Long time no speak.
« on: Aug 18, 2022, 05:06PM »
I searched for something a few minutes ago.. and it came to a thread.. here.. and there was a comment about davetrx wanting to sleep with me in the back of his diesel Navara.

I'll just say, I bought a diesel Navara. It's a little old now. STX550. It's a bit of a beast. But sorry Dave, while it's quick, it's still not as fast as my old TRX.  ;D

Hey Noss.
We should do a "Where are you and what are you driving now?"

However, doesnt appear as though many or the earlier members would be around.

It's good to see these forums are still here for reference purposes. I've checked in about every year or so (long time lurker) and sadly like most forums there's been less and less activity.
I've actually still go my rnu12 (14 years now) and will be spending a bit of time on it this summer.

Just sold mine today for a measly $3400, although it needs a bit of work. It's been in a garage for over a decade, tho' so clean as a whistle. Might need an input shaft or a thrust bearing. A guy called Luke, who I thought might be Luke from this forum, but not quite. And there's yet another Luke running the Facebook group. Here's the link for anyone interested: https://www.facebook.com/groups/bluebird.attesa

My daily is a ZG Outlander RX V6, but I've been drooling over Mazda's new Large Platform offerings and very curious about future models on the same platforms. Big bore inline-six, turbo mild hybrid from Japan... pretty exciting. With room to sleep in the back with the CX-90/70

Still lurking, although, mostly in the shadows.

Man, we had some good times back in the day.

 First post since 2008. Wow can't believe this site is still up and running but I am glad it is. I remember spending hours and hours on here every day looking for fixes and mods on my Corsair. Many many good times had. A few good times cruising. Thanks for the memories. Was driving an FG XR6T until about a month ago but it was a money pit. I regret ever buying it. Something would break almost every time I drove it. Now driving a 2004 awd magna that cost me $1500. Thats like half of what I paid for my Corsair in 2004 not even accounting for inflation. I still see one TRX occasionally on the streets of Adelaide up north which appears to be in ok condition but they are getting to be exceedingly rare. Entropy has claimed 99% of them by now. Haven't seen one advertised for a couple of years.

I still have it. I don't get to drive it much as I'm not in NZ often. Doing my yearly checkin. https://drive.google.com/file/d/1Z6o0RFaIeCnbvtm5uHfeIdBWVUQEmL12

I still have all of my U12 variants which I am scared to fully investigate, they are just sitting in the back yard and will need a lotto win to fix.  My TRX which was the old SIR_TRX pintara I have just started getting back on the road in the last few weeks. That one has not been sitting in the back yard and is what has what brought me back here.
It didn't start quite a few years ago and became a background item behind lack of time due to work and life.  I just started back on it a couple of weeks ago and the dust is now blown off, I have drained the fuel and replaced the fuel pump which I think may have been the original issue.  I have had the injectors cleaned but one has failed.  Searching through here led me astray as the injectors are not the RX7 low impendence ones as were said.  New injectors which may or may not fit, new fuel filter, new plugs and new head unit are all on the way.  Next will be hopefully be sorting out all the dodgy stuff which there is still alot of.  Then comes the unused time aged stuff , brakes etc, lowering the drivers seat and finding someone nice and I may be able to register it again.  It is now close to the stage of my kids being able to drive it, so I thought why not get it up and going.

Current daily driver is a RAM 1500 DT limited.
