Thought I'd post in here, I'm having a think about possible moving to Tasmania down the line, probably had people ask this before, but whats it like down there? Currently in canberra. Is fuel more expensive? And I take it theres a few half decent import mechanics in hobart etc?

From what I heard as well the economy isn't going to bad either? I'm only just starting to think about it, but just after some info, I work in IT.

wow whoretowns busy in here lol :)

Good to see some interest in Tassie mate! It is a good place to live. The car scene is starting to liven up down here and the fuel is no more expensive than what you pay in ACT. If you work in IT, there is plenty around in your field but prob not as much coin compared to mainland prices. My mate works down the west coast as an IT guru at a mine site and he's on a good package. Come down for a cruise one weekend and check it out.

There is always the TasCommodores organised East Coast Cruise this weekend you could join in with.

Invited pretty much anybody along as long as they behave naturally.

When: Sunday 16th November

We will be meeting at the Campbell Town football oval (just north of town centre) at 10.30am in preparation for an 11.00am departure.

We will be heading east through Fingal and St Marys to St Helens where we will stop for lunch.

Then continue north through to Scottsdale and back to Launceston via the Sideling.

The cruise will entail approximately 280km and should take somewhere in the vicinity of 4 hours including the stop for lunch.

Was an absolute blast a couple of years ago in the Hatch. Not so much fun last year in the Adventra.

    • Looking to do a turbo conversion on my RB25DE Neo Does RB25DE Neo lower intake work with RB25DET Neo Upper intake manifold?    I found an upper only intake manifold for sale but not sure if it will fit the bottom  half stock intake manifold I have already? Thanks  Also if your selling any parts relating to RB25DET Neo pls reply below or dm.   
    • Hi, wondering if the HKS bar and water reservoir still available? Thanks 
    • What an awesome idea to fit the facelift Lamborghini Diablo headlights. They are a perfect fit!
    • An update regarding the registration with the DVLA I sent off the paperwork the day after I collected the car from the port, two weeks later it was all returned with a letter explaining they have rejected the application. This was because the cheque was £20 short for the road tax (I used a price list I found online). Nevermind it is what it is, it was sent back to them the following day with a new cheque. Fast forward another 2 weeks or so, I called them for an update to be told it had been rejected. Yesterday (16th September) I received the documents back along with another letter, this time it was because I didn't put an X in one box on the V750 (personalised number plate certificate), which declared that I had the rights to the personalised number plate. Why this wasn't mentioned in the first rejection letter, I don't know, but it could have saved this headache. The documents were sent back today, so fingers crossed third times a charm and it'll FINALLY be registered on the road just in time for the bad weather (woohoo!) To cheer myself up I lowered the front 25mm, was sick of seeing it sit like a monster truck. No idea how much clearance I'll have getting on and off the driveway, I'll worry about that when I can actually drive it
