$26KK You got stung if you received that kind of information ..... Ascents RRP is $19,750 .... Conquest $ 23,550 ..... if you want the new Sportivo THEN its $28,990.

They hold their value and a reliable cars.

There are wanker salesreps in all kinds of dealerships ..... just tell them they are a wanker and that you got a better price somewhere else and see what they do when their meal is on the line.

On the other hand of the situation - we get jerked around something chronic too ..... i had these people who got me to pull out four different cars to test drive (third time test driving these 4 different cars) ..... total waste of my time .... they couldnt even make up their mind on what car they wanted.

I know it's $19750 & $23550 respectively..the prices i was quoted were including dealer delivery + stamp duty + rego...

you should drive back to the toyota dealership in your new honda, and ask for the dealer that treated you that way, showed him your honda and see what he has to say

Nah..i gain nothing from doing this...anyway I've spread the word i think that is more effective :Bang:

Do what i did with my last car purchase,...i shopped around for dealers (rather than the car), and made up my mind from whom i would buy my car. In my case, i settled on a dealer (Paul - Autoworx) and then bought a car off him a month later. :headspin:

Excellent choice! Me too, didn't like the others! Paul makes you feel comfortable I think, that's what's important too.

That is why we bought from a honda dealer SOR. They are very well presented, their sales staff wear tie and shirt. And they treat customers well because they know customer service brings business...

Whereas the toyota dealers i been to the sales peoplen wear polo shirts (not that theres anything wrong with that) - it just goes to show how important business is to them.

Having recently gone through the process of buying a new car, the biggest problem with BMW here in Perth, is that there is only 1 dealer you can visit.

Hey I know they aren't brand spanking new, most are, but a mate of mine owns 3MW in Ozi Park, Dave, he used to work for the other major dealer her in Perth, if you see him he'll be more than happy to help you out, just say Dave from Rycom sent you. He helped out two of my mates with beautiful looking BMWs, one of them an M3. That is if you havn't already purchased one :rofl:

You can get a car from anywhere. Its all about trust really. A car is the second biggest purchase most people will make in their lives so they wanna feel safe.

Plus its just professional, do you really wanna hand over 40k to a guy in stubbies and a wifebeater?

no one said anything abt stubbies and wifebeaters.. he said Polo's

Oh well wasnt our guys then because they dont wear polo shirts but they do wear sunglasses when talking to people which is a big no-no. But anyway ..... car industry is a fickle business - im lucky to see both sides .... im someone that if i dont like the way ive been treated i wouldnt buy the car either.

    • No, code 21 is very straightforward. It can only be the things described in that diagnostic flow. In fact it has no way of knowing that the spark plug resistance is out of spec.
    • Hi, SteveL Thank you very much for your reply, you seem to be the only person on the net who has come up with a definitive answer for which I am grateful. The "Leak" was more by way of wet bubbles when the pedal was depressed hard by a buddy while trying to gey a decent pedal when bleeding the system having fitted the rebuilt BM50 back in the car, which now makes perfect sense. A bit of a shame having just rebuilt my BM50, I did not touch the proportioning valve side of things, the BM50 was leaking from the primary piston seal and fluid was running down the the Brake booster hence the need to rebuild, I had never noticed any fluid leaking from that hole previously it only started when I refitted it to the car. The brake lines in the photo are "Kunifer" which is a Copper/Nickel alloy brake pipe, but are only the ones I use to bench bleed Master cylinders, they are perfectly legal to use on vehicles here in the UK, however the lines on the car are PVF coated steel. Thanks again for clearing this up for me, a purchase of a new BMC appears to be on the cards, I have been looking at various options in case my BM50 was not repairable and have looked at the HFM BM57 which I understand is manufactured in Australia.  
    • Well the install is officially done. Filled with fluid and bled it today, but didn't get a chance to take it on a test drive. I'll throw some final pics of the lines and whatnot but you can definitely install a DMAX rack in an R33 with pretty minor mods. I think the only other thing I had to do that isn't documented here is grind a bit of the larger banjo fitting to get it to clear since the banjos are grouped much tighter on the DMAX rack. Also the dust boots from a R33 do not fit either fyi, so if you end up doing this install for whatever reason you'll need to grab those too. One caveat with buying the S15 dust boots however is that the clamps are too small to fit on the R33 inner tie rod since they're much thicker so keep the old clamps around. The boots also twist a bit when adjusting toe but it's not a big deal. No issues or leaks so far, steering feels good and it looks like there's a bit more lock now than I had before. Getting an alignment on Saturday so I'll see how it feels then but seems like it'll be good to go
