what do you need AWD for? just makes life difficult and more things to brake +weight. stick to 2WD. +1 for honda. get a CRX. put stuff in it.

 

man CRX's arent as cheap as I thought... except for this one: http://www.carsales.com.au/private/details/Honda-CRX-1992/SSE-AD-4150326/?Cr=9

" I'll throw in the "OLD SKOOL" sticker for free " lol

 

half decent one still fetches $8k. http://www.carsales.com.au/private/details/Honda-CRX-1993/SSE-AD-4099900/?Cr=8

car has been looked after well (mechanically). well sorted suspension-wise. no real power mods.

I have a soft spot for the '89 Prelude with 4WS

Hondas drive nicely

But they are overpriced for what you get and their fanbois can be the worst kind


You're probably right... I just lowballed people on Gumtree and got a clean one for a lot less than market value though so I think they're great value for money :15_yum:

Eddie meguire advice for reduce the roadtoll: "... The human body isn't designed for car crashes... Everyone try to not die before Christmas"

I'm not even paraphrasing. Think I prefer Project Zero over that shit

read that in my mind with connors voice. now laughing.

 

got a mate to sus a stag out for me Liam.

rusty doors but seems ok, cant complain for what ill be paying

Giving the Federal RSR-R a go in 245/40 all round. Cheap borderline semi with a good reputation from what I've read.

Will be interesting to compare with the AD08Rs, which are now completely shagged out. Not expecting a miracle in the wet or a quiet tyre in the dry given my past Federal experience. They are only 10 weeks old so should be nice and soft.

    • I've looked up the parts number (41011AL501). It's around $700 OEM. Usually our Infiniti G35 here in Canada have interchangeable parts with my Stagea but the parts number are not the same. I have looked around and it seems the JDM 2005 V35 Skyline (which is the same as our G35) has the same caliper but I cannot confirm. And I can't find a repair kit. The inner brake pads drags on the rotor, seems to be rusty piston. Thanks for the info by the way
    • This coupled with 6-9 speed autos with ridiculously short gearing is why these modern shitbox cars always seem so fast off the line. If it wasn't for those things, Raptors would not seem fast. The problem we have is there is a driveability gap between a more gentle take off and a wheelspinning sideways launch. The difference between ankle flex required to achieve one and ankle flex required to achieve the other is about 0.5°.
    • Yeah I think I'm also with the opposite here. It's 'hard to keep up with traffic' because in the real world I'm accelerating with 15% throttle and they are pinning it. It feels like I'm being an overt dickhead at anything above 15% throttle, so the car sounds like I'm being an overt dickhead to keep up with/get ahead of traffic when I'm really just trying to drive with traffic. There would be no issue 'keeping up with traffic' if we used the same level of throttle input/aggression to drive around. People really do just drive around with their foot nearly pinned in econoboxes.
    • To be fair it's the other way around. 300kw is boring in a modern Golf or BMW. They are so competent / well-engineered / devoid of emotion that you have to go stupid fast to feel anything. Whereas the <300kw RB still makes all the right noises and it feels good to drive. Can pull off at the lights with the turbo whooshing and the blow-off pssshing and feel like the coolest kid on the block. Just don't look to the side where you'll see the bored housewifes in their shitbox Yaris/Corolla/Camry that kept up because you didn't go fast at all
    • 300kW is so boring in a Skyline, you'll get spanked by someone's mum's Golf with Alibaba pipes, and an email tune.
