  1. sigh, this thread is so pointless...
  2. Lol, yes, i'm just bored at work and 300 was the last movie i saw. but the F in the 1ZZ-FE stands for fuel consumption and economy if u must compare you need to find a G tuned toyta engine, for the b16's case u'd probably be going all the way back to the later generations of the 4age. but at the end of the day, a performance engine a 1zze does not make.
  3. "there no reason why we can't be civil"
  4. Fools! Its coz the civic driver was persian, and there was an angry spartan tail gating him during the drag. you could put the same bloke in a suzuki and still get an amazing time if you give him enough incentive to go faster. did this make sense? is this madness? MADNESS? THIS IS SPARRRRRRTTTAAA
  5. Be the man, live the angry greek way. Place your quotes from 300 here. "its just an eye, the gods were kind enough to grant me a spare..."
  6. complain to toyota before u do anything else, its a new car so get it on record that its acting up. i never had this happen and my old ascent had racked up 50ish thousand kms...
  7. Its the old camry, just sell it coz no matter how much u spend, it won't look vip, nor pimpin nor sporty nor anything other then a family mover. save up and buy the new one instead or better yet, a real sports car.
  8. it depends on how much you want to spend, but if u want i'll pm u a place that will retrim the entire car in custom leather and it will be airbag friendly too. the quote for my car was about 2200ish
  9. Airbag compatible covers are made with the sides stiched with a tearable cotton thread designed to shear off when the bag goes. The other commons design is to use normal sticting on the sides but have the material perforated on the internal bit over the airbag and overlaid with a thin layer of rippable cotton. And i think the airbags are built inside the side wall of the seat (right under that "airbag" cloth badge) Bascially its a matter of how you are going to try justify stuff to the insurer if u ever needed to i guess.
  10. Some one mentioned cheap DIY and my name wasn't involved?
  11. The stock players have a rather sensitive laser assembly, one knock too many and :( well, on the non-mp3 single discs versions i've owned anyway. Since its acting up why not upgrade to a new HU? Shameless plug on my own gear but its free install if your're in melb so why not?
  12. and its good for drinking and the battery too!
  13. Lol, then i'll get a dozen posts saying to get phat 20s on... i'll get around to take pics when i get a new digital camra. BB's garage FTW!
  14. A huge plug for BB's garage who took the challange of installing coilovers on the VW yesterday. After hours of hard work, swearing and beating each other's knuckles. The BB boys came through and the passat lives a healthy 13cm off the ground. Thanks guys! I really appreciate the great work!
  15. an auto ascent with SRI and stivo cat back once hit 193 i believe. Oh and did u know that australian delivered Passats are speed limited to 210 km/h?
  16. Check my garage dude, you'll find most tweeters fit perfectly into those airvents on the dash. YOu should be able to pick up good ones off ebay by themselves. Mine came with inline crossovers so i just wired them up to the respective speaker wires. Or you can goto ***** smiths and build your own inline cross over (very easy) to the the job.
  17. yeah, not to mention japanese ease of maintainace vs european class and styling...
  18. to each his own... to each his own... oh wait, i've hit 1000 posts!!!! whoooo!
  19. so get that quote and then double it to ensure you have the funds to finish the job when the conversion gets hairy!
  20. i reakon if they turn this fella into a production model it'll be a better package then the polo gti and porbably faster too!
  21. Hmmm fair call i think because the vw is a fatter car, however, i'd like to see a v6 rolla ala Golf R32 ... that would be awesome! but given a choice between either car, its vw all the way!
  22. Nothing wrong with learning one more way to skin a cat huh?
  23. You don't see those widebody camry's being driven by anyone except p-platers and old ppl here in aust now lol! nice find
