So a massive gate and massive sliding/folding glass doors across the whole back of the place?

It seems like a fine stage from which to show off your efforts in the gym, at least thats the first reason you would want it that comes to mind.

small side garden I see to work on.

 

the empty lot next door is that part of the park or will some-one build on it? 

Park - only have one neighbour.

first home buyers duty reduction. you get 50% off if it your primary place of residence.

 

if you put the full 80% down them you don;t need to pay loan mortgage insurance.

 

simples

 

 

You mean 20%

 

If you put down 80% up front on your first house you have done well.

 

Going 20% deposit also gets you lower interest rates on top of not having to pay mortgage insurance.

With this I got the NAB first home buyer rate which is apparently the best in the market right now - fixed for two years. Also get about $1800 worth of shopping vouchers.

Oh shiiiit

Don't tell him/her that you earned the money with CSGO skins

 

I prefer independent jewellers (bcoz hipster) because the people and artists actually know what they're doing, and they have no reason to lie to you, the items do all the talking so to speak. It's not just a spec sheet.

 

I've used e.g. etal in the CBD a couple of times. More designer stuff, but guaranteed unique and brownie points for the wimminz (compliments and envy galore amongst peers). Also got quality custom necklace from Ralf Finch in The Basin (chose a design, picked necklace and got to choose the pearls to use).

 

Edit: diamond earrings is a tough choice. Easily lost, small, mostly are studs so super subtle.

"Pearl necklace" sure sure 

Ok cool so there's no decent online shop gotta get off my ass and go somewhere? 

Mortgage insurance is proportional to your LVR and there's a law of diminishing returns to it, which starts to get awfully shitty when borrowing at high LVRs.

Here's a good example - you have 70k saved up as a first home buyer, it could be allocated as such:

A. 600k property, 5% deposit of 30k, LMI of 26k, stamp duty 15k = initial upfront of ~70k and your LVR is 95% on 570k borrowed

B. 500k property, 10% deposit of 50k, LMI of 9k, stamp duty 11k = initial upfront of ~71k and your LVR is 90% on 450k borrowed

So whilst 100k difference between the purchase price of the two places, the more expensive one actually requires you to borrow 120k more due to money spent on LMI (and some for the extra stamp duty).

One loophole you could use to avoid this - get a relative to borrow and "gift" you enough to make up a 20% deposit and cover the stamp duty - you finance the other 80% = no mortgage insurance and you just service both loans. Or they can go guarantor on the loan and you technically don't need any deposit or LMI.

With this I got the NAB first home buyer rate which is apparently the best in the market right now - fixed for two years. Also get about $1800 worth of shopping vouchers.

 

I'm on 3.81% at the moment, zero annual fees.

 

Looks like the comparison rate for that 3.69% deal is 4.38%

 

Pretty sure ubank and loans.com.au are still the actual comparable cheapest as they have no annual fees on their variable rate loans, with a once off few hundred $$ fee if you want to go fixed rate. But you have to have minimum 20% deposit to get those deals.

Where's a good place to buy some diamond earrings? 

Don't mind spending a bit but not stupid amounts, birthday present.

 

Inb4 subtle, VWL6fig, 800k etc.

Il stick with my pay less interest and fees In the long run than get some vouchers up front plan.

We comparing our loans or what was available to me at the time?

It was available to you too? You said you went in on 20% or more deposit?

 

Talking about the rate; I have no idea when you obtained a loan.

    • If as it's stalling, the fuel pressure rises, it's saying there's less vacuum in the intake manifold. This is pretty typical of an engine that is slowing down.   While typically is agree it sounds fuel related, it really sounds fuel/air mixture related. Since the whole system has been refurbished, including injectors, pump, etc, it's likely we've altered how well the system is delivering fuel. If someone before you has messed with the IACV because it needed fiddling with as the fuel system was dieing out, we need to readjust it back. Getting things back to factory spec everywhere, is what's going to help the entire system. So if it idles at 400rpm with no IACV, that needs raising. Getting factory air flow back to normal will help us get everything back in spec, and likely help chase down any other issues. Back on IACV, if the base idle (no IACV plugged in) is too far out, it's a lot harder for the ECU to control idle. The IACV duty cycle causes non linear variations in reality. When I've tuned the idle valves in the past, you need to keep it in a relatively narrow window on aftermarket ecus to stop them doing wild dances. It also means if your base idle is too low, the valve needs to open too much, and then the smallest % change ends up being a huge variation.
    • I guess one thing that might be wrong is the manifold pressure.  It is a constant -5.9 and never moves even under 100% throttle and load.  I would expect it to atleast go to 0 correct?  It's doing this with the OEM MAP as well as the ECU vacuum sensor. When trying to tune the base map under load the crosshairs only climb vertically with RPM, but always in the -5.9 column.
    • AHHHH gotchaa, I'll do that once I am home again. I tried doing the harness with the multimeter but it seems the car needed a jump, there was no power when it was in the "ON" position. Not sure if I should use car battery jump starter or if its because the stuff that has been disconnect the car just does send power.
    • As far as I can tell I have everything properly set in the Haltech software for engine size, injector data, all sensors seem to be reporting proper numbers.  If I change any injector details it doesnt run right.    Changing the base map is having the biggest change in response, im not sure how people are saying it doesnt really matter.  I'm guessing under normal conditions the ECU is able to self adjust and keep everything smooth.   Right now my best performance is happening by lowering the base map just enough to where the ECU us doing short term cut of about 45% to reach the target Lambda of 14.7.  That way when I start putting load on it still has high enough fuel map to not be so lean.  After 2500 rpm I raised the base map to what would be really rich at no load, but still helps with the lean spots on load.  I figure I don't have much reason to be above 2500rpm with no load.  When watching other videos it seems their target is reached much faster than mine.  Mine takes forever to adjust and reach the target. My next few days will be spent making sure timing is good, it was running fine before doing the ECU and DBW swap, but want to verify.  I'll also probably swap in the new injectors I bought as well as a walbro 255 pump.  
    • It would be different if the sealant hadn't started to peel up with gaps in the glue about ~6cm and bigger in some areas. I would much prefer not having to do the work take them off the car . However, the filler the owner put in the roof rack mount cavities has shrunk and begun to crack on the rail delete panels. I cant trust that to hold off moisture ingress especially where I live. Not only that but I have faded paint on as well as on either side of these panels, so they would need to come off to give the roofline a proper respray. My goal is to get in there and put a healthy amount of epoxy instead of panel filler/bog and potentially skin with carbon fiber. I have 2 spare rolls from an old motorcycle fairing project from a few years back and I think it'd be a nice touch on a black stag.  I've seen some threads where people replace their roof rack delete with a welded in sheet metal part. But has anyone re-worked the roof rails themselves? It seems like there is a lot of volume there to add in some threads and maybe a keyway for a quick(er) release roof rack system. Not afraid to mill something out if I have to. It would be cool to have a cross bar only setup. That way I can keep the sleek roofline that would accept a couple bolts to gain back that extra utility  3D print some snazzy covers to hide the threaded section to be thorough and keep things covered when not using the rack.
