Well my car packed it in just after 12am this morning, cruising through the valley and I give it a bit (up to 3000rpm and backed off) and next thing I know is the engine is running like buggery and shaking the car like crazy. So I pull over and turn the car off, get it towed home, then have the RACQ bloke come out just after midday, he starts it then says turn it off almost straight away, cause he can see smoke coming from the very back of the engine bay. So WTF!!!I have no idea whats happened. However for the last few weeks it would idle rough at lights with the revs between 250-750rpm and would occasionally stall, but this was only at idle, as soon as power was applied it was fine. But now its f*cked!

So go figure...

Yeah I'll be taking it to Paul as its a Nizpro car, but it won't be going anywhere for quite a while as I have no money to fix it

LOL Yeah well not much I can do atm. Just gotta save up and get it to Elite and see what f*cked up. Hopefully it's not too expensive. I just hope the engine is all right, cause I don't have $21g for another one :S
