Well my Evo VII went to its new home today...... Question is, what do I get next???

Im kinda wanting to have a break for a while, I love my import cars, but I'm a bit over it right now. Dont really want to jump straight back into something just yet.

Anyway.... Suggestions??

That's a nice looking evo you had mate.

Anyway, what to get next? Why not go VIP style if you're into that thing. Get a bit of a break from performance, getting faster lap times and go for a good cruiser? If not that, get a house if you don't already have one.

Depends on what you like I guess.

Ash - Yeah kinda just made up my mind & did it, wanted to pay a chunk off the house too......

Alan - I thought it would of sold quicker too, bloke who bought it couldnt believe the cond it was in & how well it had been cared for.... and yes, I love that shape too!

Warren & Ronin09 - 350GT & 350Z are on the test drive list....... not sure if im all that keen to go buy something yet but it'll be a fun way to spend a Saturday morning!

Arch - I think I miss teh powa!!!! Dont miss the bills though!

Snowy - Nah I really liked it, had a lot going for it & it was white... (I love white cars ) but other things are more important in 2007 than the Evo. Like owning my home quicker! :blink:

Troy - They just look sooo tough in silver hey! Pity I cant steer as good as you can in yours!

Im a bit keen on driving an F6 Typhoon, I like the idea of a Luxo barge tweaked to 350+ rwkw......

Only GTR I would consider is a late model '34 in Grey, but im not sure I could keep from playing with it! Price sorta rules that one out right now.

Evo IX is awesome value.

350GT I like alot too.

350Z ive never driven, but my ex boss has a Black manual Track I could have a fang in no doubt.

VE Clubsport Ive driven, liked it too.

MY06 Sti ive lived with for a week a few months back, styling didnt grow on me. Drove good though. HID's FTW!!!!

What else is there? Anything ive forgotten?

Found it. Sell the stoopid house, dont need clothes either, so hock them at the Salvos to help pay for the just as stoopid car. As for eating, just rack stuff from the servo when the attendant is out having a hand feed over your new car :blink:

    • So, version 4 intake is on its way I was looking at these a while ago but at around $200 or more it was a little pricey for something that might not work, but, I had it in my watch list, but, I got a message saying it was on special, and I had a code thingie to use, it eventually came in at $120 delivered, so BAM, BUY NOW.....LOL I'll need to have a look when it arrives but I feel it will "look" better than what I currently have, as it comes with a PCV fitting, so I will be able to get rid of the alloy pipe that goes to the throttle body with the PCV fitting  Well, that's what the voices in my head are telling me  Oh, and this happened today Yeap, it was a Trojan, and it was cheap, so I headed back to the hardware store and actually spent a little bit more on a heavy duty,  one that was actually recommended by a plumber mate, a Cyclone one with a fibreglass handle that is actually rated for clay The broken shovel will eventually be "modified" into a short handle shovel
    • When you pulled it off, there is no signs of blown head gasket? Is it possible you have some other issues going on? Possible cracked blocked? Or do you think it's straight up lifting the head? Did you check what the head was torqued to before pulling it down (To see if possibly they're stretching, or starting to break threads out etc)?
    • Seems like a decent result for a modded JZX110. They are bulky in comparison to the 100 and 90 models (which I'd prefer myself) but they are getting very few and far between here in JP these days. Thanks for the detailed review and the import process into the UK. I also have a car which I'm hoping to export from Japan at some stage so it's good to know if someone from the UK was interested in it. By the way the corrosion underneath is par for the course for cars which were located in/near the mountains or along the Japan sea coastline. They get huge amounts of snow every winter and the sodium chloride is used on the roads. Many cars have some kind of rubber like treatment underneath but they tend to limit it to the wheel arches underbody and fuel tank. Suspension arms and sub-frames will have similar corrosion to your JZX110 which is a common sight. See it all the time and car dealers here generally don't even mention it unless asked.
    • If the sound goes away when you clutch in, the 1.5/2 way diffs are just shit, and you are a normal person. The diff is likely "fine" but driving at anything under 30kmh is a violent horrible experience. It would be exaggerated with solid diff bushings and subframe bushings if you have those.
