Yes and Yes, use the search function more adequately.

mmmmmm ......and when I said this I got blasted, has been posted for etc; I remember that I got hammered for this on the forum. Double Standards?

Blast from the past. Yes, there is! A set-up similar to the TRD/Brash Brothers/CES system, when it comes down to it; and R&D research; who cares, its just a quality built pipe! Talking to a few exhaust places, they claim that our set up is very good and efficient, and the only thing that you should do is get a more free-flowing/performance based catalyct converters. Apart from that, the rest is looks and noise.

http://www.drive.com.au/editorial/article....&vf=2&bg=1&pp=0 The 400kmh supercar The Sydney Morning Herald Friday May 13 2005 It's official: Bugatti is about to claim the title of the world's fastest road car, reports TOBY HAGON. Legendary sports car maker Bugatti is to produce the world's fastest road car after a prototype last week exceeded 400kmh on a German test track, silencing critics who predicted the car would never achieve its ambitious goal. The multi million-dollar Bugatti Veyron 16.4 - its name refers to the 16-cylinder, quad-turbocharged engine that has more power than a Formula One car - achieved the feat on a Volkswagen test track. The German car giant bought the famous French Bugatti brand in 1998 and has been working on re-establishing its supercar credentials ever since. Bugatti says the 750kW test car, one of 11 prototypes developed leading up to the planned launch of the two-seater vehicle, achieved the speed "several times". From that speed (and assuming its brakes retard the car at a similar level to other supercars), the Veyron would take 750 metres to stop. As well as the seemingly ludicrous top speed, the all-wheel-drive Veyron can reach 100kmh in just 2.9 seconds. Such performance raises questions about the safety implications of a car capable of travelling at four times the legal speed limit, although - just as Ferraris almost never reach their potential on public roads - Bugatti says such daring will most likely be left to race tracks or private roads to which well-heeled owners would have access. Reaching the 400kmh milestone was a relief for Bugatti, which delayed the Veyron project more than two years due to development setbacks. Customer deliveries of the Veyron were originally slated for 2003 but overheating problems, concerns about high-speed stability and stringent quality standards set by Volkswagen made the project run late. The first cars are now expected to be delivered to customers by the end of this year, according to Bugatti president Dr Thomas Bscher. Bugatti says it will cost 1 million euros ($1.65 million) to buy a Veyron. Only 300 will be built over six years. Add GST, import duty and luxury car tax and the price of owning a Veyron would be about $3 million, depending on the exchange rate. Which, along with the fact the Veyron will only be built as a left-hand- drive, may explain why no Australians have dipped into their savings just yet.

Great one boys, its good it has made the papers :D It might make Toyota and take notice and listen to us ← Yeap TRD_141 That was me! :o Following is the original that I sent "un-edited": - “Oh what a failing”. Dear “Herald Sun carsguide.com.au” A while back I was reading an article about the Toyota Corolla and Ford Focus imported from South Africa. In the article, it stated by John Conomos, head of Toyota Australia; that there are “no issues” with these vehicle that are imported from South Africa and sold new here in Australia. I fully disagree. I would suggest that he consults his Customer Centre before making remarks such as these. I currently own my second and third Toyota Corolla's that where built and assembled in South Africa, and again, all are plagued with build and quality issues, from horrendous paint and panel fit, to the recurring rattles that these vehicles are inundated with. After further research on my behalf, I found numerous websites in Australia, and other owners of such vehicles have identicle issues. I am currently working with Toyota to resolve these issues (for nearly a year now!), and still remain unresolved; but the point I wish to make is, that car manufacturers should listen to their customers, especially those that purchase vehicles on an ongoing basis such as I, before stating facts that these vehicles “have no issues”. It may be that my next personal vehicle purchase may not be a Toyota, so too the fleet that I manage. From “Oh what a failing”.
