hahahaaha alritie then, ill be sure to hit you up

yeah so am i, I'm new to mitsubishi and lancer's. used to own a 99 vectra and that was terribad, even though i did know it front and back but it died so i decided to chase my dream

im guessing from your pics that you went to the jdm meet a couple weeks back?

i could be wrong though...

belle_tb_ES · Postby **belle_tb_ES** » Tue Apr 09, 2013 12:32 am

Yeh
I used to have a 1996 V6 Opel Calibra...same engine as vectra apparently. Most unreliable car I've seen...ever. Can't believe how much money I spent fixing it up.
JDM? Only meet I've been to( besides ccj meets) is the top secret imports mega meet..lol

yeap thats it, one of them "cars" cost me like 2.5 and after driving it for a couple months things started going pretty bad. Had a really low idle and kept cutting out. Tried everything and eventually gave up
THATS IT! the one at eastern creek yah? i keep saying the jdm meet :L i am a learner after all *sigh

belle_tb_ES · Postby **belle_tb_ES** » Tue Apr 09, 2013 12:46 am

Yeh...every time I stopped..whether it be at lights or whatever..it stalled or its idling would be going up and down....every time it was about to stall..it picked up revs brr brr brr brawrrrrrrrrrr. Hahahaha but I got so upset cos I didn't know what it was capable of

Yeh, that's it . Close enough :p

LuLu · Postby **LuLu** » Tue Apr 09, 2013 12:56 am

yeah thats about right, except mine decided to die at lights while waiting and just as the lights went green. A truck nearly hit me and thats what really motivated me to leave that car behind me.
Ahhhahahah don't be upset! just loom at your car now

a beautiful machine
yeap, definitely still on "lancer learners" :L

You vectras are very unreliable and as for ts Astra not far behind and ah Astra unless you get diesel ah Astra (rocket) and more reliable. Get petrol expect airflow sensors, coils , cams sensors , ecu to go and Sh!t themself. I'm a holden machine and see them come in a lot. Lol

The worst thing was that I had to order parts from the UK, because Holden didn't have them here or wanted a lot of $ for them. So then my car would be sitting at the mechanics workshop for weeks.

Near the end I found out that the oil mixed with the coolant. After selling it, I found out it was most likely the head that had cracked. Oh well, it is probably sitting in a scrap yard. Rego and insurance was cancelled....yes I stalked my car.

Lol that's true. Parts needed to come from UK. I had a v6 veteran come in 2 weeks ago for cruise control turning of automatically. I found it was a clutch switch. So I had to order that. Come from UK and took about 1 week and 2 days to get here.

Cammo00 · Postby **Cammo00** » Tue Apr 09, 2013 1:21 am

If you took the radiator cap off was the coolant bubbling? If it wasn't it be just a head gasket. Not a crack head.

belle_tb_ES · Postby **belle_tb_ES** » Tue Apr 09, 2013 1:26 am

Didn't look I don't think. Looked in the coolant bottle and there was a brown sludge like substance. Together with the idling problems and oil leak.....dun dun dunnnnnn

I've waited over a month for parts
