Birds. According to the news if you wait a bit these suburbs are likely to have a lot of people at risk of defaulting on their home loans.

Derrimut, Point Cook, Werribee, Cranbourne, Craigieburn

Lots of new homes and new estates in these areas...guessing people who used first home benefits to get into the market and borrowing near their max.

House market is messed up but owning one isn't for everyone at any stage of their life.

 

Sounds like there is Per User Shaping and quota...

If you're going through 500mb in 5 minutes, turn down the quality of the video until it all looks like japanese porn.

It happens on my phone and laptop, regardless of usage.

And why would I be able to download a 100mb file at full speed, but not able to load IMDb or Google at the same time?

YouTube defaults to 360p or lower because of poor buffering

seems like its pretty solid at 0.045. An order there will probably sit there for a week or more until theres a dump for no reason.

still got a while to go. I'll sit and wait till after tax time. No more buying for me. Need to focus on my MMA gambling side gig. live betting online is quite lucrative.

No rush, results aren't due until late June anyway. It will probably ramp up prior to that though on expectations and people taking positions, so my entry is looking st around mid June or before if I can get my 4.3 order through. It's looking doubtful though; order expires next week. Definitely sunk from the 4.9 we saw pre-spud and I think it will hit 4.4 again in the meantime, maybe even 4.3 but 4.5 is yes probably a good floor we can agree on.

not sure what source is stating point cook highly unlikely.

The bigger issue is people thinking they can borrow to their absolute limit when credit is cheap. But ignore the fact they clearly can't afford it when rates go up.

I don't know how this happens in Australia anyway. From what I've seen, using all the banks' and lenders' calculators on their websites, they seem only prepared to lend you at most an amount with a repayment rate of around 60% your after tax income - basically budgeting/assuming my expenses on my behalf, when the reality is, rent aside, I'm capable of saving easily 80% my monthly income. Some calculators did not reduce the total lend amount until I put in $1500+ of monthly expenses...

So unless you lose your job I don't know how people are defaulting unless degenerate alcoholism / gambling population who can't control their spending. Having kids could explain a good chunk of it, but shit...not everyone can afford those either.

I think this is a big part of it.

you look at it now and your both kid free, earning good income no worries.

kid comes along, loose one income for a period plus extra bills, is that 80% still correct then? prob not.

 

And unfortunately for some these days it's a choice of house or kids.

 

I'd be curious to know the % of disability welfare people and age groups vs somewhere like UK or Canada. There seem to be a lot of able bodied people around who seem to choose not to work... I know a lot of people can't work, but them seem to be a lot who can.
I guy I used to know had short term memory loss from a motorbiking accident, was on the pension and occasionally do labour cashies. His stories of his previous jobs just sounded like he was being a difficult ass hole who would argue with people, so was easier to not work...

LSE. currently we follow them.

LSE finished down lastnight and we were even at the start of the day

19mil traded just about worthy of a speeding ticket, something is going on - serious movement, a pump and dump or leaks

Beat a ZX10 and an R1 to the speed limit...don't see how this is possible when my R1 used to eat everything up, even with a shitty launch. They were certainly trying though :/

1. They weren't trying

2. They're shit riders

One of the above, obviously as you know those bikes are capable of a 10sec flat (maybe even 9s)

I'm gonna go with shit riders

I'm usually focused on the road ahead for such events, but def heard that R1 revving. Odd in itself cause 1st gear tops out at 160+ 

3rd possibility...mocked up litre bikes or...good guy Gregs who try to give other people narrow victories? lol

    • Hi, i’m making a rb25det coil loom for Vag short coil. Can anybody tell me which Ecu signal wire belong to coil number 1 and 2,3,4,5,6? The connecting switch in above pic is 8 wire i think white is for +12v and black for earth.
    • Was there ever a model of the Stagea m35 that didnt have a badge on the grill? I thought I saw that somewhere, some aero edition or something? I cant find it again? davemoto
    • Its a 2002 vr-x four VQ25DET, silver. Coil overs, lowered, polished alloys and sport exhaust. Bit of a project, was sitting in a shed for a while but runs and drives great.
    • I wasn’t able to replicate the sound anymore. It was a one time sound so maybe it was just coincidence but it was like small pebbles being dropped in a coke can.   should I try cleaning the MAF? It could be it’s functioning but dirty? I don’t know.
    • Update 4: Hi all. The car drives again! Haven't driven for long, only to store it in the garage again, but the test drive was successful. The coolant and oil leaks seem to be fixed for now. Temps on the engine were also very good, while moving I never even saw 80C water during the approx. 30 minute drive. Ate up all the coolant in the reservoir though so will have to fill that even more when I go to the car next time. One thing that pisses me off is that the RPM gauge is still f**ked, I even resoldered the board twice and used copper paste on the silly screws that are used as connections. Next time I take it out I'll take apart the board and fit new components, I'll see if I can get a replacement IC for it.  I have an appointment set for 22nd of September for the engine tune to 370hp. Alignment also still needs to be done. My hope is that I can get all the legal stuff over with by the end of this season. Anyone of you have advice regarding intercoolers? Currently there is an APEXI core fitted, one of those weird hybrid ones, 600x270x76. I don't think it's bad but it's not new and now I still have the chance to change it now to legally include it in the paperwork. Only issue is that the only options that would arrive in time are a HKS Type R intercooler or generic Ebay spec intercoolers comparable to a JustJap one. Ideally I'd order a Plazmaman but it takes over a month to receive which would mean making the car legal has to wait until next season. Would love to hear some input on this. Same story for my injectors, the previous owner was a nunce and put ID 1050x on the engine. They work but are obviously not ideal at "normal" power levels. But I don't see a reason to change them unless the tuner says it's necessary. I read online before buying a different exhaust that the top secret style rear diffusers won't fit due to the size of the rear resonators. My buddy and I made it work by slightly "adjusting the shape" of the mounting bracket and making some spacers out of 3d print for the mounting bolts. Fits like a charm. Just putting this here in case someone has this problem. Even the hefty HKS Silent Hi Power rear can fits without hitting anything.
