YAYAYAYAY i got home after work to find the Staz sitting in the driveway much to my delight. I went for a drive (straight to the petrol station) and OMG its soooo weird to drive after the XR for 3 weeks. The whole thing felt different, especially the height and the clutch. Still pulls like a rocket, but needs to blow the cob webs out a bit.

My current plan for her: fix it up the way i intended to, get it tuned and goin hard, get a few laps in and then i'll look at selling her. Before you all bag me out for doing it let me finish...
I now have two money pits, however the Starion money pitt will always need more to try and fill it. It also means 2 x rego, 2 x fuel, 2 x tyres etc and i now owe 40k on a car, and if i sell that now i'll be well out of pocket. I figure whatever i get from the staz will go on my loan and save me a shite load in interest, and cut a few years off the loan.

Plus whoever gets the car will be a very happy man/woman, as she will be running sweet and be lots of fun. Dunno when yet, nor do i know how much. Good thing is everyone here knows the history of this car so there's nothing to hide. :D

More on this matter later.

Back to my glowing turbo... :o

Not too bad, still it's 200 bucks to try and prevent damage, not cause it!!
I'm in the process of making a claim to them at the moment.

Steve.

They don't make bra's like they used to :( Maybe you should try Elle Macferson intimates :D

Yeah, I'd be asking them to pay too. Would've been cheaper to contact up the front of the car and peel it off when you got to Perth. :)

mm, do car bra's have a speed rating?

Well if they do it's not written on the packet!

I am getting some quotes sent to me so will see how much it'll be worth.
