2 dailys atm.

first is a 96 magna wagaon on gas. im sure most u guys seen it. basically dead stock, never gets a wash, can fit anything in it. people kick it, crash it, chicks vommit in it. its a daily so its cool. $35 a full tank and only need to fill up once every 10 days. yeah :P

other is a laser my bro uses, but i will use it if i cant be stuffed with the magna. basically what isnt wrong with it. gear box is screwed, blows smoke, cracked windscreen, lights missing and falling out, locks broken, dents everywhere. but for $20 a week in fuel and only cost $600, it does the job. basically when cops defect ill just hand them the keys and say well done, u finally defecting defectable cars, its urs now. and will write SAPOL on the rego forms lol.

only been using a daily this year to get my car finished. saved huge amounts of money by driving a shit box around. but getting sick of it. u spend all the money doing up ur car and u never use it.

used to use public transport last year when i got defected. what a waste of time i will never get back. seriously its better for me to own 2 cars and drive one to work than get public transport. the time i waste waiting around, i could have doubled the money i save not using a car by getting to work on time.

Just curious what's everyone using as their daily driver?

This way we might be able to spot SAUers on the way to work.

Mine used to be this. I know it's a commy, but it's not bad.

This was before i got to it with new fuel pumps, cleaned up heaps of wiring, thermo fan, new heater hoses etc. which im sure alot more will be done.

Goes suprisingly well and is really good on fuel.

what a ripper!!! I've never come across a turbo 4k before, very cool dude.

i'm jealous! lol

i seized the 4k in my old rolla.

my own fault... bush bashing on my mates farm up in golden grove and I cracked the sump. And kept bush bashing for a good 45 mins after... :)

Thanks mate

Plus its very practical aswell, chuck all my tools, parts etc in the back.

Keeps the Km's off the 33 and can have fun in another car in the mean time.

Ryan's daily is his '99 Stag.. even though there's a crappy '96 lancer sittin out the back that it supposed to be the daily... lol

My daily is a black '07 Aurion ZR6... it's a breeze to drive and can keep up with a 33 gtst and the stag quite easily.. hehehe. I just need it to drive out to uni a couple times a week. petrol costs me nothing...it's dad's car :)

    • Thanks guys,  Yeah I should at least have them dynoed, at least then I know what I've got as a starting point.  The springs on these are hard as rocks. I vaguely remember Russman saying he was going to sell the shocks to me with the rocks fitted, as he was keeping the softer springs for his new setup.  I didn't click at the time but of course that was to let me know the shock/spring wouldn't be matched.  I also remember pricing up new springs around 2014-15, but, house, money etc. it never happened. So that was another reason to have them rebuilt. I have rebuilt the forks on many motorcycles so I think I could handle the seals on these easily enough, but getting the valving right would be a rabbit hole I cbf exploring.  Duncan, interesting to hear RP was tuning these back then. I might give them a call.  In the mean time I have been busy fitting sway bars. The Whiteline rear sway bar I purchased 15 years ago finally got fitted, along with the Whiteline front bar that showed up last week. Just waiting on new links for the front sway bar to finish that off.  And my spare set of advan AVS VS5's should be back from the powder coaters in a Pearl White finish sometime this week, with a set of Hankook RS4's lined up for fitting.  And then I just have all the suspension bushes to do. A comprehensive kit is on the way... Lots to do before the Ararat hill climb. Cheers guys 🍻   
    • Nice car! I’m glad folks in the US have gotten past the FnF and are buying real cool cars like the 260RS I was with a bunch of mates in Portland about a year ago and spotted a green Stagea (just a regular 2.5T AWD) parked about 2 blocks away and they were like “a what?” So I made a bet with them for a round of beers and said “ok one of you run down there and tell me if the steering wheel is on the correct side” 5 mins later the American comes trudging back up the hill and goes “he’s right guys. Ok what beer do you want?”
    • Should replace OR drop the tank, give it's good clean. Might be worth replacing that entire fuel level/pump/cradle thing with this: https://frenchysperformancegarage.com/products/fpg-s13-180sx-r32gtst-single-pump-hanger-kit-billet-hat-6-v3-fpg-089?gQT=2  
    • Thank you so much for the help
    • Yes it is ATF. I quote @Duncan "it takes a good synthentic auto trans fluid like Castrol Transmax Z" It's not a diff. It's a transfer case. Totally different thing. Yes, fluid will come out the sender hole. No you do not really need to drain it. Just pull the old, quickly poke the new, clean up and top up. But realistically, you should probably take the opportunity to change it anyway.
