yeah i know. maybe i should sue CBA, like that guy who sued Crown for making him spend a few million on a gambling binge.

Card minimum was $4k. i asked for over that and got almost 4x the card minimum.

if you go for other credit, including home loans it will reduce your serviceability significantly.

 

Significantly is a big call

Ill let Hamish answer this

But didn't effect me at all and i just refinanced last month

They look at the full amount of the CC being serviced at a fairly high rate, close to 20%.

at $27k that's $450 just in interest each month.

So even though the limit is unused they assume repayments are to be made as if it has been drawn in full?

 

Well that's intradasting

What difference does it make if you don't actually use the limit?
Effects nobody
How do you pay extra interest to a bank if you haven't drawn the funds?

When applying for home loan your credit card limit is used against you in your borrowing power. The smaller the limit the more you can mortgage

Any line of credit facilities are considered as if fully drawn, as you have the ability to do so without notice

I use my Amex 95% of the time....don't know where you're trying to shop but they probably serve coffee in a f**kin jar so wouldn't expect much from them..

As for credit card limits, it's really not an issue. If you're going for a loan you decrease the limit, get the loan, increase the limit again. The cba lender chick did it for me off her own back... Literally zero effort on my part. And I mean literally in the true sense of the word, not literally in the way every f**king idiot uses it these days

f**king LOL almost spat my coffee out to that first line 

I find that it's accepted probably half the time I would like to use it... and even when it's available it's often not contactless.

getting a card out of my wallet is so 2015

    • 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).
