90's mustangs (which are nuggets :banana: ) can be had for cheap as over there!!

When I was there a couple weeks back, on La Brea Ave - from bascially a few km's out of LAX to Hollywood, I lost count how many used car dealerships there are!!

and thats just that road....used car market is MASSSSIVE there!

im sure you'll have no drama's getting a good car :D

Due to work, I may be getting shipped off to LA for a couple of years. While I'm out here for this trip I figured I would go and do a little browsing over the car market to see what I may end up buying if I end up out here long term. (Don't worry Steve. GTR ain't going up for sale).

Pheeew!

Would be a shame to see it go :blink:

Id go a Caddy :D

you gotta get something you can't get anywhere else.

the bonus is you get to bring it back to australia for $3k and no taxes and maybe make a profit.

You're in LA, always sunny, always parking, valet outside every restaurant, so get this for $15k:

Surely you would go buy a Corvette, LS6 or lower perhaps..

That or a saleen or other musty.

Buy a house too because the market is piss week some people are selling up for $1000!

Everyone is broke so make sure you take them for all they are worth haha

over there, a hearse looks different. You haven't seen six feet under?

well over here.........it looks like a HEARSE!

no i havent seen 6 feet under

yeah i agree with you on that one.

the most sensible thing is to just forget about WASTING money on a car...

buy one to get you from A - B...

save up to buy a property... yeah ive read an article on how cheap properties are in USA at the moment.

and plus you'd probably never would be able to own a house in australia, like many young generations here.

oh well

the choice is yours

well the way i look at it.....ur wrong

the Miata IS, the MX5 with a different name

and in japan apparently its called "Roadster"..its only called mx5 in aust

just like the Toyota Yaris.........its still called "Echo" in some countries...

and "Vitz" in various others......

and in north america its called "Belta" and asian countries "Vios"

Agreed, they're all facts, apart from the mx5 only in Aust bit. I also apologise for the confusion my sarcasm has caused.

They look good in pics......but after driving one i can definatly say you'll regret buying it after having the r32

Got recent pics of R32?

I wish I had some. I had the car all washed before I left AU and forgot. When I get back I may get a professional spread done (need a poster for my wall :D )

Mustangs are everywhere in cali. After a month you will be sick of seeing them. They're like seeing a ford falcon in sydney.

I went and visited the Turbonetics factory in Simi Valley and one of the dudes wanted to trade me his mustang for an R32.

    • Thanks for that.... If only I could do something once and be happy with that, like some people do....
    • I had no transmission at all so I managed to find a big box manual gearbox from an R34 GTT for an insanely good price in EU. I converted it to push type which cost more than the transmission almost, with parts from Amayama! These engines are very strong and can put out decent power with a properly sized turbo. You can save on money from parts like pistons and rods, and invest those in the transmission and other parts. I suggest you join the RB20 Enthusiasts facebook group, plenty of info and almost daily posts there about 20DE/DET/Neo+T builds. (I hope I'm not breaking any forum rules by mentioning third party platforms, just trying to help the buddy out)
    • Yeah, having tried all of those methods including BBQ+recipro/hacksaw, I ended up buying a bush press kit under $150 that works well, like this: https://www.ebay.com.au/itm/355967727167?mkcid=16&mkevt=1&mkrid=705-154756-20017-0&ssspo=sfmmuhxgqhm&sssrc=2047675&ssuid=dJvnaZ11TB-&widget_ver=artemis&media=COPY It basically has a range of pushers and cups with threaded rods between to press out a range of large bushes. The problem with any sawing solution is minimising damage to the subframe side, although it probably needs a quick sand afterwards no matter what solution you try due to damage
    • Hi. Thanks for the answer. I do not have instagram 😄 I too considering turbo the RB20DE NEO 🙂 But i think i upgrade the gearbox first or at least buy new.  
    • Just pulled the passenger apart so got a good idea, also the side bracket that pivots the top half is completely cooked.. how I don’t know.. haha and paid $400 also included a photo of the passenger seat! She is mint
