I've changed my home loan from a std 25 year mortgage to a offset/equity loan. I bought the house 2.8years ago for $85,000 its now been valued by the bank at $110,000. I've got the loan down to $70,000 by paying a bit extra each fortnight for the lasy 2.8years, so I've taken a low offset/equity loan at $82,000. So I've got a bit of extra cash lying around incase I need it, but cos its an offset loan I should pay it off much quicker than the std 25 year loan. Its a bit confusing but I sat down and did the figures, going as I was the 25 year loan would be paid off in another 12 years with the new offset loan it'll be closer to 3-5 years depending on how frugal I am, quicker if my wife gets another job too :( Stupid education dept wont give her a job in the metro area :P So yeah, we want some french doors to open out onto our courtyard and I want to do more work on the car :)

Powerfc will set me back around $1700 delivered new with controller, then plus fitting and tuning. The autronics is $3500 drive in and out, but has boost control built in (if I want to sell the blitz sbc will make the install cheaper), traction control, serial port connection to a laptop with easy to use PC software so I can **** with maps when I know what I'm doing.

    • The issue now is the 'fuel cut' while driving, and when it happend, it does not stall. This, I did not test the fuel pressure while driving as I cannot with a fuel pressure gauge. I do have Nistune logs, yes. I have also replaced the MAF Sensor.   Also related to the FPG Fuel Hanger – I just realized that I need a Deutsch Crimp Tool to crimp some cables for the FPG Fuel Hanger. Need to purchase additional cables as the kit only included 2, which are for the float. FPG has not responded to my emails so far since purchasing. I thought about taking it to someone and having it done professionally, but I am reluctant since everyone I took it to messed up in some way.  
    • There's a good German place in Brisbane if youre up for the drive 😛
    • The German place in Cabramatta was rock solid, fresh pretzel cooked to order back then. Then it went all quiet, after all the poker machines were removed, then I believe it closed for good. I did drive past the other week and noticed outdoor lighting a big screen, but no idea what is there now.  
    • Yeah I suspect even if you hold airmass per cycle/cylinder constant if you get too far away from stock you're still going to have problems running the factory tune within the bounds of the factory load scale. Cams, different displacement/rod ratio, etc. I'm just lucky that the GTIII-SS with wastegate boost + CA compliance cats is pretty much equivalent to stock turbos. When I have actual space I can finally get it tuned and modify the fuel system for flex fuel to 100% handle any detonation concerns when cranking the boost to whatever those dinky turbos can put out.
    • I would say no, why, because my daughter, who also lives in Goulburn, hasn't recommended us going there Pity, as we miss all the German joints around in Sydney, actually, the restaurants are the only thing I really miss about Sydney, and a special mention to Ishibanboshi at Bondi Junction, their Kara-age Don is heart cloggingly deliciousness (always added a special boiled egg...or 2) 😋
