I've been bludging for 7 weeks now :P

I'm right there with you... Savings are no more though :/

Meet on tonight? Need to get paintball deposits for those that are going.

Quick advice time. I currently have a company car with a $250 a month fuel allowsnce whi ch i pay $55 + $6 insurance reduction per week. I can get a car allowance of $150 per week ( so i dont have to pay fbt) i own my car outright. Should i do it? It does mean turning the skyline into a daily but i think it is worth it. Whats everybodies thoughts? Cheerz

My bet would be on no, not worth it. Extra maintenance and depreciation would probably be the killer. Don't forget the hike to your insurance as you are now using your car for business purposes. It would need an accountant to go over it to make sure however. if the $150 a week you would get would cover ALL of your maintenance, fuel, extra insurance and depreciation it would be worth it but I doubt that would happen.

Please note that this does not constitute real financial advise. Go talk to an accountant :P

I only need to drive it to and from work. Once im at work i use any car i want. im worried bout the extra maintance as well.

I use my skyline as a daily, although I have very short trips to work so I don't mind. I just love the feeling of getting into my car after finishing work each day. To each their own though :)

this man knows where its at. my skyline is my quiet comfy A/Ced daily driver....thats what i bought it for.....>_<

My drive to work tho is at least an hour( warner to morooka) i love driving it, will my love go away when im driving it? Thats my biggest concern coz that would suck.

    • All 3 I guess. The car came with the JASI Aero 4 door Type R Full Kit unpainted so this was one thing at the top of my list to complete then I noticed there were body panels parts for this kit so i picked them up along with some black mesh to fill in the front bumper and front side air vents. car is at a paint and body shop atm completing this work. Next I will be addressing the internal bells and whistles, great summer project I can do with the kids.  full interior removal - ,boys car sound deadening - pads and spray ,boys stereo, sound, lighting - Big 3, GTT or bigger alternator ,kids head lining - dye black add star lighting mod ,daughter. That's it for the next 5-6 months. I have some motor maintenance  work i have to plan out. oil filter relocation, gaskets, mounts. beyond that, mind is starting to turn over if i can use a DET intake plenum, block off turbo ports & pipe in a air intake.      
    • roller coaster of a ride. Alarm system was removed & main harness was repaired where possible. still no fix just random successful starts. moved on to the replacing the ignition switch and relay. well all this troubleshooting & repair has been going on, the car is at a paint and body shop being pushed around. Ive been going down there on odd days after work to get it sorted.

    • PROBLEM WAS BROKEN COOLANT SENSOR!!! Replaced with a new one and its running mint.
    • I think he was only proposing to use the wire, not the sender. Simply because it runs from the right place to the right place. Personally, I wouldn't hack up the factory wiring like that. I'd just lay in the Defi loom.
