    Ahhh interesting!! So the bolts are already in there hey! Are they just sitting in there or they holding something else up as well? Also does anyone know how many newtons they should be tightened too?? Cheers!

    Roughly How much for a Transmission Recondition?

    dont get me wrong i gave it the occasional trip up to towards redline. But it in no way had a hard life in the 40 000km's ive put on it. And i don't know if its just second hand or second hand reco but the mechanic said he's ha a look at it and the box looks good and strong.

    Whitewalls!!!!

    When i had white walls on my wagon they looked ####en dope i thought! only pain is cleaning them. dishwashing detergent, jiff, warm water and a tooth brush will be your best friend. Make sure there is NO tyre shine on the tyres at all as the silica in this will turn them brown.

    Vz 3.6 alloytech rough idle

    mine shakes to shithouse when running on gas at idle. Im talking really bad. On petrol you can barely feel it but it is still there. I've taken it back to the gas place and they checked the whole system but couldn't find any problem with the gas system. The reason it shakes more on LPG is...

    VZ wagon rear tyre wear

    get 20's and sedan superlows or lower and they will wear the **** through tyres. Rears would be lucky to last 10 000km's.

    VZ wagon rear tyre wear

    wheel alignment mate. Also he might have just been carrying a shitload of heavy stuff in the back = way more wear. Or if it's pretty low then yeah they chew through tyres pretty quickly (i know from experience hahaha)

    Altering Speaker Pods to fit 6.5"

    [General] DIY: The cheapskates way to shaving the rear wagon wiper

    thanks mate, and i agree. Checked again the other day, no rust what so ever, no leaks, no cop problems, so as far I'm on concerned if people think it's a **** of an idea they can get ****ed because it's staying on mine (and a few others) cars until it can get done properly.
