Hey guys,

I entered this $2 charity raffle, and the prize is $80k in 1 or 2 cars (it said caravans and boats too, but screw them). The 80k has to be inclusive of on roads and stamp duty.

What would you guys get?

If I kept the cars, I'd probably think of getting:

* 350Z track

* WRX STi (but insurance would prob be too insane)

* Lexus IS200 maybe

* still thinking.

or.. plan b

* buy any car which holds value really well and sell it the next day and take the cash (maybe 70-75k)

I have 1/600,000 chance of winning - wish me luck!

.. what cars would you guys get?

Lol, I enter this all the time! havent won yet, but Ill keep trying!

whatever you dont take as car you get in gold, so you can melt it down and turn it into a big turbo and manifold to fit it :)

Those "raffles" are so dodgy...

The prize is what 80k.. but if you check how many tickets they sell, they probably nett $500,000, give $250,000 away to charity, $80,000 to you and keep the remaining $170,000 in "administration fees"...

Just like in that 60 minutes thing about the Red Cross Bali thing with the RC keeping 1+million for "administration fees".

get 4 32gtrs .. then u can race all your friends .. makes for best weekend parties  :(

Even beta get 8 civic hatch backs for 10k n play dodgem/bumper cars wit em, how fun would that be?

or u can jus get a 350Z!!!!!! which i would prefer =)

Buy a Merc, sell it the next day. If you're going to keep the car, don't worry about the 350Z or WRX (i personally don't think they're worth the hype). An E36 M3 is beaut, or a second hand 911 Porsche, or a second hand RS4 Audi wagon (can burn most Jap imports), or 1/500 of a new Enzo, or a field of 120Y Datsuns. :(

    • Why are you so adamant on going M12? Why not follow Brad (GTSBoy) suggestion. You're talking moving from a 1/8" size, to a 1/2" effectively. 4 times bigger. Why skip the commonly available sizes in between? The bigger you go, the more likely you are to strip the threads out at a later date, as guaranteed, someone will put a huge spanner on the M12 and really tighten it up, and you're only in thin wall, so not a lot of threads to engage!
    • Hi. Yeah thanks. Car is already at tuners and it staying there to resolve "many" issues they do not like. So it is in a good hands. Getting a good tune on that Nistune ECU too so the car would be good. Just needs a little tune up and love.
    • Probably gonna remove manifold and turbo. I’m not sure if I can get M12 x 1.5 air tight. Could use high temp Loctite 246 or something similar, but I don’t know. Maybe it’s just best to remove everything again and weld an 1/8NPT on there instead.
    • Yeah, saw the ratios, not impressed. Would like the punch I have in the first gears now. With those ratios it won't be the same.  Also want the h pattern gearing, or at least a quiet gear set that don't need to come apart for service each year. Looks like the only "reasonable" way Is a 8hp70 transmission, but where is the fun in that🤷‍♂️
