    that sux champ

    hope you bought it for peanuts cause its gonna cost some coin if you don't DIY

    mine has nearly hit 185kms and so far so good

    can't argue if thats what your local specialist said, but i know if that were my car i'd be leaving it in the garage until it was sorted

    good luck

    Yeah, I got it pretty cheap, even with the $1500 dollar quote to fix it all it's still cheaper than most advertised.

    I try to drive as little as possible, and never really rev it, especially on those start ups.

    Thanks mate, I'm contemplating dropping it a bit more, I'll have to see.

    I would never get a commodore, ever. They are basically the only car I see on the road in Newcastle.

    I'd drive a f650, does that count as a minitruck? :p

    Bled the brake system today.

    100% increase in stopping power and brake pedal feel. Managed to stop from 60km/h to 0 in a little more than 2 metres.
