[DAYZ]

I guess it's better paying the few $$$ now rather than the big $$$$ later, and finding out exactly what your dealing with.

[Madaz]

thats pretty cheap, nice find. youll get tired of auto pretty quickly though.

True, but i have had such little experience driving a manual. I figure if this is going to be a keeper, i could always do a manual conversion later when i get a bit more confidence.

[nos man]

save the trouble now and go for manual! when i learnt manual i fried the clutch can't get worse than that

Go to Morpowa and ask them about the car. Theres a sticker on the back window, so they could shed some light on it.

youre lookin at a fair amount of dollars for an rb25 manual conversion, best to save the money and effort.

:EDIT: good spot luke, didnt even see that.

When we first spoke to the seller about organising a pre purchase inspection, i had organised it for Morpowa. He then came back and said he couldn't do it that day. He said he didn't mind coming down my way to boostworx. He said he had most of the work done there. Maybe im just being given the run around.

[nos man]

don't worry about that car then and buy mine

[scandyflick]

yeah, id be a bit sus after that.

and on a completely unrelated topic, i just found a pic of an old friend on a certain ns.com thread. :laughing-smiley-014:
