Might be better to dump the car and by another one for around $5000 to $10000 that is in working order. Lets face it for you to spend $9000 on it whats it going to be worth when your got it up and running again?

Its got to be a pretty expensive car to be worth spending that much money on.

I hope you have a supercar like a Ferrari or something to justify this sort of price, if not might be time to get a different car!
What is wrong with it ?

It is a patrol diesel worn out the injector pump but you have to change the injectors aswell as it is a complete system most injector pumps can be rebuilt but nissan designed this model and later models so they cannot be rebuilt.
The motor is not getting enough fuel so will not rev above 1000 rpm.

A v8 wont get you around much quicker but will cost you a lot more in fuel and service. If you want something economical then there are a lot of good 4 cylinder cars out there.

I take the train to work , no problem at all mate, usually a relaxing ride and time to check out all the latest in the forum.

Then there is summer time and all those big boobs and low cut deep cleavage to be sighted !!

Cheers

I do, sure beats driving. Might be a bit slower, but no headaches from other morons on the road, don't have to look for parking spaces or worry about time limits. I get to my MSs relaxed, can have more fun with the girls.

Luckily i work a fifteen minute drive from home out in the suburbs.
Just while i have been off work and needing to get to the city a couple of times for apointments it is a real pain when you are not used to it.

I do not doubt the eye candy in summer would be worth the hassle.
But having too stand up and crowded for the hour plus it would take me to get home everyday if i worked in the city would drive me more nuts than i already am.

But the view of the boobs and cleavage is much better when you are standing. Watching the girls squirm when they know you are getting an eyeful is entertainment in itself.

I agree that would be the bonus especially with my height
