  1. 1.5 hours of sh*ts and giggles, bloody American conspiracy theorists! LOLZ.
  2. Considering it screws in to the turbo, the part must be able to come from somewhere. Have you tried calling Garrett???
  3. Can you get one from a wrecker? Should be plenty of wrecked FG's around.
  4. Fair enough. Do I really need new retainers as well though?
  5. Hi, I want to relocate the battery to the passenger side. I was intending on just cutting the battery terminals off, crimp, solder and heatshrink on some cable extensions and running them across to the passenger side and then fitting terminals to the end of the new cables. My question is.... what is the best cable type for this purpose as I know there are a number of different grades of cable depending on the distance traveled etc.
  6. The guy went bigger power after buying the car. I assumed FG springs were decent. I'll just get Nizpro's if the FG ones are average.
  7. Found a cheap set of FG valve springs that have only done 3,000k's will they fit my BA?
  8. There are pro's and cons when it comes to car allowances. I am a corporate accountant in a company which has a fleet of 33 company cars. The amount of administration involved regarding log books, FBT, servicing, accidents etc etc is painful. The on-costs (costs above the monthly lease commitment) can be astronomical. By the time you pay the monthly lease cost for the car (approx $530ish for a Corolla), Fuel, Insurance, FBT for private use et al plus the time for my team to maintain the records, giving someone an allowance seems like a great idea. The issue is when the allowance greatly exceeds the running costs of the employees private vehicle, and this then effectively increases their taxable income, therefore possibly pushing them in to a higher income tax bracket. Also take into consideration the extra kilometers will do to your vehicle in terms of depreciation. If you can continually lease, use and sell vehicles and the allowance covers the cost then you will always be driving a relatively new vehicle and do quite well. My advice would be to seek professional taxation advice from a qualified accountant, let him or her do the maths and advise you correctly on the best avenue for you.
  9. Just make sure it is a black fitting, helps disperse the heat from the oil, therefore giving you extra killerwasps.
  10. Corzza, would probs be me I haven't seen many other T's in Auburn area. I use Queen St a lot.
  11. Mundine is just an A class wanker. He lost fair and square, Geale is much classier than Mundine these days. Mundine was a great boxer 10 years ago. His attitude and big mouth have made him one of the most hated people in Australia, and such a poor representative for indiginous Australians.
  12. Sounds like a rort to me, surely there is a replacement part.
  13. I got a Ford set off ebay for about $280 and they have been good, and looked like they had genuine part numbers etc. Can never be sure I suppose?
  14. Sirloin steak, mash and a schooner for lunch !
  15. Ratter, how would you be able to tell if so called "genuine" coil packs on ebay are in fact fake Ford ones?
