well just had someone looking at my car.... seems problems are ...

transmition needs a full rebuild
alternator bearings noisy
theres coolant bein blown out the muffler

:rant: what *** else is gonna go wrong or what else should i be keepin an eye on?

Get rid of it and buy a new car. Its only gonna be more and more trouble.

Thats NOT an OPTION

i lost my job due to my car bein out of action

flog it off and buy a KJ verada for around 17k lol

Thats NOT an OPTION

i lost my job due to my car bein out of action

:shock: Sorry to hear it. That sucks real bad!! :shock:

You might get a new job a bit closer to home. Chin up. :)

Isn't your family in the towing game? You must have some contacts. Get an old Corolla, they are bulletproof, until you can save up for a better car.

dads a towie yeah but i dont wanna get into that ****.... shouldnt take me long to get another caring job, just having my ***** for the night

i think i've learned a very valuable but expensive lesson and fixing the problems for which i have caused in my car is the only option that im considering at the moment :)

it'll make me appreciate my car alot more when she's fixed.

A full transmission rebuild?? How many K's have you done? My 260,000k TS is still going good (Not the best, but it will last at least another 100,000k's)

i've done 210,000 almost

unfort i used to let my mates drive and thrash her... and i havent exactly been gentle with her so yeah

Well thats clever..

yer not too smart
just get another one in there and u'll b ok

as i've said lessons been learnt the very expensive way

Get a 3rd gen, they are getting dirt cheap now...

I hear your plea and feel your anguish!! :cry:

I think your best bet would to be to find a second hand engine and gearbox for the car. it would be cheaper than buying heads and seals then getting a mechanic to install them. Since your dads in the towing buisness he should be able to soarce an engine pretty easily.

I wish you all the best!

p.s. or get a new car is the other option!

the only option is repairing or finding another engine

but on the best side of things i have orientation for a new job tomorrow fk im good :D

shud be bak on the road in no time!!!!

2nd gen engines are pretty cheap in comparison to the bill for major work on them. Good luck with the new job and keep your *friends* in the boot - not behind the wheel ;)

shame i cant help from townsville :confused: , looks like your up for a head gasket, tranny and all the labour :cry:

EZ Boy they wont fit in the boot either thanx to my wikked boot install i guess i could always chain em behind and make em run :bowrofl:

WOOOOOOOTTTTTTT looks like im startin work on call as of now... *waits for the fone to ring* ohhhhhh and i mite have my girl on the road thanx to someone possibly payin my mechanical bill for me *crosses fingers*

Jason thanx you :)
