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 :(

    • Hey. Very valuable information about pitwork, I will pay attention when buying any consumable parts 🙏 As for the carpets - I got a handful of information from nengun, from which it appears that indeed the carpets for the driver's side are OEM. They are not able to show me any pictures due to the long chain of different sales entities but after I place the order, as soon as the goods arrive at the nengun warehouse from which they will send the shipment to me they can send me photos and if my purchase differs from OEM I can immediately return it / cancel the purchase. I think I will give it a try 😉. Of course i'll let you know what's what as soon as i get them P.s. I know the topic is not relevant to the thread, but both nengun and amayama have these SICK 😍 trunk room lamps available. Do you know anyone who ordered them? I need to have one in my car
    • I've managed to find this: Nissan_Stagea_AutechVersion260RS (1).pdf
    • I believe @Duncan has given it a crack at Mt Buller before (in actual race conditions)
    • All my Polish car culture insight comes from watching Nightride. So I half expect this to get 1UZ swapped eventually?! Are you going to drive it in winter? I'm always curious how ATTESA would hold up in the snow. There isn't that much opportunity to try it in Australia.  
    • My steering lock unit on my Infiniti G37 has failed. The car is a local 2012 Infiniti G37 (Q60 ) I need to replace the unit My local mechanic said i need to buy a complete steering wheel assembly. Does anybody no any mechanics in Gold Coast or Brisbane who can fix this issue or where i can buy just the Steering lock control unit. Thanks
