Here's something else to do for all of us with too much time on our hands .

First thing I ever bought for a car was extractors for my first ever project a 1000 wagon way back when I was 15 .

Of course I had to have the best and the best I could find were GENIE ,came up from Sydney and cost me $420.00 delivered and this was back in 1990 but at least I got a free keyring !!!

The first thing I bought was a CA18DE with Stumpy SKyline box But that was always the plan.

Clutches and diffs for the family 1200 wagon don't count.

two bottom ball joints for my ute. It was self steering on bad roads... rather scary. After that it handled like a go-kart, just like it should!

It was for a commodore but hey I had a VN wagon, LSD and I was on my P's. The first things I bought were Tyres, and tyres again about three weeks later. So on and so forth this viscous cycle continued until I had to buy and new engine!
