the aussie dream is to sit around drinking beers all day watching the footy/cricket/rugby, barely standing up in time to piss yourself and having three mortgages so you can buy the big house in the rich neighbourhood so you can show off to nobody in particular and buying your family brand new cars so that they can inherit the debt when you die from coronary heart disease caused by a diet of synthetic cheese slices, beer and chips.

Accurate.
Homeloans are scarier than kids. I have a kid now, and I still maintain this
How much does credit rating matter here? I know its a massive thing is the US but should I bother getting a credit card just to build some rating?
>>14422641
it's not a bad idea. Credit "rating" doesn't really matter so much as having a decent credit history; having a card that you've never missed a payment on will help quite a bit if you come to a vehicle or home loan.
you have to treat it as if it's a debit card, though. pay off the balance in full at the end of every month.

nice meme
>>14426282
Integras and Preludes tend to be beaten a little harder than your average grocery getter and command a higher price. You'll want to look into insurance on one too as it might be a little higher.
Also auto does sort-of defeat the purpose of something like an Integra but that's a personal preference.
What do people mean when they say a manual is precise?
>>14426305
If a manual shift is badly worn out, when trying to shift into gear it will be all over place. Due to badly worn shift bushings or just bad design.
Basically imagine your sausage down a hallway instead of a nice tight pussy. Yes, a badly engineered shift mechanism will be like this. I've also encountered (WRX, 2000ish) a car that's incredibly hard to shift into gear. Requires much effort and is not that precise.

make sure the fucking cooling system is completely replaced
look if theres sludge in the radiator (if there is walk away) even if its been fixed you will have to rip the cooling system apart.

Thanks a lot for the tip anon. I'll be sure to check it out. And I'm sure the RAA inspection will pick up on anything else that could be an issue.

>Really like the look of maximas
So not only are you a fag but also a nigger?
>>14426473
FWIW those wheels are literally $50-70 a rim. 17x7. They're not bad, I'm yet to find anything I like more that isn't billions of dollars.
People rip them off Gen4s to put STi rims and those ones with like a billion spokes that i don't like, so they're all over the place.
I was considering a set of Super Advans that import monster have available but I don't think they'd look right on a gen3 lib.
Also, just because the HG has blown and been replaced, doesn't mean it won't again. Unless they used the uprated MLS gasket intended for the turbo motors, it'll probably blow again ~50-80k kms later.
Fortunately engine removal is a two hour process with two guys and some basic tools.
>>14426481
my advice on buying nissan maximas is to not, because they are trash

dink ding ding we have a winrar
heads could be warped/fucked/cracked and cooling system wasnt on point to let it happen in the first place
i personally find it rather amusing that subaru's solution to this problem when they rolled out the 3rd gens was to go back to SOHC and make slightly less power on the 2.5L NA motors.
those just leak oil from the valve covers

i always hated their engines but never knew why
Goddamn it thats fucking retarded.
erghhh
>>14426494
That's not too bad if I could get a set of 4 for about $200.
I'm pretty lost when it comes to the world of wheels. There are just so many out there I don't know what I'm looking at. Personally I just go for what I like the look off (and what's cheap enough to fit my budget)
If you're not sure how they'd look you could always try doing a quick shoop, that will at least give you an idea of how it could look.
Hopefully this car will be okay, it don't need to be super fast since I'm limited to 100ks anyway. It's reasonably comfortable and spacious too so that's a plus.
>>14426501
I know they do a really in depth inspection and report on every single thing about the car.
>>14426521
it only made one less horsepower and it was more fuel efficient and reliable, i don't really see a problem desu
subaru do dumb shit but they make up for it by being stupidly easy to work on for the most part
>>14426527
in all seriousness i'd get a 3rd gen, not a 2nd gen. the 2nds are getting a bit old and tired and if they weren't well taken care of the motor's basically history.
on the other hand, the 3rd gen 2.5L NA motor is fucking impossible to kill

I'm just sick and tired of looking for a car. There has been nothing close to me that I actually like that's in my price range. Had my insurance company paid out or I managed to sell the Astra I would have bought this mini.
http://www.gumtree.com.au/s-ad/hahndorf/cars-vans-utes/-look-just-arrived-1977-mini-clubman-alloys-with-flares-/1099854992
But because I don't have that extra money to add my budget is tiny
>>14426536
P laws in SA turn every driver into a cuck
>>14426545
i know the feeling, but that's not a reason to settle for something mediocre.
What's your budget like? Have you considered a manual EK civic?
>>14426543
Funny and all, but a screenshot of a screenshot is disgusting. Just look at those artifacts and yet its still 1mb since >PNG
>>14426534
trust jimmy recard to blow it up mate because 'hes sick of looking'
boohoo ive gone through almost 10 cars and 100's of ones i didnt just to find one that isnt shit.
that took 6+ years
considering he lives in the hills it wont take him long to overheat it and cook it and probbly blow it up
>>14426529

nah

wtf
>>14426545
get something average and soup it up nothing is awesome from the factory
besides taking your ad down isnt the way to sell it lal
>>14426543
Man speaks the truth
>>14426473
>Awww shit cunt if they fit I would put them on for sure.
Seppo here, those are commonly known as "blades" among the melanin enriched gentlemen of the southern half of this fair land, it tickles me that a gook is selling them, but since they don't have the stigma associated with them there you should pick then up
>>14426557
hows ur car going?
my vx is sitting in the shed all week because im too broke for fuel and roadworks everywhere cbf driving
>>14426527
>>14426545
>Implying you can exceed 100km/h anywhere besides NT
All that speed is for hooning mate, this isnt germany
>>14426565
there are plenty of roads where the limit is 110 in NSW, VIC, SA, QLD, WA...
>>14426550
I am just so sick and tired of looking, it's stressing me out and I need something now.
Currently don't want a manual since P plates = no fun.
My list of requirements for my next car
-Under 4k (The cheaper the better, this Scooby is 2k will try and get it down a little though)
-Auto
-Comfortable
-Wagon (that isn't Holden, Falcoon or Camery)
-AWD preferred
-Cruise Control
>>14426556
Again P pates = no fun.
>>14426565
>>14426568
110ks still isn't that fast.
Hell they've changed most of the 110 zones to 100 in SA.
>Sitting in traffic on my bike
>Rubbish truck next to me

Seems I got rused. Scared the shit out of me
>>14426568
>>14426580
Wut, Im saying that no matter what you wont legally get to use all the car anyway unless you go for a hoon like all good kids do
>>14426585
I understand anon, though I've no intention of going for a hoon or anything like that any time soon.
I've lost my license enough times thank you.
Speaking of losing a license. Found out something about a guy who lives close to me.
He got done for drunk driving and speeding with 5 children in his car. He called up to pay the fine and they have no record of if in their system, so it looks like he's going to get away with it.
>>14426580
sell you my vr statesman for 1600
>>14426600
Thanks a lot for the offer anon but it's not really what I'm after.
>inb4 you offer me KFC to sweeten the deal
What has you sold on AWD, Jimmy?
>>14426563
Front end is all in, including brake lines being run for the whole car.
Diff is in
This weekend; engine and transmission
>>14426610
Since I want to do a bit of a road trip AWD or 4x4 would help out a bit should I choose to go on an adventure.
>>14426563
Looks like we will make it to Chryslers on the Murray at this rate.
>>14426614
>4x4
Jimny, do it
>>14426617
I was stuck behind a Blue Jimny today, the bitch behind the wheel was fucked in the head, 50 in the 60 areas then 70 in the fucking school zone.
>>14426617
If this Scooby doo doesn't work out I might end up with a 4x4.
I do hope this car will be okay, I just need something of my own already.
Any chance MX5anon is lurking?
>>14426632
I can get the messages to MX5Anon.
>>14426639
I was just going to ask if he could hook me up with a good price at Repco. Saw they were having a decent sale plus 20% off this month.
If I end up getting this Subaru I've already found a few things I want to buy and Repco is my go to auto store now.
>>14426646

>>14426615
CM valiant faggot here
Getting my trans rebuilt atm, they quoted me 400-1300 for the job depending on what parts i need, does this sound like a fair price? Its a BW35 trans
>>14426648
They are better than Autobarn and Supercheep by far.
>>14426654
motormate & sprints are way better. they can actually order shit
>>14426654
Sprints as best for SA
>>14426583
You're welcome. Get a real mans bike, that thing is rubbish.
>>14426649
I just paid $1500 for a rebuilt 904 with;
Stage 2 B&M shift kit
Kevlar clutches
Converter built out to max that it will allow
Few other nice goodies in their to. The auto was fine before i gave it to them, no major components to fix.
Sounds reasonable depending on the job they have to do
>>14426659
There is a Sprints pretty close by but at the moment Repco is still number 1 in my book.
If I happen to pass by Sprints tomorrow I'll check it out.
I think my fucking fridge just died. Can't believe it. What the fuck.
>>14426699
Fuarck mate. What are you gonna do?
>>14426717
>What are you gonna do?
Fucked if I know. Put all the good shit that would go off in the freezer for the moment, hopefully it'll hold until the morning so I can take it all to work. Then I guess I'm gonna need to spend $1500 on a new one, not sure if there are any domestic fridgies in the area.
>>14426699
Sorry to hear that anon. Hope that you can fix it ot replace it soon. Looks like you'll be eating at KFC until you do.
does anyone have any experience with carb'ed turbos?
>been ignoring girl on facebook for a day
>combination of spaghetti and anxiety
>Finally messaged back
>literally had to close my eyes and mash the enter key then close the tab
I'm fucking autisic when it come to this shit, I just cant do conversations unless its face-to-face.
Now to pray that she isnt pissed and dinner is still on the table. Considering we met by her giving me a gobby in the toilets while drunk I should get some pussy
>>14426747
Not on a bike, but on a car, yes.
>>14426611
lookin mint
>>14426748
>Considering we met by her giving me a gobby in the toilets
Top kek anon this is how I met my first girlfriend.
>>14426747
One day I will. One of these bad boys on a CBR250RR is my dream. They already have peaky power so this will make it even worse/better depending on how you look at it
>>14426747
Yes. Owned an XJ650S.
Run while you can.
>>14426749
same principles i imagine.
any tips. things to keep in mind?
try to do it on the cheap, cheap turbo cheap bike etc etc
>>14426761
oh i have the bike already btw
>>14426761
Yeah, don't do it, it's a cunt. Some carbies just hate it, I have no fucking idea on how bike-carbies operate vs cars. It can be done, blow-through setup is the best, but highly recommend just injecting it.
>>14426755
>hit power
>die
It will have a powerband like a 2 stroke. Though the engine might not take it, they are the definition of highly strung.
A low pressure low A:R would be good though, making it spool nice and early will give some good low power
>>14426732
Only advice I can give is just keep the doors closed I guess.

has it got the NOS yet??
>>14427033
Not yet, that concept will probably stay on the shelf till this engine pops and I tear it all down.
But I will be taking it to whoopass on the 24th
>>14426999
are you that 6'6 fatty, mr trips?
>>14427060
i am most disappoint.
stretched forks?
turbo?
drag bars?
long term custom ideas, or lil cruiser??
>>14426999
I was too busy being a normie and taking a girl out to the movies after work, anon.
>I think i'm in
>>14427072
Sure am, although I'm a little less fat now
>>14427080
Cheap travel from home to work (~10km) and still able to have a bit of fun with it. This is my first china motor and I'm not expecting great things from it, so I'll ride it till it breaks then go back to the drawing board for the next run. Someone at work suggested a ZX-2R engine, but I have no idea how to fit it.
Bit of cut and shut I guess.
>>14427086
Wang dang sweet poontang
>>14427165
Just saying, thats gonna destroy the frame
>>14420866
>be on p plates
>have obsession with being first out of the gates at lights
this is fun
>>14427198
Yeah, the pre-stressed frame really doesn't lend itself to engine swaps aside from small horizontal single cylinders.
A couple of big bumps (jumps) is usually death to the steering head/under bone welds as well, especially with my weight on it.

Then it's worth buying something in for condition. If you can't afford a decent car, you can afford trash maintenance even less.

>>14426926
Kek now I want them.
Still trying to find something that would work nicely on the Subaru if I get it.
I went on Gumtree and saw a few that I didn't mind they were 16' and 17' not sure if I should go bigger on the wheels or not.
>>14426752
That sounds depressing
This is the style of wheel that's currently on the Subaru. What should I change it do /dat/ ?
>>14429245
Wog blades
>>14429372
Find me a cheap set that will fit and I'll put them on just for you anon.
>>14424684
Technically you can if you have the Customs paperwork given to all the people who bought then through that infamous import company when they had a valid Import Permit, or if you physically buy and register it in Canada since the R34 became legal there in 2014.
>>14429411
In Australia you can pick them up off your local drug dealer for a pack of gum
>>14426440
>>14426465
>>14426474
There's a 318i compact running around with an S85 in it.
>>14426580
But slow cars are some of the funnest cars to drive with manual transmissions? Can hammer it everywhere and downshift for turning off a main road.
You could get a KE70 for 1-2k. That'd be a blast to drive. Better on fuel than the Subaru too.
If you're just driving around town slowly there's no real benefit to AWD besides unnecessarily using more fuel.
>>14426747
This >>14426767 I wouldn't bother unless it's injected. Either way turbo tends to kill a bikes usefulness in the twisties.
>>14426755
They aren't that peaky. 12k to redline. They're pretty wound up anyway though, you'd probably just blow the engine.
Can anyone in here run a VIN from Aus
I'm looking to buy a new car
> tfw you can probably save more than the staff discount would get you.
