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".

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. :(

    • Guys since i bought r33 gts25t coupe 1994 automatic a/t(manual swap 350z gearbox)  all i got is problems, always problems. Lets start with that when i turn key into ignition(ON) fuel pump doesnt always works. Sometimes i have to turn key twice Off/on/off/on until it primes. Its new, dw300 - 340lph. My gearbox broke so i did gearbox swap, install different intake manifold, injectors and i take pipes. Car was sitting in garage for more than half a year. I did assembly all not that long ago and when i turn ignition cant hear prime. All of sudden it stopped working. Theres many videos on YouTube how to make relay mod on r33 straight from battery so i did and it doesnt work! 😰 30 - battery positive  87 - positive from fuel pump to relay 85, 86 - one of two wires from original fuel pump wires(light blue, grey) and it didn’t work. so I check on ignition and took original BLUE relays wires from trunk, next to fuses. (I believe it’s IGN+ and ECU pin 18. it didn’t work…  tried connecting (IGN+ from og relay) and (ECU 104 from 1of4 FPCM wires) to my new relay 85/86 and it didn’t work.  I unplug FPCM. Didn’t work. im thinking what’s wrong   fuel pump is working, if I leave IGN+ on 85 and 86 straight to ground it works but it’s just nonstop. Since it getting constant 12v after key in ON. light blue wire gives me 6-8v.  so how this should be connected? What causing ECU not giving — on pin? Or I did sth wrong and that’s why it doesn’t work? I need negative signal on ECU that control fuel pump. What this should be?
    • You can use your VIN to look up the factory part number somewhere like amayama, and then look to order new if necessary. https://www.amayama.com/en/genuine-catalogs/nissan Depending on price you might want to rebuild instead. @GTSBoy I had an interesting insight into US market parts when the Titan rear calipers were sticking. New calipers were dirt cheap, about 20% more than a rebuild kit....they are just considered throw away maintenance items
    • Funny, but really not funny. Thank god (most) f the world has moved on since then
    • Lots of votes for driving onto a plank first; that is the quickest way I've found, 25mm is enough for my case but that will vary by car It also depends where you are going for. On the 32 I can get to the rear diff with my floor jack if I do that end first, and get it up on stands. Then I lift the front from either front tow hook as high as needed, also onto stands. Sometimes I need a small lift on the other tow hook to get it level enough If I do the front first I can't get to the rear diff because of the angle of the car Other options are getting to the front mount of the rear subframe from in front of the wheel (if only lifting one side, or just do both which is a bit of a pain compared to one lift from the diff), or also the gearbox cross member mount on the driver's side if you are  just trying to lift the driver's side. I This is the jack I use; it says 75mm clearance but of course that is only on the lower section so if you have to reach too far in like the diff you still get stuck. https://www.snapon-bluepoint.com.sg/category/Floor-Jacks/product/Floor-Jack,-2-Ton-Low-Profile
    • On the bright side, the weather will turn much nicer for working outside shortly....sounds like you might need to start on a neighbour's garden next
