Sick of your old and boring R34 GTR? Getting tired of driving a car that has 300+RWKW? Finding it draining to get into your 10 second car and taking it to the servo, only to see some old lady frothing at the mouth over the colour of your paint job??? WELL LOOK NO FURTHER!

Up for sale is my manual KH Ford Laser TX3 (non turbo but it's red so it does go faster than the rest).

It's just clocked over 255,000 KM on it, but the damn thing drives like a dream. Had it for about two years now and has never skipped a beat. Always serviced and never driven hard, only taken to work and back (Tullamarine airport and I live in Tullamarine), has made an awesome daily for me, and EASILY gets me 450-500KM per tank, and that's me driving locally as I rarely get to go anywhere other than work

The beast is mechanically A1: Engine is perfect, gearbox shifts without crunching or anything like that, clutch is perfect, brakes are more than fine.. Don't know what else to say.

It's got some set of 15" wheels on it with great tread on the tires, once again I don't drive far. Occasionally I've taken it to the other side of the city when I stay up at my brothers house, so it is fine for longer distance trips. The engine doesn't make noises, it starts first time every time.

The bad points are as follows: Paint has major fades on the rear spoiler and (I think) the bonnet? The car could do with a good cut and polish, there isn't too much shine on it at the moment. There is also a scratch along the right rear quarter panel where my mrs reversed her shitbox into mine, other than that the body is relatively good.

The clown before me decided to cut holes in the door trim to fit tweeters... Enough said.

The car will be sold as is - so no RWC or Rego (Don't think it will need much for roadworthy)

It's also got wiring from the battery to the boot, so just hook up and amp and you can doof doof all you like.

Don't know what these things go for so I'll say $1,500 ONO

When on normal roads we strive to maintain good relations with the authorities as well as the public in general. When attending one of Skylines Australia NSW events please try to: • Be aware of surrounding environment and act accordingly. • Drive courteously on the state’s roads as a true enthusiast should. • Understand how important it is to maintain the good name of SAU NSW and thus, treat others accordingly. • Any misbehavior will not be tolerated and you will be asked to leave.
    • It's funny, as Ive seen plenty of people use them in cheap builds on YT. And they actually go okay, even though a lot of other maxspeedingrods stuff is terrible. Those turbos seem reliable enough, the only part being, a good quality turbo that is "identical" to it, will out perform it day in and day out. In both a lower boost threshold, and the ability to flow more air at the same boost pressure. As a cheap cheap replacement, not a terrible choice. For cheap and shouldn't blow in a day, not terrible (like other eBay/Temu turbos) for low cost and still decent performance, that's where the question comes in to play from the results I've seen. I'd actually find it hilarious to buy one, and strap it to a paddock basher or some other cheap as POS originally NA car, and send it to the moon!
    • The maxpeedingrods turbo is cheap and bolts on to stock parts. I think you just need a bigger silicone coupler for the intake. Its a cheap china turbo, but it's been running on mine for almost 3 years at 16-19 psi.
    • What do they look like right after you've tried to start it with everything connected? Also post photos of what they actually look like.
    • Also wanted to say, my new spark plugs are blackened looks like it's very rich. I have splitfire coilpacks but stock coilpack loom and ignitor. I tried directly grounding the ignitor ground to body as well.
