thanks for the info guys!

With the lever near the stearing wheel, my first assumption was that it was adjustible height steering wheel, but it wouldnt budge at all.

thanks Tony! Hopefully no one else bids on it, im desperate for a new steering wheel!

Hey, got another question about my Alto RSX. Ive been trying to work out how to get my foglights to work, but cant work out which button it is! I have tried turning them all on, while the headlights are on, but havent got em to work yet - its possible the lights dont actually work, but Id just like ...

thanks for that, ill take some dimensions tomorrow. From what I recall though its a tiny radiator! So Im not hopeful at all of finding a new one!

I reckon it might cheaper just to buy a new radiator - last time I had one flushed and cleaned it cost around $200. But then again the guy came to my house and pulled it out himself. Could I get a brand new one for under that price, or would a secondhand one from a wrecker be garuanteed to be flow t...

thanks guys for the info.

The temperature guage was going up to about the 2/3rds mark, maybe even close to 3/4. It normally sits just below half when im cruising around the city, even on a hot day.

What type of oil do you guys recommend?

I think its time I serviced my Alto, but I dont really know where to start with these engines. I also dont know how many kms my RSX has done (0dometer shows 24,000), but its only a 5 digit odometer so it could be 124,000. Im pretty sure my Works RSX has the F5A engine (Its a 546cc turbo). Someone co...

Im after a SAAS boss kit, part number 13-BK134L to suit my 87 Works Alto RSX. I have called supercheap auto, autobarn and repco and they can all order them in, but at $90 its not exactly the amount i really wanna spend on my Suzi (its just my daily runner). So just wondering if anyone has a secondha...

not until i sort out the cooling issues...until then, the Alto is fine for round the city, and the Legnum can be used for the open road (2.5L twin turbo goodness!).

Sorry for going a little offtopic here!

not a bad effort driving it all that way! I drove 50kms down the freeway the other day and just sat on 80, i didnt feel the car felt safe enough to go much faster (maybe im just paranoid) - also the temp needle rose a bit on the hills.

nice one! I was close to throwing in a lowball offer on this car of around $3000, but in the end decided against getting another car. But then just weeks later my mate decided to sell his RSX and it had a few extra features that the RSR didnt have. Did you drive it all the way back to melbourne, or ...

My standard RSX Works steering wheel is in really bad condition - the paint on the spokes has come off and slight rust is showing, and the foam has many large chunks missing, and is down to the metal in some spots. I have 3 options 1. re-painted and retrimmed. All the foam is coming away, so doesnt ...

its got 155/65/R13 tyres on it.

Thats only a fraction wider then their meant to be, surely that wouldnt make a difference?

Ive started throwing the little car around some corners lately to see how it handles....it seems to make a bit of a scrubbing noise on hard cornerting, similar to the sound tyres make when rubbing on guards. Surely the little 13" tyres arent rubbing on the guards? the suspension is all standard...

Tony, I havent really looked into the rego situation - havent had much time to spend on the Alto lately, been flat out building websites! As for insurance, I ended up going through Shannons for $600 a year. Was a lot higher than I wanted to pay, and its only insured for $3500 - I really dont like th...
