  1. Anyone who buys a cvt-8 should factor in the cost of a manual conversion ontop of the purchase price (which would make it a nice car!)
  2. Theres one in the caryard across from The Avoca...
  3. It only shows the highest gear you are allowing your gearbox to reach. The actual gear is not related to the display
  4. The early 35s only show the highest possible gear selected, not the gear it automatically selects if you go too slow.
  5. Ps.. there are mechanics out there with consult tools that will give you an explanation. I know a guy in adelaide who has a consult tool that will read all the diagnostics but still couldnt help me with a transmission fault code. Then i found a mobile auto electrician that had a consult tool which gave me a detailed explanation of all faults. Then i visited a transmission specialist that had even better knowledge. Unfortunately you will have to visit various workshops until one of them has a tool that works with your car. And it will prob cost $60 per visit if theyre mobile mechanics
  6. Tiptronic mode ... even if it says 3rd gear on the dash it doesnt mean its in 3rd gear. It is designed to change back to second and first if youre not moving fast enough for the gear to be used. Its not a true manual selection unfortunately.
  7. Vinyl wrap. Some bits like these are easy. The stereo surround is hard
  8. Sorry yeah forgot to add that, was in a rush to get back to work. The blanking off definitely helps keep that plenum clean
  9. Blanking off my egr dropped fuel consumption from 12.5l/100km to 10.6l/100km city driving. And no more soot.
  10. Its all underground now. The car scene in adelaide was real good in the 90s because you HAD to go out to catch up with everyone. As mentioned earlier, every friday and saturday night you couldnt get near town without seeing swarms of modified cars. West terrace hungry jacks/freedom.... anzac highway hungry jacks/pizza hut.... anzac/south rd BP... kmart.... the old carpark at magic mountain and the one at the end of anzac hwy where the glenelg marina now sits... We used to get blocked into that carpark by cops while they proceeded to defect every car in there... and yet we all came out again the next week. Oh the camcorder videos i have from those days....
  11. Nicko_2010 did the resistor trick. He also had ford falcon springs in his sedan. Crazy russian.
