If you want to live long and die of old age you could stay inside your house all your life, because plenty of things outside of it can kill you, but what are you keeping yourself alive for...

Earn your death!

front has aids

front's the best part...

Technically, yes.

We all roll our sleeves up though, my hard hat is usually on the floor where I'm working, glasses around my neck lol

You'd still have it worse crawling in roof spaces though, and if it hits 35 degrees we go home...paid..

i see. yeah going in roofs in hot days is the worst part. all that itchy insulation doesn't help either

Fun. Do you have it?

difference between fun and stupid. do you know it?

So, get a phone call today from mother of the girl I had a lovetap with in peak hour traffic the other day. 2001 E36 318i, I scratched her rear bar a little (it already had a few scratches) and she said on the day that she probably wouldn't bother chasing it up...I offered to pay for touch up paint etc. Went on our merry ways. Now I have this phone call from the mother saying she took the car to a panelbeater and got a quote of $640 to respray the rear bar...am waiting on confirmation from panelbeater mate, but does this shit sound excessive to you guys? I would have thought $300 tops for a rear bar, it's a bloody 10 year old pov spec beamer :/

The lady owner of the van my brother rear ended (actually the car he hit, hit the van in front) sent a claim for $22,000....

We're talkin a regular old tarago or something, that she was able to drive away from the incident with some minor rear bar damage.

Does that sound excessive to you guys?

Sounds about right birds euro = $$$$

If she had to replace the rear bar it'd be a different story and I'd agree with you, but this is just a respray, should be no more expensive to work on than Jap or Aussie car. They won't get it repaired anyway, they'll just pocket the cash. Thinking of offering them $350 to bugger off.

How much cheaper?

Break it to him by slapping sense into him and buy a Skyline - gearboxes doesn't break into pieces on stock power in Skylines.

    • Maybe they'll look to do a bunch of presales to help inject some cash fast for their financial issues...
    • Does it also misfire equally when revving?   Josh is very correct in what you should do. The coilpack harness wiring loom itself is a known problem due to its age and the number of heat cycles it has gone through. Throwing parts at a vehicle to diagnose the issue isn't a smart or good way to do it. Secondly, you may have a bad coil pack, you pop replacements in, they fix that issue, but messing with the harness breaks it, so the issue persists. So now you think "well it wasn't the coil packs" and have to continue chasing your tail, potentially swapping back in your shit coil packs and returning the good ones (yes, I've seen people do this because 'it wasn't the problem' and they want to save money). And suddenly, you've got two issues with the same symptoms...   Diagnose, don't use the spare parts shotgun.
    • Well the articals keep saying a Q50s (Skyline in Japan) with a new Manual gearbox. I like the talk about the new looks with the round tail lights. I hope they bring back the retro look like they did with the Z
