Without trying to start a flame war (who am I kidding)...... (I'm going to make an a.ss out of u and me and assume) A 2x2 300zx or even an NA 300zx isn't a real car, it's is one of the most impractical cars you can find. Having said that, I always wanted one because they are sexy. Yeah I'm not trying to say 'mine is better than yours' or anything. Merely suggesting, in good humour, that if the cost for bolt-on mods and general repairs to a Corolla is too much...

Lol and you own a Corolla... wait til you get a real car :P :D What is the definition of a real car? Evan, everyone puts ***** on you but you have bigger car moding balls than most of the people talking *****. Cant wait to see your ride in Sydney. I couldn't give you my example, it's not a Toyota ;)

SecaBoy parked outside his cousin's house in Sunnybank yesterday AND today!

Yeah they're still getting used to things, I remember when my boss was helping to get them set up not too long ago. That and we've had a 'global part shortage' for as long as I can remember. You can put that down to an overzealous HQ in Taiwan not allowing the main warehouses to hold much stock at all because of the 'global recession'. As such most people have had to wait 1-2 months for their parts to get manufactured and then shipped over here... We've had a lot of angry people these last few months :( It's still going on and probably won't be back to normal until mid next year :P Thanks for the praise on the car too :D Your green wheels make an awesome contrast... if only I was that brave ;)

Just take it to the Perth service centre and they'll at least fix the hinge cover, if not the Escape key as well :) If you can't drop it in then they'll organise a courier to pick it up from you and return it (for free).

We sure didn't miss each other this morning! ;)

Time to start modding!!! Give the Yaris a kick up the bum :D

Did you turn into JB? Should have beeped me! :P or rev'ed :P I surely did :) I work behind Bob Jane. You probably woulda looked at me and gone WTF retard if I beeped or revved lol!

Can't... I'm going to buy new fishies!!! :)

STYLSH on Kessels Road 2 minutes ago. I was in the orange 300ZX in the right lane at the lights but you didn't see me wave...

Yeah the shortcut from Kessels to Mains Road... I live in the middle bit near Mains Rd. There's less traffic lights if you go that way... and less traffic :)

FAR51 parked in Parkway St, Sunnybank. Drove past on my way home from work.

... or lack thereof.

Yeah, the 1.3L is useless stock. I have one... once you get some mods done it goes quite well but until then it's a bit of a dog.

Waiting on exhaust gaskets so no go for me tonight, next week should be fine though :)

that would be ingres Ahh there ya go, he was like 2 blocks from my house, with a car full of people... Nice car :)

Saw a nice red Aurion with black rims with a red lip today in the back streets of Sunnybank on my way to work. Plates were 88-YAP.

Only if my Z is ready... so probably not :P

Degreased the engine bay and rinsed with a high pressure hose. No more diesel and mud for me! It took 6 washes to get all that crap off the OUTSIDE of the car.....

No point upgrading injectors unless they are reaching their maximum duty cycle. This would only happen if they are clogged up and have an extremely poor flow rate or most commonly because of the applicationof forced induction. I highly doubt your '04 Echo has poorly flowing injectors and if you were boosted you wouldn't be complaining of poor power. If you were to upgrade them then you would be overfueling the engine as it would be using the same duty cycle but the injectors would be injecting more fuel in that same amount of time. The ECU can adjust the duty cycle to a point, but not enough to properly compensate for much larger injectors. In my experience, a resonator-back 2.25" exhaust, K&N Panel filter and a lightened underdrive crank pulley made a huge difference. To expand on that further you could go CAI/Pod filter and a full axle-back exhaust with performance headers. Anything more than that and the cost starts to outweigh the benefits. Things like lightweight wheels, removing the spare tyre, not having a massive sound system... they all help too :)

I'm gonna skip this again... poor little Yaris is still recovering from the hammering I gave it on the Skidpan on Saturday... I have an in-car vid and photos if anyone is interested :)

Heheh yep... I'm the one who thought your dirty car was a marbled effect ;)
