I have owned this car for just on 12 months now and have been very mechanically sympathetic. It's a very regretful sale as it's a great little car (cheap to insure too - not being a turbo ;)), but I'm selling it so I can afford to do more *gasp* sensible things with my money (to save for a house) ;).

Price: $28 000neg

* May consider another car as part payment.

Any interest in a '98 GTS-t as a trade in?

since when was owning a skyline a sensible thing to do with your money edo? :DDD

[edo]

Its seats 4 so it is therefore more sensible.

[daz]

Nah thanx edo..... If I wanted another car of similar value I'd definitely keep the '5 ;).

Cheers

Bah, your taste is up your arse Daz :D

Jokes :)

[daz]

Bah Up yer bum!

Hey Daz,

TOYOTA COROLLA 1974, 2 door coupe, Mint Green, 5k motor rebuild and worked 4mths ago, all suspension lowered and new, 15in alloy mags, pacemaker extractors, 2in exhaust, 5spd, manual, b/seats, sports s/wheel, Alpine splits, Amp & Canton 8in woofers, Sony head unit, spare 3K working motor & more, ono -$1800

:D

[daz]

Hmmmm.... ;)

[Revhead]

Mate that's alright, a $5k motor rebuild plus spare $3k motor, all for $1800 ono :D lol

My brother used to drive around in a KE55 rolla with a 3K and 3 speed auto... it was a weapon!! Well, it was with him behind the wheel anyway :)

[demuire]

$5k motor rebuild plus spare $3k motor, all for $1800 ono

Hahaa... No that's a "5K" motor and a "3K" motor :) 5K being the 1.5L version (liteace? hiace? can't remember what it's out of) and 3K being the original 1.2L version.

[Revhead]

Hehe I know, hence the " :D lol " at the end :cool:

3K is a beast, I don't know how much power it made, but the one in the KE55 my brother used to drive wouldn't pull the skin off of custard, probably had 30hp or something, lmao :p

[demuire]

Hehee... yeah I know, I have a KE55 :) Oh yeah, the KE55 has the 4K (bigger 1.3L engine)...

[Revhead]

Lol my mum has a KE70 with the 4K and 4 cogger in it. It's really slow... and we have the timecards to prove it :D 20.4 was the best run!

I went to merge onto the highway one time, giving it pretty much all it had, just trying to get up to the speed limit. Had absolutely peaked out second, and was nearing the top of third - looked ahead and spotted a speed camera. Checked the speedo... bah, still not over 100, so just kept the foot buried past him :D Ended up going past at about 95, with the poor little thing screaming its lungs out... lmao Pity about all the bloody Winnie the Pooh stickers all over the place, that car is soooo :gay: :p

[daz]

You wish you had a '5 to start with Turbo boy! ;)

BTW: who did the 11.38 on your bike?

[Revhead]

Actually it was some other guy who looked exactly like me (poor bugger)... 60' time was 2.218 sec, who else could launch that badly? :D

Going out to the drags again tomorrow night... coming?

[daz]

In all honesty, if I'm I'm not working back, then sure. I'll give you a buzz (got your message on the w/end - just haven't gotten around to returning your call ;).

And don't tell me there's another poor sould that looks like you running around??? ;p
