Many years ago, a close M8 of mine started out with a Daihatsu Charade turbo. Brand new +800 bucks worth of wheels and tyres.
He owed 11 and a half large on it when he traded it on a frikken XC falcodore auto on the column. (Go figger this)
Lets just say a couple of years and a couple of backwards car trades down the track and and ended up with an old rusty Esky Panelvan with a blown motor and he still owed 8 and a half large from the original Charade loan.......................
He eventually learned from those mistakes!
You will learn from yours as most of the battle is owning up to them in the first place.
Keep going.

Look into importing from Japan. A mate of mine up here did, had to convert to RHD (cheap 318i donor works wonders), and all up cost him about 15K. Not bad for one of these beautiful creations.Panda_ET wrote:since I cant afford and probably never wil afford an E30 M3 Evolution
EDIT: Sorry for going O.T.
all comments and suggestion welcome
im willing to hear anything never know what ill learn or ignore
after receving a message from ryan et i got a massive boost of insparation
so i went out in the cold and darkness worked by fluro
the electric drill made thing easy
while takin this photo i noticed a stain next to the cabin light didnt know it was there even tho id worked on the light b4
not sure what im going to do about it,was doin some planing last week and the roof didnt comin to it ,thought it was ok
can get a good roof lining of an et, but just a quick look and i dont think the rear will match coz of the window shape of the side windows
SUGGESTIONS?
i ll probly leave it for now even tho i dont want to
was surprised how quick things came out ( know itll take longer to put back together)
only downer here was i broke a few of thoses plastic clips that hold the plastic interior parts in
removing air con was easy to i should have done it long time ago as id started intercooler mods awhile ago and had already removed most of ithe parts was just to scared to touch the dash
i had to move the fuel filter to get at some parts of the air con,
that part would have been easier if the engine was out
there wasnt much dirt under the carpet .ill tin the old carpet
new black carpet is only$150
not much left there wwwwwwhhhhhhhoooooo
coming along nicely in my books
the old mans 505 turbo also runs on canola oil
piece of shit im my books
has potential but itll never see it while my dads the owner
and the combi rust repair on window spray
window fitment
buff
sell
SCAM THAT SPOT IN DA GARAGE
going to miss the combi, it will always have that holiday smell from the interior, and my old seat that was made out of wood by my grand father
to fit in between the two front seats childhood memories fading
i think ill go the panda look for this exa
was going to go baby blue with pin stripes
but the black and white thing is easy for me to do
was also going to use n13 exa seats but changing mind on that all the time lately
when first starting to mod the pulsars i just wanted to see how many parts i could make fit from other models
do yous think its a good one? just asking
and what do youz think about using n13 exa arm rests
didnt get around to tryin that?
THANK FOR THE COMMENTS
ONE KILLA N12 COMING SOON

dreams crushed
had dreams of doing the rwd conversion but was told my $20000 would go on just that so thats gonna have to wait ten years or so
mabe later i can do the work but for sure not now
also seriously thinking of going to tafe to learn car stuff
and i hate school
want to do as much work on this as i can
i dont really feel proud saying
i paid someone to do it
im going to arrange to get work experience in a tyre fitter
so that when the time comes i can select, fit, balance the tyres and do suspension ajustments myself
havent even planned on mag selection dont care at all and never really did
as long as i had something that was wider that stock i was happy
currently on 15'' aus car rims i got from FARK nissanexa.com
