Jonno, looks quite decent! Haha! Yeah, wreckers ahoy... Now coilies and rims :P

Drop clutch to see if rwd lol?

cannibal, cosmetic work like bonnet and bumper are black, vs blue car and both are dented from some sort of impact, both front door trims are gone, front seats are bucket, drivers torn, tight as f**k - not daily spec and when you turn while parking, steering wheel doesnt go back straight... Tiny little oil leak that I'm not worried about.

ahh decisions decisions.. :P

Lol yea, I can picture me driving along and bits falling off it... We need the topgear cobbled pavestones lol.

Sweet as on rwd! I want an AE86 so bad, but they command so much money.... Saw a supercharged one tonight in the right panda colours, just missing Fujiwara Tofu Shop on the side =/

congratulations but its FWD..

Me and my mates used to have bomb races, I had an 82 leone, piad 900, there was a 81 honda civic he paid 800 and a gemini they were all manual and all slow as f**k, we would line em up and see who could hit 100kmph first, it was like real racing in slow motion :laugh:

my old ute had 480 on the clock when I traded it. in its lifetime it went through, 3 sets of tyres, 2 clutches; 3 sets of front brake pads; 1 new head. Plus lots of oil and spark plugs :

i used to flog it pretty hard and carry 1 tonne plus loads,it was still running great when I sold it but was blowing a bit of smoke, may have needed new rings soon but would of cranked out another 50,000kms easy probably more and the suspension bushes and shockies were fairly shot, like driving a tugboat it rocked n rolled around alot ,there is plenty worse cars on the road though . But It felt a bit unsafe to me so i got a new one with airbags :)

This is slightly awkward,

the car is actually a 1986 E80 .. without an immobiliser .. and by WA Laws illegal if this is the case ..

Fail?

The seller said he may take the car back cos he feels bad and advertised it wrong etc

We shall see the outcome ..

Yeah I'll keep my eye out for a rego'd ke70 I do like those cars ..

R31's are nice too but unless its a real good deal their a bit big and since I'm paying for fuel and everything (on a crappy $100 bucks a week salary) ... i'd like something a bit more economical

Will probably keep looking for a good old Corolla or Pulsar or even a Ford Laser

    • If you mean the alarm immobiliser; theyre internal to the alarm itself which makes that difficult; I couldnt even see where he put it; its not in the same place as last time; but with all black wiring it might be very challenging to trace  I had someone turn the key for me as I know it only primes for a couple of seconds As my post above; I am getting no voltage to the pump at all; but I am testing continuity of the power line (SB) from the pump plug to the relay fine. As well as the negative from the pump plug to a 12V constant.    Yeah; he blammed the no start on a bad battery; said I needed to get a new battery and it'll start. Turns out the battery drained because the tail lights had been on for half the day during the install (the rubber cushion on the brake switch gave out while he was testing it as I have a picture of the car from that morning with the tail lights off..i've replaced that). The battery was turning over the engine just fine for a long time; but got low since lights were draining it so it was too low to test a start after he finished. I bought a new one on his advice...$250 wasted. My original battery charged up just fine and is healthy.    It was running perfectly fine when I messed up the old alarm (programmed out the remotes). He couldnt start it after removing the old alarm; my assumption is that when he unhooked it; he didnt bridge the circuit back when trying to start it. Its always been perfectly fine. The ECU swap and pump were 2 years ago. It's never missed a beat in that time. 
    • This is a big issue for me without the diff. I just have zero drive from the passenger side when drivers side has no traction. Bec's parents place has a crazy steep driveway with odd camber and I have never been able to get up. My bro-in-law's 130i with an (unknown brand) LSD gets up fine as does their dad's Hiace. My car stays at the bottom. We have other odd camber roads around here as we're elevated a bit and if it's raining I can get totally stuck around some hairpins. 
    • Yeah, I am super excited for this.
    • Was the car running before he touched the car?
