I might actually buy one for a train station hack.

It's more logical as it would unlock circa $8k equity from the golf and it would most likely be more comfortable, faster, have the same features, (i.e. none) be manual and I would honestly feel more confident that it won't die one day.

I haven't driven the golf anywhere but the train station even once for over 12 months now so a $10k car is just a waste and the gheyness is lineball

 

If only I could motivate myself enough to sell the POS. :/



I'm currently riding around in my 03 Honda Accord Euro Luxury... got it for half your Golf. Definitely something to consider ;)

This is where the cost of a Tax accountant that knows what they are doing outweighs the costs   FYI $300/h

2.4k back this tax year not too bad..  had to depreciate fair few things 

ppl in wasteland still go to deca? 

I can't do mine yet as Medibank f**ked up and I won't get my statement until 31/07/2016 at the earliest.

This is especially infuriating as:

1) They have sent Merowyn's and it's a joint f**king account.

2) They have now sent me 2 letters telling me they can't send me a letter

Self Tappers. In the dash, across the airbag flap.

Your engine going to be done by 2020?

If I'm lucky. Lawrence, Ads and Shadz were helping me give him shit on Saturday. If the car isn't done before the end of the year he's gotta buy me lunch for a month

I don't reckon any of that paint protection is worth it. Just get a detailer to do a good correction polish on it and wax it regularly.

You'll move that thing on before the paint is fked anyway.

I was of the same opinion, albeit without ever having researched the subject at all... I just assumed they'd just wash off etc but from everyone I've spoken to that has or has had it, they rate it..

Did you sus out any of his detailing photos? I looked at the blue mustang and black maloo photos and couldn't work out if he's not that good or just an average photographer..

They'll sell you their own. They applied paint protection to our 86 and I did not think it was worth it. From memory we got them to fix it up cause a few days after some tar crap landed on the bonnet and the paint protection shit went all weird.

      R34 GTR Speedo Drive , sensor type ?

      By Butters · Posted

      Working through possible solutions of converting my mechanical speedo.    Anyone know what type of speedo sensor the factory r34 gtr getrag has ? what the output is ? I assume its not a VSS and more a voltage like earlier speedo sensors ? Can an ECU read it ?

      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

      Can you mount the ATTESA pump in other locations?

      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.
