    Nope, never have never will. My poor father, he got tired of repairing my motor bike so one day he said " I you're going to be a ruff cnut you're going to fix it yourself"

    Best thing he ever did. I didn't learn to be kind, witch is what he was trying to teach me. But I'm pretty good at fixing stuff haha

    Why buy expensive things if you know you're going to break them? Just for a good laugh like Jonah said anyway not like these cars are worth that much

    You say that now, but think about Torana's, Rolla's (including 86's), Monaro's, Valiants, and pretty much any pre-90's car you care to mention. The world is running out of S13s as well.

    You live in New Zealand too which is a good start. SEVS and import taxing will stop anything interesting coming to Australia in any decent quantity for a good price. Not to mention the price of imports here is stupid.

    Its there!!

    [​IMG]

    [​IMG]

    (sorry the pics are so huge, cbf resizing)

    Just a video of one of the test drives I took it on. Clutch was slipping when it came on boost and the tps setting was up the ****, but now its all sorted and its really going good. Taken the boost up to 14psi now, soon I will be putting the T04E on as the 25det turbo I have has a crappy nylon compressor wheel :( other than that they are okay. Ball bearing, ceramic turbine and nylon compressor they spool up damn quick. They pack up with high boost sadly, Here is a pic of what happend to my mates one, the compressor wheel broke to pieces and the turbine wheel fell off!!



    And if anyone is interested Here is a video of me at my 21st cooking some tyres, who would of thought a 20det could hold 5th on two garden tiles :D
