Hello, my name is Michael from Alberta Canada, owned my cars for a couple of years now and have always lurked on the forums but finally decided to make my own account!

 

Ive got a 1995 Nissan 300zx Non turbo, 1996 Nissan Stagea RSFourV and a 2004 Subaru Legacy B4 WR limited.

Welcome, thats a good collection of cars.
Any plans for them in the future?

Thank you, the Subaru is my current "winter beater" something to enjoy in the snowy months haha,

My Stagea right now is under the knife getting a long awaited manual conversion, doing a full refresh on the motor and rest of the car really.

Z is on the back burner, I want to do a NA-TT or some sort of engine swap in the future but for now its just my nice weather cruising car, still a blast with the top off but it is incredibly slow haha, 300,000km and a non turbo really isn't ripping anymore haha

Welcome. 

Thanks for the pics, we all love pictures around here.

Also glad you made an account.

Hopefully you will love this place as much as the test of us.

 

I also live near snow, and the locals love their Subaru's, but I definitely haven't had any luck with them.

Audi quattro gets the job done for me.

    • Thanks both. All good advice. Reminds me of drilling through stone wall for drainage pipe 😬 I'll let you know how I get on if I still have use of my hands afterwards 😅
    • Finally got shipping number for the intake and throttle body, shipped by UPS, so "should" be in my hands sometime next week, fingers fracking crossed
    • I'm so far behind in the jobs I have to do at both work and home (including car) that I have become immortal. There's simply no way that I can die now.
    • Each to their own I guess  Me, I put just as much time into cleaning inside of the cars as I do on the outside As for getting wet, it is really no different than steam cleaning the carpets at home, apart from the cars carpet dries alot faster than the house, again, I only do it in the hotter months and leave the car opened up for a few hours As I only do it yearly, it is just before I do the diff and gearbox service, so I clean the carpets, then it's up on stands, wheels off, service, clean the undercarriage,  grease the bushings and do a nut and bolt check on everything  Disclaimer: I typically had all the time in the world to kill when I was working 🤣, so spending a full day or 2 cleaning, serving and "looking at stuff" was,  easily achievable, and a fun mental therapy day As for time to kill, I retired last Wednesday, so apart from my physical training, my days are filled with lots of random jobs around the house and garden...."Idle hands are the Devils something something" I am also buying a new house sooner rather than later, I'm actually looking at a potential property tomorrow, I'm looking forward to getting a car hoist as I'm starting to get to old to crawl around under a car, I can only imagine all the undercarriage cleaning and looking at stuff when that gets set up
    • Yeah, I'm not interested in wetting the carpets, and I don't care about brown dirt/dust that lives deep in the pile or underneath. It's not like I crawl around on them in my birthday suit or eat dropped food off them (because there is never any open food in my car). The seats are alcantara (cheap Chinese imitation alcantara, to be sure!) with barely 1" of foam pad behind the surface. That's not getting wet either. Any car that I would be happy to get the interior wet, I would not care to put the effort into.
