A number of customers now utilise 100Mbps and 1Gbps broadband services from OntheNet.

Personal

OntheNet offers a wide range of "personal" ADSL / ADSL2+ Broadband plans and options suitable for:

• Residential / home use
  
• Microbusinesses / professionals working from a small office / home office
  
• Small businesses with no complex networking or internal servers.

Location determines which plans are available with:

• OntheNet's Personal ADSL Turbo plans and Naked DSL plans available in key Gold Coast suburbs, and
  
• Personal ADSL plans offered Queensland wide.
  
• For heavier data consumers the Xtreme plan options available across all the above locations and plans may suit best.

Business

OntheNet's business Internet solutions utilise a broad range of connectivity technologies, increasing up the product range in speed, performance and support level.

• The Business Ethernet products are superior copper based services (leveraging unused phone lines) with availability nationally, but limited by exchange availability and distance from the exchange. This product may also be promoted as SHDSL, Mid Band Ethernet or Ethernet over Copper (EoC) within our industry.
  
• Premium Ethernet, typically delivered over Fibre, is available nearly anywhere with build costs being integrated into the monthly fees in many cases.
  
• NBN Fibre based services are also offered by OntheNet in locations across Australia where available.
  
• OntheNet have ADSL2+ and Business Ethernet resources installed in key exchanges around the Gold Coast with superior rates and levels of support available in those exchanges

Looks like Subaru has announced a motorsport-only (there will be no option to register these in Australia) version of the WRX, even if it is only 10 cars at this stage.

From reports, it will be the four-door sedan stripped-out and fitted with the JDM EJ20 2l block instead of the 2.5l road version we see here in Australia. Despite the smaller block is just out performs our domestic version with 227kW and 422Nm.

The cars have been reported to start at $38,000, but will require more work completed once you have it to get it fully race prepared; including the installation of a roll cage (which can also be ordered from the factory).

More an introduction meets biography rather then straight pictures so here is a little background first if you will.

We recently purchased a 2013 WRX STI Spec R. I'm the second owner of this vehicle which was previously registered to a middle aged lady. A second owners car dream right :D

As such it has been meticulously maintained. Not a single imperfection was found inside or outside the car. Everything that was meant to be there is there. Right down to the dealer datadot brochure and all original reading materials and logbooks and neatly kept in the original dealer folder.

Services were regularly maintained to the month and only ever serviced by a Subaru dealer.

Needless to say that I am stoked to own it.

Anyway; as the title suggests; this is going to be our family car. Both the wife and I have small hatchbacks (mine a 95 Nissan Micra 3 door, hers an 05 Suzuki Swift). Neither car great for raising a future family. So we decided it was time to get a new car.

Prior to all this thou when I was originally looking for a performance vehicle in 2008 I ended up going on peer pressure and got a MKIV Toyota Supra and went bonkers on it. Everything that could be done was done to it. 350Kw@wheels single turbo, body kit, ect. It was a monster and a money pit. 8)

After awhile I decided (the wife will say it was all me) that I needed to sell it in order to get my priorities right. The soon to be wife wanted a wedding and to move out of the rental and build. So the supra laid down the deposits for both and everything started to move nicely. Now that we are settled and are looking to start a family soon; now was the time for a new car.

Compromises;
wife's suggestions - no 2 door sports cars (I guess it makes it easier to get babies in and out), no holden or ford (I think she didn't want the bogan stigma), no car older than 2005.
my suggestions - no FWD, forced induction a must (simples :lol: )

Broad range of car selection criteria there.
The clincher being that I have always liked Subarus and that boxer engine rumble.

We went hunting and we settled on this one after painstaking searches.

The idea is to keep this one relatively stock and only modify when parts need replacing. IE - when shocks go; upgrade to coilovers. When rotors need replacing, go aftermarket. I've been down the path of heavily modified vehicles so I don't really need to do all that again. This STI is strictly family duties and weekend happy laps for that thrill seeking.

Anyway, long story but I hope that gives everyone a good idea about myself and I hope to meet up with everyone at club events.

The WRX Club of Queensland is extremely proud to announce the Glenn Ross Memorial “Most Improved” perpetual trophy in his memory

The trophy will be presented at the completion of the annual SubiNats event; to the driver who improves his or her sprint lap time every session out on the track. In the event of multiple drivers classifying, the trophy will be awarded to the driver who made the greatest improvement.

Thank you to Nev Scott for organising this year’s trophy.

I’m a 44-year-old father of 3 great kids, Ryan 20, Jade 18 & Jordyn 7. I’ve been a self-employed with my own company Essential IT Services P/L for the last 16 years. I look after many of the Gold Coast Resorts reservations systems, access control systems and networks.

I bought my first MY99 WRX brand new in 1999 then 5 years later bought a MY03 WRX wagon and now my MY03 STi. I’ve only in the last couple of years became interested in my car for more than just transport and it started with me changing the head lights for some after market ones as the stock lights had yellowed. Once I’d done that and I thought it looked good my modifying addiction kicked in hard from there.

I’m proud to say I’ve done all of the work myself after learning about it by reading forums, watching YouTube, harassing my mechanic, asking questions on the WRX & STI Owners Australia Facebook page and stalking Daniel, Rob & Tim at Car Mods Australia.
