try driving those roads in a Yaris for a year lol...

i did that and the yaris doesnt feel the same ever again... :(

how deep is the cut?

if only the top coat is gone you might get someone like 'touch up guys' to put a layer of top coat back for you and then you polish it back...

if they scrape the paint off and u see the primer underneath then you better off getting a police report and get the insurance to sort it out for you...

I've also spray Glen 20 via the external air duct where the fresh airs comes in... and also below the passenger footwell... works a charm... but ofcoz any condensation will gives off the musky smell again...

E10 = ******* casket wines to go with kobe steaks...

You should see the bogan's reaction when someone came up with this thread...

Whirlpool Aurion SX6 Thread...

i think neither...

its the same thing except u get sat nav, moon roof and keyless start

which auctions did you went to btw?

for my aurion i went to the Pickles via internet live bid...

Hmm...

2008 Grande AWD with 16k km on the clock if you can get it for 48k thats a bargain me reckons... except if u from interstate having to pay for stamp duty in my case 3%... thats 1440 quid minimum or 1620 max...

very nice pantherx...

im thinking of trading in my Yaris for the Kluger AWD KX-S next year... this thread will be very handy...!

i think from what I read previously the current new Accord got this electronic sound proofing thing by matching the road noise frequency and playing the negative frequency to omit 90%+ of the noises...?

can anyone confirm for me?

Don't know if it's on the new Accord, but I've heard of it being in other Jap luxury cars. Ages ago I did a '06 Accord, two layers of sound deadener on every door panel and heaps in the boot. Once you were inside, you couldn't hear power tools being operated right next to the door :)

mate thats great im planning to do it with the Aurion...

once thing ive found with my Yaris... the BITUMEN PAINT if its dry will only take out the noises coming from engines going pass you... but does not some reason omit road roars... im planning to to supercheap and spray wet bitumen paint and cover it with domestic aluminium foils so i get more noise suppression for the Yaris...

sound proof is poor...?

i reckon is alright!

i seriously reckon 200kw is too much for a FWD...

160kw is about tight...

as you recall a Mazda 3 MPS also have alot of toque steer issue with its overly beefy power channelling to the front wheel only...

been to the gabba one and they are pretty good!

gonna take my aurion there for its 30k service...

I got those Osram night breakers as my fogs... they are fine...

LED like u said just for looks especially for fog lights... i saw those 1W ones i wonder how many lumens they could pull out...!

I prefer something more practical... hence HID for high & low beam... :P :P

Well... the way i placed my ballast i could use my hand and wretch it out if it fails...

the reason i took it off coz i couldnt get the bulb into the low beam housing as well as couldnt be bother sticking my hand inside the wheel arch to change the LED parkers too... so i might as well take off the bumper and do it all at once...

the only thing thats a pain in the backside is having to dissemble the front bumper and the headlight housing to install the kit...

i got both high and low beam both 6k temp... gotta love it...! :P

^

So true so true...

besides 20/20 thing is a f&*king gimmick anyway...

Hairy brow stay too long...

i think 95% of us would agree...!

I only thing I probably blame him is...

1. failure to seperate Telstra into 2 companies...

2. medicare levy where i dont even see doctors 90% of the time...

3. failure to get state government to get rid of their stamp duties and other assorted taxes when they introduced GST (not to mention excise duty on petrol...!)

4. ofcoz we still paying too much tax... =(

Remember that Australian Labor is just about as conservative as the Liberals (who aren't liberal at all)...at least the controlling faction are. There are huge differences between the American Democrats and Republicans (the Democrats are quite liberal) and the Republicans are very conservative.

yeah they are both conservatives compared to the more moderate politics of US democrats... but still dont understand why people wants to vote for greens !!!

but he speaks mandarin...? haha

my friends all liked him coz they are all asian like me...

at the end of the day i dont care if our PM could speak martian... all i want is for Australia to prosper and tax less...! lol

problem is...

Rudd also used the same tactic over the old Howard and got into power...

also so far alot of ppl reckons nothing has change either.... (you could argue over the stimulus package that they were forced to act...)

US mind u has alot more problems on all levels than Australia... I'm just hope that by the end of his 2 terms... (given Bush was...) he will leave US in a better economical shape...

I got all 3 sets of HID off ebay... its not that bad...

I got those 6 SMD led bulbs...

so the pop off cover wouldnt fit back to the housing... its now sitting in my garage collecting dust...

even i would like to think alot of us thinks the factory beam was set up properly/perfectly...

Wheels had a absolute dummy spit on the Aurion beam set up during their review... (I think its the Aurion rather the Camry...)

^ LOL

I was thinking the article was from Street 'Dores... and 1st thing came into my mind is... is it even legit... ?!

Then again I think the best oil for those 'Dores are probably those used canola oil...!
