  1. So is it possible to do it at home or am i better off paying a workshop to do it? The machanic i had around works out at Agastino Mitsubishi and said that it usually takes a couple of days to drill out the stuck studs and replace them
  2. I've been talking to shaun the entire time i have been dealing with them. Was disapointed with it as I was happy when I got my car serviced there, after all the good stuff I've heard about them in this thread the one closest to the firewall. The other end was loose but we didn't want to tighten it up incase it broke off aswell The mechanic that helped me this morning said he would take it to work and it would take a few days to repair and will cost a bit as the manifold usually need machining to make it flush again if the studs have been broken for a while, which looks like the case here.
  3. not happy with boostworx now. rang them this week to fid out what was going on with my car. They started out reassuring me that it was a detonation problem, then they were trying to tell me I had a series 2, when i have a series 1. Had one of the mechanics at work who had a 33 GTST and he said either the turbo or exhaust manifold (which is also what cubes suggested) had a look today and the one of exhaust manifold studs has broken off (can't tell if any of the other ones are). Any know where I can get this fixed and roughly how much it would cost? I was thinking about going to Adelaide turbo services on marion road this week and getting a quote from them
  4. the thing i found funny was the ride height. I'm surprised it didn't roll trying to even attempt turning a corner. that RX7 sounded awesome when it was idileing outside the spa scene. *drools*
  5. plans fell over so i ended up going down to marion and catching the last screening of it last night. would have prefered to see down there with you guys. (this movie has ruined mustangs for me now)

  10. i'n not going out to prevent anything bad happening my parent want me to sell my car after the neighbours telling them i'm a hoon.
  11. I think my neighbours have the "today tonight" sindrome where if its an import your a hoon. We live off a main road where people do speed sorry to hear about the car how badly is the bonnet and roof damaded?
  12. is it on at the drive in more than once or only on the thursday night?
  13. pretty poor here to. have been told that the issue with my car is either the turbo or exhaust manifold which aren't cheap. And was told by the neighbours that they think i'm a hoon as i bought a skyline "you don't get one of them to drive normally" aparently they saw me swerving in traffic on the way to work, theres only onw lane for me to change, my parent believe them over me and are now telling me to sell my car as they don't want the neighbour hood labelling me as a hoon. Hope someone out there has had a good week end
