My main complaint with the Evo was that in some ways its too easy to drive. Very clinical, razor sharp but a little soulless. A very fast car and I miss it heaps but I like something that can bite back a bit.

someone edited their post lol

i didnt? :unsure:

you shouldve traded me then. wouldve had a powerful stagea in your hands now!

As would I... depending on cargo space.

How would your Ridgeback go in a "small" wagon?

I know my two dogs would probably get quite car sick due to lack of space if I was in a smaller wagon/soft roader

Back on topic... not that there is one in here.

I would drop my Stagea, and get one of these in a heartbeat if they were available in Aust.

Evo Wagon

if our car came in sedan or coupe form, id be getting that

Not great in a Lancer, I think they are quite small cargo wise, but they still have that boxy shape, which allows dogs to stand up. Thats not really possible in a Holden sportwagon/mazda 6 wagon.

Two Dogs would be a no no I think, unless they were smaller dogs.

But heck- Evo wagon- that'd be almost more of a sleeper car that what we have!:banana:

Alex, I've seen (and photographed) an Evo wagon here in Sydney a few weeks ago, link: http://www.autocult.net and follow the link to the JDMST meet.

I think I rememeber reading a little while ago that they (evo wagons) could only be brought in as personal imports

Wow Nick, very interesting! I was under the impression nobody did the complience work on them. If there is just one floating around, maybe its a persoanl import...

Anyway... one car is in the country, thats a better probability than nil cars!:thumbsup:

oh...

http://forum.jdmstyl...ts-Introduction

well, a bit lol... be am importer of JDM cars, and drive something none of your clients can get! I guess you stay unique that way!

I like to think I'm not a completely naive retard, but can someone tell me how the fk something made in Australia is SUBSTANTIALLY cheaper in the US?

I'm looking at brake discs, and I've decided I'd prefer the DBA 4000 slotteds, but they're pretty epically expensive compared to the DBA street series and the RDA ones. And by epically expensive I mean almost twice the price.

Checking on ebay, as I usually do, I found I could get the DBA 4000 rotors for a 350Z touring from the US for almost half the price of Australia.

Unlike the street series and RDA, the 4000s are made in Australia. By an Australian company. So how on earth can they be cheaper form the states? :wacko:

    • Yea - I mean I've seen my fuel pump which is decades old and uh, while I'm not saying this with real knowledge... but I sure get the ick at using anything in the fuel system that produced the state of that pump. Many years ago I went through multiple pumps (and strainers) before I dropped the tank to clean it out with extreme violence. I'm talking the car would do maybe 50km before coming to a halt, which resulted in me cleaning out the filter with some brake cleaner and going on my way. None of my stuff ever looked like what came out of your fuel tank. I don't think I'd be happy with it unless every single component was replaced (or at least checked/cleaned/confirmed to be clean here).
    • I'm not going to recommend an EBC pad. I don't like them. Just about anything else would suit me better. I've been using Intima pads for a while now.
    • Agreed, and in particular the earth strap that should go from the subframe to the chassis but it often broken or left off. There is a section in the R32 workshop manual you can follow for troubleshooting if you don't see anything suspicious, and depending where you are (there is no location on your user profile) you should be able to get your hands on a second hand replacement unit still if needed
    • Yeah they mention as a R34 for 2.5 Turbo...but then again thos "small" were also for R34 by that different site. But i look into it and that 310mm EBC is for R34 GTT. And by those you linked the specs are the same 🙂    EDIT: I found these on one site here: DBA 4000 series T3 DBA42304S They are 310mm...and it says are for R34GTT...are there good? EDIT2: ok they have pads too.  What "color" should i get for street use? I dont want/need some noisy ones...(and if they are not that dusty that is good too)
    • Yeah, shame. Maybe  driver's carpet is available 🙏. I am waiting for both amayama and nangun to confirm.
