Ralliart Lancers are a waste of time. You don't give a car a turbo and then slap skinny tyres on it and call it a performance car.

I've found Ralliarts that can't even keep up with a modded ES Lancer.

Does anyone know where we are cruising to? Need to know whether I have to bring sick bags for the wife.

some might argue that a supercharged FWD car is a wate of time also....each to thier own though i guess

*trav is now sitting in a corner rocking in the featal position crying about his crap purchase but feels a little better after insulting the TRD aurion even though he knows secretly he wants one*

How dare you, do you know how much the torque steer in the Aurion contributed to my biceps? :D

dont even talk to me about torque steer.

bwhaha

good point tho, what is the proposed cruise route?

I don't think there is a route planned, but it revolves around a mountain starting with the letter N.

15+ down the quarter mile ;) A customer was bragging he had one of the quickest stock ones in QLD (bull**** or not I don't know) and he ran a 15.1 in street trim, street tyres, etc.

Still pretty pathetic, it's even worse than just a CC Lancer with an Evo kit as you've actually paid stupid amounts of money to be an imposter.

EDIT: Probably won't be able to make it to this, have some things to do up the coast. It involves a new car that I just have bought :)

another mountain run *sigh*. cant it just be a nice relaxing drive for once. mountain runs are too draining and you feel so worn out afterwards cos everyone wants to be the hero + its night and i dont feel like crashing the colt + whitestivo cowers every time he hears nebo.

and yes i have shriveled up and gone limp i know lol

If we do a mountain run; why not take it more relaxed. No one is saying you have to go hard. I used to have fun going around Nebo on the speed limit once upon a time. Anyways, we'll see what uncle Bren has planned as it may not even involve this. I was just speculating.

And Rowan, why not get your Aurion back if you are just going to be soft. Otherwise you are just wasting your toy.

Actually I'm taking it soft too, missus will be with me, tyres are completely worn and I have a skidpan day on the 19th....I already had my fun at the track. Once I get my new tyres....it'll be another story ^_^

Anyways, if we do hit Nebo, this is a TOCAU meet remember. It's not like a cruise with the other forum guys.

and which other forum guys would that be :P

as for the n word... I will still be in it if we go up there, but a nice sedate cruise around somewhere pretty (if Brisbane has anywhere that is pretty at night) would be a welcome change from the usual mountain runs.

Nice cruise sounds good. As some of you know that celica isnt really ehalthy enough to try another Nebo run. Nearly killing myself and Mick (not to mention emabrassingly behind the everyone) last time was enough to tell me she needs a good going over and alot of new bits. Plus def need new tyres so yeah, easy going drive is the go. :)

its pretty simple really... if you dont want to push it hard, then go up the back of the pack...

i know i'll be right up the back... good tyres on the front and **** ones on the rear in a fwd car isnt the funnest way to drive around a mtn... :lol:

meanwhile... could i suggest someone (cough-rowan-cough) brings their camera out? it'd be good to get some group shots of the cars... no?

when you ladies start timing nebo runs, i'll come out and set the benchmark.

whitestivo

You need more than 'lift' to be quick up and down Nebo.

well bren has already set a cruise destination so we will find out on sat.

Phil - you havnt even been up there in your tivo you benchmark will soon be broken by nebo veteran daryl who has done it about 700 times lol

Mick/Ash - if your at the back tho its boring as you might as well go for a drive by yourself and when your on a mountain you cant contain yourself and you ahve to go fast which i dont really want to do for once. just want to go for a nice drive at the speed limit (till phil gets near me) as mick said go for a drive to somewhere pretty and where people may go waw thats a nice group of toyotas instead of hiding in the moutains with your nice cars, its like saying something funny and noone hearing it lol

Daryl - i dont drive my colt soft thats why i want a change. its fun to drive slow just like the aurion

      overheated engine

      I drive a 2010 series 200 sahara V8 automatic. I recently towed a small caravan on a not that hotter day. The temperature gauge went to about half then dropped back to normal. The motor then went into limp mode and eventually stopped. On lifting the bonnet i noticed the top radiator tank had split all the way across. I have only two months ago had the complete cooling system checked with no defects. I called the RAA in South Aust and they tried to start it but just turned over but did not fire up. It was still pretty hot. I have been told the motor would be ruined by overheating. The car has been sitting at the repairers for 5 days now and as far as i know it has not been attempted to start. Before putting a new motor in it would it be worth putting a new radiator in it and see if it will fire up? Open to any suggestions at this stage.

      1996 Trueno XZ - Is it worth modding?

      Depends on how common/rare they are in your part of the world. The XZ trim was the second-lowest so didn't come with most of the fun bits that the full-fruit BZG/V/R models did, so it's not anywhere near as desirable stock but sometimes you have to make do with what you can find, plus you shouldn't feel as guilty modding the heck out of it since most of it isn't special.

      VSC, Traction Control, Check Engine lights all on

      I attended Toyota Preston for Aurion ATX 2013 major service today. Cost $~$1300. On the way home I stopped to pick up dinner. Two fault lights: engine and VSC lights came on when I restarted the car. Car drove home just fine. I can only return the car tomorrow for them to sort out. Annoyed. Let’s see if they’re still on in the morning.

      1996 Trueno XZ - Is it worth modding?

      Hi everyone, new member to the group and owner driver of a nifty little Toyota Sprinter Trueno XZ, now this was my cousins car, I bought it off him and after various drives, I have come to the decision that this needs alot of love. Now I am wondering if its worth putting my time and money into doing this certain make n model up or should I just buy a different car to do up? I am not very car-inclined so I really don't know a lot. Any opinions would be very helpful Thankful!

      Android auto

      OK. Does any of Toyota's advertising material mention Android Auto? If so then kick up a stink, with Toyota management, about misrepresentation and false advertising, reminding them of the hefty fines. Herb
