  1. everything is back where it came from. i made sure of that!

    that was my thoughts as well with stock engine. afm or fuel pump?? ive been told fuel pump as well... got one lined up tonight.

  2. ok so my series 2 has been throwing little tantrums over the last week...

    randomly on my way to belmont one night when it was pissing with rain my car decided to start a serious rough idle, slight surging, misfiring and wanting to stall - its an auto. the car would completely drop revvs then instantly shoot back up to over 1k... massive black plumes of smoke coming out the back. went on for about 30 mins then cleared its self up... its continued doing this even after 4 tanks of fuel because im getting maybe 250km outta the tank atm cause of its hissy fits....

    checked air leak - found a leak parts on order

    spark plugs only 2 months old.

    fuel pressure regulator - possible and requiring new one!

    coil packs - only done about 100k but still stock so could be?

    so i was told take off the cover where the coil packs were cause if they are getting too hot it could be causing these issues... so i attempted myself unaware that bulk shit needs to come off to remove such a simple little thing.... got half way through it yesterday, storm came through so i packed it up to tackle later. last night go to put car back together. achieved. feeling proud as punch.... go to start car FAIL... initially nothing at all but power. fiddled with stuff. car will crank but not fire like there is no fuel BUT i got half a tank FML....

    IF ANYONE KNOWS OR CAN HELP ITS GREATLY APPRECIATED!!!

    otherwise i might roll it out into the street and burn it lol

  7. man all i can say is im 19 turning 20 and i had a huge hassle trying to get insurance on my gtst! i insured it for a shitty 13k and it cost me 1800 a year through just car. no one else would look at me. if you get it it will cost something ridiculous hey. all i can suggest is get it in ya parents name and you as a secondary driver...

    good luck!

  8. WELL DONE BABE!!!

    considering how long ive known about the plans its about time it worked out for ya!!

    i know the feeling of waiting too... im still waiting on insurance money and i just found a nice ride in qld. i hope my money gets here by friday then im off to qld to buy a car hahaha

    now im not going to ask to drive it cause im not silly but you are so taking me for a spin mister!

    ^5

  9. Road Trains driving way too fast, tailgating and not paying attention. It was nearly bye bye lauren this morning - he had to screech on his brakes, swerve (cos i was indicating to turn) Got the heart racing :happy:

    went to get his back number plate - but it was covered by the roadtrain sign! suprise suprise.

    you ok babe??f**k i hate trucks they think they own the road jsut cause they are huge and stuff...

    i had some guy in a commodore wagon almost take my nose out this morning cause he didnt look.. thank god he didnt... i dont have insurance in my boys car hahaha :S

  10. what grinds my gears?

    people asking for industry priced godskitchen tickets when the f**king retail tickets sold out over a week ago.

    my earlybirds would be gathering a lot of dust by now.

    slow mofo, better luck next year

    same goes for any other labelled event, ie MoS, Two Tribes, Summadayze and any Pendulum event :happy:

    SOLD OUT!!! NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO

    OOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO

    hrm im glad my amte has bought mass tickets for his party :'( well i hope so or ill be devo'd i was really looking forward to that

  11. you know what really grinds my gears...

    Idiot drivers!

    people that dont look, dont indicate and pull out infront of you... they have a POS 2k car you have like atleast a 15k car and yours gets totalled... you cant go to work for a week due to trauma whiplash etc but yet they walk away...

    yes some bitch pulled out infront of my on thursday at loftus and london st mt hawthorn.

    my car is more than likely a write off. first thing she says to me

    "im sorry i didnt look, indicate or see you... are you ok?"

    NO IM NOT f**kING OK YOU JUST WROTE OFF MY f**kING CAR CAUSE YOU HAVE NO IDEA HOW TO DRIVE AND GAVE ME 3 MTRS TO STOP IN YOU f**kING WANKER.....

    how is it perth drivers can be this bad? it was a bright sunny day, no coulds, no rain, clear as and yet she didnt seea black skyline let alone hear me i had the stereo blasting... seriously are people that stupid...

    it has totally done my head in. i have no faith in the general population with their driving skills now. she should be made to resit her test... you do not pull out infront of a car without looking or indicating in a major intersection. im 19 and know this she is 24!!!!!

    far from happy jan

  12. ive just got standard shocks with king springs 50mm lowered or somethin. they were in the car car when i bought it. i havent had any issues and prev owner babied it and he never had an issue.

    i do agree if your gonna do springs wait and do whole lot but if ya aint got the cash do what ya can or wait :(

  13. when i was looking for a car i took my dad lol he did all the work but main things that we looked at were:

    - panel work: made sure everything matched up and was the same colour, orange peel etc

    - How many km's - if it was high km's were they all city or country and genuine.

    - oil leaks - wher it was leaking oil (especially around the head)

    - timing belt - had it been done if it was due

    - interior - hand brake, door panels and handles, steering wheel, seats esp where you get in and out, plastics etc

    - colour of the exhaust

    - wheel allignment and how it drove if it pulled or whatever

    - pressure test (not everyone will do that) but also looked at teh radiator when running to see if there were bubbles

    - tyres and where they are wearing

    - the mods it had and how hard it had been thrashed...

    thats about all i remember but i know there was more wed spend atleast an hour with a car looking at everything, but keeping in mind my dad is a mechanic and not alot of people would go to alot of extremes...

    infact when we bought my car we went there 3 - 4 times and spent atleast 2 hours each time before i bought it...

    in the end i went for a totally stock line cause it was teh cleanest even though it had 129,000kms on the clock

    also another thing... MOST well Majority of people want manuals. we have auto's. autos dont really appeal that much due to the drift factor.

    not sure if it helps babe but definately good luck with the sale i know how much ya want the 350!!!
