  1. Coolant hose from Hampton replaced and rust coloured water bleed into the system ( not healthy ). Bump Stops back in the rear. Front drive coupling needs a impact gun. Nuts been in there for 20 years. Need some front shocks. Some small rust work to clean, oh and gotta get reverse and that damn left headlight going. WOF TOMORROW....... HOPEFULLY =DDDDD
  2. Yea. He's good, just wants to be thorough with the car and I want that to be honest. I know I can go get a WOF easy from some other place down some back road but I wanna do it right the first time to his standards ( which seem to be high ) so if I get pulled over the cop won't have anything on me.Thanks Andy. Will talk soon
  3. This hose in the picture has split twice now so need a replacement asap. pick up tomorrow. Near penrose is best. This hose here. Goes to the bottom of the radiator.
  4. I think thats if cause now I put the cap back on the park light doesn't work. Whats the cure? =)
  5. Whose keen to have a calender priced up and we can all put a lil $$ to have them printed? Cause I really want a 2011 one? not too late.... We got a few photographers on here and Im sure if there is more than 4-5 of us that wants it done so if we get it priced we can spilt it the expenses and sell em.
  6. SHIIITTTTTTT My rangi fix at Hampton, has finally given in. Leaking from the top and from my rangi joint. Lol check out the colour of the water coming out. Needs a coolant flush. Cured all the rust on the top of battery plate but then realised there was more on the chassis rail... Exhaust banging on sway bar, needs to be bend down. Rust repair on inner sills. Look how secure this is =) The hose in question.. Anyone got a spare I could buy? My little list....
  7. Yea. You gotta get on the 737-300 into wellington at night. Since its a short runway and its night they slam on the anchors much more than during the day. Its awesome!!! Sucks though. Went on the A380 and you don't feel any of that. 777 I think it the noisiest, best plane for getting pushed into ya seat =) Stick to the small jet planes, much more fun =)
  8. Go for it man. I'd love to be a pilot. I love planes, the smell at the airport, the sound, would be awesome doing it for a job. I have found that if I have a PC and some head phones, is much more affordable. Microsoft flight simulator online in a pro atc game is awesome. Really serious gaming haha. I got 10,000000000s of FSX flying hours haha Go for it !!!

  10. Will do. Auto sparky got it working fine after a while few days back so strange its gone again...
  11. Ill try explain real in detail, as best I can.The far passenger side circular light only works on the first click of the little light controlling knob. When the knob is pulling up the whole way it turns off, same scenario with high beam. Fuses looked fine
  12. Spent all day Sunday working on the electrics of the car with Ray Chubb. Got everything working but today I've noticed that the passenger park light works fine but its headlight or high beam doesn't now.... Its not the bulb as I tried the bulb from the working light? Any ideas.
  13. Thanks Johno. Im going off hunting for some front shocks now =)
  14. Sounds good. Fun part is I need to get a good set off my parts car first or my car will be stuck at yours along with a tall ginger =)
  15. Any ideas on replacing the front shocks. I have a parts car but I have no idea how to remove the shocks and get them back on....
  16. Wooohooo passed authority card today =)
  17. Yea. I have no idea how the same designers made the 458 have ruined this thing. Looks ok side on but front on its horrible.
  18. Dad wanted to lease one. Took one for a drive the seats hold you well, theres nothing cooler than all the timers on the dash that time you to 100kph or 1/4 mile. The sound is so childish, it handles great, it just makes up for the build quality. Its exactly like the top gear review where hammond puts the HSV VXR8 against the S4. Exactly the same scenario Its just a car thats so fun, silly and the opposite of BMW/Audi/Merc but everytime i see one, you can't help thinking of those damn 0-100 timers haha. Take one for a run, trust me. Just drive one. Forget the build quality. Read up on some reviews and you'll find for value for money every review says the Jeep is the way to go.
  19. how could anyone ever forget the 911 though. THEY ALL LOOK THE SAME.EDIT: Don't knock a Jeep SRT8 til you drive one... Recorded a 0-to-60-mph time of 4.8 seconds compared with the Porsche's 5.1, and the Jeep didn't let up, beating the turbo Cayenne to 100 and in the quarter mile, 13.5 seconds at 101.6 mph versus 13.6 at 101.8. It also beat the Cayenne in the slalom and recorded higher lateral gs on the skidpad.
  20. Black E46 M3 behind me on Botany Rd. 2002M3 rego. And a silver Mtech 2 325i E30 on the motorway heading into the city. Looked mean.
  21. Listing expires tomorrow. If its at the anniversary meet then its definitely not for sale. I loved driving it to Gavin's and Albany this weekend. Driving it on the road was fine, I even got some honks and woooohooooooosss on the motorway today =) Love my little blue car. Don't wanna let it go now, only reason its gotten this far recently is people offering to help me get it road worthy this weekend, been awesome. Again, Ray Chubb. Rollcage.co.nz, can't thank him enough.You can have these ones Foxy =) Need all my money for rego, authority card, clubsport license, WOF, and fuel. Im now in debt instead of being broke haha EDIT: haha just noticed that, that must have been Dad bidding on them =DDDDD Birthday present =DDDD
  22. why's everyone have to own a beatle? why not a E46 m3 ( same price, more modern, better looking, pretty much better all round )
