my gtr is driven every day of the year if i dont take it to work my partner takes it to tafe we do aprox 600 k a week in it and driven normally it gives us about 450 k's for 62 litres of fuel (its cheaper to run around in the the commonwhore i used to own and is cheaper to run than our lite-ace 1.3 litre 8 seater wagon).

i cant see the point of having a great car and hiding it away from everyone how can you appreciate something if its hidden away and not driven.

Daily. Have a corolla but there is no point in selling it so it sits in the garage. (too much for RWC)

Bought the cefiro a year ago with about with 168,000 and just hit 200,000 last friday :)

Used to drive mine as a daily driver. As I worked evenings and weekeneds.

Now with the 9-5 M-F job in the CBD I cannot and drive the car on the weekends. Or evenings when I got out to dinner etc...

Has its bad a good points, less fuel but Im always itching to drive the car now.

everyday to and from work wish I had a company car though

i drive my 33 gtst everyday to and from both work places, and anywhere i go on weekends.

however, i did drive my NA 33 on the long trips more when i owned both.

lucky for me, both the places I work at are only 5km away from my house :nyaanyaa: so i've driven only 20,000kms since i bought it in sept '04

Weekend Warrior with instances during the week...

Again working in the CBD makes driving daily a little bit impractical - especially sitting in peak hour traffic watching your fuel gauge go down :D

Besides, what's better than going home each day in a Mercedes or a Volvo with a very friendly bunch of people squashed in like sardines smelling only a little bit better?

    • It's funny, as Ive seen plenty of people use them in cheap builds on YT. And they actually go okay, even though a lot of other maxspeedingrods stuff is terrible. Those turbos seem reliable enough, the only part being, a good quality turbo that is "identical" to it, will out perform it day in and day out. In both a lower boost threshold, and the ability to flow more air at the same boost pressure. As a cheap cheap replacement, not a terrible choice. For cheap and shouldn't blow in a day, not terrible (like other eBay/Temu turbos) for low cost and still decent performance, that's where the question comes in to play from the results I've seen. I'd actually find it hilarious to buy one, and strap it to a paddock basher or some other cheap as POS originally NA car, and send it to the moon!
    • The maxpeedingrods turbo is cheap and bolts on to stock parts. I think you just need a bigger silicone coupler for the intake. Its a cheap china turbo, but it's been running on mine for almost 3 years at 16-19 psi.
    • What do they look like right after you've tried to start it with everything connected? Also post photos of what they actually look like.
