Hope you guys aren't being serious

Just because you lodge a tax return doesn't mean your automatically entitled to a refund

For your average John Doe your refund is more dependant on your employer rather than the Tax Office or Accountant

got my best return in years this year. :cheers:

Do they?

What sort of interest rates do they offer?

Normally they offer absurdly low interest rates (losing money) but then they don't discount the vehicle as much to make up for it

Just had a snoop on their website and the financing link is a dead end. they do their own insurance as well...

Anyone got some good tips for bleeding an empty clutch line?

Lol I definately need to do mine as well...

At DECA I could hardly get it into gears once it was really hot because the clutch wasn't fully disengaging... Dat crunch

When I was in 1st with my clutch pushing hard against the floor, if I revved at all it would creep forward :/

Their own = Outsourced to a supplier of credit / insurance with a slightly better rate for kickbacks?

Bleed it first, if that don't fix it, it could be the pedal position screw on the master cylinder needs adjusting.

generally they wont negotiate one dollar on purchase price when they advertise super low interest rates, i know honda while ago had a deal on finance but it was a 50% up front payment like if you go 50% of the cars value available to you pretty sure 3% finance isnt that important.

also my mates got bmw full circle so you get a guaranteed amount for the car in 3 years or whatever but you gotta to less then a set amount of kms per year and dealer service etc. always a catch.

No mods to fit and will give the power I am shooting for

fair deal. kits you need for an e9 framed turbz don't seem to be too dear, but if you don't need them for your goals, no point. when does the stock 7 turbz start to struggle though? i thought it could make 220-230 or so...?

Empty line needs a bit work work though :(

Car day at yours Simon?

Yeah, maybe Saturday or Sunday?

Can grab a steam cleaner for a few hours as well and give the seats a good going over :) Clean off the happy stains

    • You all are absolute legends! Thank you for helping me put this into context with your comparisons!
    • There's probably an underlying issue with the A/C system too. I recently fixed mine, now it's fully control by the Haltech and car's factory HVAC controller  Have a squiz here:    
    • And by the way, I've also checked the ECU diagnostic numerous times and got a bad O2 sensor code and initially an Ignition Primary code, which is why I replaced the O2 sensor and all the ignition components (coil packa, plug and loom). No codes have been coming up lately despite the ongoing issue.
    • Hey pber13, unfortunately still no luck. At this point the following has been done with little or no success: - Spark plugs replaced, gapped to 0.8mm - Splitfire coilpacks installed to replace originals - Replaced Ignition Coil/Coilpack harness with a new genuine nissan one - New fuel filter - Replaced AFM/MAF sensor - Injectors have been thoroughly cleaned with an online flush (without removing) - Upper engine and inlet decarbed - blew tons of black smoke out, cleared the carbon deposits from the top of the engine and exhaust.  - IACV removed and thoroughly cleaned with carburettor cleaner - O2 sensor replaced with new and genuine one -  Smoke test revealed no vacuum leaks - Healthy compression test of 160psi across all 6 cylinders Overall the car does run a lot smoother now, no backfires between gear shifts like it did originally... but the rough idle when warmed up is still there. It may not even be a misfire but simply a rough idle. Seems crazy to me that so many people have had this issue and seemingly no one has gotten to the bottom of it, or at least never bothered to post if they did! Hope you have more luck than I did pber13, I'm at a point now where I'm just going to try to ignore it unless it gets worse. Would love to fix it but I've genuinely run out of ideas of what it could be.
    • I got the full frenchys kit too. Really awesome kit. Easy to install my only complaint was the hardlines I think could be routed differently (I modified mine) but I realise the kit needs to suit multiple applications. This was the hard lines before I modified them. They were touching the wastegate pipe. I ended up reducing the distance between firewall and first bend. The made it so they tucked along the frame rail.
