be easier to count the normal-ish ones.

RE: capital gains and losses, clearly I've experienced plenty of the latter...Can you actually claim that as a loss at tax time? Was under the impression you had to pay on gains but just bend over and cop the loss, in typical government rape fashion.

You can claim it as a loss but it doesn't offset your income tax as it's a separate tax to it.

So what happens is, in future if you make a profit (capital gain) on something like property or other shares, the tax you would ordinarily have to pay on that profit can be negated by any losses from previous financial years.

You basically take the loss in the ass until you make a profit and then the loss becomes useful.

Let's say you lose $2k on 88E in one financial year and make 800k on selling your house in another financial year, say 5 years from now, if you kept carrying the loss forward then you won't have to pay capital gains on 2k of your 800k profit.

    • Hi, SteveL Thank you very much for your reply, you seem to be the only person on the net who has come up with a definitive answer for which I am grateful. The "Leak" was more by way of wet bubbles when the pedal was depressed hard by a buddy while trying to gey a decent pedal when bleeding the system having fitted the rebuilt BM50 back in the car, which now makes perfect sense. A bit of a shame having just rebuilt my BM50, I did not touch the proportioning valve side of things, the BM50 was leaking from the primary piston seal and fluid was running down the the Brake booster hence the need to rebuild, I had never noticed any fluid leaking from that hole previously it only started when I refitted it to the car. The brake lines in the photo are "Kunifer" which is a Copper/Nickel alloy brake pipe, but are only the ones I use to bench bleed Master cylinders, they are perfectly legal to use on vehicles here in the UK, however the lines on the car are PVF coated steel. Thanks again for clearing this up for me, a purchase of a new BMC appears to be on the cards, I have been looking at various options in case my BM50 was not repairable and have looked at the HFM BM57 which I understand is manufactured in Australia.  
    • Well the install is officially done. Filled with fluid and bled it today, but didn't get a chance to take it on a test drive. I'll throw some final pics of the lines and whatnot but you can definitely install a DMAX rack in an R33 with pretty minor mods. I think the only other thing I had to do that isn't documented here is grind a bit of the larger banjo fitting to get it to clear since the banjos are grouped much tighter on the DMAX rack. Also the dust boots from a R33 do not fit either fyi, so if you end up doing this install for whatever reason you'll need to grab those too. One caveat with buying the S15 dust boots however is that the clamps are too small to fit on the R33 inner tie rod since they're much thicker so keep the old clamps around. The boots also twist a bit when adjusting toe but it's not a big deal. No issues or leaks so far, steering feels good and it looks like there's a bit more lock now than I had before. Getting an alignment on Saturday so I'll see how it feels then but seems like it'll be good to go       
    • I don't get in here much anymore but I can help you with this.   The hole is a vent (air relief) for the brake proportioning valve, which is built into the master cylinder.    The bad news is that if brake fluid is leaking from that hole then it's getting past the proportioning valve seals.   The really bad news is that no spare parts are available for the proportioning valve either from Nissan or after market.     It's a bit of a PITA getting the proportioning valve out of the master cylinder body anyway but, fortunately, leaks from that area are rare in my experience. BTW, if those are copper (as such) brake lines you should get rid of them.    Bundy (steel) tube is a far better choice (and legal  in Australia - if that's where you are).
