My name is Brendan.
Live in Murrumba Downs, Between Petrie and Redcliffe.
I have an AE-71 Spirit.
Bought it from an older lady that lived 3 streets away from the local shops and thats where she drove it to. Had 86,000km in june '06 and now has 130,000.
The paint is in really good condition for a 25yr old car. Every second weekend I give it a good clean (clay and polish if need be) and wax comes up nice every time.
The interior is in really good condition, even pulled most trims put and got the eucaliptis oil on them and it came up like new. (stunk the car out for a week!)
Have a new sterio head-unit, front speakers and a dual subs in the boot. Has an autotecnica steering wheel and gearstick boot.
In terms of drive train the brakes are pretty much standard except for the slotted rotors on the front. Standard engine (4-AC), gearbox and diff.
Supprised at how well it has stuck together over the years and hopefully nothing major to come.
Had Carby rebuilt about two months ago and it over fuels to the point that I even get droplets of fuel out the exhaust. Got to get that fixed.
I am a 3rd year Apprentice Mechanic and I get to drive some really awesome cars, but for road feel through steering, acc, brake, clutch, and seat, these are just awesome cars. I love getting back into
it and driving home.
Other than that, not much to talk about.
