At 17 i had a job with a great company, a bloody nice $4000 nissan exa and thousands saved in the bank......no help from family........you have no excuses :) This has been a community safety message brought to you by Andrew.........

oh and just for bragging rights.......... At 18 I had an beautiful modified R33 Skyline paid for fully in cash by me, bar $2000 my parents loaned me temporarily...... That is all....

*wanders off to admire self in mirror for hours.......

congratulations, wanna cookie?

if only there were more Andrew Doyle's, the world would be so much simpler...

What is your obsession with posting up my last name on these forums? I've told you before to stop fu**ing doing it!

Jayce: Still can't figure out if you're taking the piss on that one, so in the words of principal Skinner "I choose to take that literally".

No;not taking the piss-just stating that there should be more driven,motivated people in the world that don't want a free ride on others coat tails. It'd be soooo much easier that where the World is at right now!

when i was 16 i bought my first car, a POS kingswood V8, sounded cool but had no go. only cost me $1000. you can get cheaper cars than that around. my gf's first car cost her $25 and 2 vegemite sandwiches. it lasted all of 6 months but it was a great first car

    • Absolute f*cking nightmare. I had to take breaks constantly, and I was always pissed off when I got home. The line split in Italy on day 2 (we drove from the Netherlands), lol. Driving any narrow European town was... well, sh*t.   Appreciate it man. Here, I'll just drop a favourite from the load I took on Saturday.   I'll update here when things happen with the car, the thing is, with stock power and almost everything chassis-wise taken care of, there really are no problems. 268,000kms now and counting.  
    • Ah! I actually managed to snag a lightly used set.... that aren't so suitable for me right now. They don't work on a GTT without some cutting or creative heat moulding. I thought about reselling them myself cause I didn't want to murder them, but it looks like I'm probably going to attempt to murder them/melt them because I may as well. @GTSBoy @PranK can somebody close this thread?
    • Hey mate,  I have a set, one is slightly damaged but wont be noticable once installed.  Shoot me a message if your still after them 
    • I couldn't wait But, the black constant tension hose clamps were too thick and there wasn't enough clearance at the T/B and I couldn't get it to seat properly, so I had use a silver one there I also added some 3" silicone over the alloy bit that goes through to hole on the radiator support as it looked like it was sitting on the edge of the hole in the radiator support, I never noticed a rattle or anything, but there was a witness mark It is basicly done, and I can live with the silver hose clamp at the T/B, I will get a black clamp for the head vent though where it is attached to the bulkhead fitting  It never stops...LOL, only issue now with the shock tower brace is it slightly touches the under bonnet liner now, if I leave it it will either wear some paint off the brace where it touches, or damage the liner, so I removed the liner to see what I have to work with, with the liner removed I have about 20mm of clearance, but sadly the middle part of the underside of the bonnet is only dusted with paint and looks crap, so I cannot have that, but.... as I have a roll of Carbuilders premium under bonnet insulation in the garage laying around that is only 5.5mm thick (we were going to use it on the boys Patrol, but he crashed the front of it a few months and it was written off, hence why he now drives my old Honda Accord Euro), I'll use the OEM liner as a template and get the Carbuilders stuff fitted up to cover that dusted paint up
