last batch of exiges went from 180,000 to 110,000 in less than 10 months, and often the low volume sales with optional extras means that many are unique to Australia. eg. there are only 4 black exige S' in Aus.

however, with the new in-house engine, servicing and parts will be interesting, really depends on how long the motor stays in production.

also, I remember when at a DECA one of the Elise's damaged the fibreglass panel at the front, which was like half the front of the car. $10,000 to replace new. not sure how much a patch-up would have cost.

but from someone who has seen, but never driven one, it's a great car for the mooney

one of the sau nsw guys has a non supercharged exige and he likes it.

Can someone aware me if your skylines have compliance plates?

I couldnt find one in my engine bay

Just need to prove to vicroads of the date of manufacture of my vehicle

Nissan fast shows it as May 1998. But might need a letter from Nissan for more substantial evidence

Fkn aye!

Found out I don't need a VIV certificate to register my car as there is a 15 year exemption for it

Dat benefit of owning an old car lol

15 years? That's cute. Come back to me once you've grown a beard. 20yrs and counting haha

That Lotus is amazing and considering how good value a 35 is compared to other supercar offerings, that thing will probably hold its own for 40k less. Either way, I can't afford one right now :(

owning a r32 isn't THAT bad man, chin up

Yes it is.

    • I can see between the water jacket and cyl 3 there wasn't a hard line of combustion gas. It certainly appears that the issue is coming from there. Yes, checked the tension. All at 100ft lbs where I set them 5 years ago. These blocks can crack but generally when they have been over bored. Mine is only 0.5mm oversize at 89.5mm. They break between cylinders around the 91mm mark. No sign of that with mine. My gut feeling is the head gasket lifted a while back when the studs stretched and i bandaided it by retorquing the studs. It's finally let go.
    • My Nismo 1.5 churps a bit on reverse turns when cold, but besides that feels like a stock diff.
    • Yes, but, I paid cash and I'm pretty sure the receipt was in the bin 10 minutes after I got home Note to self, keep all receipts
    • Bunnings would have just handed you your money back on that one!
    • So, version 4 intake is on its way I was looking at these a while ago but at around $200 or more it was a little pricey for something that might not work, but, I had it in my watch list, but, I got a message saying it was on special, and I had a code thingie to use, it eventually came in at $120 delivered, so BAM, BUY NOW.....LOL I'll need to have a look when it arrives but I feel it will "look" better than what I currently have, as it comes with a PCV fitting, so I will be able to get rid of the alloy pipe that goes to the throttle body with the PCV fitting  Well, that's what the voices in my head are telling me  Oh, and this happened today Yeap, it was a Trojan, and it was cheap, so I headed back to the hardware store and actually spent a little bit more on a heavy duty,  one that was actually recommended by a plumber mate, a Cyclone one with a fibreglass handle that is actually rated for clay The broken shovel will eventually be "modified" into a short handle shovel
