Welcome to call talk Sunday, Kickback, and isolation with Scott Adrian. And The Grassman himself out on.
What's Happening, guys? Max man, nice to be here.
What's going on? Not much Adrian.
You doing Happy Easter to you all YouTube.
Hopefully you guys ate a lot like I did today.
Yeah. What did you eat?
Not as much as usual. No way Nia because of this
isolation stuff but it wasn't too bad just had a few things around the house when mrs. Cook some stuff, see it all
Scully would kill with you today.
Just plenty of chocolate. And Adrian.
Just a lock and put it just a lot went into a coma for most of the day. It was like one of those snakes
that eats like a big bird. Yeah.
That's that was me. What would you rather do a few
other things as well? How's everything going?
You got the charger there in the background?
Yeah, yeah. Good man.
I drove it for this craziness. Hit the fan.
So good. Otherwise the bonnets up.
I don't know why I remember why I opened it.
I think I'll stuff around the car, but it's all good man.
It's all good, all running well, but it's hibernating for now.
Nice of you, we are joined by Alum.
What's up? - what's going on?
I'm glad to finish off the game. OverWatch if I knew you were
going to be liable to put on a strip.
The certainly undershirt right now.
Pull your breakfast. I underwear, too.
You got more excited. I'll be speaking with Adam
there. In regards to you being rich or
something, or nice weight. And I think I was just mucking
around. I don't know what I was doing.
I can't remember but it's been a lot of nothing happening so it makes him mind go too much. Yeah.
How's it been driving has been driving world since the last time you drove it. Yeah, it's been good.
Whatever is nothing really. Nothing at all.
Awesome. So it's been happy in the exile.
Exhaust weights, I am. I ended up changing one of the
rubbers because, you know, what's on gas?
Yeah, it's out of gas now, finished it.
So I pulled out the intake clean, the throttle body, clean the idle control and replace the rubber that goes between the intake piping and the actual total body because it was cracked was old, had a vacuum leak, and it was running shit when it was cold, change that it's happy.
Yeah. So that's cool.
You'd be surprised what I am. What I like.
I like a like a, like, an air hose leak or something does to a car. Yeah, huge difference.
Massive difference in 12.4. A hundred, which is pretty good,
I reckon. But anyway, Hello, how are you
doing with car base with you? Yeah, I'm doing.
All right, and there's anything, flashy happening.
I did go for another ride to get some groceries, as you always do, and just a little warm up a little bit.
And then, on the way back, clean out the pipes, as I say, all the cobwebs, you know, but you haven't gone up anything exciting. Unfortunately, what about you
Scott? Well, I had the 31 which I said
last week, I cleaned it up and everything and Polished it came up pretty good. Then I gave the Subaru of wash
and noticed, it had heaps of like swirl marks in it.
Okay. So when you get in the sunlight
because it's like a metallic paint, I can see all the sea swirl marks and stuff through it look like trash.
So I had some of that McGuire's. Well Lex I gave that a whirl
came up mint and then I waxed finish it off.
Nice. So, I've got a bit of loving
Adriana's, nothing man, same shit, although this week's going to be different, Taking the car into a mechanics to get the bushes done. Yeah.
But yeah, that's really bad. It I can't say more than that.
Make some eye contact when you look at my dog kind of trying to see males. Can't do two things at once, and
I'm trying to do two things at once and it's not working.
He's taking the spot of Anthony used to play Pub G.
Yeah. When you and you do shit job
with the podcast. Fantastic job.
I swear. Well, moving on, really done
much with my cars already working on my sister's car over there over the past couple days. So I helped her out.
She's got a XT Forester as well but the previous shape to mine.
And so basically, I wired up a 3 gauge because we got to engage podcast for some reason. She wanted to gauge pod for
Christmas and we widen the like the all the three gauges.
Jurors, who are here because it because of hectic life actually came out pretty good, it's in there.
All nice, but then we noticed her car was a stunning great.
So, I checked the battery tested it, but you drop the soul.
So replace the battery as well. Now our cars running pretty
sweet and so I also put a new gear knob and genome, so, you know, boot in there for her and yeah, so it makes it look a bit more fresh. She's To be happy.
So yeah, that's pretty much what I've been doing with cars because we have really been able to get out what community you're chucking it, put in a boost gauge volt and a water temp because Subaru head gasket life. So just when you see wasn't
starting right, what was it doing?
Was it doing similar stuff for the ashtar like splattering when it's trying to start and have to tap the accelerator lie just like you're just like really slow crank like me.
Brings I mean it was just a lot like I could drive so the freeway and put into the battery and I like to start it against lecturer hasn't in case it was something like that and it was pretty much just dead. It was doing the same thing.
I'm like I'll battery test it but the tester on it and said he had a drop the soul so that was it.
It is what it is another battery and now it's not starting sweet again. Forget it.
Well actually, it was a gauge pod that was made for the car.
So it's it replaces the top bin and it's in there and you can wire it up all nice and easy. So, I just, I just typed in the
wires to the, to the back of their head unit.
So like off the constant and the ground and 12 volts and then the other wire was like foot specific for specific things.
Everything will they went into the water temp and And went into the material like a piece of vacuum line for the, for the TPS, on the boost gauge. So apart from that, it's pretty
basic stuff. Whirring gauges isn't really
hard, it's just a bit of a bit of fiddling around and but I'm apart of that pretty pretty much basic what it was.
I'm going to get you to teach me that stuff, wiring gauges and things. Yeah, it's um, well, I just kind
of laid by myself sir, how I did it because I want a few in now, was our kind of. Like when you get like, for
example, like the ones I put in her car with just SAS cages, which they work fine. They actually actually pretty
good. Yeah, they come with like, what,
why, what colored wise do what? And I'm like, okay, so if this
does this and I do, I kind of looked at my like where can I put it to? That's going to be near it and
the head unit was. So I was like, well, I can type
it into the into the wiring of the head, you know, my obviously, remember, What you call as well?
What for the head unit and up and like, even for illumination one colors for illumination as well.
So, when you turn your lights on, they are they turn on which which is, which is pretty cool. So yeah, so they all work
really, really well rush. You really happy with them.
So I'll just I'll take you to show you guys a picture.
Yeah, half not staying busy. Got a bit of an announcement for
the show a bit later towards the end of the show, but yeah.
Just trying to keep busy like that.
So tonight I thought we'd start off bringing back.
Some, what would you rather do? We haven't done that in a long
time. Now, Pete, you picture this,
you're back in your back in. 2006.
Okay. And you're in the money, you've
got money, but a whole building in your pocket and you wanting to buy and brand-new hot hatch. Yeah, your choices are as
follows. Golf GTI Mazda3 MPS.
Focus, XR 5, turbo McGann of one Astra.
Vxr Corolla sportivo. You've got those options then,
you know, the Crawlers. The only one is naturally,
aspirated the rest of Turbo, but they're all available.
They're all, they're all pretty much pretty top, suspect.
They will range from about 200 kilowatts below to about 140.
So they all kind of very in range, and but very similar in price. What would you go with and why?
He's going first, you can go first that if you like Xr5 orange, black leather interior sunroof 100% always wanted one on the wasn't listening. Can we go to the options again?
This is what makes you don't understand.
Is you see? I've got myself on mute and
unmute myself. I have to lean all the way on
the laptop and rather onto that. So I'd rather use the wireless
keyboard here. It's not shown up, but if I use
a wireless keyboard Wireless keybo, this is actually currently hooked up to my desktop, or my left, or my other laptop, which is Windows 10. So I am using its technology to
swap between, which one I'm using it on, like, you know, on the Fly and it's hard work. I've got an apple Mouse, I've
got a Logitech mouse, and it's a lot of work.
So I was doing that. All right, my head hurts.
Stop talking technology, your computer.
Guys, know this, I hate computers.
Don't talk to me about. Yes. well, let's just go over
the options again, so I can just get, you know, I just like them I'm going back to that day.
Going back then. Anyway I like them.
I like that combo and that combo always demanded more price-wise.
I don't care about the performance there, the grass little five songs. I mean that's the difference
between all of them. That's a 5 cylinder.
That's cool. Tyson turbo, that's pretty cool.
That's just my opinion. I like them.
Scotty. Yeah, I'm on the same.
I've always liked them. I've been looking at them
lately. There tunable they sound sweet.
I mean the seats are pretty good, the interior fairly class sticky but like, worth worth the price.
Now From what I've seen but yeah, I don't know, there's just something about them, but I really like yeah, he's like all those cars were based on budget, you know, like normal Focus.
Yeah, yeah. So in particular though, the
Plastics are like to focus and stuff like that, they weren't, they weren't that great but it was how they drove.
That's where the money and development went into, and I think the XL 5 turbo especially being the fieseler.
Like they sounded pretty damn cool to Adrian.
Sorry about that. That's right.
I've got enough Adrian. But that not good enough
Adrienne. Well, I had my mother walked
past. She's yelling at me again.
That's a tough one. I'm gonna say I'm gonna steer
away from xr5 and I'm going to go with them as the three, okay, why would you choose them as the three MPS because that out of all the cars, I don't want something reliable.
They're pretty reliable. That's really all I can say.
Yeah. Okay.
I do really like them. That's a good pick.
That's got the most power out of all of them or because like the the VX I had about 188, didn't they?
Adam. Yeah give or take HS V VX I
yeah, whatever I'm somewhat that 185, whatever.
You see the problem that you have with the VX eyes, a fact that it's made by Hold'em, that's unreliable.
It's not holding its GM but they actually pretty reliable.
That's the funny part. He told that actually reliable
cars if you treat them, right? You can thrash him, they'll
still be sweet, but you got to look after him.
That's what I've heard. Well, wasn't that mad sound
effects on known for really bad, talks T?
Yes. Yeah, I think Top Gear did
something on that and it was ridiculous, but that just shows how much bowls it had fair enough.
You have as much as the MPS but I think it had a lot of balls.
I I will agree earlier agree with that, like, after driving at Mazda 3 MPS, like we judge James on the show that thing would it would pull the steering wheel out of your hands light.
It was, you know, it was pretty violent.
I came on Boost and there and the fact of the matter is that had like, 100 newton meters more talk than pretty much anything on that list, which is pretty, pretty crazy.
Considering it's a, you know, it's only four cylinder, but I guess when it comes to the way it was tuned to come on pretty strong. I remember driving his when he
first got it and had an exhaust but it wasn't shown during and it's still it scared me like holy cow, this is a quick car.
Well, I think you even said the same thing out of when you drive it. The pool.
Yeah it was pretty ballsy. Didn't pull like a straight-6
Falcon but it proved. Oh I was thinking about you and
I'd probably go for the master like like he said he was pumping out, 190 kilowatts per so I believe in those models and that was you know for that there was kind of hard edges.
Quite a lot of the time these days not so much but still be like you know there. Overall look of the car as well.
I think I appreciated those a lot and I've also had a ride in James as 1 and here that talks. He talks to your kind of scare
you a bit but Sakai, you can have a lot of fun and I guess and just experience that, you know, hit backwards from the talk. The only negative is there's a
bit of a dip. Should I know who owns one?
I think we all know that we work which is there?
I can't, I can't hate cars based on, you know, their owners, but I think out of the list I probably have the most free shaking for the master. Well, it's interesting that that
you guys have chosen them as because that's, that's true Mazza, that's to focus because Master hadn't really done like a, like, a proper fast, hatchback in a very long time.
And they came back with that and kind of surprised.
A lot of people saying, holy crap.
It seems like a, it's a bit of a, it's a bit of a sort of a rocket ship. I was like a low six second car
to 100. And, you know, I mean back then
in my me still, is it took pretty quick considering like the need the closest card too. That was, you know, just a
little bit off. So the, the vxr, again, crazy
talks to your. But I think it looks pretty
cool, especially in the blue of all the blues called I didn't blue, I don't believe that's it. Always like that color.
It's such a really pretty color. What a one of those in that
column would be would be really cool.
Again, the orange xr5, it's kind of very, you know, for that time. But what do you what do you guys
think about? Like the curls sportivo with the
salika high-revving lift motor? Okay good.
This green onion. When you read liner for another,
one of those will do you have something different now, you just had to stand across. It was made to look a bit sporty
and finish it. It turns out he defend himself.
Yeah. And then I start making films.
I think that everyone just went, there's also the, the in there which, which had a pretty good chassis from all the counts, but, however, was not as reliable and a bit. Plus we would be more plastic
than the other ones and just weren't wasn't as pleasant as and drive as let's say, you know, the Mazda or the, or the, or even the even the gulf, the Golf GTI had had an ace up Our Sleeve, which was the DSG being a major shift quicker, but kind of takes away from a hot hatch. But however, that was the genie.
I was kind of like the game changer for bringing in turbocharged touchbacks again. So go.
Get rid of it, it's true. They're not to be a downer but
the markets or sorry the streets are saturated with golf gti's.
Well I'm kind of sick of hearing him.
Yeah. So here in the DSG fart.
Yeah. Yeah.
They say like shit. Yeah.
So if I had to pick one, I mean I've been in I want an extra five Timber when they were new good mate of mine had one and it was black. It was a elevators like a series
2. Two black leather, heated seat.
It was an it was a nice car used to go good touring and the noise it made was beautiful. It's I mean it's a real hard
like I really like the Mazda3 a so I've always liked them as the three a sand. Well I prefer but see the thing
is if I put a mix them as a six and be like I wish I would have got that all Drive Etc connects to the MPS in a way.
Just I mean come on Yeah, it can't put the power down as well as like all of the other cars. But even though it's it's I mean
it also had very, very thin tires Wheels throwing it had 21 files, whereas everything else I'd like to 35.
So I can't like this or some, you know some some wider wheels and for that and for all the kinds of you know, being an Excel file and just a noise they make, I'm going to go except for that one. So it's a five Takes the Cake.
My next one for you guys is a bit of an interesting one.
Moving on to rally cars now, Alan's got one of these beanies backdrop of his picture right now but it's a period where Mitsubishi and Subaru were very, very dominant in terms of in terms of, you know, rally and they had, you know, race bred cars on the street which sold quite well.
What would you take out of a true door?
STI gc8 or a Tommy Mac in Indonesian?
Evo 6. Now it's not a money. 50 years.
Sorry. Not a 22 beer, not a 20 to be.
No. Okay, it's got it.
What was the wr-- X 1? Again, STI Coupe.
Okay, like the version 6 or something.
Correct? Yeah.
Hmm. She's lyrics.
What would you choose the Rex? Why?
I know, I like am it. Cool.
Then, what do you think is not was the Heat game?
Because I'm trying to, I'm trying to, I'm using my keyboard sometimes internal between the both.
I don't know. It's like I'm a, I'm a Subaru
boy, as you know, but I don't know.
I was never again stever's. It's just, I think the Writer of
an issue today they had something serious.
When always the bad guy would have an eager like the to dork with a dozen down the to Dos does sound appealing burner like a, you know and even with the name to it as well could be good. I don't know.
It's hard to pick, sir. I'm on the fence for now.
We all know. They're like the audio and Evo
boy. Forgive me a GTR, this and that,
and then I drive an X. And we're BMWs broken.
This, that are my neighbor boy. All the way, the band wagon
boys. What he is?
No, I Rex is breaks gonna be bandwagon.
Go get your head gaskets fixed. Let me learn that.
Haven't gone yet sir. And they weren't why some get
ready. No, need to later Eva.
It's tough choice, because it's like the perfect Rexy shape.
Yeah. And that version 6, and that was
on Initial D, as well as I wanted.
But I'm gonna have to go with the tommi makinen addition.
I think, why would you say that? Is just a rally car, ready for
the street? Just has it just has some kind
of presence that's just yeah that's awesome to me.
That's like the most raw restivo.
They made in terms of like I mean the 12 and 34 were in five years so we're pretty raw cars. But in terms of like a
colleague, you could just stick a set of pads in and take it to the track or whatever. Probably, the Evo, Evo 66.5,
where they say these days. Yeah.
Well, Tony Mack would definitely be the one We're going to go to a quick break. We'll be right back after this,
no. But I was going to say, on the
topic of tommi, mäkinen evos and the I guess, Coop, WRX STI, is they? The Subaru is a commanding,
basically, twice the price of the device.
I've seen the, the Evo's were around 40, 44 around that kind of Mark and the, the STIs are about 80 plus, I guess part of it just might have to do with Supply Like there's about four available STIs on car sales, 12 Evo's.
So, it might just be that the people that it's in the sellers, kind of favor at the moment, the market.
But yeah, I can't be sure. I'm on the evoke a the most
viscerally vo and I look and say that they were just a brilliant car to drive. He also wants to own an EVO be
something like that. Yeah.
But at Amy's like a. It's a, it's a rare car in self
as well. Like it's a remake that many of
them, but my question is Scott thing, as you try to call me back. Would you have it full Stripes
package? Or would you have it strapped?
Deleted package? Now going to have two straps,
good at this right here, got to have it.
I think Adrian Adrian agrees, it would be there.
Now my last, what would you rather for this evening?
It's it's the end of the 90s. And you've got, you've got
somebody to buy a big sedan. Now you wanted to buy long
wheelbase, big, big luxury Express, Big seventh commandment, not a Fairmont. So you're going to go for either
a long wheelbase 7-series, a long wheelbase S-Class or in our D, what would you go for and why you already know my answer to this? Why can't I pick a hold?
And Grange, Because this little bit.
Yeah. There's no Grange in there.
I'll put the Grain in it just to make you happy use list again.
No, I don't believe I ate seven series some shit.
The a class S Class S Class. Well, the new S-Class mr.
Coops. I'm confused.
Anyway, and what exactly what reuse we looking at 2,000?
2,000. All right, you've just passed
the Y2K bug. You survived your stocks didn't
crash. Everything's okay.
And to show your wealth to us peasants.
You willing to buy big executive, Carl and marsh land, barge a so you've got your big Ali, your big bins and you big bhima and just like Adam happy, The Grange in there as well.
What are you going for and why? Which one's going to show your
your gentlemen's region bigger than the other people?
Gentleman's regions, we which one's going to show a compensation of gentlemen's reason just correct.
Hence, why wait for the Grange, right?
It's a nice car but you're not showing off too much, right?
No, see what the grave showing off that you don't have good gentleman's region and you do much of a brain either and you didn't do as good as your help. So what are you going to go for
the nello? Are you going to compensate
where you going to not comes out as much?
I don't know. I'm compensating with the V12 if
class. Yeah here we go.
We got a full hand you know with this.
He wished it was somewhere there Alan menu wish there was a 12.
Don't worry exactly kind of the 12 inches so we have to make the V12. Yeah, exactly the fit and couple
of women in there to make the nice little less lonely but yeah, that's nice. Really what I go for.
As got that just just the right amount of kind of drug dealer appeal. It's not too much, you know,
where something like Alexis of the of the age would would give you that very much. Yeah, he deals drugs.
Yeah. So I'd probably go for the the
S-Class. Okay.
Limited numbers Scott on the same I guess class.
It's because I mean, the BMW BMW sucking unreliable.
But also those sites 7 Series, all you look like you just look like a chauffeur. Yeah. 7-series like that's what
helps the chauffeur's have bought and you know, you're seeing going to the airport all the time and stuff for the 7 Series. So you're not really standing
out there but the S-Class that's top-of-the-range all the best technology at that time. Like the technology that's in an
old S-Class. Now is just what you're going to
get in brand new cars today. Yeah.
They were always ahead of the time.
So you have perfect dream. 7 Series all the way.
Why? Because amazing, So you really
show you what you see that Alpena that like who these garage him? What a fucking shit.
Yeah, I know this is kind of slow enough time because this is the thing, was it w140? I think it was an S-Class Yasin
S600 that they had in Japan that they put an F1 Style exhaust on it. Well, wasn't it?
Fun Style exhaust. But the exhaust was made I think
it's like 12 thousand dollars. I would make the engine sound
like those. An F1 engine.
Sure. Like if you could do something
like that, that would be ridiculous.
Well, that's it. Believe it or not was in the
Zonda pretty much like that. Same Big 12.
Just just with a few different tweaks obviously.
But yeah, they can sound like as under pretty easily because it was all to do with the equal equal length, headers and stuff that equal length Runners. Yeah, yeah, again, the doing all
the math on, that was ridiculously kind of time-intensive. That's why I think he wanted to
charge about 12 grand for some head of sounded good, but it's didn't look very fast. Yeah, the car would not be going
anywhere. That sells like crazy and like
yeah right off his head and you're ready to just watch it wash pass. It's just like, But, I mean,
it's a 7c, it's a sorry, it's an S-Class, it's a big heavy tank, like a German tank, that's basically, you know, it's probably pretty much that. I mean, it's cost is the I still
think today the best car you can buy in the world.
Like, you know, like like a top-of-the-range Maybach is like submit to me and made a statement car.
If you buy a Rolls Royce over and maybe for me, I don't see the point because kind of a, you know, a Rolls-Royce is just a bit of a like a The garden. Look at me.
I got a roll. It's a glorified.
BMW is what it is. Really whereas in this class,
um, you know, like a Maybach just like wow, that person would have my back like that's a statement.
So All right, here in the back of thomastown, whatever he goes sideways and and actually having fun.
And I'm the one in the S-Class Callin.
The cops saying, this is whooping in a Commodore typical, typical and Adrian's stuck in his garage because it's beautiful. It's very good.
So 12. It is time for my favorite
segments of the week, which is drum roll.
Please Co the week. So it's kind of the week where
you're we all pick a car on the classifieds anywhere that's 10 grand or less. And we all pick at the end who's
got? Who's chosen the best car?
So, Who was a start? Would you like me to start first
today? Yeah, I can start.
Let's go. All right, so I don't have it on
my phone so I'm going to send it through to our chat water so you can all have a look at it. So I'll check that through now
and then I'll talk about it, lures.
There we go. So it's a virtually a
Lamborghini because of the headlights.
Manuel, it's only got 187,000 KS.
Is it a viable? Yeah, it isn't.
So yeah, he's done plenty of work to it.
So he's saying 450 rear wheel horsepower, but I don't know, could be close to it. Maybe he's telling the truth
Zedd. 1655 injectors bigger fuel pump, be regulator, wideband O2
sensors and this to d.c. you three inch exhaust.
Pretty boost controller. Blow off valves High ratio
diffuse heavy-duty clutch short shifter quickly around fully adjustable suspension, doubled your head unit with someone a leather interior battery located, The Brute and R32.
E TR rims. Is there a Dyno sheet of the
450? Or is it Muhammad tuned it while
we're driving on the streets? Hmm, well you can chew nannies,
June on the street. So maybe I mean the first thing,
the first thing I do is rip out the stubborn are Yep, I'm not about that life, that's just added extra weight.
So I'd rip that out. It does have a few bad points,
but He's listed. So it does need a new oil sump
as its dripping oil. That's easy fix.
I'm sure it is silicon all good. I mean it's 1990.
So I'm going to assume that paints are going to be that great anyway so it doesn't bother me.
Does mention the cars running rough at the moment?
Suspected did coil and possible vacuum leak, suspected?
Yeah, good times. Do you know what that is?
It's running and it says I will not be supplying a roadworthy as coilovers and blower Fells and I just read that.
Yeah, I just read that bit too. It does come with the, I like
it. And how much is the car?
Scott. Exactly 10.
But I'm sure you could get it for 800.
Really? Like this guy has a great car
honking looks pretty cool. I like it plenty of mods.
Yeah, not a fan of the wheels on it, though.
I don't think the wheels work. Neither little bit tucked in.
Yeah. All right, Adam.
I was just seems to have gone to shit, so we're going to put you on pause there, buddy. Just tell me your you become a
robot. We just have a different mind
frame. Its a mix 6.
GT it is, it's got the 2.2 liter, it's a manual.
It allegedly had the timing chain replaced.
Basically, 2,000 cases ago, everything is allegedly in good condition and everything is all stock apart from an aftermarket head unit. Apparently it's a great car to
drive but they won't be providing a regularly.
They're only selling it because they're buying a new car but there Open to kind of people having a test drive, send me a message through whatever you can see a few more pictures of the car itself. Yeah.
It's like all through the interior.
Looks pretty clean. Yeah, overall and it's available
for the princely sum of 38 99. So quite cheap I would say
compare and he's like are you gonna vote for it first?
I'm just going to go back to 300, one of the guys from work, he's got a 300 and he's hurt. And it's funny because the other
day he brought it in, I looked at it, I'm like bag.
Kick it out, it's a Turkish Lamborghini himself laughing.
It's like it's so true. But anyway, I thought I'm going
to go back to the 80s and I got a hectic carbo, but it's clean.
That's a line on the Reel and clean can't go together like oil and water. Yeah, I'm buying old granny.
So clean. There is no Veil on this part of
that site. Clean It's been 183,000 on the
clock. That's also scam every single
vle needs at least two and fifty thousand case at this point.
Most hollering, the 300, okay? So it's a real exact good.
Condition interior is almost Immaculate as 183,000 on it Engineers, healthy owned by an older gentleman for 32 years and well, looked after tires are pretty easy branched.
Yeah, you guys are I like see something good by the gulf.
Yes, is buying off an old lady and the fathers have another case. I give it a thumbs up to the
times I call, this is we hit the jackpot here, buying it off an old lady doing flashbacks to when the old lady only and she's like jumping it and like handbrake is here.
And it's Dora. It's quite hot.
For it. You're implying that a v on the
Northern suburbs is legit? Yeah, and clean, you know you're
gonna get bashed in, you may take it from you then.
No, no Roadie. Their registration pretty sure
barks I don't think so not for that price.
Yeah, I don't know what you're talking about.
What's of inflate? They say now that income with
thin plates back then. Yeah.
It's a genuine be T 1. It says bt1, like the guy just
etched it with a pin in 1881. I swear it's on the registration
page suspension Adam. I mean, now barely barely.
Is it clear? That's better.
That's better. Yeah, I'm going to try and share
this in the chat. See how it goes.
In the zoom shot. All right.
Yeah, it's been checked. Oh god, let's have a little talk
about it. All right, 2000 model, aux are 8
to 20. You the city in supercharged, so
the two 20s were basically T Series engines, so they would him bill, so they're pretty cool little car.
Yeah, I just I just think that's cool.
I mean price is a bit average. I mean you could probably go
along with that. I mean it looks good.
I reckon looks nice and Sleek as bad as a huge look.
That doesn't look too bad. Not bad.
Adam, this is build November 2000, Factory 5-liter, V8, Ford motor has got gauges, memory gear, knob tickford, mats, supercharged t-50 front lip. Rebound skirts mechanically
excellent. That's not bad.
And how much do they want for Adam?
I can't remember. You get the price David.
Yeah. Sorry.
I can't remember. These have to leave.
It's a little bit much for what it is.
But honestly you have to look at it to see.
Could be worth it. Hey, it's supercharged, it's a
great car. It's pretty cool.
Oh yeah. Oh yeah, that's pretty good as
well. I just can't give up on the
rims, though. That's a, yes, they're okay.
Yeah, they could be better. He's only take four rooms on
their be pretty sweet. They need to be constant
Simmons. Yeah.
Yeah, but Simmons actually. All right.
Without a rear spoiler. I like them without Miss foiler.
Yeah. I like it's actually looks good.
Yeah. And being a 220.
It's got obviously the more powerful motor but now it's been supercharged talking that mode is hand-built.
They they drive really well. It's a manual to.
So they've got IRS and all the good suspension goodies.
Are we going to kill a car for the money?
Yeah. Yeah.
Use a little bit ugly but that, that's some tidy.
Yeah. My choice, I want you guys to
guess it's from 1992. Now, what cars luxury cars with
Toyota making back in the 90s. Crown.
Now it's after the crown. Christina, Christina.
Okay, so I'll read the description before I show it to you. It makes 83 Toyota Cressida runs
and drives mint. All the electrics work except
for the reverse like needs to be connected to the gearbox, sorry to be manual. Swapped menu W 58 with runaway
housing needs an i7 T, super healthy to fit properly, but still works. It's got a 2JZ non vvt-i but
non-turbo He has to 50,000 Kay's.
Interior is very clean apartment, shifter, no, engineering for the swap no region, are, roadworthy comes with welded if no, AC, or no heater.
It's pretty much ready to. It's pretty much ready to be
drifted out of it. Started off pretty good and then
you get to the so, it's pretty much Is the kickoff, 4,500 bucks. All right, get it is worth more
than the sum of its parts of 4,500 bucks.
You're getting a to Jay Manuel swapped for Sita with a welded.
If we should be good to, this was the bad points of that list of bad points. Heading to the engine still
good. It's a runs and drives fine so I
feel Like I feel like you test-drive it can sing, it's not registered. I'd still test-drive it and I
would also think that you know, the fact that it's not already engineered is from because in energy doesn't would not touch this car so you can have track you some on every engineer with touch it. You just got to offer enough
money so you can offer another 4,500 or something to make this like a 9 Grand car. Yeah, that's it.
Go to seeing the bigger picture. You know I don't do you guys
think that you're not seeing the potential, remember that it's all about the potential because I mean a7m to a2j in terms of fitting other thing would be that far different.
So like I think that is a pause in jeering pretty easily consume that it's the right Maddie I see the pin.
That's exactly why he hasn't gotten past engineering and selling it as easier. It's probably because he's
broken and doesn't want it. What's the what's the generals
name? That was a generous amount of
selling it? Jeremy Jeremy.
How's that spell? That means it is Why.
But I Yes, it's a fantastic.
Four thousand dollar car destroyed on the word Adam out of the out of the five cars we've got which would which would be the one that would get your mind.
I don't know, like the are you. That's just me.
Well, isn't Adams the only one that comes with a roadworthy.
Yep. Yeah.
Scotty. Hey, you is good.
Very tempting. I'm leaning towards yours.
So Maddie You like a Christian he sees the potential.
I don't mind him. I mean if things go bad you can
get your money back with just that engine and transmission easy. Yeah.
As long as it's not stolen, who cares?
My money is going to the X. Alright.
It was a pimp and car I think you could talk them down a little bit for the price or you know, count keep the shitty rooms and bring that down. So I'd probably give it to that
like look be the MX6 was a good overall cart actually picking vibe But if you choose on special out of the group, I think the XRS got it. So it's got my vote.
Adrian. I want to take his Lamborghini.
You want the lamb again? Exactly.
When can you turn around and say I've owned a Lamborghini part, but all I have to do the learning of that headlight and just on my profile and say I own a Lamborghini.
Yeah, but I thought let's see the carpet.
I'm gonna go for the, a you because I reckon that is a killer car for the money. So, my votes for the, a you that
means Adam, you win with your you votes.
Well, um, congratulations. That's a grand prize is nothing.
Well I'm looking at it now. It's actually even like the car.
Yeah, it looks really good. But nice job.
Yeah, I would I would actually consider buying that like that is a good maths. It looks it looks really tiny
and the fact that it's a manual to means that it's like, you know, it's been. It's been, you know, it's a bit
more than in the own Enthusiast. Susie is motor.
It's just, it's in Noble partner.
That's all Where's my now? I mean it's like that area.
Yeah. Well if it makes you feel any
better the MX6 one Franca So I think that's it for tonight voice, but we've got a bit of an announcement.
We have open about tsp. Yeah.
