  1. mate ralyrt do you even work in this field? do you even know your stuff?

    GO TO A WRECKER AND LOOK IT UP, no sh!t it would be 7-8000 for new parts price.

    i see you also dont judge the possibilities of buying damaged used cars from auctions look at the state of that car how much damage? my guess is it will sell for 10k, now you strip that smashed car up and you sell it piece by piece and now i ask... did you buy it close to nothing? how do you reckon wreckers earn a living, even if they buy that car for 10k they earn double it back by selling it in separated parts. Mate think before you speak.

    my wrecker says i can get a set of airbags in for 1400 in melbourne. but thats a secret ^^ (*sorry tricks of the trade*)

  2. its all fixable ^^

    airbags you can get from a wrecked for 1400 a set, front panels probably 100 bux each max.

    headlights will be your biggest problems, untensioned seatbelts maybe another problem, shifts in your front chassis around the suspension area prob your biggest fear. but i dont think it would cost you more then 4000 to put it back on the road (that includes paint). So if you get a new one from your insurance, see if you can keep the old one and rebuild it and sell it CHA CHING!!!! :lol: either way its going to get auctioned off too a wrecker for nearly nothing.

    wreckers are your friends :rolleyes:

  3. As to the performance NO COMMENT,

    however i would like to point out "again" that it all varies dramatically from each car to the weather of each state, whats good in brisbane's hot weather may not be good for melbournes 4 seasons. I guess what everyone is trying to say is that CES is only realevant to brisbane. or the "upper half of the australian continent". I mean i have heard a stivo with only a different panel filter and different engine oil pull similar kilowatts to you brisbane boys and it all happened down here in melbourne, like i said... too many factors...

    And to the person who made this topic congratulations on your purchase and have fun :lol:

  4. should raise the speed limit -_- the government is just covering its own *****, from activists. Now if you hit some1 u get sued more for bruising them, where as if you kill them... they stay quiet :lol:

    just kidding

    nahh i think the speedlimits are fine as they are, but i think its stupid to place 40km' skool zones on a highway/freeway. seriously... build an overpath, doesnt cost as much as a 1 million dollar camera. Your zooming at 80 - 100 km/hr and then you see a flashing light "40" doesnt that just make your day sweeter. :rolleyes:

  5. clips? :blink:

    (im assuming fronts?)

    mines a twist lock

    twist the parker unit and tug on the wires gently to squeeze it out.

    when putting it back in, it will take a miracle ....

    the driver side is so clustered up it was lucky i got it in.

    I dont think there is any easier way to do this unless you take the whole headlights out of its hole.

  6. anyone know where i can buy a claybar? or clay as it is commonly known?

    i cant find it at supercheap, probably not sure if it will show up at autobarn either.

    Aparently some dude in melb from another forum does wonders with this clay stuff for your clearcoat :lol:
