your holden breaks down? bad luck.

your luxury car breaks down they look after you really well. (talking new car <5 years.) anything older than that aint worth having furreal.

they also charge you just as well.

holden breaks down? walk into the nearest servo/repco/supercheap/bunnings and buy the spare parts.

audi's and beemer's are the falcons and commodores of europe, furreals. VW's are the toyotas (they sell a shitload, and are just simple, easy to use, mechanically resilient cars). Anyone who think's they're luxury is delusional and needs to get their head checked. It may work on your average bogan who's never needed to apply for a passport cos he reckons Albury is going too far away, but seriously, get yourself some perspective.

Same goes for any assmonkey that thinks Lexus is value for money. The Toyota Altezza was half the price and twice as feature rich as the IS200 or IS300, just because globalisation wasn't as prelevant back in the day, doesn't mean it still has to be right now. Stop swinging on history and archaic thinking's nuts, and wake up to the fact that we live in a global economy that drives a global playing field. The more you pillocks let dealers convince you that something is worth paying a premium for because it is a "luxury item" the further you propagate the myth.

Next time you meet a euro wanker, remind em that they're driving germany's falcon. Meet some middle management knobjugger that drives a Lexus 4WD? Ask him how his glorified landcruiser does offroad.

Fuck off with your "luxury" bullshit. You bunch of cockjockeys also probably reply to Nigerian princes and buy speakers out of the back of white vans.

Owning an Audi or Beemer is more an excuse for some prat stuck in middle management to ramble on about how much more affluent he is that the next guy. Wanna prove you can dabble in real luxury? Have a garage that resembles a member of arab royalty's. Hell, even an Aussie mine owner's garage will do. Real affluent people buy an Audi or a Beemer cos they can afford it and its quality is higher than what passes off as acceptable in Australia, then they never speak of the fact ever again, to them it's just another car. The guys who bleat on about it are usually the ones trying to prove to the world that they are worth something.

if all that shit was true you would have bought a hyundai excel, cos you know its no worse than a vw, and it would have been cheaper right? or why buy work's rims why not get some bob janes its same shit right? :whistling:

man they dont charge you a thing, lexus encore is the bomb. jus sayin. check it out sometime you can afford it.

I equate owning a golf to owning a corolla. Buying a Seat would be the same as an Excel. If bob jane made wheels that looked as nice and had the same features I'd be rockin it non stop. They don't.

lol alex, I actually built lexus' website back in 2007, and as part of my package my old man now rocks complimentary Encore for the next 3 (and has had for the past two) years on his GS 430. Come at me bro.

i dont need to you would know what is included then and that there aint no charge if you break down.

COME AT ME BRO!!!!!!

nah dont that shit is ghey, but you get my point.

PS. encore should be 5 years, they jibbered you

PS. encore should be 5 years, they jibbered you

probably why they gave us 5 years free. I just use it for the airport services and free gig tickets.

Although I've always wanted to test out that 100k's breakdown offer they have. Not that we've ever had to use it. I think the only time my old man had a legit reason to call em was coz he left his lights on and the battery ran flat.

reading fail haha.. my bad. bed time.

yeh they offer the service cos they know the likely hood of kents needing it is so slim.

like if u break down they come out fix your car, or bring you a replacement car, pay for you accomodation if you XX kms from home, get your clothes dry cleaned etc. still a nice touch.

oh and all you mo fockers that havent been to a bmw/lexus/merc/audi etc dealership do yourself a favour. they seem to have a strict policy of only hiring glamours, having said that i doubt rocking up in your skyline will win many brownie points

:thumbsup:

At work on break...

The GTR is getting new fuel pump later today as stock is dying.

Now I gotta find something to amuse myself between 2am to 9am and not sure if I'd feel sleepy.

Finally offloaded my 180 shell tonight, meaning I no longer have that car anymore (even though it never moved in 2.5 years lol)

So yeah, really want to get another fun car again...

Buy my 32 gtr?

Yeah maybe something along those lines. NFI at the moment though. Really need to test drive a few different cars to gauge an opinion.

But yeah, it needs to have at least cruise control, and I would like leather.

    • Hi, i’m making a rb25det coil loom for Vag short coil. Can anybody tell me which Ecu signal wire belong to coil number 1 and 2,3,4,5,6? The connecting switch in above pic is 8 wire i think white is for +12v and black for earth.
    • Was there ever a model of the Stagea m35 that didnt have a badge on the grill? I thought I saw that somewhere, some aero edition or something? I cant find it again? davemoto
    • Its a 2002 vr-x four VQ25DET, silver. Coil overs, lowered, polished alloys and sport exhaust. Bit of a project, was sitting in a shed for a while but runs and drives great.
    • I wasn’t able to replicate the sound anymore. It was a one time sound so maybe it was just coincidence but it was like small pebbles being dropped in a coke can.   should I try cleaning the MAF? It could be it’s functioning but dirty? I don’t know.
    • Update 4: Hi all. The car drives again! Haven't driven for long, only to store it in the garage again, but the test drive was successful. The coolant and oil leaks seem to be fixed for now. Temps on the engine were also very good, while moving I never even saw 80C water during the approx. 30 minute drive. Ate up all the coolant in the reservoir though so will have to fill that even more when I go to the car next time. One thing that pisses me off is that the RPM gauge is still f**ked, I even resoldered the board twice and used copper paste on the silly screws that are used as connections. Next time I take it out I'll take apart the board and fit new components, I'll see if I can get a replacement IC for it.  I have an appointment set for 22nd of September for the engine tune to 370hp. Alignment also still needs to be done. My hope is that I can get all the legal stuff over with by the end of this season. Anyone of you have advice regarding intercoolers? Currently there is an APEXI core fitted, one of those weird hybrid ones, 600x270x76. I don't think it's bad but it's not new and now I still have the chance to change it now to legally include it in the paperwork. Only issue is that the only options that would arrive in time are a HKS Type R intercooler or generic Ebay spec intercoolers comparable to a JustJap one. Ideally I'd order a Plazmaman but it takes over a month to receive which would mean making the car legal has to wait until next season. Would love to hear some input on this. Same story for my injectors, the previous owner was a nunce and put ID 1050x on the engine. They work but are obviously not ideal at "normal" power levels. But I don't see a reason to change them unless the tuner says it's necessary. I read online before buying a different exhaust that the top secret style rear diffusers won't fit due to the size of the rear resonators. My buddy and I made it work by slightly "adjusting the shape" of the mounting bracket and making some spacers out of 3d print for the mounting bolts. Fits like a charm. Just putting this here in case someone has this problem. Even the hefty HKS Silent Hi Power rear can fits without hitting anything.
