I got nothing but praise for Internodes customer service and billing/sales. Now that i have an NBN box installed i would switch back to them in a heartbeat
Though guy at work is trying to convince me MyRepublic's $60 high speed NBn unlimited plan is the way to go

Search whirlpool for CVC for each isp. That's what you are paying for now as it's all running on the same infrastructure.
Car washing stuff. OMG got onto a telstra tech that know's what he's talking about :O 

 

Tier 1 is offshore. Tier 2/3 are onshore to deal with any fall-outs/exceptions/complaints 

In the case of billing disputes or customer complaints where you are ready to walk most banks/isp/telco's have a Business Saves team which are responsible for convincing potential leavers to stay. They usually have more authority to provide compensation/escalations. To get transferred through to them however requires you to trigger some keywords/questions to validate your intention to move.

Pretty sure the G6E T has the same engine and gearbox, but no LSD and softer suspension?

2300kg is an impressive tow weight, compared to 1600 for most commodores unless you get a wagon and calais

Pretty much yeah just the diff.

I THINK even the suspension is the same. 

The 6 speed auto is a great gearbox, and as you said has good towing weight. 

Don't forget they all use 5x114.3 too so you can wack on some spare JDM wheels yo. if you ever need/want to. 

How much you looking to spend? I'll keep my eye on the club fg group..

Chasing a Mk2 for ~$25-28... Specd up interior is a requirement now that I've looked into the differences you mentioned.

I'm alright with some mild mods as long as they're subtle and it comes with a RWC.

Yeh that'll get you a nice mark2, the touch screen is a nice touch, they have the projector style head lights too.

Must get leather though, as all the door trims etc look wayyy better. 

Mark2 look alright in white, those are stock wheels too

Do falcons without upgraded sound system still have room to install an aftermarket sub? Plenty of gear to fit falcons floating around. Im sure itd be cheaper than factory options, probably no difference if secondhand.

 

Got done speeding in the domain tunnel when it was at 60km/h. Cameras adjust with speed, eh? well there ya go. Gonna try for the good behavior letter and hope it lets me off. Haven't had an offense in around 3 years I think.

You broke the speed limit, why do you think you should get off

one of my employees got done for a high level drink driving offence in sydney on new years, plead guilty and lost his license for 12 months.
believing it only affects sydney, continued driving and got picked up in a set up, then got caught again the next day.
hes still driving... and reckons 12 months is too harsh.
well, wait till court day mate... i reckon hes gonna cop an extra year for the two unlicensed driving offenses as well.

I think the standard sound system doesn't have tweeter or sub grills in the pillars / parcel shelf, and also no amp. 

Mines premium has the 2 front 2 back, sub in parcel shelf, amp, and 2 tweeters up front. I'm sure you could fit your own stuff but imo the premium sound is fine if you find the right car. Took me a while to find a GS fully optioned already at a showroom in black, finally found one and bought it 

Cannot stress enough how bad the cloth interior vs leather looks though. 

Simon, try find a cheap GS 5.0l? :P nothing good on carsales at the moment though

standard system sucks massivly, I've repalced them all with 6inch co axials in front and 6x9 at rear, much improved (not much space for a sub in the cabin...)

 

also added the aux connection as the radio in the BA has shocking reception, thus the external antenna in the FG

    • What 1.5 way? There's no such thing really as a 1.5 way, just different ways of explaining 2 ways with different ramp rates. HOWEVER. In any driving in a straight line your 1.5 or 2 or 1.7 way should have no clunking at all. With the clutch fully depressed the diff should be silent (unless it's welded but I'm assuming it's not). Something aint right here.
    • Clutch is a spec brand, new clutch system,( PP, flywheel, friction disc, etc. pull type) installed 100 miles ago, with no problems.
    • looking for some help and maybe some insight on others experience with a new LSD. R34 GT ran and drove beautifully, but always alot of grip loss due to the open R200 rear end, so I just installed a new 1.5 LSD way into the stock open R200 for a ER34. Simple. Everything seemed right. I test drove for the first time this weekend. as I started to back out the garage the first time slowly with tires straight it sounded and felt like I had a loose or half disconnected drive shaft...that was clucking around loose and shaking entire vehicle, and making it feel like the trans clutch was spontaneously slipping then grabbing very roughly while just letting out pedal slowly. I backed it out went to pull forward with the same noise, shake and slip grab feeling with hesitation, I turned the tires to back out more and then pulled ahead some same thing but worst because of added wheel resistance (which that I expected) puzzled … pulling it back in checking everything over and finding nothing wrong, I tried it the next day. same thing, couldn’t believe how it shook everything again making a terrible noise and making it feel like the trans clutch was slipping and grabbing, but I got it out of garage into the driveway, got it straight, drove forward and then reveres a few times in a straight line everything shaking , causing what felt like clutch slip and grab every time, sounded like right behind front driver tire and I could feel it in the floor board with my feet,... worst right when beginning to let clutch pedal out to engage slightly, shuttering and sounding terrible along the way…I managed to slowly get down the road, babying it the whole way, once I was rolling (out of 1st) seemed to be better and between shifts, then clutch felt closer to normal…not slip/ grab etc., but back down to any stop, straight road or turning, same thing. Made no difference if all tires were straight or if I was turning. All other gauge read out correct. with in 2 miles as planned I reached the empty parking lot and performed the break in procedure that came with lsd, essentially to drive in a figure 8 a bunch.  Did this, binding chattering, and shaking the car the whole way. I drove it back home seemed somewhat normal once I was in straight line and past 10 mph or so, and I know it will “bind” on corners and cause some tires squeal when turning especially from a stop, but when I begin to move it still causes what feels like the trans clutch to slip and jerk badly as well as shaking the entire car, and sounds terrible, that I didn’t expect. I used the fluid they supplied with LSD kit and did the breaking, planning to change fluid as they suggest after breaking, but wondering will it get smoother or less aggressive with use? maybe a 1.5 is just too aggressive for normal road driving?   I have a LSD that I put in my 71 cuda when I restored it, with amazing smooth , quite yet effective results. Different style LSD but that ones a joy to drive. maybe expecting too much from this R200?
