You better be able to beat a trumped up taxi or you will give the Stivo a bad name.
A guy has an XR6 here at work and YUCK just a falcon really bad interior trim etc etc . I like my bro in laws SV6 Commodore much better.
Guys,
XR6 Turbo would beat the stivo stock vs stock.
In terms of $$ value of mods $5k of mods on a XR6t vs 5k on a stivo .. the XR6T would BLITZ the stivo.
Some CHEAP mods available to easily obtain 290-300kw at the wheels.
Also the 6 speed AUTO is faster than the manual transmission in the ford.

Im interested in purchasing a new HID kit. I was just wondering if any1 with a facelift corolla has a 4300K-4500K HID kit on thier car, and if they found that they were suitable. I've had previous experience with a 6000K HID kit, but found it too bright.
4300-4500K HID?
why not go 4300-4500K globes
same brightness
less cash
same colour temperature.
different brightness or rather lumens. halogens will never be same as Xenons, sorry.
Agreed - HID alot brighter
if ur concerned about brightness get the bulbs then .. wont have the same look tho
-
Nice hardware Bill, hmmm from my wild guess, i rekon hes doing internal, and TURBO. Thats the only way to get more speed out of the car from its current situation is a turbo. So bill a T28 garrette ball bearing turbo?? :P
Or did u get ur hands on Takumi's engine???jks
Interesting..... ;)
Bill - uve donated ur engine and installing a Prius engine right? u turned enviro and the fuel prices hurting too much.
:P
-
great news bill!!!
thanks for all wat ur doing for us !!
Thanks to Bruce as well for pushing things on the NZ side of things as well
Yer thanks guys for all the effort and time put into tracking it down
No thanks to NZPost or AUPost for being incompetent

Hi Fad,
Thanks for your reply. I guess I should have stated that I have a stock Sportivo, so its not possible to run a 3.5mm headphone jack cable to an input on the stereo. It has to be a RF transmitter. In the long run, yes I will look at buying a new head unit, but thats just not possible at this point in time.

Belkin make a popular one

black stivo giving it some on mona vale rd st.ives tonight
-
Collingwood huh? I hear that you can't walk down any given road in collingwood without being mugged hahahaha.
guys in addition I think that your insurance is for the replacement of CAR value only and not mods.
So if your car is a write off you'll get a new rolla - stock. they wont replace installation of the mods except stereo i think
Anyone clarify?

Computing 102 - Elimination of possible causes...
Power obvoiusly isn't the fault or it wouldn't turn on.
Earthing is also obviously OK, or see above.
How old is the unit. Is it real old, cause if so, maybe it's just pooped itself....
its a 2005 model mercedes stock headunit with 10(?) speakers
-
Hi guys,
Posting this thread here because its non toyota related.
The headunit in my Merc C-200k just stopped working yesterday.
I drove around with radio on, parked and turned car off as normal
Come back and the lights light up but no noise out of my speakers ..
alot of the functions were not working either i.e. I could not change to AM and I could not insert a CD.
Anyone experienced anything like this before? My car lights and engine etc all work still
-
Thats awsome! i miss having a turboed car! The torque that sucks you into the seat is the feeling i want back again!
seems a tad slow for 240kw in a corolla - need to remove those subs and i reckon easy 12s :)

Guys,
Interested in buying a new digital camera this month and I know a few of you are digi camera nerds:P
So need some advice on my next purchase.
Been looking at Canon Ixus 55 - seen for $385
Anyone know much about it and can lend their opinion?
And what other cameras in the slim point and shoot category are worth taking a look at in the same price range? ($450 max)
Cheers
well have you decided yet ???
Yup gonna get the canon Ixus 55 coz its best value for money for my needs.
panasonic FX01 takes bad indoors and night shots
pentax a10 was worth a look but didnt get great reviews in its focus department
ixus 65 is nice but basically smae thing with half inch bigger LCD and 6mp instead of 5mp.
fuji V10 was good but heard it breaks easy
-
Eggbert_99's Canon is very nice, it can do Panoramic....nice camera indeed :)
But if you also do a lot of night & indoor shoots, Panasonic is good too because it has the Anti-shake Fuction, which reduce the chance of blur photos becos of longer exposure time.
Yah, as Eggbert said, you also have to prepair the money for a good size memory card, at least 512mb or 1G...nowdays the camera is at least 5 mega pixel, you can hardly fit any in the original card...so a memory card is somehting you have to buy as well. + you may want a pouch to protect the camera, a good one would cost $20-$30....
Already got a 1gig SD card from my last camera which died :)
so no extras ..maybe a pouch but thats peanuts

ive had good experience with sony cameras so far (im on my 2nd), except my battery is dead or something... it just wont read my battery sometimes...
but yeah they are very good for point and shoot too... and transferring pics to PC is very simple... and picture quality has been excellent too...
eggbert - what u think of the ixus 55? U reckon is worth $100-150 more for the ixus 65?
Think i can get for $480
the ixus 750 is nice but around $570
I paid $515 for mine ..
baised though ...
I really like my canon alot .. advantage of the 750 as well is its awesomely quick boot time and massive screen !!!!
i was looking at the panasonic FX 01 as well! except if you have seen the shots it produces in low light situations its crap! check out the sample shots at www.dpreview.com outdoor shots are awesome (bit better than a canon - no purple fringing and bright) and the 28mm lens allows more content to fit in a single photo. Has image stabilisation lens too
Also the battery life is really good, but ive read that the canon battery life is poor in comparison especially using the LCD.
Panasonic has no viewfinder tho - only a LCD but it seems like new cameras are moving towards that direction e.g. ixus 65
Only issue i have is that u get more shake using a LCD rather than the viewfinder
Guys
my decision
Ixus 55 - aug 2005 model, 5MP, 2.5inch LCD $385
or
Ixus 65 - March 2006 model, 6MP, 3inch LCD, no viewfinder $480
Any other options?

i parked mine about 3 car lengths behind another car and did that.
My driver side light is lower than the passenger side light tho so I dont blind on coming traffic.
