  1. I understand why. They're fairly cheap in race part terms. And you don't want ignition breakdown. But, fire occasional track days, just pull them and inspect every service. Clean, adjust and replace when worn/required.
  2. I'm liking the stuff you listed in your last paragraph more these days. Personal taste and all that. Still like metallica, but agree, Lars is a dick. And tool is still awesome, but I wasn't as big a fan of their latest album compared to their previous work.
  3. I am also starting to listen to more classical stuff. Orchestral, piano, violins. Heard an Aussie opera track on ABC classical yesterday I liked randomly scrolling through stations.
  4. TL;DR Not sure if checked, but confirm no blockage in the vac/boost reference line to the ecu. Have had rich and fluctuating idle from a blocked line and ecu could read that it was under vacuum(no MAF).
  5. I'm on the same type of roster. But over a mil is just over what we can accomplish. Since we didn't have a deposit pre covid and rented, we were priced out for much longer than we were hoping. But, I already travel an hour each way to work and don't want to go further out. Anything closer to work goes up in price. Larger blocks as well, as developers are trying to buy the area and sub divide. And we just don't have 2mil + to compete for a 10-100 acre block.
  6. Hi, just wondering if there are any other audio enthusiasts here? I've been going through a phase recently, upgraded speakers, amp, got a nice pair of headphones and now chasing a nice pair of IEMs. Pic of my current speakers. DALI euphonia ms5 and cs4. Driven by NAD masters m17v2 pre pro and m27 amp. Will eventually be home theatre and stereo music listening set up.
  7. New phone pic. S24 ultra. Dads car when he came to visit the other week.
  8. Here's a few from parkway drive in Sydney September 2024. Galaxy s22 ultra
  9. The 200 hold their value, alright. Honestly, I'm not that bigal a fan of them. But, it's all personal. And I think the Toyota vs Nissan feud is as strong as the Holden vs Ford feud. I hope you get the average. Part of the reason for moving g away from Sydney was to try and get average. Even just 5. But, covid pushed the prices from affordable to unachievable. (380k to over a mil). I will admit, except for the lack of convenience, I do really like rural life.
  10. Thanks. Post whoring, it's what I do.
  11. If using a phone, hit add files, then media, then gallery, then look for whatever pic you're wanting to upload.
  12. Granny shifting instead of double clutchin' like you should. But seriously, if you need to double clutch, there's something wrong. Also, welcome.
  13. Because I can't be bothered googling, are custom boards with 10 key a thing? I like my num pad. Then again, I do t need another hobby 🙃
  14. but, but.....toyotas are unbreakable! just ask all the fanbois down here.
  15. Is it more a lawn ornament? Or do you actually drive it? As bad as their reputation, id probably be looking at a zd30. I like my niceties. Like cruise control.
  16. Nice. Did they sort out the neighbours? Or are they running more restricted? Plenty of old cheap navaras to be had on market place, once you sort through the "rare, only 5326 made, I know what I've got" crowd.
  17. I definitely wouldn't say no. Honestly, if I had the funds, I'm very interested in a GU ute.
  18. Pro tip: If your car doesn't run, you don't need to change the spark plugs. I'm at 8 years and counting.
  19. Microsoft need an ADM gtr to power their nuclear reactor? RB powah! Or, this thread may have gotten off topic.
  20. Older I get, the heavier the music. Have very much been enjoying parkway drive. And very recently, sailing before the wind. Check out misguided sunrise by them.
  21. Closest i ge to playing an instrument is either air guitar or air drums. And I'm horrible at both.
  22. Have recently been listening to a band called "sailing before the wind". Japanese metal(English lyrics). Similar to old parkway drive. Misguided sunrise is probably my current favourite track.
  23. Yeah, you can taste the spun bearings.....
  24. Welcome. The older I get, the more I prescribed to spend once, spend right. (Or, poor man pays twice). If you have a final vision in your head of what you want, try to work toward that straight off. Hi-flow turbo would be nice, but if it won't suit your final goal, it may be a waste of funds that could go towards what you truly want. I hope you can get it to that point one day. Also, pics please 🙏
  25. It's just so comfortable! Like, how hard would it be to install heated, ventilated and massage front seats in the gtr? And a night vision camera? And plush air suspension? And proximity start and entry? But seriously, stopped posting a lot when gtr stopped running. And then didn't really get back into it. And the scene has changed a lot. Then I moved rural where the car scene is prado's and 70 series.....
