What did the lepper say to the hooker after he'd finished his business? Keep the tip.

I am thinking of selling my Sportivo and then buy an AU III XR8. Reason for this is is i have stopped drinking and smoking recently and suddenly have an excess of cash every week, so i figure that i can afford to pay running cost of a V8. looking to spend up to $20K, is the XR a good choice? or would you suggest another car?

Im not too fussed about the current priced of petrol. Reason is i recently gave up smoking and have just given up drinking, this works out to be approx $6500 per year that i'll save. Now im going to sell my Sportivo and am going to treat myself to a nice big dirty pushrod V8 and work the tits off it. I figure if prices are getting bad now imagine what it'll be like in 10 years, better get my V8 before its too late. A few bucks each fill up doesnt impact as much as $10 per pack of ciggies or $5 per pint.

Looks tuff as! Once out, the two versions of the new EVO (high and low spec) will massively out sell the WRX and STI I reckon. While Subie has gone all soft and conservative...Mitsu keeps the hardcore racer image going. Thumbs up from me.

That's an awesome job there mate, very impressed with the before and after shots. The engine bay is unreal!!

Gretal used to be a man! look at her body...she's a trannie

I know of corolla's that have hit over 200,000km on stock clutches. He thrashed it...im gunna give him sh#t for his cr@p driving now. Cheers for the ammo....

Hey people's, My mate has a Sportivo as a work car which is supposed to be fully maintained by the business. He has just burnt out his clutch, and is having a battle with the boss about who is responsible for the replacement cost. the boss says he's thrashed it and should pay for negligence, while my mate says its wear and tear. The car has done 83000k's, is this a reasonable amount of k's for the life of a standard clutch? or is it a bit lower then normal (aka thrashed)? Cheers all.

MTB riding is sick fun. I'd love to come along but 2 weeks ago while doing DH I did a superman dive over my handlebars and landed on my head and right shoulder at about 30 clicks....busted my collar bone....now i'm going to buy some body armour.

That is one of the funniest vids i have ever seen!!!! what a freak!!! might be set-up?

The turbo model has two rows of raised vents on the engine cover, the non-turbo has flat vents.

desperate times call for desperate measures... fresh meat Exactly

I've got a block of VB and a couch with my name on it for this weekend :D I hope its a decent contest, its good to woop A#se, but 2 all going into the final is better. That said, I think we'll whomp them in three test's each done in three days a pop

They look tuff mate, I like the headlights too, smick! Do you find shifting any different 1st into 2nd?

go the 17's plenty big enough if you've got coilovers. 18's look kinda funny on a small car. Personally i'd get lightweight 16's and dump it on it's guts.

Hey mate, I have lived in both cities; Perth- stay south of the river its much nicer, good fishing and nice beaches (without heavy surf, so you pommies wont drown :P ). Australia day in Perth goes off like no other city (by 10 fold). Excellent wine. its pretty dry tho. South West WA is awesome. you will adapt to the climate well. spewing its so isolated. Brissy- the place to go if you want action. everything you will ever want is within reach, the whole east coast is just a $60-$100 plane ticket, not to mention the pacific. The gold coast is pretty unreal. MY *** IT GETS HOT!!. I reckon if you want to settle and bring up kids Perth may be your starter (you can always move across later) If you want to have a bit more fun and travel around a bit, then Brissy's the go. its bloody hot! edit: why cant I write *** will it let me write ALLAH I wonder? 2nd edit: Thats dodgy, who puts these censors in?

I find the best method to be: 1~ pull handbrake on tight 2~ depress clutch 3~ dial up rev's to 5000rpm 4~ dump clutch 5~ leave handbrake on 6~ keep gas on!!!! 7~ hook it right, then left then right gain.

Cool idea! but only for show use hey, imagine how quickly they would fill up with brake dust!!

WOW. Im very impressed with the engine detailing Silva Did you do the design on that TUFF airbox? Looks to be very well finished, may I ask how much did that cost? Cheers

Why not? TRD dont want HSV and FPV to have all the fun in that market segment, probably drop the wheel size down for production tho.

Thats cool as, I've never seen one like it. were they sold in Australia?

Im impressed Cant wait to see what TRD Aus do to it. Cool work there vyets with the photoshop. The stock sportivo's were pretty dull when stock ;) , so a bit of work on these will work sweet i reckon.

i think we getting type R hatch here in Aus ... i seen another website with real pics and interior looks HOT Yeah the base one is so futuristic and has lit footwells and the most spun out dash ive ever seen, so the racer would for sure be better again.

Very nice!. Seen the base spec in a showroom and was impressed by the styling, but not the output, but this is KICK ACE!
