  1. if it doesnt swing back....how do u get it back and change gear's and keep your rev's??.....

    if they have done the hydrolics thats part of the adjustment (thats what they told me), but i have never had this problem YET *touch wood*.

    im thinking new clutch... but if u have a mechanic they will no what to do and try ever thing before they say new clutch

    :D

    good luck with it.. let us all no the out come

    cheers,

  2. sweet for sure man :D

    um u are talking about amp locations...um there is a link in my sig below to my install..it required alot of work the best place and im thinking about changing mine is the back of the seat but i wuld make a new frame so its not directly on the seat just looks like it.... it u get my drift.

    if u are going full stealth mode check out "CjRasmu" in member rides, or if u are going for show looks i would do something like "MR and MSROLA" ride... i love it and would so do it myself but i need the boot room lol.

    anyway yer there are alot of thing u can do

    :D

  3. Yeah..... if you ever have problems with bunny hopping or hill starts, just dial in around 5,000rpm and release the clutch as quickly as possible. Problems solved :)

    haha so true :D

    ----------------

    um all i can think of is just find a very quiet street, or big car park(most footy ovals have big parking lots ..grass but not the point) and just try and u will learn in no time.

    dw if u are crap at it, everyone (most) people are. nows its just normal .... i hate driving auto's i put my hand on the gear selector and push my front (left) on the floor but there is no clutch haha

    learn Manual u wont regret it

    :D

  5. you learn to drive after your first accident (minor or major)

    However, in saying that, some people never know.

    Mikey, i reckon you should drive the rolla around as your first car. why?

    1. its safe - has at least 1 airbag, pretensioner seatbelts, high seating position and great visibility.

    2. if you crash it, its easy to fix (if you want) - my car is proof of this.

    3. insurance wont be too much, probably better than if you had something old and rusty with a big engine.

    4. its a cool car! :P

    yer i agree...Mikey ... why cant u drive the rolla?? im sure if u got an old car u would get the ****s cause your too use to the rolla and end up drive it anyway.

    :D

  6. The 3cl charade is a 997cc engine. My girlfriend bought a Suzuki swift to learn in for $2000 with the same engine and it's a great little car. Runs off an oily rag, easy to park and steer despite no power steering, very difficult to get into trouble with because it struggles to go much faster then 120 km/h, easy to fix if things break and parts are pretty cheap too.

    thats correct i WAS paying like 20 to 30 $ a week in fuel to and from work lol so great that way.... this is mine ->

    p.s it under my dads name.

  7. I could not disagree more. To me the first car should be a complete throwaway. It should serve 2 purposes: a.) if you stack it, it doesn't matter; and b.) if something (minor) breaks you should learn to pull it apart and put it back together yourself. If you're young and you drive with a bit of spirit, accidents will happen, and you'll just be shooting yourself in the foot by doing it in a car worth more than $1k.

    Buy a KE70 or an AE82 and just drive it into the ground, get some experience up :)

    im with this 99.9% the only problem is 1k thats a total bomb i think i would say 5 to 6K will get u a nice looking car, and that will do a great job...remember u will have it for a year or so, i would rather spend a lil more money and have a nicer looking car that wont brake all the time.

    i had and still have in my garage a 1993 Charade....no injectors and 3 cyl 1.3ltr engine, no power steering well no power anything lol..ok it was slow but it did the job...i learnt how to drive a real car without all these power acc's, tune to engine and fixed most problems that came up. it looked nice not like a bomb lol just cause u are on your p's doesnt mean u have to drive a bomb that look like a bomb.

    :D

  8. u still have a year on your L's right ??

    dont get a head of yourself...just dont worry about it till about 2 months before you get your p's ....but that doesnt mean dont save your money.

    i say this cause i was the same...looking at car sale websites and being like i want ...thats nice i want that one two lol.

    just sit on it. trust me, i did it and it workied for me(your worrying yourself for nothing)...SAVE YOUR MONEY !!!!

    im still on my green p's only just got off my red's i still have the car i learnt to drive in.

    :D

  9. i would then suggest with larger rims drive with your needle just under the limits.

    so just under 60 or 80 etc.

    cameras dont snap 60 or 80 on the dot.

    yer true.

    thanks for the replys mate

  10. 9 mm thats nothing really but 3 % is.... so when u read 100 on your speed your cars really doing 103 ?? or is it 97 ??

    does anyone no if u can get 18's with tyres and stay the same as the stock stivo rim / tyres.

    thanks
