hahah going to go all out once its passed?

you'll have to try and jump on one of our track days

[Ryanrb25]

yea well i dont really see me getting enough money for it to warrent selling it, so might as well keep it, concerntrating mainly on handling first and keeping more of a responsive/torquey setup instead of the rubber band sling shot power curve i had previous. Awesome for the thrill, but no good for hills or track for obvious reasons.......long story short...if no one buys it....yes! hehe

[Ryanrb25]

Plus i dont see those rims fitting on anything else so yea...ill keep it for the rims sake. hehe

[Madaz]

yeah i was in the same boat

spent to much on buy price 5 years ago so might as well keep going

though when i do get to drive it, it is fun just over the last 15 months its seem more driveway than freeway

i tell you what as well the driving nature of SA has changed so much what we used to do in the old days cant be done now

been through regency 8 times since ive owned mine... never had child restraints in, never been picked on for it...

last time it was in primer, with stencils sprayed over it in matte black, pop rivets in rear guards to seal holes left over from widebody, 50mm flares over the flared rear arches, interior half stripped, 3.5" straight through with a 1" pea shooter pipe and muffler rudely bolted on at the end, shit hidden everywhere and got picked on for locked diff and a couple lights not working.

was so hillarious they got 4 guys to look at it at the same time and spent a whole hour on it. went through the next day with diff changed, no lights fixed... and passed.

win.

people get shit scared of regency for no reason...

[Madaz]

but your a regency whore

I've been through (for defects) 15 times in 3 different cars.

It's really hard to say what they will and wont get you for as everytime it's been different. Very inconsistant with what they check and don't check or in some cases, can even find.

But SkyHi_33 is right, there's no reason to be scared. It's pretty easy to pass.

[D_Stirls]

never been, but not scared.

Prefer not to have to bother but not to much stress if i ever have too.

[mid life crisis]

never been thru in 5 yrs of owning my car hopefully the next 5yrs will be as good . only ever had probs with regency when i built my ac cobra replica they wanted me to hook up a charcoal canister to a straight LPG powered car.took 5 months to convince them it couldn't be done .

lol so they made me apply for a exemption . made me run a air pump of a late model mustang just lots of stupid crap like that and this is after the engineer signed the car off lol .

[SkyHi_33]

but your a regency whore

loves it.

haha

[Ryanrb25]

lol im not scared...

I've put 3 trucks through regency now..they know me by name.....the skyline is a walk in the park as opposed to getting a truck through....was very much a head fuuk to say the least. Not to mention it was about 20k-30k for one truck...The skyline is just a couple of hundred bucks.

Lee, So sorry mate i've been soo flat out with work you wouldn't believe. Will be in touch.
