i drove my 260 stagea back from brisbane to perth and i think it cost about 650 in fuel but that is doin 130/140 most of the way, running it on bp ultimate and payin $1.68 and $1.63 a ltr at two stops. It was about another 500-600 for two people for food/accomadatuion etc. and this was in march 07

Leadfoot. :3some:

"scootypuff jr"???

wtf? Sounds like a illicit drug smoking implement. :huh:

And don't let the lack of a stagea stop you from cruising, you won't be the only one!

(Yes Heath, I am talking about YOU - you are coming aren't you?)

haa. the " scootypuff jr " comment was taken from an Episode of futureama.

Basically Fry has to escape the aliens mother ship on a wind up childs toy.

thats about as much power as My partners Daewoo Lanos has.. hence its name :D

But its as reliable as the day is long.. so we are not bothering to upgrade it.

well . turns out the stagea arrives in Brisbane TODAY .. so . it apparently gets cleaned for 5-7 days.. what do they clean it with ? a toothbrush? then it needs to get complianced ( 1 week or so ? )

then get on a boat over here.. ( WA )

but .. who knows it MIGHT get here in time for the cruise..

we will be coming ( I think) wont be in Mitchy's skyline thats for sure >_< (see WA section)

Yaeh saw that last night, pass on our sincere condolences Kylie.

RIP ARRRH 33 >_<

we will be coming ( I think) wont be in Mitchy's skyline thats for sure :D (see WA section)

    • Already looked at a few prior to getting the MX5, really nice car, had all the mod cons, but I wasn't really sold on the new "look" I did miss my 2017 Limited, and I personally prefer the "look" of the older car over the new model, but, when pondering I kept going back looking at MX5's But it was same same for the new ND's, I wasn't sold on the new "look", especially the RF with its weird roof, which only half goes down, like a targa top sort of thing As I stated before, I did look at NC's, but the cars I looked at were PRHT's, but I didn't like their roof line "look" of the PRHT, until I saw the soft top version, (someone on SAU posted a for sale ad for one with a soft top that caught my attention, you can blame them for my choice.....🤣) and.... that old style detachable hard tops were available for them, which keeps the old MX5 more smoother flowing roof line, and the more rounded body style, similar to the NA-NB, to me, the arse end of the ND looks to "modern" Much like how I prefer the NC1 front bar, over the later models How long will I keep this car for is unknown, but currently, there's nothing else out there that "floats my boat" for a small, fun, little "sports car", that I can play with and enjoy looking at and driving But, who knows what the future holds, and going off current new car styling, if I replace it, it will be a older model something something       
    • looking forward to your t56 swap man its a game changer if it works! 
    • So, when are you trying the new GR86 or BRZ?
    • Uncle Duncan Yeap, FI Interchiller  Works well, normal IAT's cruising with the WTA only went from 50°c+ to 25-30°c with the interchiller  Before, when on it hard, the IAT would see 80-90°c, now, the highest has been was around 38°c IIRC IAT is measured under the blower hat I recommend it for the street or strip where your only on it hard for 10 or so seconds, but it wouldn't be efficient for sustained track use as it would heat soak from the AC turning off or whatever it does during WOT to protect the compressor It really needs the AC running for it to not heat soak and keep the WTA coolant chilled My WTA coolant temps when just cruising is around 2°c
    • Hey Mark...sorry to interrupt your career change to hair dressing... but...did you ever fit the interchiller to the commodore, and if so how was it? And, who made it?
