Cheers for the advice, ended up speaking to the seller and I am giving him a few extra $$$ and he will leave the plates on and like CBXRT said just drive it home and get it all sorted back in VIC. Can then get any money owing back from the rego and will be heaps easier. The seller has been really good about everything which helps a lot when going this far for a car. Now to wait a few more days and will be going for a good drive home!

Hi everyone, I will be buying a car from NSW and I live in VIC, I was going to fly up to NSW and drive the car home (the car is 1200kms away) as I want to double check that the car is what it seems before handing over the money. I was most likely going to get an unregistered permit for the car in NSW and drive it back. It will need a RWC to get the permit which the seller has agreed to organise which should be fine as he has assured me it will pass a road worthy. Are there any other options as the car is currently registered? Is it possible to sign transfer papers, drive it home and then sort it out for VIC reg? The only other option I can think of is leaving the plates on it and signing something saying I will only be driving it for X days and will pay any fines, tolls, etc incurred. This is of course if he agrees to this. I have tried ringing the RTA about this, but they have been little help. Thanks.

I found them listed on the super cheap website, thanks.

I would like to buy the plugs already gapped, but been looking on the NGK website and looking at plugs for the BF XR6T they are gapped to 0.9 with the part number - BKR6EIX-P. I couldn't find any listed that were gapped to 0.8, which ones should I be looking for? Throttle body clean and checking cooler hoses will be added to the list for the weekend too. Diff oil has been done fairly recently.

Hey Everyone, Booked my car into Pitlane next week for a tune and injectors (can't wait!) and want to make sure my car is running spot on before it goes on the dyno. First question is what spark plugs should I be running as it will be tuned to ~10 psi? I have done the following / will do the following is there anything else I should do beforehand? Car is a 2003 BA XR6T with 65,000kms *changed oil + filter *serviced the K + N air filter *fuel filter has been changed around 20,000kms ago (but will most likely change it again) *change spark plugs *will get manifold / turbo bolts tightened *will get the auto serviced

Hey everyone, I am looking at selling an intercooler but theres a good chance it will need to be sent as I live in Albury / Wodonga. It is going to be too big for Aust Post so after a courier that will deal with a one off delivery. Any recommendations?

Thanks guys, good to hear what other people reckon and see some other guides / websites. I was thinking 20k or more, have someone putting an offer in today some time so see what happens. It is a lot harder to gauge what it is worth because it is not a GTS.

Hey everyone, I am thinking of selling my HK Monaro in order to buy a house and would love some feedback on what you guys think it is worth. It is a standard Monaro with the original 186s and 4 speed still in it. It is in good original condition with no rust (no bubbles or anything coming through the original paint which is presentable but showing it's age) and it is fairly straight. It's done ~ 270,000kms and the engine, gearbox and diff are still in good working order apart from some leaks. The seats, roof lining, dash and flooring are in very good condition with the only real marks are on the kick panels and the parcel shelf had been cut to install some speakers. I purchased it in 2003 from the original owner and it has been garaged its entire life. I also have the manuals, handbooks, receipt, original number plates, venetians and louvre. The tags are all matching and never been tampered with. The only modifications I have made is putting a CD player in the glovebox and an alarm / immobiliser. Here are a couple photos that I have hosted on the net.

Thanks everyone. I had a bit of a look on google and good things have been said for kaspersky and avast so will look into them first I think. Smicky - Norton is out of the question just for the fact that my PC is already old and slow enough as it is! I'm a bit overdue for a new one but it will have to wait a bit longer as I just signed a building contract! Commonwealth have been good about it all and said theres heaps of ways people can get the details. May have to wait a few weeks to get the money back.
