WazR32GTSt and inark.. yes i know - but well if i want cheap then thats what i have to deal with. Its all sacrifices - but one day it will lead to what I really want. Either way, if i'm saving money then i'm not going to get anything too original and don't actually care.. i care about performance first :P I probably wouldn't be modding it heavily, but if i chose to I could do so at my own pace at least.

Yer the 94 model has a few updates.. the earlier ones have the CA18DET in them.

I've considered the 89 thing.. but to be honest, I'd rather import a stock as a rock 91/92 model or so R32 or 180 or ?? - I think its actually safer. Least I know its less likely to have been just used for sillyness over in Japan and with the current rules it has to be stock anyhow. Shall have to think about that too.

Funky: I saw a few GTS4's and 32's - but i wasn't seeing too many 89 models?? They seem to be fairly rare?? Under $10k landed sounded pretty good.. but if i had to budget a respray and engine rebuild those costs could blow out a bit further than I'd want.

homeowners grant is currently $7k and you have to live in the house, yep - but thats my plan.. then i can rent it out bit later if i want to move.

Nah Matt, I am talking 5k for new home owners and 3k for brand new house :) there is no 7k grant in Vic anymore...

ps. I also know about R.E.

edit, there is no $7k anymore...My brother only got $5k last month

/end off topic

out of respect for this thread I deleted other off topic posts of mine :P

i would rather have something modified.... ur a tool if u think that nothing silly has been done in it because its not midified... i woudl rather have something with aftermarket parts which are designed for more punishment than the stock parts.

HUDs are a waste of time... farkn only useful at night... I hardly ever used my HUD, altho at one point I was tempted to replace it with an LCD panel so I could watch TV while driving...

/me notes down this idea :D

i prefer to do all my driving at night actually.. Yes, sounds like a bit of a gimick but you know :)

They're trying to bring them back in some of the new cars coming out...one day in the distant future Holden will stick one in one of their cars and everybody will go "oooo - how advanced"

    • Hi soviet_merlin, We appreciate your concern regarding this possibly being some sort of PR/Political hype, I assure you that is not the case, I wish we could claim something like that, but in this case, we merely reached out for comment on the basis of the outrage we too felt, as those heavily in the automotive industry. Ps. the original source in the social media post is CarExpert not CarExplore.    Best, CE.
    • Made a bit of a discovery, but while I was cruising, I randomly decided to test to see if it worked and it showed up on my IC7. The entire time I tested it before, I never thought to turn the ignition on. I only tested it with head lights turned on but with the ignition off. Huge oversight on my end. I’m a dummy. I know. 
    • G'day all, I have drilled and tapped the hole for the relocation of the timing belt tensioner. That was straight forward. I'm unsure if I need to also put another hole for the smaller stud that the spring behind the tensioner catches on (this is how it seems to work in its original spot). Or do you not use the spring behind it and just torque it down? Thanks in advance, I did a search but couldn't find anything related and it doesn't mention it in the rb30det sau guide.
    • Hi All,  just thought I would provide an update as I know smooth (Matt) was on this forum from 2003.    my brother Matthew passed away end of may 2024 at the age of 41 from liver failure. I am not sure how many of his original team krazy friends are still on here or active but thought it reasonable to let the forum know.    if you have any photos or pictures it would be great if you could share them.    it took me a while to work out he was active on here.    thanks so much
