At 17 i had a job with a great company, a bloody nice $4000 nissan exa and thousands saved in the bank......no help from family........you have no excuses :) This has been a community safety message brought to you by Andrew.........

oh and just for bragging rights.......... At 18 I had an beautiful modified R33 Skyline paid for fully in cash by me, bar $2000 my parents loaned me temporarily...... That is all....

*wanders off to admire self in mirror for hours.......

congratulations, wanna cookie?

if only there were more Andrew Doyle's, the world would be so much simpler...

What is your obsession with posting up my last name on these forums? I've told you before to stop fu**ing doing it!

Jayce: Still can't figure out if you're taking the piss on that one, so in the words of principal Skinner "I choose to take that literally".

No;not taking the piss-just stating that there should be more driven,motivated people in the world that don't want a free ride on others coat tails. It'd be soooo much easier that where the World is at right now!

when i was 16 i bought my first car, a POS kingswood V8, sounded cool but had no go. only cost me $1000. you can get cheaper cars than that around. my gf's first car cost her $25 and 2 vegemite sandwiches. it lasted all of 6 months but it was a great first car

    • I’d love to find some where that can recover the dashes to look brand new and original. Mine has a very slight bubble, nothing compared to some I’ve seen though 
    • $170K. I asked one of the guys there as a joke if that price was just for the passenger seat as it was where the price sheet was... he tried really hard to crack a smile 😄 He also mentioned that every single part of the car was inspected and either restored or replaced with a new or as new part, or made from scratch. The interior was incredible, every inch like a new car.
    • Time for a modernisation, throw out the AFM, stock O2s, ECU into the e-waste bin. Rip out the cable throttle, IACV, pedal, etc. into the scrap metal bin. DBW, e-throttle, modern ECU, CANbus wideband, and the thing will drive better than when it left the factory.
    • I agree, don't go trusting those trims. As I said, first step is to put the logger away, and do the basics in diagnosis.   I spend plenty of time with data loggers. I also spend plenty of time teaching "technicians" why they need to stop using their data loggers, and learn real diagnostics.   The amount of data logs I play with would probably blow most people away. I don't just use it to diagnose. I log raw CAN data too, as a nice chunk of my job is reverse engineering what automotive manufacturers are doing.
    • I'm aware, but unless you're actually seeing the voltage the ECU is seeing and you're able to verify the sensors are actually working I find it hard to just trust STFT/LTFT. I will say, logging the ECU comes naturally to me because it's one of the lowest effort methods of diagnosis and I do similar things in my day job all the time. Staring at 20+ charts looking for something that isn't quite right isn't for everyone. NDS1 allows you to log almost everything so that's normally what I do and then sort out the data later.
