Inake for Ca18det

Not my intension, but unfortunately a fact all-around, thats one of the reasons why I don't have one, the maintenance is high.

i reckon performance parts are expensive, but not more so than for a honda or a toyota or whatever!!!

the nissan genuine OEM parts are more costly, but once the thing is reliable again, i dont think its that expensive. *kicks murphy in the gonads* once you get it running reliably, then its merely a matter of regular maintenance.

these days people are willing to easily spend 10's of thousands on maintenance plans.

Before I got my intercooler from Vlade, I got a quote from Nissan for a new one.... R12500 😮

ok i retract my statement... performance parts - in relation to nissan messed up ideas about the value of parts - are cheap!

Hehe, far more accurate VeeCee 🙂

Ja I'm beginning to struggle a bit to run my car day to day to be honest 🙁

So did I, thats why I'm doing it right this time, well with some added benifits as well 😀

Added benefits? Oh you must be reffering to the SR20DET conversion you're doing!!!!! You lucky bastard 😂

yeah warren...

these are old cars, and they do require some money to get them back to a actually reliable state of being!

i think i've spent at least an extra 15 grand on top of the original cost to get it to where it is now!!!

but i hardly ever have trouble anymore *farts in murphy's general direction again!* and i now know the car inside out!!! so any work needed to be done can generally be done in my garage!

Ja I'm kinda just holding on to it hoping nothing really serious *read expensive* breaks until i have cash 2 fix it. I downloaded the workshop manual to check things out, but was frightened by 850 pages! 🙂 I'd do work myself but don't have a bleddy clue what I'm doing! But I'll sort it out one day!

And veecee, you've kicked murphy in the nuts and farted on him, u gonna make him mad! 😮

i laugh in the face of murphy!!!

*pisses in murphy's porridge*

Shh he will hear u and come take it out on me.
I have nearly earned my degree in advanced Murphy foiling techniques I have had so much fun with him.

HeHeHE 😂 Actually keep it up, maybe he'll get off my back and onto yours! 😀

Murphey sees and hears everything, he is going to catch you.

i used to say the same thing about the metro police!!!!
