After grieving his losses with two separate and substantial share investments, dezz decides to mourn by way of purchasing a severely depreciating asset

Might start my sparky apprenticeship soon

  • Like 2

black is a lot of work. dont recommend unless the fastidious type.

the gloria is a piece of work. i cant even close the bonnet properly withour leaving fingerprints or imperfections.

Only if you give a shit about the sheer phaggotry of having pristine paintwork 100% of the time

it's a work ute / jetski tow rig / depreciating assett

I have a black Xtrail and DGAF

But if you DGAF then it will not look pimping as dezz desires it to be. If it's going to get dirty then just get a colour that still looks good when it's not super clean.

Like that navy blue or dark green Holden do on the VFs.

Also, not all sparkies are well off. A lot are struggling. Not the ones I f**king work with though. True definition of 1st world problems. Fighting over 20mins of travel time and milking jobs for OT even though some of them are lucky to be on the job at all.

Then find out some of them are ex-desal. Not f**king surprised.

it's a car. Cars get dirty. This is life

I've got the skyline on the front lawn at the moment, running just fine.

It's the dodgy evo I bought that is having issues and is up on stands in the garage atm. Was pulling the brembos off the front on Sunday night to swap to new rotors and pads, only to discover that the previous owner or previous-previous owner had munted the thread on the bottom caliper mounting bolt hole.

So there was nothing I could do but slowly and painfully remove the bolt, crying about doing more damage to the caliper.

WTB: Thread Doctor.

can confirm "previous-previous owner"

I didn't own it long enough to change pads lol

You strike me as someone who buys new vinyls at the record store and doesn't listen to them because by the time you get home they've already been out for too long

over the years I bought a LOT of records that I never played

Well... this is the current state of the passenger front rotor, it started making a bit of noise so a few weeks later I eventually decided to change the pads and rotors.

Who can spot the issue?

    • I know people cry at the price of the Getrag 12-14k for a conversion now, but it really is a nice mid point. Not going to get change from 10k on a gearset installed.  $30k++ for sequential.   I know you run the risk of a damaged used one and parts are hard to get but as a street car gearbox its really hard to beat. If you enjoy a more traditional manual, its the choice no question.
