I'm not a fan of the CLA in gernal, proportions look wrong. it kinda looks like a smaller AU falcon..

BUT when I saw a AMG CLA45 whole diff matter the skirts and body kit fix all the issues.

thing looks great.

Naw mang, buy a second hand Falcon GT for 50k - 1 year old, brembos, tune it for a grand got a mid 11 sec car chuck some semi slicks on and have some fun at the track if you want too.

Show me a comparable (new) car to this for 50k only other thing I looked at was the 335i but decided on a new GS instead.Then again I aint on dat dere baller spec cash like dezz. If you looking 100k why not just get a 35 GTR tune it on e85 with some mid pipes and be done with it.

Just research possible gearbox issues and what that might cost.. hell even rebuilding my gearbox costs a shitload!

straya!

"Hey Simon, what do you want for Christmas?"
"Money towards sway bars."
"I don't know what that is, but alright..."

Which sway bars should I be getting?

Are Whitelines Front and Rear Sway bars still the way to go? Will I need adjustable ones? 24mm? 27mm? What else is there to know about them? What are these end links and mount bushings that are on the Whiteline Website? Do I need them toooo?

I think I've already got slightly beefier ones than the GTST's came with, since I have the A-LSD model and a bunch of parts are tankier than usual...

Thanks in advance :touch:

(from pulsar experience with whiteline) non-adjustable are equivalent to medium settings on adjustable. The hardest settings are make the rear end pretty damn jumpy and I've spun out a few times when hitting uneven tarmac or something during corners.

with end links... the best:

(i dont know what length the R33 would want, the small ones fit the pulsar fine and kept the bar flat)

Cla is a bit of a stretch for a 4 cyl turbo. But has heaps of street presence, 265 kw fuel economy is actually in existence.. Full new warranty servicing etc financed. f**k those things go hard as well {style_image_url}/attachicon.gif ImageUploadedBySAU Community1386629514.469054.jpg{style_image_url}/attachicon.gif ImageUploadedBySAU Community1386629527.069145.jpg{style_image_url}/attachicon.gif ImageUploadedBySAU Community1386629537.984580.jpgThat's the work one lol {style_image_url}/attachicon.gif ImageUploadedBySAU Community1386629569.725000.jpg{style_image_url}/attachicon.gif ImageUploadedBySAU Community1386629585.007289.jpgBut in saying that, driving dat v8 507 around last week was such a pleasure! Really have a different appreciation after getting in one. The normal c63 (non 507) go for about $100k at auctions. And that's stretching it. Should look into that as an option. May end up walking away with something better for a lot cheaperAnd not sAying this as a biased opinion.. The depreciation of BMW is fkn shocking. The safety features on merc seriously outrank the rest. And I've tested that at sandown lol

C63 amg or normal? I'd love one if I could pick one up at auction cheap...I'd even settle for a sedan. But guessing lease wouldn't be an option?

Lease my brother with my work I get mad returns on tax out of it otherwise id be cruisin in a Kia fo real.

Cla isn't as good in real life IMO something about the back slope seems goofy / less elegant than full size cls

Still nice though

If you want something nice Dezz id say spend 50-70 you'll get a very nice low kms good nick prestige car for that and you won't wear the pain of the 50% price drop in first 2 odd years

More than open to suggestions... I'm sure there's plenty of cars in the market I'm looking at that I don't even know about

You driven one yet?

Nope

just get a fezza dezzmang bitch magnet 

Hopefully one day...

You'll get a c63 sedan under a 100k just kms might be on the high side so you gotta think about maintenance lack of warranty if something breaks etc

Suggestions are hard what's main criteria?

    • Have you done the Ignition Sync Wizard in the AEM software?
    • Find out what RPM it was idling at with the IACV unplugged. It's very weird that the rpm didn't change at all, and then it stalled. When it stalls is it nearly like a switch off, like you've turned the engine off? Or is it more stutters and sputters and coughs to death over a few seconds? Or does the RPM just slowly keep going down and down? Have you done a test of trying to start it with the AFM unplugged? Does it still die?     If you Follow Josh's advice on using Nistune to check the voltages (which is a perfect method!) if you see anything out of wack voltage wise, THEN get the multimeter out and read the voltage directly at the sensor. If the two vary, then you're now looking for a wiring issue vs a sensor issue. So be aware, what the ECU sees, may not be what the sensor is actually saying too...
    • You very likely need to get it on a dyno and tune it. My assumption is, you've got an RB25DET tune in it, which has a different manifold, different injectors, and different cams as a minimum. What O2 sensor are you running?   When you say it runs extremely rich from idle all the way to redline, is this just free revving it you see that?
    • I seem to the be only person that is using a Haltech 2500 on an NA motor, I've installed a Bosch DBW throttle body to the OEM intake manifold and am having problems maintaining AFR even with the wideband o2.  It will run extremely rich at idle and up to redline, but under load it will go extremely lean in the 20s and i'm essentially having to rev it over 4k and feather the clutch to get it up to speed.  I've read a few other threads of about the butterfly, it seems removing the vacuum to it is supposed to have it remain open, i've noticed no difference under 4k with the vacuum line to it plugged.  I'm hoping someone here has had luck using the NA manifold with Haltech, and if they happen to have a tune for it.  
    • I don't know any details, but I really wouldn't be surprised if they do it as a LHD only version, at least initially.
