    My New Ride

    def is man - new car smell rawks! Atleast i know with honda i can do up to 270000+ klms and the engine will still be strong (as we found out with the accord we had) hehe yeah, they are awesome. They had an awesome deal on it - so i got the lot put on the car..other dealerships asked for 19k drive away + enhancement + 5th dimension = $27k. Picked up this one for just under 21k

    My New Ride

    So this is what happened. Spent the last couple of months, looking for a suzuki swift. Was eyeing demos and used cars. Saw what seemed to be a decent priced Swift S at Frankston Toyota (for about $13410 with ORC and had only had 30,000 on the clock) - so off I went in the skyline to look at it. Got there, test drove it, seemed ok - but noticed that the airbag light was on, and also noticed heaps of scratches and paint chips etc. Apparently the car was owned by an elderly couple. And as for the airbag light issue, it was due to the cleaners spraying the sensors with water while cleaning the car. Bit of a BS to me. But i thought, heck, might as well play with these fools and see what they say. So I offer 12500 with ORC. The lady says "its too low, but I will check with the manager". 5 mins later, they come back and the manager goes "too low mate" and goes off on a tangent about some house pricing crap. So I still say "12500 is my final offer" - and the guy turns to his collegue and tells her "you know what, this is already too cheap - lets bump up the price". Upon which i told them "well thanks for your time" and bolted off. Probably was in an accident and it def was a trade in. So anyway, went home, picked up my dad, went to honda, and a couple of hours later (and $500 later) we walked out of Heidlberg Honda with the contract for a new Jazz. Didnt want to go used car anymore - specially due to the distances I drive every week. One week later: Picked up the car on Thursday night - full tank of petrol and everything, went to rye - and 6.0ltrs per 100 (average)!! (300+klms and not even close to finishing half tank) Specs: Engine Size - 1339CC Fuel System - MULTI POINT F/INJ Fuel Consumption - City: 5.8L Highway: 4.8L Tank Capacity - 42L Power - 61KW Torque - 119Nm Transmission - 5M Drive - FWD Kerb Weight - 1010kg So now Skyline is my weekend fun car - Jazz is daily/work and my dads friday/weekend car. The power difference is just unbelieveable - find myself laughing at the rather lathargic acceleration on the jazz - but atleast I know it will be hard to speed in it. Some pics for those that are interested: With the Mazda 2 that I bought for my parents: The Skyline finally gets its place back in the garage : Interior shots of the Jazz (i love the white dials!): The massive 1.3 litre 4 cylinder engine: 14 inch alloys: (I know I told some of you that I sold the skyline, but I was only kidding around - sif I think about selling the R33!)
  6. people will just swap to smaller cars - just took my honda jazz to rye with the missus - 300 kays and its still not down to the half tank mark....probably got around 28 ltrs left out of the 42ltrs that honda had filled up. skyline would have had qtr tank left by now.....
  7. happy birthday pat!

  23. I got three on my dash (water temp, oil temp, oil pressure) - though 2 of them are not working now. I figure its best to have them there, specially when on the track, so that I dont have to look down at the center console to check the readings - and it did help when I was at sandown - till the gauges decided they give up on me. Got the boost on the A-pillar - reckon I dont need anymore gauges aside from those ones (although I was told that I should look into getting an exhaust temp gauge)
