STYLSH

Rubber consumption. I swear toyota didnt say anything about excessive tyres wear.

Pretty sure none of us can make it lol

HE HAS NO LEGS!!!!!

And hope he had a fire extinguisher!

Damn I dont know what I am going to do. Not sure if my bits and pieces will land in time for me to put the car in for new toys to be installed. Then I dont know if the car will be ready in time if I put the car in, if the toys do come in soon...

What to do, what to do...

Mt Nebo! There is something mysterious out there that sucks the petrol out of the tank at a high rate of knots and also eats away your tyres!!

HAHA

Sydney has the worst roads I've driven for sure and I was on 25th click (hardness) /36 setting on my coilovers :).

Yes just remove it and you're done.

So you can actually tell it was a wrap?

Take the left wheel off.

Take the guard lining off. You can do this starting from the front as you wont need to undo the whole thing, just enough to get inside the left guard.

The big black plastic box thing you see is it. I think it is 2 bolts holding it in.

Looking at the engine bay, if you had extra vision, it would be under the battery.

Well its not all age related. Knock sensor and O2 sensor is boost related :P and the rest is just normal stuff.

So are you saying it comes on with the handbrake is off and turns off when the handbrake is on? Or is it on all the time? Someone played with the switch recently?

If you are scared of the speaker being too large that it might hit the window then you can use washers to avoid this.

Then you will need to make sure that the excursion of the cone doesnt hit the trim panel :)

If you do want to stick with the 6x9 style splits, Alpine used to have a set and they weren't expensive either.

Lol I didnt say anything about them :P Was talking non splits vs splits and there are more choices for splits in the normal round shape :P

Your car has tweeters. It is just that they are stuck together with the woofer ie not splits. When you get a set of splits you get 2 woofers, 2 tweeters.

Well I would advise against getting aftermarket 6x9 as they are designed for parcel shelves where the boot is their box. The door does not have enough volume and you probably will be disappointed. Further more they have huge magnets which will probably foul your windows. The toyota speakers are also usually held on by 3 screws so you will need to drill new holes anyways. So if you want to upgrade the fronts, make some mdf spacers and get some normal 6.5in splits in there as there will be lots more choices and sound better.

dude seriously that bug is annoying, lol (maybe just as annoying as my big pictures ? haha :P) i keep tapping my screen AND moving my mouse to make it move ahahha !

back to the topic: soo what about the rears, leave it as 6x9's ?

Hahaha :P Can't find the one that I had that works in the signiture area.

If you want quality, a nice set of 6.5in splits will kill 6x9s easily.

i had the same problem with my head unit :/

i gave up and just took the two wires and wrapped them together and covered it with electrical tape,

but other than that, yeah solder,

This is bad lol

LOL you really need to resize your pictures! Even my 2560x1440 monitor can't fit your picture without resizing!

anyhwoo, here is one i intend to use, (but only when low fuel light is on,)

get pulled over and ask why speeding,

i say: oh i was running out of fuel (as you can see with my low fuel light warning) , i wanna get to a petrol station asap in case i run out of fuel,

hehe :P dunnoe if it will work though,..

That won't work because you use more fuel going faster lol

Exactly. What if it is a trap to keep us for human flesh.

Anthony: was barely cool last night. Should have came and jumped into Anita's tailgate. Warm as hell in there

Michael: we have gone totally left field.

I think your "hardly cold" is like freezing for everyone else :P

Was going to come out but was really warm at home so decided against it. :P However if I knew you guys were going to hoppy's first I would have came.

Should be able to come out next week.

Changed my dash lights from blue to blue. Haha. Well now it is a deeper blue like in vw's and also changed the reversing lights to LEDs but they arent as blinding as andrews.

Most parts of the sound systems in the toyotas are made by Fujitsu ten (Eclipse). The upper models arent too bad for stock. Usually they aren't very powerful and 15w would be a good estimate, however I ran mine 80w rms and they were a lot better and they didnt blow up either.

Considering they should be dropping the box from the bottom anyway and hence they dont really need to muck around with the supercharger other than add fluids into the hidden reserviour lol.

i quite like the carbon wrapped roof man... sure, its not perfect, but it looks awesome!! :D

dont go for satin black... too boring.. :(

AHEM!

Bad luck mate. As Andrew said the excess is there with all insurance companies. Just need to find one that is cheap enough in terms of premiums and least amount of excess. However once you mod the car be prepared for heftier premiums as they know not a lot of options is out there for you. Gotta pay to play :).

Shannons is good if you are above 25 and have a nice driving record. Paying 900 a year and 500 excess with lots of major mods.
