Give 'gersfan' a PM, he has an absolute stocker and minter (when he'll learn to wash a car properly and not use a t-shirt to dry it), R34 GTT. Pretty sure he'd be glad to show you it. (To compare)

As for advice, I'd leave that one too. The steering wheel really puts me off.

This looks the go except for the crappy driver's seat + has a nice mod list clicky (Also bias being black :D)

RAC check's are good if you are going to purchase a GETZ. Visit a performance workshop who deal with the cars often and get them to check it over and complete some tests to find out what sort of condition the motor is and other aspects of the car, they have years of experience with Japanese cars.

Try Lumley Special Vehicles as well. They were about $400 cheaper than Just Cars and Shannons for my GTR, not sure how they will be for younger drivers though. Had some damage done in a carpark a while back and it was fixed within two weeks, no fuss. :D

Ah, I should also mention that the reason my insurance is that high, is because I own a GTR. No one apart from JustCar and Shannons will touch em'. The price you pay for owning what you want :)

what about the steering wheel? The price of that one is a bit above my price range, also the mileage is very high. The black does look good tho.

Its kinda hard to do that when the owner is away and i'm more or less dealing with the wife.

I just filled in the quote online waiting for them to get back to me. Thanks for that, i've never heard of that company before tho.

    • I can see between the water jacket and cyl 3 there wasn't a hard line of combustion gas. It certainly appears that the issue is coming from there. Yes, checked the tension. All at 100ft lbs where I set them 5 years ago. These blocks can crack but generally when they have been over bored. Mine is only 0.5mm oversize at 89.5mm. They break between cylinders around the 91mm mark. No sign of that with mine. My gut feeling is the head gasket lifted a while back when the studs stretched and i bandaided it by retorquing the studs. It's finally let go.
    • My Nismo 1.5 churps a bit on reverse turns when cold, but besides that feels like a stock diff.
    • Yes, but, I paid cash and I'm pretty sure the receipt was in the bin 10 minutes after I got home Note to self, keep all receipts
    • Bunnings would have just handed you your money back on that one!
    • So, version 4 intake is on its way I was looking at these a while ago but at around $200 or more it was a little pricey for something that might not work, but, I had it in my watch list, but, I got a message saying it was on special, and I had a code thingie to use, it eventually came in at $120 delivered, so BAM, BUY NOW.....LOL I'll need to have a look when it arrives but I feel it will "look" better than what I currently have, as it comes with a PCV fitting, so I will be able to get rid of the alloy pipe that goes to the throttle body with the PCV fitting  Well, that's what the voices in my head are telling me  Oh, and this happened today Yeap, it was a Trojan, and it was cheap, so I headed back to the hardware store and actually spent a little bit more on a heavy duty,  one that was actually recommended by a plumber mate, a Cyclone one with a fibreglass handle that is actually rated for clay The broken shovel will eventually be "modified" into a short handle shovel
