    if you can stomach the deposit you will be better off than renting after less than 2 years, my first full bottle was $599 and the swaps after that are $135 I think. (D size Argon.)

    and is mean because you just do a swap so no need to certify or wait for re-fills. I can't see the bunnings AU price being the same if the gas option comes to NZ due to economy of scale..  

    if you are going through truckloads (or use the larger sizes) stick with BOC / whoever.

    Have done this, much better option imo

  2. The cars are really understeery on AC. Definitely need the player content packs as they actually have decent tires, then spend a bit of time setting the cars up.

     

    The "drift ae86" in the Toyota pack is real good, need to pay but it's only like $5. Then chuck semis on then your away 

  3. Got some more shit for this while blowing money on my Z10.

     

    FCR41. Rebuilt them with the right size jets, will probably get a couple of sizes for max Kaicho jet changes at the track.

    Also got some new wheels. Going to weld some front guard arches on the back to fit the 9s.

    13x8 -12 and 9-25

    Also this cars always annoyed me in a few ways. The chassis is bent up front, the rears full of bog and heaps of other little shit. So have decided to cut it up for spare bits, and have bought another shell. The other shell comes with a full 4age setup. Smallport with ITBs and a megasquirt, T50 and 86 disc rear end. I should be able to sell it all off and end up with a better shell and not loose any money, or so im hoping.
