meh my excel am the gay

i tried putting stereo in and cause way the dash sits i now onlty have half a heater.

i hate it. the only diff with it being a LE is it cam with a dashmat standard and standard it has the spoiler and rims. feels a little (don't laugh) gutsier than the others i drove though.

but hopefully at the end of yeah ill have a GSR lancer or a rex

CAM- i wouldnt call 14.1 crappy ;) ill swap cars if u want

Psiker

hope they do put a track near the airport - i may be able to attend some of these runs then - cant be fagged going down to kwinana haha in fact one of my friends has a two storey house and u can see the airplanes land from it so i'll just sit up there with my beer and watch u guys run the mile. We've already got planes and trains around here so a bit of motorsport noise dont bother me!!

yeah im more central kinda near belmont.

Nah i dont have to worry about reducing mileage - odo's stuffed at the moment anyway. Fuel costs are the main issue - then again once i get on a freeway my car is good on fuel its just the stop start it gets hungry in. Most of all after work i really dont fell like a 40min drive either way - long way to go to find out ya car has shameful times!

haha maybe once its been played with a little more - i prefer to be pleasantly surprised that dissappointed. Nah stuff to do then i shall run it - but dont expect to see it down there anytime soon. Plus im a bit worried because the more power u put into it the more things go wrong and its alright for u guys cos u have a better idea how to fix it then i do - im a bit more helpless in that dept.

Most of these guys are helpless in that department including myself, but a Skyline can withstand a decent thrashing and survive.

I can't believe I actually read all of the whore posts since I left, and some of it was actualy interesting, go figure.

See'ya:burnout:

    • Didnt realise RB's had more then 1 head.
    • I'm normally copping my own abuse from neglecting my daily drivers. "Those suspension bushes will last a bit more", "Don't worry about the oil leak, just keep topping it up". The project cars I'm always doing things slowly on them as I'm wanting them to be done better, and neater, and nicer. Luckily I don't have to deal with 18 year old Matt's "Learning to wire" stuff in the project cars. And there's only one piece of wiring I'm displeased about in the Landcruiser, and it's about to be cut out... However, the box loads of parts that have been going through this place lately for the Landcruiser... Brake pads Brake Rotors Full handbrake overhaul Wheel Bearings Seals Swivel hubs Steering Boxes Half the suspension joints Shocks Air bags (Ones to go in the rear springs for towing) Water pump Timing kit Lower timing case Harmonic Balancer Radiator Lots of other little seals and shits Gas struts for the bonnet New power window switches And god knows what else I've forgotten... Ha ha ha I have my fingers crossed the pinion seals don't start leaking on the diffs, that the transfer case doesn't leak, and the gearbox input shaft doesn't leak, nor the rear main seal. As they're about the only seals I haven't replaced in the driveline! I'm seriously eyeing off buying new caliper rebuild kits front and rear brake calipers... I'll probably recheck all the valve clearances soon too, and hopefully, it should be all good and sweet to haul some long distance trips again!
    • Every time I pull my 3x gauges out of the console and see the crack-addict way that I did the wiring, and I just can't bring myself to tear it all apart and "make it nice", because it is currently working. In fact, the last time I was in there I probably made it worse.
    • The best part is when you own the car long enough that you look back and find your OWN ham fisted amateur shit!
    • The annoying part about neglect, is when you start to replace one thing, and find ten more broken things. Ham fisted monkey repairs you normally only find out about when trying to do something unrelated! Ha ha   Neglect you can kind of anticipate the huge costs to fix it all. Ham fistedness is normally a shock the first time your work on a new old car, as everything "looked" good before.
