Queenstown was nice, lots to do but I enjoyed heaps of other stuff on the island. Even just the drive from Queenstown to Milford sound was good.

Stayed at a resort/backpackers place between queens town and Christchurch, had a spa overlooking the glacier lake and mountains, private but also adults of all ages kicking back. Will go again some day.

33R gone

I knew that wouldn't last long; bargain

But he wasn't using it either and the guy has already paid so he's happy

I wouldn't sell mine for less than 35k so that Warren guy was definitely smoking crack at 27k! The amount of almost stock ones that sell for 25k these days is ridiculous.

About 6 months ago he'd told me he was thinking of selling cause he just wasn't using it, going to waste. I tried to convince him to do some track days cause that would reignite the spark but, married man with kid/s, his priorities are elsewhere which is fair enough. I think it went way too cheap but at least he gets a quick sale and money in account is better than in a car not getting used.

I think he could have got low to mid 30s for it fairly easily. That engine is something special.

Only got 19.5 for mine 4 years back, had it up for 23k etc with no one even calling over a few months

Car is only worth as much as someone is willing to pay.. the dude could of had it up for 35k for 6 months for all we know guess he wanted a quick sale to avoid rego costs etc (dunno)

U still ride?

    • roof rail delete used to be a thing, they were made locally for a while too
    • I can get more photos of it here soon and I plan to make a thread detailing the process. I received the car this way and it sorely needs refinishing. That is probably the most appealing photo of it. Up close it is fading, cracked, and needs to be re-glued. Depending on their condition I'm on the fence between refinishing or making a new set.  Another angle hiding the pimples and razor pumps  
    • According to this thread the RS4V with build plate RC40 comes with the R200 diff @ 4.083 ratio as well (mine has said RC40 denotation). We may need to check if the axle stubs are the same pattern as well. The auto subframes have longer axles. However I think yours being a later Series 2 as well, we should have the same bolt pattern for the diff stubs. Unless your upgraded rear also has upgraded axles. Either way, I would not be opposed to pulling the covers to check so I can inspect that  fancy rear core  Also I don't have HICAS. I don't believe that should change things but I hope the people here with heaps more experience than me can correct me if I'm wrong   Let me know if you want to attempt to make this work and I can get some pictures of mine from under the car. 
    • It's not that straightforward. For example I have had this code because my ignitor/power transistor wires were unplugged. It knows something is wrong but has no idea what it means. If you want to actually diagnose this I recommend following the service manual flowchart for code 21. Ohm out the harness, coilpacks, inspect the ECU, etc. And again, it's entirely possible for there to be no problem at all but if you're running a different coilpack it'll trigger the code because it doesn't like what it sees.
    • If it (the code) wasn't still current, it should have gone away by itself by now. No, nothing it 10/10. But it is quite likely. Everything else to do with the ignition could still be responsible (which is wires and connectors). The car is an old piece of shit now, so all the wires and connectors are also old pieces of shit.
