Anything not over 125 is gutless

I couldnt be stuffed waiting to save. I saved up half of what i needed in 12 months, got impatient, then borrowed the rest. Its a 5 year term which should be paid off within 18 months. As for the interest, it equates to about $500ish (for 18 months). Considering my car is still worth more than what i paid for it, therefore I'm still on top. Like Warpspeed said earlier, its all just number crunching. I think its a little pathetic how people can judge others by how they pay for things. Everyone has their own reasons.

My 1st car was a WB Statesman. 2 weeks before my 18th bday it got stolen . I then ended up with an EA Falcon for 5 long, expensive, tiring years. Dont buy an EA is all I can say!

Nothing short of AWESOME! Congrats!

Thats awesome. I love the turbs-out-the-bonnet look.

Saw a 78ish Orange 323 with about 20 blue neons under the car last night with YDIDI... Fitting question really.

You dont have to. 125 or more is 100% correct. That list was phased out in '99-'00 i believe. Any car that was on the list is still restricted, however, in addition, all vehicles now have to be under 125kw/ton for p platers.

email has been sent. I'm keen!!

/best boxing commentators voice Ohhh did ya see that?!?!?! akeenan jabbed horus square below the belt!!!

:bahaha: :bahaha: OIMLOW on a civic. It was pretty low, you stepped on the front bar when you walked past. YLOOK4 on a VL, pronounced with the biggest muz accent. YTRY4 cant remember what car this was but it made me cringe. My fav YBSMRT on a pulsar.

It certainly would be a fair dog act if they charged you a $3k+ premium then refused to pay out.

Neddless to say, that redefines WRONG!

hehe, just like Collingwood fans "remember 1990?"

These wheels look awesome! Do they have tyres? Coz I checked the Rays Engineering web site and found them to be about $750au each. I realise shipping and taxes would drive the price up but not by $2000. Would they fit a R33?

I vote for this one :uh-huh:

Skylines were designed first and foremost as a sports car. Commos and Falcons were designed as family cars and have had performance forced upon them. The only way to compare these 2 cars is straight line performance. Stock for stock I spose there would be very little difference. However, the "rice rocket" would do it more smoothly, efficiently, quietly, and with more class.

yeah cleaned the afm... didnt do shit. im gonna do the plugs 2moz and see what happens

money is an issue, unfortunately

Steve: I think they might need a clean coz the engine coughs and splutters (only slightly tho) over 5000rpm. I'm gonna get the plugs done and see if that makes a difference first. My mechanic said that dirty injectors should be felt throughout the rev range not just up high? So he said done worry about it yet. He quoted $300 to clean all 6, labour inclusive obviously.

anyone?

Just want some feedback from those who have had their injectors cleaned. I'm planning to get it done and was wondering if it is really worth doing. I usually run an injector cleaner through it every 5000km. The car has done just over 100,000km. Will there be much of a performance gain? Or is it more for drivability/engine smoothness? Approx cost? Any feedback would be great.

Enrico, Steve, BOOSTD: I was discussing a few of these issues on the weekend with a friend. I still dont know enough to comment so keep the replies coming.

This is a great thread. Enrico & Steve: can you guys post the full details of those books? Cheers.

Good point. I would recommend you (well anyone looking at new tyres/wheels) go to Mag Wheel & Tyre on Chiffley Drv in Preston. The guy there will give you a no bullshit, straight up answer to your questions. I went in asking for S02 Bridgestones (255/45/18 @ $600 each) and he told me the Hankook 104s match them in every aspect for $330 each (265/40/18). I dont think he's gonna rip you off.

Clear tail lights are wrong! Dont mess with the skyline signature!
