  1. I will see what I can do. Cars just run me a 1200 repair bill so I may have to pull out of this I will come and inspect anyway. If the colour match's my car (it may do) I might buy this anyway, as its cheaper then getting my bar resprayed.
  2. I will give you $50 for the airconditioning vent engine. The one that sits in the dash that moves the vents around when you change it from feet to face or demister for example.
  3. Tempting, but I have just been hit with a 1.2 grand repair bill on my car. Sorry, otherwise id be intrested.
  4. Slight Correction mike: The GTX familia did not have the B6T in it... It had the BPT which is a 1.8T, just like the BPD which is also 1.8T but with stronger internals and a larger turbo with more boost. If I was to do a swap on a MX5 it would be with a BPT, as the halfcuts cost around 2 grand (The MX5 has the BP engine. I have done this conversion before, to my old astina. That thing hammered). The BPD halfcuts are around double that price, are hard to find too. That being said, the BPD is much stronger, but if you keep the BPT stock you will find it hard to break it. I flogged the tits off mine and it was fine. The BPT has 140KW at the fly and hits boost by 2k. Also, the B8/BP/BPT/BPD are EFI whereas the B6/B6T engine is a carby.
  5. thatd be me
  6. at high speeds I sometimes crunch going into 4th, but only really at 150 or more, so it doesnt really phase me as a rarley see that sort of speed. If im paitent on the gear change it go's in fine anyway. I just dont think the synchros can keep up at thoes speeds.
  7. if its a GTS4 it will have a ATTESSA AWD (GTR) gearbox in it if the person who converted it had any sense at all. If you put a GTST box in there then it would be a GTST, plain and simple. Does AWD still work?
  8. /need sleep
  9. On friday at 10 am
  10. Things will be touch and go for the feb run for me paul, im spending some money on the car in january when I get paid (monthly pay is really pisspoor) and I dont know if I can afford to run in the feb track event on the 4th. I will update you on the 15th when I get paid.
  11. ive seen that car before i think, white 31 with some form of turbo + bov, when I was heading back on a thursday night I drove past aspley maccas, he did more or less the same thing... complete wanker.
  12. Im intrested. I have one on my car atm but it has a nasty blemish in the paint. When can I come check it out?
  13. Driving a GTR requires alot of thought. Its not just point and click by a long shot. AWD means you have to have more skill with your throttle application...
  14. I believe the SR20 he was talking about was NA. would prob go like the clappers in a MX5. Also, the best car by far and wide for the pice for mountain climbs there is the Familia GTR.
  15. I only have a webber at home I will supply a esky full of meat and sasuages and onions and bread, along with some soft drink, but I dont have an actual bbq and even if I did, getting it into the line would be an intresting manuver. I might be able to borrow a mates however.
