i can really say that id love to have a good clutch for a daily driver.. a HD full face clutch is the way to go IMO
And A/C OMG I remember when the ute was off the road during the bush fires and driving round in the KE with no A/C on a 47 degree day wow that sucked. It was cooler with the windows up lol.

man my dad's car for 3 years was an s13, trips to the other side of melbourne sucked! haha
Your parents cars are farkin cool, I'd much rather stick it out in the back of an S13 lookin fly as fuck across town than a Hyundai Accent or a car of equal shitness.
Yeah I know exactly what that's like soo many cars that really should be only 2 seaters like all the nissan Z's, Preludes, Silvia's or nearly every jap 2 door. I remember squeezing in the back of my sisters Z32 300ZX omg head was against the roof and knee's up around my ears.
My old man use to have a 1993 Saab 9000 wow it was gay and the non turbo version too so it was sooo slow. It was comfy though.
He bought this about 8 years ago its the total opposite from the saab hard as fuck ride but quick as hell.
The power is not too bad, The brakes are insane, The gear changes are vicious there is no way you can change smoothly in this thing with the throttle wide open and having a ceramic clutch. It handles better than a wrx and that's with sports mode suspension off. It has ecu controlled oil filled shocks so you flick a switch and it stiffens up and it sticks like shit to a blanket!
This thing is a real drivers car no ABS, Traction control, flappy paddle gearbox or that shit just a straight out race car really. Funniest bit is it has a warning light on the dash that says Slow Down never seen it on but only been in it till 280
Great you tube video on them.

Your old man lets you drive his ferrari. top bloke haha. bet if you dont already have a missus that gets you some tail.
Any chance of the ke being ready for the weekend?
No way KE will be ready man I'm waiting for steering arms so I can finish the front end, then fit the motor, then do the rear end, then do the paint, then do the stereo, then put in the interior. Still 4-5 weeks away.
Haven't been able to do anything this week as I've been doing 3 3000 word essays that are due tomorrow for my business course.
Yeah he does but its really not that interesting anymore. Like at first it was fn awesome now its just like meh its just a car. Funny the way people portray you in it though. Me and my dad walked out of the casino to the valet carpark just dressed very casual. My dads given the concierge his ticket and the guy totally ignored him just kept his head down and gave the keys to a valet. We walked over to where the car comes up and when the concierge has seen the car he came running over to open my dads door. He just said to the bloke F off you See you next Tuesday.
It does get girls attention but if I was in my XR8 or rolla they wouldn't look twice so meh not interested in them.
i love shockwave blue but because of the paint problems i ended up buying a ba mark 2 in velocity. its 100% stock and its soo quiet.
warranty runs out in a month and i was thinking of getting ceramic coated 1 3/4" 4-1's with 100 cell cats and dual 2 1/2" system.
where did you get your rear bar?
Yeah mine was a BF series 1 and had the paint problem but got it all fixed under warranty. Yeah my difillipo headers and cats are insane and worth every cent of the $1400 I paid. My warranty was void the bastards 2006 model and they voided it Fraud are wankers.
I got my rear bar from bayside bumpers
Its a plastic bumper not fibreglass too so mega strong I've backed into a steep driveway and crushed it and all it did was scuff the bottom. If it was fibreglass would have cracked.
Nice looking ute.
Just out of curiosity, what are those wheels? As my mate got a set of them free with his BA series 2 XR6 ute
