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...

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:

    • I have more than enough digging, laying blocks, moving gravel, airrating, feeding and top soiling the grass, and setting up the veggie gardens growing some seedlings,  and then removing all the unused rock to keep me busy for the next few months at least,  hopefully the rain stops soon so I can get a few hours in this arvo, but, before that Sunday is washing day, is every body happy, you bet your life we are Nice country road day drives are a day off whenever I'm muscle sore from all the landscaping at the moment, but, more epic multiple day drives will start once the majority of the big jobs outside are completed
    • I hear that would involve some nice country road drives into the hills for Mark...
    • I thought I'd come back and add something I JUST learned. A Toyota LandCruiser with a 1HZ, mates perfectly with a bottle of Nulon brake fluid. As in, it perfectly screws in. Great make shift funnel when you cut the bottom of it off. This may work for your Corolla.   Unfortunately, tipping a 10L drum is much harder than a 4 to 6L bottle, and they no longer include the easy pour tap which was just perfection to use previously.  
    • Guys since i bought r33 gts25t coupe 1994 automatic a/t(manual swap 350z gearbox)  all i got is problems, always problems. Lets start with that when i turn key into ignition(ON) fuel pump doesnt always works. Sometimes i have to turn key twice Off/on/off/on until it primes. Its new, dw300 - 340lph. My gearbox broke so i did gearbox swap, install different intake manifold, injectors and i take pipes. Car was sitting in garage for more than half a year. I did assembly all not that long ago and when i turn ignition cant hear prime. All of sudden it stopped working. Theres many videos on YouTube how to make relay mod on r33 straight from battery so i did and it doesnt work! 😰 30 - battery positive  87 - positive from fuel pump to relay 85, 86 - one of two wires from original fuel pump wires(light blue, grey) and it didn’t work. so I check on ignition and took original BLUE relays wires from trunk, next to fuses. (I believe it’s IGN+ and ECU pin 18. it didn’t work…  tried connecting (IGN+ from og relay) and (ECU 104 from 1of4 FPCM wires) to my new relay 85/86 and it didn’t work.  I unplug FPCM. Didn’t work. im thinking what’s wrong   fuel pump is working, if I leave IGN+ on 85 and 86 straight to ground it works but it’s just nonstop. Since it getting constant 12v after key in ON. light blue wire gives me 6-8v.  so how this should be connected? What causing ECU not giving — on pin? Or I did sth wrong and that’s why it doesn’t work? I need negative signal on ECU that control fuel pump. What this should be?
    • You can use your VIN to look up the factory part number somewhere like amayama, and then look to order new if necessary. https://www.amayama.com/en/genuine-catalogs/nissan Depending on price you might want to rebuild instead. @GTSBoy I had an interesting insight into US market parts when the Titan rear calipers were sticking. New calipers were dirt cheap, about 20% more than a rebuild kit....they are just considered throw away maintenance items
