also say i bought a car with no paint, how much time/cash would it take to do a matt black/cheap sh*t paint job on it??? apparently all the panels are good to go just need to get busy with the spray

supercheap auto $40 for 10 export matte black paint + 2 rolls of masking tape shall do the job...

all the talk of buying and selling houses etc....our first house we got because my missus' mum passed (rip)....pokey little house on a 1/4 acre block in o'sullivan beach....had a shed and a massive back yard.in hindsight it wouldve been nice to keep the place and just extend the house etc etc...but we were still kids basically and wanted a new house. We had no idea about the market and what to do to get more money for the house, ended up selling the house for $54,950 back 11.5 years ago. bought our next house up in woodcroft for $105k, nice sized house but small yards and no access to the back yard from the front....so we didnt stay there really long at all...we ended up buying a house around 500 meters away. This one has the 2nd biggest block on the street, with heaps of room for the kids and the dog to go apeshit, and enough room for me to have a shed..eventually....

Dan how little are you willing to spend how crap a job do you care that its is

hmmz 400 to 1k i was thinking, whatever stops the metal from rusting. going to check out and old zed going cheap with no paint. was thinking of doing a deathrace/madmax look with it :D

im getting regular abuse and sick of arriving to work in business outfits that have been rained on from a leaky dato :P

nah we don't want someone of Dan's calibre driving the finer automobile do we :D

Anyone else on facebook play that fking 'bloodlines' vampire game? Shit is bloody addictive, join my clan if you're on there - I need more ppl :P

afternoon gents :D

All week ive been busy fitting a new bar to the 180-r32

brought the bumper from viva, prtty decent fit!! apart for a few pin prick marks here and there it came up damn good!

Although, i had to mod the reobar, fixed a few dodgy parts etcetc..

also Londsdale paints got the paint wrong, they have me a Toyota colour which uses the same paint code, BUT I traded over the paint for the 'right' colour, and turned out complete wrong! and the Toyota colour looked more correct! Talk about an OMEN

Anyways photos!

    • 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.
    • Also wanted to say, my new spark plugs are blackened looks like it's very rich. I have splitfire coilpacks but stock coilpack loom and ignitor. I tried directly grounding the ignitor ground to body as well.
