Thats good, but for the rest of us that didnt win lottery, loan is pretty good solution.

I'm with Community CPS btw.

well ive never had a win in the xlotto mate ive worked bloody hard over the yrs to get what i have today no hand outs here.keep slogging away you will get there . i reckon ive had a few more yrs to get there tho . :-)

i bet half the people in here that say they paid cash are only saying it for scene points, and are probably in as much debt as everyone else.

thus the reason i said "half" of the people who said it..

that means the other half DID pay cash.. :)

ah good news must try and catch up with alan so i can feel what its like

sorry to hear about your neck

the good news is it doesent slip but it's pretty heavy on the pedal and it's a bit on offish more than we expected but he is happy with it .

i can safetly say its the last one im doing without a hoist tho i pulled a muscle in my neck thats been giving me hell while lifting the box back in .

but the bottle of scotch he gave me is helping with the pain lol

hey, my first 34 i paid cash for..now thats gone wont be seeing it for a while and now deciding to get a loan for a new car am going to apply for a loan at savings and loans i am lookign at importing is it better to ask for a personal loan? or a car loan?

ive got a mate that just bought a 33 with cash.

he saved and worked his ass off, and avoided spending money as much as he could, that meant riding his bike from 1 side of town to the other instead of spending money on petrol, now thats commitment.

Personally, I'd never get a loan for a car. I would also avoid getting a credit card unless it was absolutely necessary.

Is it true that you need a credit card to have a good credit rating? Or can you also base your rating on savings?

paying bills gets you a credit rating

mind you years ago when i was unemployed my bank sent me an application for a 8k yeah we will end that story there :rofl:

have saved enough for a gtr32 :D

...and how is that a bad thing?  :worship:

All I have "saved up" is $3000 debt on credit card. :D Will try to completely repay it within next 2 months. Had just to much shit going on recently.

    • Oh dear. The panel beating needs to be done before the filler work. Do you have a photo of the dent before you started? Hard enough to not flex and only hit the high spots?  What do you mean it was just temporary? 
    • Can u check this way it works for power supply?
    • These coils draw 10amps that what i read online
    • I appreciate the detailed explanation, think I understand now. I spent the better part of last night reading what I could about shuffle and potential solutions. I had replaced the OEM twin turbo pipe with an alternate Y pipe that is separated further away from the turbo. The current one is from HKS and I had a previous pipe that was separated even further away, both have shuffle. I had heard that a divider can be welded in to the OEM pipe to remove turbulence, and figure that aftermarket pipes that are more separated would achieve the same thing. From what I read, most people with -10 turbos get shuffle due to their size, though it's a bit less common with -5s on a standard RB26. I think Nismoid mentioned somewhere it's because OEM recirculation piping is common in Australia with -5 cars. It seems that the recommendation tends to vary between a few options, which I've ordered in what I think is most feasible for me:  1. Retune the MAP or boost controller to try to eliminate shuffle 2. Install OEM recirculation piping 3. Something called a 'balance pipe' welded onto the exhaust manifolds. I don't know if kits for this are available, seems like pure fabrication work 4. simply go single turbo My current layout is as follows: Garrett 2860 -5s HKS Racing Suction intake MAF delete pipes HKS racing chamber intake piping hard intercooler piping,  ARC intercooler HKS SSQV BOV and pipe Haltech 2500 elite ECU and boost solenoid/controller HPI dump pipes OEM exhaust manifolds HKS VCAM step 1 and supporting head modifications Built 2.6 bottom end All OEM recirculation piping was removed, relevant areas sealed off I'll keep an eye out for any alternative solutions but can get started with this.  Only other question is, does shuffle harm the turbo (or anything else)? It seems like some people say your turbo shafts will explode because of the opposing forces after a while and others say they just live with it and adjust their pedal foot accordingly. 
    • That worked out PERFECTLY! Thank you big time to JJ. He was able to swap me his stock diff. He drove all the way to me as well. Killer! Removal & install was pretty straightforward. The diff itself is HEAVY. So that’s a 2 man job.  Man does the car drive nice now! Couldn’t have worked out any better 👌
