Ok guys, ive owned my car just over 2 years now, and has brought me nothing but joy :)

but anyway here the catch,

I just started uni this year, and its at bankstown.. :cool: , which leads me with lesser income,

well not overkill but lesser hours :) , and plus my insurance stood the same which doesnt really surprise me lol,

so at the moment, i dont really know if i should sell it and buy a more Economical car, or should just keep it and catch public transport most of the time.

And i do ever decide to sell it, trust me its gonna be very sad to let her go :P , and which car will i choose..

My best pick at the moment is a newer model xr6t, or a newer s15..and hopefully with low k and cheap insurance..

so yeah

what are your opinions on this guys?

:)

Public transport!..... There's nothing better than getting the chance to hang around Bankstown Square everyday. :cool:

Your black 34's a nice ride. I personally couldn't do it. Take bus/train, save petrol expenses, and you'll definately enjoy driving it on weekends.

whats the price tag on those chubbs?

Dont worry bert i dislike hondas aswell except a daily shitter! I couldnt help but suggest it ;)

Im with Chris, my pop has an ugly ancient poo brown pintara & it never skips a beat heaps of kms & it starts every time!

With rising petrol prices you'd be silly to buy an XR6T.

Embrace the public transport during weekday and drive your car during weeknights and weekends, thats what I do when I go to work Mon-Fri.

yeah fuel is pretty bad in these days :) well i only got 3 days week semsters this year which is

not too bad, mum echo can come in handie :)

    • Congrats on the career change!  I did something similar at the start of the year too, left IT / corporate after nearly 2 decades. Soooo when's the motor coming out for the spark plug change?
    • Hi guys, long time no post as per usual! It's been a busy year so far, the biggest thing being a new job.  After 28 years in the automotive industry I decided it was time for a change.  I was losing faith in the industry and where it's heading.  Now in a completely different industry (electrical) working for a company that manufacture water pump contollers.  Not as sexy as cars but it's an interesting,  challenging industry. I now don't work Saturdays which is a bonus!  It's still 50-55 hours a week but having Saturdays ack after 28 years of working them is awesome!   No news on the GT-R but i did decide to add some more JDM goodness into my life....           1990 300 ZX.  She's not perfect but for a 35 year old car she ain't bad!  Just going to tidy it up a bit and enjoy it.  It's currently auto but will start stockpiling everything for a manual swap. It WILL distract me even further from the GT-R but im hoping not for too long! It somewhat proves a 6'8" freak can fit in a 300 ZX.  Sort of...  I drove it home from the previous owners house in Melbourne via Black Spur and Merton Gap (2 awesome bits of Victorian twisty road) and it was amazing!  Handles so well!!!   I don't think it would be worthy of a full build page but I'll post up some of the upgrades here if anyone is interested?  Cheers guys!
    • End game is to: - Remove all the slop from old worn parts - Adjust setup so that the wheels actually fit and the car is drivable (currently it is not because of the extreme rubbing on the guards).   Progress over the last couple of days, removed the rear hubs! Next steps: - Buy bushings - Replace bushings/bearings on hub - Reinstall
