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 :)

    • Have a vb in honour of the car comming back
    • It was a great, but typical track day, and some VB was ingested at the night time debrief 🤪
    • And so, to round this out, I couldn't be happier to confirm @MBS206 has decided to buy the car. He drove down from sunny QLD with a trailer last week and it is off to its new home today. I'll let Matt confirm on next steps but I understand broadly that the plan is to leave it pretty much as is, and just get some quality wheel time with a nicely balanced car that is pretty much track ready. There are a few a jobs still to be done first but nothing too major and I think its a very smart buy Dinner last night at the Paragon with a round of VBs (mostly) for Neil
    • Well, 50 pages and the end of a chapter for this car. We took it out for a shakedown at Wakie yesterday, and everything went well. There were a couple of niggles: - Oil cooler fitting leak - tightened, cleaned, stopped leaking - Radiator cap overflow fitting was leaking....Mark called it, the overflow fitting was threaded in and not tight....tightened, tested and held pressure - Small oil leak at the rear of the block, probably the turbo oil feed - too hot to get at it comfortably but probably just needs to be nipped up - leak at the driver's side rear brake line where it meets the hardline. Fitting wasn't loose, so Matt backed it off and back on, no further leaks - there's also a leak somewhere on the top of the fuel tank, maybe that cross over fuel line - that was has been left to fix when its on a hoist Otherwise than those niggles the car went great, turned great and stopped great so it was a very successful day out. I'm always really nervous when a car first hits the track after a long break, especially with a brand new engine as well but it was great. VID-20251011-WA0007.mp4  Big thanks to @The Bogan who dropped by and helped out, @MBS206 and my nephew Lachlan the apprentice.  Neil's wife Mel also surprised the hell out of all of us by dropping by; she's up in Tamworth these days but was travelling to Melbourne so had plausible deniability for turning up at the garage, it was great to see her but also obviously a bit sad all round.
