Thread 28678459

were bringing it back
ausfags post about ur shitbox falcons and commodores etc.
what are you driving these days with skyrocketing used car prices?
>inb4 ford ranger

I gave up and bought a brand new Corolla

>>28678463
why? legit like 40k right?

>>28678464
yes

>>28678466
why?

>>28678467
Tired of driving old, unreliable pieces of shit, and have enough money.

>>28678468
why not spend the 40 on a really good ss/xr6t or something? seems like a waste of money for a corolla. what did you use to drive?

>>28678470
>why not spend the 40 on a really good ss/xr6t or something?
Tired of driving old, unreliable pieces of shit

>>28678471
>low km ls1 and barra are unreliable
pls explain

>>28678472
The rest of the car around it.

>>28678473
what exactly was unreliable about early 2000s commodores and falcons? other than ford ball joints

>>28678475
>bro just spend $40k on a 20 year old falcodore

>>28678476
yeah thats right
more realistically spend 25 and keep the rest spare. a good vy ss would be much better than a new corolla surely

>>28678477
I like the idea of walking out to my car, getting in, and just driving to wherever I want to go, without having to worry about anything going wrong; for the next several years.

>>28678486
based npc

>>28678459 (OP)
fuuuuck i knew my brake line flares were shit. Bled the brakes and the fittings are weeping REEEEEEE
time to buy some cupronickel lines off rockauto. any sydfags want shit from there while I'm at it? Send me part numbers and if it's in the same warehouse as my current order I'll chuck it in

Poofters of world, unite

Towards botney bay

And Australia was born

I don't go fast anymore I drive around in a slow 25yo 4x4 ute, fuck everyone behind me they held me up when I had fast cars.

>>28678486
Why the fuck would you even be on this board?

>>28678524
to upset you

>>28678459 (OP)
I hate Indians.

>>28678521
old hilux? 2 door ln91 or whatever the fuck they are seem kinda based

Mathematically speaking, two is greater than four.

2 > 4

It's over

for me, its the humble subaru liberty wagon

>>28678549
Courier, less offroad capable but more comfy and smooth

>>28678588
the only person i know that has a courier has an interlock in it

>>28678590
I have a rear lsd and front autolocker in mine. I worked for a guy who had an interlock in his AU ute

>>28678591
dont think u know what an interlock is m8

based and drink driving pilled

Went to inspect this over the weekend. 1973 series 3.

I know plenty about fixing and maintaining classic cars but I know exactly nothing about land rovers. How cooked would I be if I bought it?

>>28678595
new landys are shit but i think the old ones were decent. itd prob have asbestos gaskets like the old brit stuff did i think so be careful when ur working on it. if not it will prob piss oil everywhere. manual?

>>28678599
I'll keep that in mind. It's a manual and I think he said 2.2 petrol. Kind of assumed these would all be diesel but I don't really mind either way.

Diffs and transfer look like they need new gaskets. Hard to say with the engine, it was generally grimy but nothing concerning for its age.

It only has about 6 components though so it's not like anything could even break. I've been googling and I can see a few au stores and a bunch of uk stores with a huge range of parts, although they're not """""cheap""""".

>>28678607
pre cool but. you gonna take it offroad or just have it as a project.

>>28678612
It'd probably be a project. I've never tried off roading although I'm willing to give it a go and see if it's fun.

>>28678521
I'm selling my bike

Bought my wife a new rav4 hybrid, love getting in that thing

Very tempted to get another one for myself, or a 4x4 Ute for that macho loop, unironically

Daily drive an evo 8, love the thing, but there is such little opportunity to speed and its not as comfortable as a rav. I do love tinkering though, and she's reliable and I know her inside out

wtf happened? 5 years ago selling an evo 8 for a rav 4 would of been a ridiculous concept

Trying to sell a Rolls Royce Silver Spur II in this country is a joke, arabs and jeets pretending to be rich cunts while haggling to get the car for peanuts. Nothing but arabs and jeets.

>>28678592
I know what the fuck an alcohol interlock is fren.

>>28678631
Fiddy bux

>>28678620
>macho
You are why people judge me for driving an offroad ute, I drive it because it's easy to wrench, comfy and gets me through the tracks.

Would I regret moving to Toowoomba? I work remotely and make good money but literally cannot afford to buy an apartment in Brisbane.

>>28678629
Speed limits dropping
1 million Indians imported per year clogging up the roads
I'm just getting old

I wonder if it'll become a classic in 10 years, as classic muscle cars are now?

>>28678631
I was selling a veloster not long ago, same thing with the jeets. Offering literally below trade in price. I don't even respond to any brown people these days.

>>28678633
Don't blame me, blame the female gaze. Other than a vehicle that projects wealth, their most attractive rated vehicle for men are truggs (as the yanks call them).

That said, unbelievable how expensive a 4x4 Ute is. Even the Chinese junk is in the $50k range

>>28678637
it will be if car culture stays as it is with all the tiktok clout chasers. though i suspect (and hope) that the trend will die and the price of enthusiast cars will go back down a bit. wont ever be what it was before covid tho

went for a drive today and figured this was relevant

>>28678638
Evo prices never went too crazy - I paid 20k in 2014 for a decent condition imported gsr. At the height of covid distortion, Max value would have been 45k (absolute top of the market for the short period). Market has stabilised at low to mid 30s. Overall, that's more or less tracking inflation.

Can't believe how much s15 are listed for, considering what you get.

If I didn't need the back seat for a baby seat, I'd be very tempted to buy something that I could take to eastern Creek drift nights

I wonder if I'd be very regretful if I sold the evo and got a rav4? Is it worth pushing through to be the "cool" retro car guy in 15 years? I'm a home owner and a dad, and gainfully employed, I certainly don't have much time for hobbies. Anyone else in a similar boat?

>>28678640
based

>>28678632
But it's a $1 scratchie

>>28678644
doesnt matter about being the cool guy in however many years. evo 8 will always be a better car to have for an enthusiast over a rav4. i assume at least ive never driven either. i just think youll regret that exchange and might be priced out of having something that good again. like you said unless you replace it with another evo everything else is worth way too much

>>28678648
This, the evolution is going to hold its value pretty well even if you put a lot of kilometres on it, rav4 is a depreciating asset

crx guy in katoomba dm me

>>28678648
It's tough, because I live in Sydney and I can rarely open her up or throw her around. Was ok when I lived on bells line of road, but now it's crap.

Rav4 is same chassis as a Camry and desu I'm extremely impressed with the handling, relative for an SUV. It went down bells line pretty well. New cars have come a long way - plus all the suspension components are brand new, shocks/bushes/ball joints etc

>>28678649
Rav4 is holding value extremely well! One of the main reasons that I bought it

I could always sell and buy another evo later... But there's just not much that you can get for $35k these days. 2018 hilux with 200kms and dpf on it? No thanks

>>28678631
>>28678637
You don't know pain until you've tried selling a 10 year old Camry.

>>28678636
Come to Ipswich, we can be friends

>>28678662
i drive in sydney all the time mate ur just coping. i flog my cars around everywhere and never had a problem with cops or tickets. just remember where the camreas are

>>28678663
Lol. Trade that shit in, for your own mental health!

>>28678667
Where abouts? I'm out West
Bells line, putty, old pac - it's not worth speeding there, so heavily policed
Wisemans ferry has plenty of cops
Even going down to Goulburn from Oberon you risk a patrol car/bike

Speeding fines are no joke these days, and you're basically in jail for doing 30k over, it's fucked

>>28678669
im in katoomba but work up and down the coast. my place to penrith i do like 120-140 last few years never been caught. i have waze up on my phone but. bells line is shit cos cops know about it now and sit on it. hawksebury road through srpingwood down to richmond is pretty good if you dont get some slowpoke infront of you.
ive done the shooters hill rd route back from canberra a few times too and no cops there, really good drive too

>>28678486
My 25 year old BMW starts every time and I don't worry about anything going wrong on it for several years

>>28678669
>>28678674
does putty road still have those goddamn contraflows? is it also a cop magnet too?

>>28678694
dno mate havent been on it for nearly 10 years

Any of the oldfags still check in every now and then?

>>28678697
yes im one of them

>>28678702
Cool, me too

>>28678703
hows things?

>>28678704
lame and gay

>>28678705
many such cases

>Get new job
>Start very early
>Everyone else on the road is some faggot tradie
>Every fucking morning these faggots are trying to race me at stop lights in their shitbox utes or tailgating with highbeams on.
I hate these subhumans like you wouldnt believe.

>>28678486
I have this experience with my 24 year old celica.

>>28678712
Nothing better than a traditional in the 2.8 gutlux pulling up in the lane beside me because they think they will beat me to the next set of lights, I am half way there by time they reach the speed limit, they speed to catch up rinse and repeat

>>28678644
You sound like a genuine faggot and its incredibly feminine to be this obsessed with image.

>>28678694
I think so. The road surface never recovered from the 2019 bush fires

>>28678715
Same with the evo, been very reliable. And if there's an issue, I likely know how to fix it, or what I can upgrade to work around it.
That said, central locking remote is currently on the Fritz and cbf pulling the ETACS to check the circuit board

>>28678722
Meh. I'm married, and in my 30s & maturing.
Like it or not, life is a popularity contest and your image plays a part.
I actually want comfort and safety more than anything, but many 4x4s are now engineered like road cars, rather than ladder frame leaf spring offroaders, so it's not a choice with compromise. It's also by far the most popular new car category in Australia and USA, so not sure why you've got your panties in a bunch.

>>28678720
Comical seeing them puke out black smoke as they push as hard as their automatic gearbox will let them.

>>28678712
had some jeet in a corolla start speed matching me when went past him, we ended up doing 20 over and he still kept hanging in my blind spot. my left turn was up ahead but he insisted on staying there so i just stomped the pedal and shot in front. guy's now trying to keep up with me doing 100 before the turn, then at the chicanes on this particular road i could see him slowing way down while i just kept it pegged at the limit lol

>>28678735
Unfortunately popularity has nothing to do with quality. In fact it seems to have a negative correlation

>>28678749
Why are jeets like this? Happens to me all the time on the m1, they are sitting in the far right lane 10 under the limit, go to the middle lane and overtake at 7 over the limit, they match speed.

>>28678762
(its because there's no standard for driving in pooland)

>>28678762
In murica it's the hwhites that do this. And the mexicans cut you off if they see you going faster than them in any lane. They're all quite annoying

Are there any good camping spots that aren't full of kids and 4x4 faggots up sunshine coast way?

>>28678764
Ever noticed how Jeetho trucks have 2 truck drivers? One has a license and speaks English, the other reverses the truck.

>>28678760
Hey, I never said that I wanted a Ford Ranger!

>>28678762
They have this weird desire to have physical proximity to white people. Similar to how the Chinese can only copy and not innovate, the jeet tries larping as a white

>>28678767
Mexicans have a disgusting record for being dui, unregistered, uninsured, hitting citizens, ruining their lives, and running back over the border. 3rd worlders should NOT be on the roads

>>28678780
Is this why jeets all want a mustang? Pretty sure every ecoboost owner in australia is a Jeet

>>28678762
i've posted this before, but another time i had a close encounter of the jeet kind
>friday midnight, coming home from some cheeky hooning
>am in left lane, only other car i can see ahead is a white camry
>as i get closer he changes lanes into mine
>don't think much of it, move to the right lane since my turn is coming up
>camry changes lanes into mine again
>ok...
>see some hyundai crossover further ahead waiting to turn right into the same side street i need to turn at
>the white camry has stopped between the crossover and myself
>for some reason there is a sudden wave of traffic so the crossover and i are gonna be a minute or two
>could see it was an older jeet driving, already seeing bizarre behaviour from him i started counting
>he sat between us for 30 secs before finally deciding to change lanes and continue on ahead
sometimes i wonder if it was my yellow headlights, guy must've been a moth in his previous life

>>28678781
most of em in my area are women

>between hobbies and starting to get really bored/feel that first tingle of depression
>don't have room to own a project car

Taking hobby recs

>>28678799
Every ecoboost i see is either a jeet or a boomer woman so I guess your point is valid

>>28678803
boomer women would be a more accurate description yeah, and I have seen those black and white mustangs with "PUNJAB" written on the doors

On top of the price of the car itself, how much do i budget to import a car from japan?

>>28678781
Did you ever see that cringe edited video of a mustang meet at blacktown kmart? The most goblin looking pot bellied turban fake qualifications it engineer Indian crowd ever.

Yes,they want the stolen valour of Aryans, yet refuse to actually embody any of the values or actions.

>>28678792
You might get a tickle out of this, have you read about Indian juggernaut theory?

>>28678801
ECU tuning
Home renovation
Reading
Motorcycling

>>28678803
Yeah, as much as I'm glad we still have manual v8 sports cars available in the country, the mustang driver image is tarnished

>>28678818
>Indian juggernaut theory

Any advice for finding cheap starter shitboxes? Seems much more expensive now and when the odd option pops up on Carsales I never hear back

>>28678595
They're really not too bad, they aren't fast or particularly refined things but they work for what they're intended to do- go off road, be a bit of a farm wagon
Provided you sorta keep that in realistic expectations they're not inordinately difficult mechanically. Everything is old and tired after 50 years but its also not like anyone got them going fast enough to hit anything fast enough to seriously bend them either!
Obviously a frame off, full resto is heaps of work, but keeping it looking like a rats nest, get the engine reliable and sort out all the other rotten bits of rubber, fucked cables, clogged up radiator and rattly bits will keep anyone busy enough for life. You could go something like an older Izuzu turbo diesel engine and driveline like the army did with the Perentie and that will make them a much easier mechanical platform.

But really, if its lasted this long with what its got, chances are its probably still fine

are there any cheap enthusiast cars left in this shithole country?

>>28679603
if there are you'd have to be quick. maybe old school newspaper classifieds might have a gem or two. wouldn't be surprised if there's an old dude or lady that doesn't really into computers and probably has a really nice car they want to sell

>>28678848
This isn't the best write up, but close
https://indiacurrents.com/crushed-by-the-juggernaut/

Effectively, Indians have a long tradition and perhaps a semblance of "honour" to be close to and crushed by large moving objects. They can't help but get crushed by trains, and now that the white man's engineering has given them motor cars that their monkey brain cannot fully comprehend, all they do is extend the 2 tonne hunk of metal as their own person needing to be close to other people and items. Like lemmings, but instead of a cliff, it's getting close to heavy moving objects

>>28678866
It needs to be your full time job. All the third worlders and intergenerational welfare recipients spend all their time lowballing and arbitraging the good deals. Yet another disastrous impact of mass immigration and the welfare state.

>>28679603
As above, no.

I'm sad that I never got into v8s as I was a JDM fag. Now they're gone. Mustangs are way over priced, and so is the Nissan z

Wrx is plentiful, they're just a little "soft" compared to the old days

>>28679791
v8 soarers go for pretty cheap if you want jap v8. the jz ones are much more expensive, can only assume it's because people think the v8 will guzzle fuel. can even manual swap them which would probably be really fun to drive, ive always wanted to try out a 1uz with a 5 speed.

>>28678636
Toowoomba is ass, you're better off living on the outskirts of Ipswich so you're still fairly close to Brisbane.

>>28678697
I used to be on /o/ near daily about 8 years ago but I lost interest during COVID, I'm only just started to come back weekly at this point.

>>28678712
Worse still is an old Commo that uses halogens but some faggot has put cheap eBay LEDs in it that just spray everywhere.

>>28679804
It's a shame lexus never did manuals on their rwd cars. I don't need huge power, just enough to spin the rear wheels

Watching YouTube, I get second hand fatigue with guys doing a complex swap and nothing working out easy! Only oem plus for me

>>28679811
I've been enjoying this thread, moving nice and quickly. Nothing profound needs to be discussed.

I miss the forum days, which is code for I only want to talk to whites, preferably 105iq and up

>>28679836
>I've been enjoying this thread, moving nice and quickly. Nothing profound needs to be discussed.
It's going at a faster pace than I would've thought, I didn't think many people would still be around to recognize it.

How many other QLD anons in here? Anyone ever take some of the twisty roads up to Purling Brook Falls?

>>28679836
i believe the 2nd gen IS250/350 had a manual

>Jimmy has moved out
is the era of neets over?

>>28679863
Only as an Altezza I think, pretty sure no Lexii have been sold with a stick

appears they were factory manual but pretty low production
ive got an auto 250. good car but pretty boring, dont know how much a manul would improve that

>>28679840
O/ has plenty of potential!

What's QLD like these days? I know your cops are second only to Vic with corruption. You guys used to be laid back and aussie, but covid sent all the Zionist boomers up there, then your cheaper land prices sent the lefty Melbourne refugees and Sydney people locked out of the local housing market. Seems it'll be like Sydney soon, and getting browned as well

>>28679863
All those cars are getting very old :( even mighty Nippon steel cars don't last forever. Niggling wiring issues aren't fun.

If I ever have issues with the evo, I'm going aftermarket ecu and racing spec wiring harness. All new sensors. Fuck diagnosis time.

>>28679886
Yeah, would have to be a manual with an lsd.
If I didn't need a back seat, I'd probably be in a 370z

>>28679836
>Watching YouTube, I get second hand fatigue with guys doing a complex swap and nothing working out easy! Only oem plus for me
fair enough and that's one of the reasons i manual swapped my cressida, it was extremely straightforward. the neat thing about that car is that you can get mounts to stick a 1uz in if you want.
the soarer v8 conversions are quite sorted out now, what with 20+ years of knowledge. there's bolt in kits available, not cheap but they're out there.
>>28679877
the first gen es300s (based on the wide body/xv10 camry) came with a manual. rarer than unicorn dust though

>>28679888

It's been turning into a busy hellscape for a few years now, COVID ruined everything basically. I've visited family in East Melbourne and things seem a lot better there than here, both for pricing and for annoying as fuck traffic.

>>28678464
My wife bought a demo Corolla, manual sedan, in 2020. Cost ~$23k

Been a while. Still fucking about with Mokes, most of the way through restoring dad's original one.
Been through a couple cars recently, latest buy is yet another E30. 104,000km, body 99.9% rust free and really straight which is great. Fixed a bunch of problems, needs a new roof though. Should make some cash on it.

>>28678697
Reporting in

>>28679899
beautiful, jealous

>>28679886
at least for my cressida the manual made it so much fun to drive, i racked up 50,000 km in 2 years driving the piss out of it for fun and as a daily. for a frumpy churchmobile it was more nimble than you'd think, probably because in japan these were sold as regular, luxury and sports/performance cars. people like turning them into drift missiles but i really do think you'd have more fun with the stock suspension.
the is250s seem more isolated/coccooned from the outside though so it might be a bit more numb/dull.

>>28679840
bullbar falcon anon here yeah I'm qld, but I enjoy the mt tambourine drive a bit more at certain hours, even during the day.

>>28679907
yeah its very numb. power isnt bad but you feel pretty removed from it when youre driving. i guess thats the point of it though.

>>28679886
Neat, a 6 speed manual with the 2GR or the V8 in the F would be pretty fun

Moke dash came up nice for painting myself and minimal idea what I'm doing. 2 pack is not forgiving

>>28679903
Paid 8k, just have to be lucky and know where to look

>>28678595
I've helped rebuild a 64, don't know how much different they are from series 3s but aside from parts availability they are not a huge challenge to deal with.

>>28678595
Parabolic leaf springs will be your best friend.
They go great with a tdi swap

>>28679910
>bullbar falcon
the one with the 4wd wheels and tyres and kinda looks like a safari build? i thought you were in SA
>>28679911
if you want a cressy there's a carsales listing in syd thats going for 7800. i know that same light blue car was posted at 12k a year or two ago. seems to be in really good shape, has nice sheepskin seat covers, interior is very clean, no rust, it even has the dealer/oem headlight protectors. done 263k km so there might be the possibility that the head gasket is fixed too.

>>28679922
nup queenzlandar but I see a 60/40 split for urban/rural driving so I went with road tyres for now. Once these wear out I'm going with big all terrains next with white tyre lettering for maximum swag.

>>28679922
yeah that is nice. ive always liked them but im finding that 3 cars is the limit of what i can reasonably maintain/use. been thinking of getting rid of the lexus for something more fun but would prob want a manual for that. are manual ones super rare? cant see any for sale at the moment
ideally would get a 180sx but theyre all flogged or 30k+ these days so wont be happening

>>28679943
yeah i think all the manual 250s ppl are holding on to. i see one (1) on carsales, 2009 model in ivslanhoe vic. asking 10900, 6 spd. owner had it for 8 years and just did usual maintenance on it. display apparently works but touch screen non functional

>>28679958
>ivslanhoe vic
goddamn fat fingers lol. ivanhoe

>>28679962
Is Ivanhoe a town named after a promiscuous gay Russian?

>>28679958
that touchscreen is terrible desu. feels like one of those old touchscreen pda things from lates 2000s. and the fan speed controls are on there so you have to fuck around with the menus just to change it

>>28679840
The jannie must be sleeping this thred died because the fat fucking tranny always got buttblasted then banned everyone who posts in it and or deletes the thred.

>>28679971
Would jannies even care about these threads now? The last /dat/ was years ago as far as I know.

>>28679966
probably

>>28679973
It is the same tranny that has been spamming threds since 2015.
The faggot who saves everyone's images then pretends to be them on other boards

>>28679938
lol nice
>>28679968
geez. is there a backup control at least? cant imagine the pain of not being able to turn on your fan because the goddamn touchscreen died

>>28679984
you can set the auto fan with a physical button and control the temperature too. usually i just turn the screen off and set the temp to lowest and turn the auto fan on and off as it gets too hot/cold

>>28679986
well at least there's a backup in that case

'03 E39 525i. Genuinely the best car I've owned. Shits on my VE, and is comfy as fuck. Something go wrong? No worries, its easy to fix. Looks grouse too

>>28680154
My E39 pissed me off so much I got rid of it after only 6 months kek. They're also surprisingly boaty, they're definitely overrated when it comes to talk of their handling.

e34 looks better imo

>>28680156
Yeah it can be a bit at times, since I've whacked some coilovers on though it feels a lot better. Suspension refresh goes a long way

>>28680159
It's not just suspension, even the steering felt really heavy.

>>28680154
Great cars. I had a manual swapped 530 on coilovers and it drove so well

>>28680160
Yeah I dont mind that desu. Coming from a VE where the wheel was so big and the steering kinda middle of the road, I wanted more feel and weight behind the turn

>>28680163
This wasnt up for sale recently was it? Swear I saw a similar one in the E39 FB group

my old coke dealer used to drive a clapped out e39 lol
think hes in prison now

>>28680154
>>28680157
>>28680163
Comfy to be posting with some bimmerbros.

>>28680165
i had a ve omega wagon and it was awful. was boaty but somehow still uncomfortable ride and it would sway around on the highway like crazy
thankfully i didnt have to drive it for long because the timing chain fucked it

>>28680171
I had a 2010 SV6 sedan. Yeah it went like the clappers (for a plater) and had the sporty look and all, but it just felt so bland and wishy washy. Then alloytec did alloytec things and I sold the fucker

are those 5.75" sealed beams? if so that'd be great to get cheap glass replacements from the local auto stores. got mine for about 17 bucks each a year or two ago

>>28680178
They're the original Euro smiley's that came with it, pretty impressive that they've held up well and do a great job for night driving.

>>28680177
Kangaroo Point just on the southern side of the Hawkesbury River Bridge.

>>28680166
Yes, I sold it in September ish. Bought it absolutely fucked, fixed a lot of stuff, moved it on. I've done that with the past few cars I've had, firstly with a AW11 MR2, now this E30 is the candidate as posted earlier.
So if anyone ITT knows a boomer who wants a peach auto 325 convertible tell them to wait a few months and it'll be on Carsales.

>>28680202
What's the go with the blue E30 these days? I remember you repaired it after the tree came down on it, but that's the shell of it in the background of that picture isn't it?

>>28680203
Yes that's it. I had to do a whole bunch of bodywork to it and then got it painted. Job is mid, not super happy with it, but the colour is nice at least.
It's currently just languishing as I'm busy with uni and all the other cars and bikes.
First job is to put the entire sunroof mechanism back in which is why I've been procrastinating so bad.
The motor is almost complete though which is nice. Full forged M42 with custom everything and a GTX2860 on the side

are bmws really as nice to drive as people say?

>>28680208
Genuinely, yes. Things get a little weird in the early 2010s models since they wanted them to be more on the comfort luxury end of the scale rather than sporty, so they took on a boat feeling, and then went back to balanced between sport and comfort in the very late 2010s.

I still like the F10 despite it being a big early 10s boat, it feels like a 7 Series and is comfy on the highway.

>>28680212
is the e92 meme real?

>>28680208
I bought a mustang instead of an m3 or m2 because I didn't like how they drive or how they sound. Also less comfy.
I also am retarded.

>>28680222
What meme are you referring to?

>>28680235
that they're the most cost effective solution for enthusiasts and really good to drive

werent they notoriously unreliable?

>>28680236
>most cost effective
Heavily depends on the engine imo. The twin turbo is a nightmare, I'd only ever consider one with the N52 (325 or 330). They're all really good to drive, I think my all time favorite BMWs to drive would be the E60 (better handling overall), then the E92 and then the E38 (obvious reasons, those things are beautiful but obvious very large and not meant for hard cornering).

>>28680237
What? E92s? Like I said above, the twin turbos are nightmares on wheels. Do not touch them.

Is ACT a good place to be a car guy, I need to jump ship from VIC before its too late

>>28680265
That pic has aged pretty bad now, a lot changed post-COVID. Sydney actually has more trannies and homos than Victoria now, stats say a large amount migrated there after COVID. QLD has also become extremely jeeted and WA is a land of meth.

>Is ACT a good place to be a car guy
Lots of car thefts, so that's up to you. Believe it or not, but VIC is about as good as it gets in this cunt now. Shit has gone retarded nationwide in the last few years.

>>28680265
tasmania is cool af tho

>>28680277
>Believe it or not, but VIC is about as good as it gets in this cunt now
What, with the massive ethnic crime problems? Sudoniggers running around slicing people up in public with machetes? Entire swathes of suburbia out west where white people are an extreme minority? The state with the highest debt to GDP of all states and territories? Record high crime but magistrates down there have a complete inability to lock anyone up and will instead authorise the release of actual criminals with the smallest bail possible?

Victoria's well fucked and yeah it's a *little* bit of the pot calling the kettle black because I live in NSW, but literally everything I hear in the news out of VIC is telling me that the state and Melbourne in particular is a complete disaster. It's a shame because I lived in Melbourne for a couple of years before 2020 and quite liked it but it seems to have really fallen apart in a big way recently.

If I had to pick anywhere right now it would be QLD followed by WA. Queensland is the place to be, far more sensible road policing and car modification laws, absolute shitloads to do, and great weather and beaches. NSW is experiencing a lot of white flight at the moment with white Aussies packing up and leaving for QLD and WA, I can only imagine the problem is worse in Victoria. Tasmania is a good spot but unfortunately difficult to find good employment.

>>28680311
>Queensland is the place to be
i just wish they'd put the signs on the mobile speed cameras. and rego tax should be by vehicle weight, cylinder count is silly

>>28680277
Say what you want about S.A, we still have walk-in rego (or online) with no mandatory vehicle inspections, ever.
Unless a cop puts a defect sticker on your car.

why the fuck does every shitstain dual cab driver think they have a sports car? retard cuts across 3 lanes to be at the front of the lights and still loses to some grandma in a honda jazz

>>28680311
WA is doing its best to be the most tyrannical. The premier was doing his best to outdo Dan Andrews during Lockdowns. WA is also doing some fucked up shit with the firearms registry, with QLD hot in toe

I'm seriously and unironically keeping a close eye on USA to balkanise (and move to the white nation once the dust settles) or legit Russia, who has one of the few world leaders that hasn't gone and kissed the wall

>>28680337
Basically 4x4 Ute's are what p platers and hoons moved to, once cops started targeting modified sports cars too hard. They're also relatively cheap and more practical, and most are rwd so they still hoon around in them.

Good old government, now these guys are in cars twice the weight, no sway bars, and 32 inch mud tyres pulling crazy manoeuvres on the roads... But luckily they aren't in a v6 commodore with lowering springs and a ned Kelly sticker, mirite?

>>28678470
Nta but would rather spend 40k on an 8 year old bmw 540i or something

>>28679603
GC8 WRX is a 10k car every day of the week
R31 skylines are dropping in prices now compared to covid, running manual for ~6k is as good as you'll get for a rwd "jap" car
V35 Skyline
Toyota Soarers aren't too expensive, 1jz and 1uz
Mazda 929 with the dohc v6 is an honourable mention
There's plenty of options around just don't expect cheap silvias and gtst skylines

>>28678816
Its been a long time since I imported but I budgeted about 10k to include shipping, transport insurance, new tyres, seatbelts, child seat anchors, compliance inspection, towing, paperwork costs, rego, auction fees, people to load it on the boat, storage fees etc
I'm not entirely sure what it runs at now, there's still a few places around like Ironchef imports, J-spec Imports that bring in cars and are well regarded for their service. Going it alone, don't recommend it

>>28678848
Juggernaut theory is a real eye opener. The symbol of India is the sky wheel and it is their form of the Universal Saturn worship of ancient times where we also get our Knights of the Round Table and Joshua rotated around the walls of Jericho and similar cultural artifacts world wide. William Simpson wrote a great book about these wheel cults in 1894, discussed here:

https 8ch dot net/catastrophism/res/39.html
[T.b.c...]

>>28680514
[...continued]
How this plays out in India is a belief in reincarnation and that being crushed under the Holy Wheel is the highest religious honour. They then respawn as a Jeer with better luck.

Travellers have observed them trying to do this for centuries.
[T.b.c...]

>>28680518
[...continued]
Any wheeled vehicle will do. It should look a bit like an accident. Or rather, gives God (Saturn) a getout clause if he wants to spare them. If you notice, they always make it look like an accident but they have a friend ready to record it whenever tbey are crushed by a vast wheeled vehicle.

One of them recently crashed an Air India jet full of people to this end. The Hindu pilot just turned off the fuel to the engines just after they took off. The Christian co-pilot was horrified and tried to restart the engines but it was too late.

Their highest relugious honour is to be crushed by a wheeled vehicle. Insanely these people are given driving licences. Even truck licences, the craziest possible thing for a people who are part of a truck-death cult.

>>28680494
10k? i've seen absolute destitute pov pack corollas going for that

>>28679836
>It's a shame lexus never did manuals on their rwd cars
i think the only v8 manual toyota ever did was for those uber rich oil sheikhs in dubai. there was a model of land cruiser or something that had a 2uz mated to a 5 speed from the factory. but good luck getting that lol. still that makes me very curious to see what part numbers the bell housing and all that would be

>>28680514
>>28680518
>>28680529
goddamn...suddenly everything about them makes sense

>>28680939
huh ok turns out the 100 series land cruisers in oz also had an option for a manual behind the 2uz...seems like it was the h151f

>>28680452
true, i have been keeping an eye on gc8s. i wonder why they never went up in price heaps like everything else. they are still a well respected jdm car. maybe people are terrified of the headgasket meme
soarer would be nice but no manuals unfortunately

>>28680311
Everyone white is moving out of Melbourne and the west to somewhere in Gippsland, sadly the government knows this and is slowly turning all the small white towns Indian and african

>>28680239

E92 335is are reliable though

>>28681006
Bendigo is still white, as is everything toward The Grampians. Melbourne is actually looking whiter now than it did a few years ago, I've just figured that was due to people fleeing back to their home countries when the COVID restrictions eased up.

>>28681019
What the fuck is a seppo

>>28681008
Like a million people have come back this year

>>28681042
Seen most of the country lately? Even Brisbane is getting jeeted and the only white part of Adelaide left is the hills and the southern suburbs. It's over.

>>28681022
Septic yank

>>28681046
Dick Smith was right, economic growth is the cancer that will kill australia

>>28681047
Disgusting. Why would anyone want to do that?

>>28681051
Because Americans don't have their own opinions, they are septic tanks that consume other people's shit until they are full enough to spill that shit out of their overflow pipe into the next seppo.

>>28681052
Yeah? Well maybe the dingo ate your baby. You ever think of that?

>>28681056

Well the fact gc8s are old and have been flogged endlessly by lebbos for the last 20 years probably deters a lot of people from buying one
Manual swap for the soarers is really straight forward its just a game of collecting all the pieces

>>28681060
devil's advocate, an unhealthy number of people here grovel and suck up to the govt and cops too.

>>28681237
We don't have the same celebrity worship culture that fuels the shit dribble exchange in America, never met a person who thinks either side of government are good people.

Who here coon chrome?

>>28681283
Don't be unna unna and sniff petrol from a can

>>28681282
i feel like that's largely due to people on the news and internet just saying shit that gets the most attention or thumbs up etc.
but if you actually live over there, at least in a smaller/quiet town, you'd hear a much more similar/level-headed response to the current state of governmental affairs.
i think grovelling might not be the right word for it, obedience probably fits better. no end to how many people would bitch about getting a speeding ticket for example, but then when they see someone else getting one, the obnoxious cackling and shrill laughter commences.

>>28681291
People with jobs simply don't have the time to pay attention to government until it becomes a law, passing off the silent majority is how you collapse an economy

>>28681291
Yeah, I don't like people that shit on America and Americans. They tend to base their views on a propagandised lefty liberal noisy minority. Ironically, nearly all negative outcomes in America is based on the proliferation of blacks and spics. All negative social policy is either from black and spics, or Jewish subversion and fraudulence.

By all accounts, ridgey didge Americans are super friendly and approachable. They may as "stupid questions" but that's only out of curiosity and friendliness, and the fact that as Americans they are unironically at the centre of the world and do not concern themselves too much with formally being abreast of politics and culture of various backwaters. I don't blame them.

Note that places like Canada, Europe and Australia are starting to see similar issues to America as we get more and more Africans/asylum seekers and various soft oppression and surveillance state.

I have a lot of time for my American cousins. I am open hearted to my European cousins that may have been snarky for a long time, but are coming around now that they have Noticed and have to deal with open borders for a decade or so, and it's impacts.

We're all in this together bros

>>28681317
>They may as "stupid questions" but that's only out of curiosity and friendliness
had a coworker that lived in the US for 10 years say that where he worked they were "ignorant, but not in the derogatory sense" because like you said, they just don't get exposed to other cultures so they're genuinely curious and want to see perspectives.
>We're all in this together bros

i miss my old one, pic related. manual swap is totally worth it. biggest problem would be finding the bell housing though unless it's been jz swapped

Am I an utter moron for wanting to spend 15-20k on a Toyota crown hybrid (Or a late 2nd gen IS350/ early 3rd gen IS if the idea of a crown isn't smart) when I'm also saving for an apartment while living with my parents? I've got a mediocre, base 07 impreza hatch I got from a family friend and have been craving something else pretty much since before I owned the damm thing. I finally am earning reasonable money but buying anything like this would be a reasonable chunk of savings in the end.

I really want to move out finally but I feel that if I purchase an apartment I'm not gonna have the money on hand to buy a nice car for a long while. Am I an idiot? Is moving out ASAP the obvious right move or is delaying it to have a comfy car an ok decision?

NSW is up to 30 years now for historic registration, and doing some kike shit with modifications as if a 30 year old car can rely solely off factory parts

>>28681563
As long as you have at least a 5% deposit, savings matter very little, your buying power is dependent on your ability to service the loan. Buy the crown, king

>>28681672
>doing some kike shit with modifications as if a 30 year old car can rely solely off factory parts
Not true. Period correct modifications are allowed with no certification, and if its significantly modified and has an engineer's certificate it goes on a conditional plate but with the same 60 day free use and a logbook

Rec reg let's dirt bikes ride off road and on certain roads to get to trails. Costs ~$90 per year and the only inspection involved is to make sure you have lights, a horn and a mirror.
Club reg is for vehicles 25 years and older.

>>28681712
This only exists because vicpol are riding around on brand new ktms fining people for no rego/no license/reckless acceleration for breaking traction on fucking dirt.
I hate vicpol more than anything.
Most fun i ever had on a dirt bike was getting chased to a hillclimb called unconquerable going up it and the cops yelling for me to come down until they attempted the hill flipped and broke their triple clamps good times

>>28681717
I go riding every other weekend and am part of a few Facebook groups.
The only thing the police ding you for are unlicensed, rego/reg requirements and riding single track.
Single track is the only thing that pisses me off

>>28681712
Also a number plate on a dirt bike is dangerous as fuck, I have seen a thigh cut to the bone by a number plate

>>28681719
Nah fuck off they want you to have mirrors, number plate in a dangerous position, even a fucking light shining on your number plate. The Gestapo are why I stopped riding dirt bikes it is as expensive as doing track days to ride off road and also yes single tracks are illegal fuck them cunts.

I love my Triton. There's so many better utes on the road, but my Triton has taken me all over the country without issue.

>>28681723
I keep seeing a commonwhore Ute with triton badges on it and I always smile when I see it.

>>28681720
>>28681722
The bracket will break long before that happens, or just screw it to the mud guard like everyone does.
If you're really worried about it you could line the plate with tape or hose.
Mirror is needed when you're on the road between trails.

You're making a mount out of mole hills, all sounds like cope because you did the wrong thing.

>>28681434
havent seen u around for a while lad you still got them?

>>28681932
>>28681672
nah only needs a pink slip if its already regod. only needs a blue slip the same as any car if its been out of rego for 3 months. ive got some bikes and an xf on historics and never had any issues with the mods, theres nothing crazy done to them though but aslong as you can prove that the mods could be done back in the orignal era with similar parts they will let you through. havent really had any dramas with cops either, only pulled over once to check the log book was filled out that day and he didnt care about anything else

125k kilometres
Automatic
Recently serviced

I joked if they were selling it anytime soon and she was kind of open to the idea asking how much I would offer. I'm guessing they owned it since new and has been the 2nd car/wife grocery getter?

Think it's worth getting as a daily?

>>28682915
theyre cool. 125k is really low so for reliability thats great, mum works with a woman that just got rid of hers at 350k or around there

>>28681752
Yea but why are they proud of a chevy engine?

>>28681729
Its actually incredible how little anyone cares about mustangs.

>>28682946

How much do you think I should offer?

>>28682983
5-6k? seems about reasonable for it but idk much about the market for them

>>28682956
They were a lame replacement for the falcon and the only people buying them are women and jeets. It's funny.

>>28683080
It is funny but its also frustrating. We need more people buying cars like these if we want more of them. Tainting the image with poo is a surefire way to kill even the most distant traces of old Australia.

>>28682834
Ive had it off the road for resto work for the last year and a bit, hoping early net year it'll be back out
Who's asking

>>28683174
i thought u had 2? i used to have a white gen 3 liberty wagon. got a black gen4 now lol

>>28682956
It's because they're just not interesting or all that different, Mustangs have been floating around in fairly alright numbers here since the late 90s. But whenever I saw any of those new HSV sold Corvettes or Camaros, I'd feel genuinely excited since since they were actually something stylistically different from what we already had.

There's some boomer in my town that had a Camaro and I'm happy every time I see it, it just feels different to the Mustang. I suppose the fact that GM didn't shove a gimped version on us like Ford did with EcoBoost also helps its image.

Got a shit box old LC Torana 4 cylinder out of a field, no interior but otherwise not too bad
Reckon I'll try to chuck a Rover 3.5 V8 in it, unironically too slow to drive safely with the original engine

>Reckon I'll try to chuck a Rover 3.5 V8
Surely you have access to better options than that lump of shit

Cool car but I agree rover v8 is an odd choice. Unless you just have one lying around already

>>28683181
I've had 3 but only ever one at a time

Someone posted a picture of my old silver one a while ago here and it got me by surprise
I remember seeing you around and then the car vanished so wasn't sure if you just left the area or what.
Friend of mine has a black gen 4 sti, they are a cool car, design has held up really well

>>28683204
dude just ls swap it bro
in all seriousness...maybe a chrysler small or big block? 318 or 383
mayhaps a 1uz? although apparently it might be a bit tight since it's so wide

>>28683282
Sold the white one at the beginning of Covid for 6k cos I had no work. Should have kept it though because I got jobkeeper like a month later and they’re up to about 12 now. Got the gen4 in 2022. They’re really good cars, did like 50k kms in mine in 2 years and never had an issue except a cracked radiator.
What are you doing on the one u have now?
And do u know who I am? Im good friends with George lol

>>28683289
>mayhaps a 1uz?
God's engine. But any random camry v6 would be a better option than a rover block.

How much is a 253 these days? Could be easy to get a bell housing if it’s a gm box. I assume they weigh fuck all so even 253 would be quick enough

>>28682915
They're usually really trouble free, sure some parts will be old and tired that comes with a 25 year old car but my sister had one for ages and it was rock solid. She only really sold it because it was looking a bit shabby with the paint fading, sun damage and had about 200+ thou k's on it. Still drove like new
They're worth nothing as a trade in, so if you start around 3-4k and maybe upper limit of 5k the owner gets a decent price and you get groceries

>>28683294
Bit of rust repair which I'm finishing up now, then it'll be paint and I've got some factory aero to go go on too.
You be careful around that guy he is fucked. Did you used to work at LSC?

>>28683204
>Rover 3.5 V8
oh god no
They came with a straight 6 of about 186cu so you could wedge even an RB30 in there with a battery relocation and make smoke for days frying pizza cutter tyres

>>28683316
Did you post abt it a while ago? Saw someone doing rust shit on a crx on here. How hard is it? I’ve got some to do on a falcon I have got no idea where to even start/what can be repaired without welding in new panels
And no lol you always thought that was me but Ive said before I’m not him. I was gonna ask if ur mate with the sti lived at the top of lovel. There’s 2 liberty autists in town

next door neighbour is building a big garage/workshop sorta thing. wonder if i can make a new wrenching friend right next door...one can dream

>>28683336
Have you never talked to your neighbour?

>>28683324
Nah thought the guy on lovel was you
I had never picked up a welder before I started this, probably far too much for a noob but trial by fire, be autistic enough and itll work out.
New quarter skins, patched rear floor and replaced rear wall. Could have done it far quicker and easier but this is how the factory manual says to do it and I dont want to see evidence of all the shit after im done.

>>28683323
torana LC 4 cylinder models are shorter than the 6 cylinder models thoughever. Not by much, but could be enough to make that a bit of a squeeze

>>28683396
looks really straight man good job. is it the rear quarter or the roof part youre replacing? nice garage/workshop youve got too.
do you know what colour youre going to paint it yet?

>>28683341
not really no. the dad was a taxi driver apparently. took my dad home once, about 20 odd years ago. they only ever had grocery getters/shitboxes so i thought they weren't really car people. i mean it's likely that they still aren't but you never know...

>>28683399
I was thinking, maybe the 6 would twist it into a prezel shape as well, but I didn't know that about the LC's. They sort of were the awkward middle kid of the torries in some ways and never really got the love. Which is a bit of a shame as they were otherwise fine and I quite liked the Ford Cortina and Holden Torana sized cars from the 70's
Honestly, any 1.8 or 2L 4cyl is probably a good fit for them and it wouldn't really need nearly as much of a shoehorn

Thank you, its getting whole new skins, so the grey part of the cuts I guess. It only had a little bubble but i didnt want to see the patch from the inside so i went and cut the whole side off to hide it.
Itll be black again, its meant to be black and having a mismatched bay would just piss me off

how do you even approach rust repair like this? everytime i think about attempting it it just seems overwhelming or i'll fuck it up and my car will be junk

>>28683493
NTA but it's not all that difficult. Basic tools like an angle grinder, spot weld drill bit, small and large chisels, hammers etc. I used a dremel for the really tight areas. A welder than you can turn right down is good.
Just remember it's only a hunk of steel, you can't fuck it up badly enough that it's un-fixable. Just use your brain.

I have a N/A Barra and BTR transmission out of a BA Falcon. Problem is that I don't have an ECU or wiring harness. What's the best way to control the tranny if I swap this combo into something?

megasquirt and microsquirt?

These things are pretty old now. Dad has the next generation, it wasn't a well looked after car and shit does go wrong despite being muh Honda. Even nip cars degrade over time

How hard do you think it would be to find an injected 5.0 windsor and 4spd BTR these days?

wreckers will have them but they charge a ridiculous amount for them and usually high ks by now
prob be easiest to find a wrecked au fairlane with one and buy the whole car

i miss the old days of people just having shitboxes and fucking around with them. now everyones 'build' needs to be a widebody big wing 100k car its fkn annoying :(

>do coolant flush
>thermostat housing full of rust silt from idiot previous owner running straight tap water
>leaking from housing now

>>28688366
Don't see many widebody builds here desu. Seems to be more of an American thing. Or an 86 gook who then tries to sell a 2012 model for 30k because he wasted all his money on a widebody and wheels that still don't fit properly.

>>28688366
I think that's mostly because of social media culture, and the fact that so many car scenes are non white

Once you're actually driving or wrenching or engaging, most people are generally pleasant. We're always looking for fellow travellers, you just have to find the correct sub culture

I'm salty that I missed the forum days of ecu hacking and detailed, helpful write ups to pass information along.

I don't really vibe with the Lebanese and 90iq bogan shit talking and dumb questions

Also, keen for the thread to hit the bump limit, great effort lads

shall i paint my car with 5$ cans of chinese mystery paint from the chinese shop

i painted my au with squirts and it turned out better than i expected. the metallic silver turned out way better than the black did but
if its a shitbox go ahead but youll go through a fuck load of cans

>>28688619
sounds like the kind of guy to drop 40 grand on arb gear if they made accessories for that car

Took many years but the vt/vx has really grown on me.

>>28689701
he's a broke cunt he isnt dropping 40 grand on fuck all
but he probably would if he had the coin

>>28689732
vx ss is one of the best looking cars ever imo with the foglight bumper
vy is good too but the front and back doesnt quite match as well with the roof line
