My dream of purchasing a m35 has been shattered , my funds lost due to incorrect info from stock broker , now iv'e tried to go for a loan , found out i have a black mark on my credit list due to some unwise ventures years ago in my younger days , as financers dont want to fund grey imports , and the ones that do see the black mark and back off, even though i earn good money , still no go, so it has to be an aust delivery vehicle , or zip , SUBARU LIBERTY GT WAGON ????? ;) , KINDLY SEND A $2 DONATION TO HELP UNDER PRIVLAGED NON STAGEA OWNER , HELP FIGHT THIS ABOMANATION ON SOCIETY . LOL. :D

Sucks to hear that mate, finance companies are pretty blinkered when it comes to imports. Their thinking is that if most major insurers won't touch imports, there's gotta be a reason for that. How long ago was the mark against your name left? I think they expire after 7 years?

not good champ, i had a similar problem fixed it with a unsecured personal loan from westpac. they gave me the cash and then i went and found a car within my limit. then payed out the car loan with a home loan lol.... now i own the car!

u'll find a bank will be more then willing to help you if you're already a customer, and they can see all of your info infront of them.

save is an option , but with 2 teenage daughters , FARK !!!, THEY BLEED YOU DRY, went to my bank ,nab zip , as i said no worries for aust delivered car , just not a grey, so subaru here i come !!! i was originally going to buy a sub liberty gt wagon , until i saw the stagea nm35 , and thought value for money , awd , small cap engine = lower fuel consumption , theoretically , turbo , leather , etc , etc, BUUUUT , NOW have to go back to first option , still a good car the sub , but hey when compared to the stag , chalk & cheese ! any other cars that fit my criteriour you guy's can think of , eg , awd , turbo , aust delivery , jack shit from my field of view. :D

with 2 teenage daughters

Pity your not in SA. Cheffstagea and I would be more than happy to let you borrow a stag if you would introduce us..... haha!

on that topic, another good thing with having a stag, being a younger driver 18/19 I think when I do drive people places or go to chicks houses and their parents see my car i don

't get that skyline image thrown at me and no you cant drive with him that things to fast ect ect..

Yep ,trying to save is hard...to buymine we left a lot of staff apart(BTW my wife is really good saving when she focus on something)but yep...mortgage ,family,and all the probs around,hope you can find a way to get yourself in a stag ...good luck...

get the mrs a golf or mini!!!

why not rwd? :yes:

Hmmm, Golf would be cool as would a mini... Service costs and vehicle price are downers though (No. She does not like the old mini's :banana: )

Also needs to have a bit of grunt (she is bored with the 165kw from the Magna :) )

Gotta have 4 doors and be smallish car (she loved her Mirage)

Why not rwd?

Since Alan put AWD ahead of all other preferences I figure it is pretty high on his list...

I sort of have the same problem, except I allready have my Stagea. Since my turbo died I tried going to the bank to extend my loan amount but now that I am casual not fulltime they wouldn't do it for me. Savings a bitch to since, I was unemployed for 2 months and got to get ourselves back on track with bills. Sorry to hear about your troubles. Hope you can work something out to get your car.

    • By popular demand.. it was a coil. Got my hands on 1 new OEM coil, replaced with the one that made the less noise difference when I unplugged it while the car was running and started the car up. No stutter and the engine light was gone. I guess I’ll buy the other 5 they have lol
    • No, code 21 is very straightforward. It can only be the things described in that diagnostic flow. In fact it has no way of knowing that the spark plug resistance is out of spec.
    • Hi, SteveL Thank you very much for your reply, you seem to be the only person on the net who has come up with a definitive answer for which I am grateful. The "Leak" was more by way of wet bubbles when the pedal was depressed hard by a buddy while trying to gey a decent pedal when bleeding the system having fitted the rebuilt BM50 back in the car, which now makes perfect sense. A bit of a shame having just rebuilt my BM50, I did not touch the proportioning valve side of things, the BM50 was leaking from the primary piston seal and fluid was running down the the Brake booster hence the need to rebuild, I had never noticed any fluid leaking from that hole previously it only started when I refitted it to the car. The brake lines in the photo are "Kunifer" which is a Copper/Nickel alloy brake pipe, but are only the ones I use to bench bleed Master cylinders, they are perfectly legal to use on vehicles here in the UK, however the lines on the car are PVF coated steel. Thanks again for clearing this up for me, a purchase of a new BMC appears to be on the cards, I have been looking at various options in case my BM50 was not repairable and have looked at the HFM BM57 which I understand is manufactured in Australia.  
    • Well the install is officially done. Filled with fluid and bled it today, but didn't get a chance to take it on a test drive. I'll throw some final pics of the lines and whatnot but you can definitely install a DMAX rack in an R33 with pretty minor mods. I think the only other thing I had to do that isn't documented here is grind a bit of the larger banjo fitting to get it to clear since the banjos are grouped much tighter on the DMAX rack. Also the dust boots from a R33 do not fit either fyi, so if you end up doing this install for whatever reason you'll need to grab those too. One caveat with buying the S15 dust boots however is that the clamps are too small to fit on the R33 inner tie rod since they're much thicker so keep the old clamps around. The boots also twist a bit when adjusting toe but it's not a big deal. No issues or leaks so far, steering feels good and it looks like there's a bit more lock now than I had before. Getting an alignment on Saturday so I'll see how it feels then but seems like it'll be good to go
