Hi all,

we consist of 3 ppl, 2 guys and 1 girl who are car enthusiasts ("semi-enthusiasts" says the girl).

Anyway, one is a prelude driver, one wants a nicer car and the other is just a typical girl who drives a beetle.

Finally decided to join up and see how much we can learn, plenty of interesting topics here.

So just wanted to say hi!! :banana:

My rationale for it: What Honda owner wants a "nicer" car? Don't they already have the ultimate? And they can't drive the beetle at the same time!

i had 2 cars at 1 point. and cherie's brother has about 7, and 5 boats. so if they did have split personalities then each personality could have a car.

and besides, if you read properly, one person has a prelude, one has the beelte and the 3rd wants a nicer car. nothing is said about the prelude driver wanting a nicer car. the current car of the person who wants a nicer car isn't mentioned.

and the honda owner may just be a honda owner, and not a honda fanboi. in the same way that not every commodore owner is a bogan and not every import owner is a pretty boy, boy racer with neons, fully hektic blow off valves and naws

See my statement was going by your assumption that they are all one and the same person. Regardless, I'm just right.

Haha, i must say if we were 1 person with 3 personalities.. i'd be semi-rich (we) and 2 guys and 1 girl.

No no, we are 3 separate ppl, but very good friends who don't live together, but we hang out all the time.

so its

Wai,

Lyn

and Will

Will's the honda owner. I think he's in preludes australia?

i'm lyn btw typing. at work.. yes.. bludging...

and yes I own the beetle. I was young and impressionable and naive!! and fully influenced by girly cosmetics looks and encouragement from my father! :cool:

which beetle? the old ones that catch fire, or the new ones with 3 foot from the windscreen to the end of the dash?

the 2002 one. the uncool not-aircooled-engine-in-the-back one :cool:

BUT better than the 2008 ones where it looks like people have gone and sawed off the sides

ummmm, i don't think there is a difference between the bodies of a 2002 beetle and a 2008 beetle. i just did a bit of searching and couldn't find anything that shows any differences. may be a difference in the interior, but from what info i could find, the body is the same (unless you compare the convertable to the hardtop, LOL)

Oh its not too obvious i guess, yeah you're right with interior and stuff..

but if you had the latest beetle, sit it next to a 2002 one like mine...

you know the round bits above the wheels? mine is pretty much curved the whole way. with maybe 1cm of flat vertical bit. the new ones are like about 3-4cm.. makes it look a bit stunted but that's just my opinion :(

    • You'lll likely have to make do with R33 GTR for engine/tranny stuff, and Stagea for the body. I don't know that there's even been an actual diagram seen in the wild.
    • Haha, i kow right? Could have bought so many cars for the same amount of money (or less) but driving Unicorn gives you at least +1mln to style 😅. Like wise man said "life's to short to drink cheap wine and drive boring cars" 😉
    • Newbie here, proud owner of an Autech 260RS. I'm on the hunt for wiring diagrams specific to the 260RS, particularly S1. I've ran my eyes through R33, R34 Diagrams, there are some similarities, however continue to find incorrect wire colours and pins on connectors in the 33,34 diagrams.   I was hoping someone could point me in the right direction? I'd be happy to pay for the originals in Japanese. I can translate them, at least they would be accurate.   Any help please would be greatly appreciated, never heard an RB26DETT before let alone driven one, and I've got a spaghetti monster of goodness to sort out.   Cheers Benny  
    • Hey all  im wondering if you can help me please I have put a rb20 box in my r34 gtt as my auto packed up and a friend had a spare box I know it’s not ideal but it will get me up and running for now. we have done the conversation and everything is working great but my Speedo we got a s13 speed sensor but my Speedo reads double now and I bought a speed converter but still not having any luck.  so I thought I’ll reach out and pick your brains  any help would be appreciated please as I wanna drive my car again 
    • Drain it. I got official Matic D but you can get whatever is listed as Matic D compatible.
