I Want To Buy A Wagon For Work Need Oppinions On Model?


Recommended Posts

Well im looking to buying a wagon for work i want to spend under 10k

preferably around the 5k mark

what are the nissan stagea like?

or the subaru liberty's

or should i just go a commy or falcon?

i want something half decent with not too many problems

I doubt u will pick up a stagea for 5k but you might find a reasonable one for under 10k so it would have to be a series 1 and I would look for one with the tow bar already done ,they would have to be the most fun option compared to the others, but at the end of the day if it's work car and it will cop a hard time the commy or falcon will be easier/cheaper for parts.

Yeah true

i found one for about $6500

but im more worried that its been thrashed and has some internal damage

my other thoughts are that i could one day transplant the rb25 into my r32 and get more power out of my beast

lol im goning to waste money

i should just get a commy or falcon ay?

2001 Magna wagon, 3.5L.

Friend just traded one in with 170,000kms for $2k

Bland car and FWD, but prob a better car than a Falcon/Commodore as its Japanese... unless you need to tow big weight.

Biggest downfall is the front seats. They give me a sore back quickly.

Bulletproof

Cheap

Space

I'll sell you my AU Fairlane, it's got 195,000 on it, 5L V8, dual fuel, leather.

Issues:

Drinks oil

ABS/TCS Sensor unit needs changing

Need to change the radiator/water bottle

Passenger side power window switch doesn't go up

$5k

Worth a shot? lol

there is a BA falcon wagon around the corner from my work for 6k in moorabbin. why would you buy a stagea just to go to work in transporting tools i gather also? just going to get wrecked. if you want a 25 in your 32 they are getting down to like under 2k with box and loom. just have to no where to look.

    • Input shaft bearing. They all do it. There is always rollover noise in Nissan boxes - particularly the big box. Don't worry about it unless it gets really growly.
    • For once a good news  It needed to be adjusted by that one nut and it is ok  At least something was easy But thank you very much for help. But a small issue is now(gearbox) that when the car is stationary you can hear "clinking" from gearbox so some of the bearing is 100% not that happy... It goes away once you push clutch so it is 100% gearbox. Just if you know...what that bearing could be? It sounding like "spun bearing" but it is louder.
    • Yeah, that's fine**. But the numbers you came up with are just wrong. Try it for yourself. Put in any voltage from the possible range and see what result you get. You get nonsense. ** When I say "fine", I mean, it's still shit. The very simple linear formula (slope & intercept) is shit for a sensor with a non-linear response. This is the curve, from your data above. Look at the CURVE! It's only really linear between about 30 and 90 °C. And if you used only that range to define a curve, it would be great. But you would go more and more wrong as you went to higher temps. And that is why the slope & intercept found when you use 50 and 150 as the end points is so bad halfway between those points. The real curve is a long way below the linear curve which just zips straight between the end points, like this one. You could probably use the same slope and a lower intercept, to move that straight line down, and spread the error out. But you would 5-10°C off in a lot of places. You'd need to say what temperature range you really wanted to be most right - say, 100 to 130, and plop the line closest to teh real curve in that region, which would make it quite wrong down at the lower temperatures. Let me just say that HPTuners are not being realistic in only allowing for a simple linear curve. 
    • I feel I should re-iterate. The above picture is the only option available in the software and the blurb from HP Tuners I quoted earlier is the only way to add data to it and that's the description they offer as to how to figure it out. The only fields available is the blank box after (Input/ ) and the box right before = Output. Those are the only numbers that can be entered.
    • No, your formula is arse backwards. Mine is totally different to yours, and is the one I said was bang on at 50 and 150. I'll put your data into Excel (actually it already is, chart it and fit a linear fit to it, aiming to make it evenly wrong across the whole span. But not now. Other things to do first.
