Hey guys, I picked up this pretty lady last night. Its a 1990 GTST 4 door 4wd.
NPG coilovers, extreme 6 puk clutch, r34 neo turbo, 18x8 f and 18x9 r work wheels (any one know the model at all?), f & r strut braces, 3" exhaust, apexi pod, HKS boost gauge, front mount intercooler, m spec factory kit. Also threw in some HID's i had lying around.
Plans are for a new steering wheel as the current one is haggard as fook haha, then upgrade the fuel system (what size injectors is good?). I'm aiming for 200rwkw but time will tell.
This car makes a welcome change from previous cars including an auto charade, and 2 v8 commodores haha
I went for a lovely drive yesterday to see how the car felt on some of my favourite roads, went down the local autopro and picked up a little jack coz i knew the car didn't have one. What i didn't do was check my spare but i knew it was there and honestly how often do you get a flat.
100kms later almost home hear a little bang sorta noise, car starts pulling to the right a tad. I was devastated, started smelling the tyre so i pulled over, got the wheel off, got out the spare. OH FOOOOOK its dead flat. I should've checked it and i felt like a moron. I didn't wanna f**k my good wheel so i bolted up the spare.
Then begun the fun journey of limping the car to the nearest servo barely going fast enough to keep the car from bunnyhopping.
Finally get there and just to add to my luck the servo doesn't have a pump, i managed to burrrow one from a lovely old man which plugged into the cigarette socket. Spare didn't wanna take air. So i start ringing all the people i know to come down and go get my good wheel repaired while i waited with my car. Someone came down i basically threw the wheel through their window and told them to just get it fixed. Turns out the tyre had a gash in it and needed to be replaced, even better no where in my town had that size.
They came back and gave me a lift home, jumped in my other car and went looking for somewhere with the tyre i needed. 2 hours later i was back at the servo putting on the good wheel in the rain generally not having fun.
Touch wood I only get problems like this with this car haha
