If they were next to me when the lanes merged I would have yielded and let them merge first

People are retarded man. Whenever there's a merge after lights, I always get up to speed as fast as possible so that I can merge first.
>>
>>14974465
Depends on what you want out of the car.

If you want speed you probably should have bought a WRX, simply because you'd have to do brakes and suspension on top of an engine swap in a base model Pretzel to get it all up to the same level of performance.

Inside, outside and engine bay detail. Will set you back a bit, but will be amazing when done. Especially if they do clear shell coatings. (Shell coatings also make the finish easier to upkeep.)

Other than that first major service?

After those go have fun with it. What do you want to do with it? Skids/drags/trackdays/gymkhanas. Tarmac/dirt/gravel?

If you just want to daily drive it you could look into fuel saving gear.

Turn off your car and put a voltmeter to your alarm and see if that has power with the car off, or you could be a bogan cunt and cut the wires and find out if that's it.

Well, got it last November, but hell if i know how long it's been shelfwarming, so I can warranty it no problem. It literally went from green status indicator to empty in a week.

>>14975459
Just wondering now, is it even normal for a BA MkII to have the power windows operational after 5 minutes of turning the vehicle off? At least I know it's not the lights, the central thing or bluetooth. I'll try to find a voltmeter I can borrow

Dad's electrician reckons it's most likely the alarm, maybe I can just go and get him to check. Shouldn't take too long.
>>
>>14975507
those green/white or whatever indicators never work on batteries t͏bh

sounds like you got some leaking of power from something, like tat other anon said, use a voltmeter to find what is drawing the power
>>
>>14975507
>is it even normal for a BA MkII to have the power windows operational after 5 minutes of turning the vehicle off?

Yeah it's normal for modern cars, It surprised me when I drove my mums 2012 Kia Carnival, took the keys out and pressed the button to go up and it went up. If it's an aftermarket alarm I wouldn't doubt it that they wired it to the battery directly instead of something thats triggered when something is opened.

Hmm let's take a look at these starting grids

Class A[edit]
Class A was for cars which cost less than $1,850. It was made up of Datsun 1000, Ford Cortina, Hillman GT, Morris Mini De Luxe and Toyota Corolla.

Class B[edit]
The $1,851 to $2,250 class was dominated by the Datsun 1600, but also contained Hillman Arrow, Hillman Gazelle and Morris 1100S.

Class C[edit]
The $2,251 to $3,000 class saw a mix of standard versions of the outright contenders, Ford Falcon and Holden Kingswood and Fiat 125 and Morris Cooper S.

Class D[edit]
The $3,001 to $4,500 class featured the outright contenders, Ford Falcon GT and Holden Monaro, but also contained a single Chrysler VE Valiant, Fiat 124 Sport and Studebaker Lark.

Class E[edit]
For cars over $4,500, contained Alfa Romeo 1750 GTV and a single Citroen DS21 Pallas.

Wow, Aussie muscle sure is good when it competes against the shittiest Euro and Jap econoboxes and a French luxury car. Every time they went up against American cars, even in their own racing series in their own country, they got demolished.

Check the springs arent cut, check the oil and see how clean it is, make sure there is coolant (not water) in the overflow, check the rear guards for melted rubber, make sure it wasnt someones skid rig.

Also check that the electronics in the dash actually work, only fuses you will have to replace but can probably get it a lot cheaper if there is a problem.

If it were me I'd track down bumpers/skirts/rear pods/wing (if wagon) off an RX Impreza, a nice tasteful set of wheels off a newer Sube, maybe lower it an inch or two and transplant nicer interior bits from a different model.

Maybe unequal length headers and a quiet-ish exhaust for dat rumble but nothing like the drain-pipe exhausts some WRX's get around with.

First of all, the American first generation Falcon only ever had an anemic 260 in terms of V8s anyway. The "Falcon Sprint" (which is the only notable performance US Falcon) that you replied to originally and referred to is a second generation and has nothing to do with our XK-XP Falcons. Idiot.

>I've used socket sets before, Never worked on anything that used shitty imperial sockets. 10, 12, 14, 17, 19mm is all i've ever needed to touch.
Imperial or metric. What do you think the drive size is measured by? Do you suffer from an intellectual learning disability? Or are you really just underage?

Wondering where i can buy different spoilers, specifically the tdr spoiler, it's got a stock shell at the moment but i'm not the fan of the stock spoiler.

also, where do you guys buy your body kits and shit from? i'm getting nothing on gumtree or ebay, andys auto store is pretty cheap but i've heard bad things about them, so bad i'd rather not use them for an international purchase but they are really fucking cheap.

if I were to buy it i'd make a wooden tray at home

>>
>>14977092

I would rather shove a cactus up my ass then buy that thing.

He's actually offering a reasonable price. the things probably rusting in parts hence why he chose to chuck the tray and paint everything. it's probably just a cover up and the thing has filler covering up all the rust holes.

Also, you have to consider in the fact that you won't find spares easily and if you did get it rego'd you'd be spending a lot more on fuel driving it around.

The only application i reckon this thing has is on a farm

this thing would be cool to make into a handling beast
also any rust there is pretty fukken easy to access

not bad, but they are so physically tiny and the engines are absolutely gutless its not practical. Its only worth it for an engine swap due to the scarcity of engine parts, but its probably half filled with bog and you still have to source or fabricate a tray

the way I see it, kripke made the series, completely finished it at season 5 by closing all other story lines, explaining stuff and making a pretty good finish
then he either got paid a fair bit or muscled around by hbo/nbc/(whatever american tv company) to add that last 10 fucking seconds with sam in it.

hey guys, out of curiosity. How fast are the commodores?

I think bogans flock to them because of the v6 and v8 engines but since i've never been in once i can't commet.

>>14977627
depends which commodore. VN-VS v6's feel fast, and they are kind of quick and the 304's feel very fast. Once they went over to the LS engines the v6 was dogshit in comparison. They are mostly ridiculed for the bogan car stereotype and the fact that they handle like boats. Buick 3800 is a good motor.VB-VK commodores are shit across the board, doens't matter whats in it, if its stock its shit performance wise. VL is a meme car. VE/VF are good cars but are 300kg too heavy
