Hey guys, just wondering for a bit of advice.

Just got approved for a 20k secured loan threw my bank (westpac) but secured means i cant buy anything like skylines or silvias or what eva :S

Purchase or refinance a used car (excludes imported second hand motor vehicles which are not imported to Australia by the manufacturer. A valuation must be available through Redbook.com.au).

it says ^^ on westpac site.

so that means i cant buy anything imported? so... no skylines no 300zx's no silvias. all the cars i like :D

a what? please explain lol.

He means, what if you wanna buy a Skyline but and its already in AUS, already at a Australian Import Dealer... Will the bank give you the OK?

Instead of importing one in from Japan yourself.

Maybe this part of the first post will answer the question.

Why not see if you can find an Australian delivered R32 GT-R? That would comply with the rules. You could get an Aussie S14 or S15 for that money, if you want a Silvia (I wouldn't spend $20K on an S13).

Your other option is to go Euro. I found a 2000 model 323Ci for $20K. It won't have the balls of a Japanese turbo, and its a slusho, but it'll have the right handling dynamics and be less of a cop magnet. If you do get a 3 Series, for god's sake get a 6 cylinder at least.

There are some Z3s going around for that price too, but those things handled like poo.

Why would you get a 20k loan for a car, when you dont know what kind of car you want? Wouldn't it have been easier to pick the car you want, then got the exact money that you needed for it and used a bank that would give you the money for the car that you wanted?

      Rebuilt Rb25det issues

      I don’t really have any ideas how to set the timing on the CAS 😂, sounds like the top, sounds like it maybe misfiring as well as ticking,  got the box sorted 😌, must of been a air bubble on the clutch side

      Rebuilt Rb25det issues

      Use a 2' length of hose (that's 2 foot, not 2 inches) as a stethoscope to localise the source of the ticking. From cam covers? From exhaust or turbo manifold gasket? From injectors? From lower down in the engine? Etc. Use a timing light to set the timing. Put Redline Lightweight Shockproof in the box. It's not the very best thing for the box, but it will take a box that refuses to engage a gear with other oil, and make it engage a gear. I had to put it in when I installed the R33 box I have in my car. It would not select ANY gear when running. Smurf jizz made it work. That was >10 years ago and I still use it. I'm stuck with it now. Failing that - rebuild the box.

      Well done Duncan. The fuel tank bulkhead lid is also in great condition (some of mine were stuffed). These are now out of production and good ones like that are becoming hard to come by.
