Over the Xmas break we started doing some renovation work on the house and as people had told me: once you start fixing up one thnig the other bits look like crap and you just need to keep going :)

So I'm starting to think about selling the M35 to a: free up some cash (buy a crappy run around for half the price) b: save some money on petrol.

The other option could be to start riding the push bike to work I guess but I recently moved jobs and it's a lot further away. I guess the other thing is if I keep the Stag I'll be so tempted to just keep spending moneyey on it, I mean there's a nice grill going on IM at the moment, and that spoiler, and the........... you get the idea.

I don't want to sell it but it's feeling like the right move.... thoughts

If you can get a halfway decent price sell it and get a Toyota Corolla or something. In a few years when you have stopped spending money on the house you can use the equity in the house to get yourself a nice M35 again!

Shame you have to sell up mate, always a bad thing :P Just sold one of my project cars for a washing machine and other household items :D

You woulden't be interested in selling the aero front bar would you?

Not wedded to it going with the car, so can entertain offers. Will just knock a bit off the car price. PM with an offer if you like. Happy to start the discussion and I'll tell you I would just cost recover on it as I don't care about making a profit. Shoot me a PM if you like.

Ouch why don't you just kick me in the nuts! While I appreciate the super reliability of Toyotas offerings and like some of their cars a lot; Corollas and Camrys in stock form are for people who don't like cars. Boring, boring, super boring, A to B transport. If a cardboard box was safe enough, had wheels and was light on the juice there'd be a Camry driver in it. :P

      Fair enough, I am in no way a tire expert so I'm not familiar with all the terms and conditions. I'll definitely note down the AD09 to potentially try in the future. Rain is not too big of a concern for now as I will probably only drive in the rain when I have to. And considering I still lack experience driving the GTR I'd more than likely take it easy too. I have coilovers in the car but as I barely got to drive so far I never bothered to even check if they are adjustable haha. The suspension is almost entirely old and worn as well so I suppose when I eventually fix that in the future that would make a huge difference.

      There's not a great deal to report here .... except ...... FOR .... LSD!!!  I bought a Quaife LSD from the UK and shipped it here .... Wish I'd just bought locally cause the shipping and duty was $700! But there were so many diffs used in the E90s I just wanted to be absolutely certain I was getting the right one so I spoke with a supplier in the UK who builds race cars and they have heaps of experience with the E90s.  I pulled the diff out which was seriously awesome - I've never done anything like that before, I must have watched 1000 videos on YT about it as well as consulting the Bentley manual. It was super easy in the end. The diff was delivered to the awesome folks at Hornsby Diffs and will be back in a few weeks. I also replaced the diff bushings with some Nolathane ones.  Really looking forward to getting it back and getting back to the track or even the skidpan.

      yeah... the 13kg/mm springs weren't always in there, I had 10kg/mm but doing a few SMSP commanded heavier front springs. It's so good now going into T1 and T2, just need more seat time and real tyres.

      Yes, well. Mine are less than half that. ARBs are not set to "dumb" either.

      I would hope. But, we all know even the best companies have an issue sporadically.
