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.

This is where the cost of a Tax accountant that knows what they are doing outweighs the costs   FYI $300/h

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.

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

      RB25DE NEO with Haltech ECU

      By Murray_Calavera · Posted

      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.

      Could be correct. Meter might be that far out. Compare against a known 5 ohm 1% resistor.

      @Murray_Calavera  If I were an expert I wouldn't be in here looking for assistance.  I am extremely computer literate, have above average understanding on how things should be working and how they should tie together.  If I need to go to a professional tuner so be it, but I'd much rather learn and do things myself even if it means looking for some guidance along the way and blowing up a few engines. @GTSBoy  I was hoping it would be as simple as a large vacuum leak somewhere but I'm unable to find anything, all lines seem to be well capped or going where they need to be, and when removed there is vacuum felt on the tube.  It would be odd for the Haltech built in MAP to be faulty, the GTT tune I imported had it enabled from the start, I incorrectly assumed it was reading a signal from the stock MAP, but that doesn't exist.  After running a vacuum hose to the ECU the signal doesn't change more than 0.2 in either direction.   I'll probably upload a video of my settings tomorrow, as it stands I'm able to daily drive, but getting stuttering when giving it gas from idle, so pulling away from lights is a slow process of revving it up and feathering the clutch until its moving, then it will accelerate fine.  It sounds like I need to get to the bottom of the manifold pressure issue, but the ignition timing section is most intimidating to me and will probably let a pro do that part.  Tomorrow I'll try a different vacuum line to T off of, with any luck I selected one that was already bypassed during the DBW swap.  (edit: I went out and did it right now, the line I had chosen did appear to have no vacuum on it, it used to go to the front of the intake, I've now completely blocked that one off at the bracket that holds several vacuum lines by the firewall.  I T'd into the vacuum line that goes from that bracket to the vacuum pump at the front of the car, but no change in the MAP readings).  Using the new vacuum line that has obvious vacuum on the hose, im still only getting readings between -6.0 and -5.2.  I'm wondering why the ECU was detecting -5.3 when nothing was connected to the MAP nipple and ECU MAP selected as the source. @feartherb26  I do have +T in the works but wanted to wait until Spring to start with that swap since this is my good winter AWD vehicle.  When removing the butterfly, did it leave a bunch of holes in the manifold that you needed to plug?  I thought about removing it but assumed it would be a mess.   I notice no difference when capping the vacuum line to it or letting it do its thing.  This whole thing has convinced me to just get a forward facing manifold when the time comes though.

      Update: tested my spark plugs that are supposed to be 5ohms with a 10% deviation and one gave me a 0 ohms reading and the rest were 3.9ohm<, so one bad and the others on their way out.
