  1. New tyres this arvo! Hoorah!
  2. I think everyone that's put something in here has mentioned the XR6T would dominate. :) Ohhh ohhh ohhh yeah!!! YEAH!!! Well I'm getting my dad's jumbo jet Dave! It's faster!!! Lmfao
  3. Zidane is an idiot. He's always been like that. A firey ahole french guy with nothing to prove. Good riddance to him. Next time I see him I'll bludgeon him to death with a baguette (he'll probably headbutt me though).
  4. ? I aint a dreamer, I've done it. Several times. XR6 (my uncle has a BF ute 190kw, and even then he said it annoys him with the power curve. He's too used to his 351 tho haha.) XR6 Turbo though? Man, what can I say...you have one, and the world is your oyster in one. Mods give you so many gains etc and power to weight would be fantastic in the ute. How envious :( Better still, like I said, look at the F6. Crazy. Prodrive have changed the face of Ford that's for sure.
  5. Sorry we've all been and done that. I've taken on many XR6's with differing drivers and done them all. They are quick, but they are also heavy. Power to weight comes into play. The 2zz pulls up top as well don't forget. And a civic? Come on. What mods are done to the civic. Or more so, who was driving the sportivo? The only XR6 that gives me a run for my money and decimates me from 80km/h onwards is the XR6 Turbo. I'm not even going to call the XR6 an XR6, it's just a BA/BAII and BF falcon with a kit and some extras. PS: I have a big soft spot for Honda's, don't think I don't like them lol
  6. Go Pakistan They are ranked last in the world I just found out.
  7. Hello Karen! Pete, this new corolla is the most disgusting thing I've seen. Ew. If I sell the sportivo later I'll be buying a Type S. Bluuurg.
  8. Ohhhhhhhhh boy hahahahaha. I'll tell you on msn. Not for ladies to read lol.
  9. IS200's have a L6 2.0L which is really lacking balls to be honest. BUT wow....what a car to sit in. The moving louge room. add a kit and some 19's, lower it....BAM Tony Soprano style.
  10. do you know what a blurter is pete? hmm?
  11. methinks it's time for a blurter change
  12. My fractured ribbbbbb OOOooooOOOooooOOOOoooOOOooooooooo My frac....tuuuuureddddd rib
  13. Race him and see Steve. You'll be suprised. Not one XR6 has managed to dust me yet. I've always dusted them (sometimes I haven't let up, kept shifting @ 8,000rpm until I hit 4th just to rub it in more lol). XR6 Turbo? Like I said, I managed to at least keep up with one sort of and gain some browny points from that. If your mate is really serious, tell him to test drive an F6 Typhoon (sedan) or F6 Tornado (Ute). 270kw w. 550nm of torque (the highest amount of torque to come out of an Australian production car EVER).
  14. Oh no. Nooo no no no no no. NOT Michael Bay!!!! He's the guy that farked up Pearl Harbour!!! http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=4tw-K9ZePzo...=Team%20America
  15. He's wants an auto. Let him have one. We didn't call Beckham a fag for having that haircut did we? (ok well some of us did). IS200's are cheap now.
  16. I HAVE PUT A DEPOSIT DOWN ON 1!!! $42,695 driveaway with paint protect, tints, mats and 6 year 200,000km warranty. Its going to be RED, wanted Silver but the MPS3 doesn't come in that colour. will lets u all know what the car felt like to me in my test drive, but this thing goes!!! i am obviously very happy! :D save up for coilovers, strut bar, BOV and 19's then man hahahahahaha nah man this is going to be a daily driver no need for coilies.. it comes with a strut tower member brace already.. and with BOV i did think of that, wanted a Blitz dual stage one but they might void my warranty for this!! wheels i think 18s are too big already, tyres will probably cost me a fortune to replace. But here is the rundown on the car, it has plenty of torque from 2000rpm where the turbo is already spooling hard, it pulls really hard even in 4th at 40km/h. You won't ever need to go past 1/4 throttle opening to get this thing to overtake in the city, i was actually taken aback when i first jumped in and gassed it in 2nd! it was lunging forward at an unbelievable pace riht from the word go and i was in a 60zone. The front wheels did lose traction in 1st gear once but it was only momentarily with some torque steer, nothing tyre smoking, and in 2nd gear i could still feel the torque steer and all the elelctronics trying to tame the front wheels. It actually felt very wierd as the Stivo never had this, if the front wheels spun in LIFT, it spun! It was more of controlling the throttle but in the Mazda3 MPS its very different. I have to admit it will take some getting used to. The brakes are super responsive though, lunged forward hard a few times when i attempted to heel-toe :P the clutch was grabbing very high up in the clutch travel which i didn't like, and the pedal felt softer than my Stivo's which is a concern considering it has so much power and torque to handle. The steering is heavier which i really like, no chance to test out the handling capabilities which was a bit of a shame. The interior quality and design was fantastic, i absolutely loved te beautiful seats like rollamods mentioned, and it oozes more quality than a WRX. The zero-counter pointers for the tacho and speedo were great and speedo does read 280km/h (claimed top speed of 250km/h)! Gearshift was a little less notchy than the Stivo's and lighter to shift but felt that it wasn't as accurate into the gates as compared to the Stivo's. Only gripe is there is less room compared to the rolla althought its a 5 door hatch but it has so many things that the Stivo hasn't got like a middle armrest for the rear seat, more cup holders, telescopic tilt and reach steering column, cruise/audio controls on the steering wheel, 6 airbags standard, Traction control and DSC (dynamic stability control), LSD, and of course the engine is so tractable and easy to drive. I really think Mazda has done a great job with this MPS version of Mazda 3, its like the formula Toyota used to create the Sportivo version of our Corollas :) Well done man ;)
  17. To be honest, yeah I guess! I'm just keen to move on. If I meet someone, I meet somone. Thats the way brother rob! Hehehe. 'Invite' your SA friends over then ;)
  18. Straight 6. 4.0L DOHC 180kw @ the fly. I tend to agree with Jason. However I've dusted many BA XR6's (with the owners very pi55ed off). If you know how to use the 2zz's power band properly you can actually embarass quite a few cars. I managed to at least 'keep up' (to an extent) with a chick in an XR6 Turbo even. I ended up talking to her when we parked in the shops. "Oh I see, you have an exhaust etc" she said. "That's stock :D" I said haha. Obviously the XR6T would rip me a new one, she knows that haha. It's just nice to 'impress' people with what you have (i.e: a 1.8L 4). I even managed to impress a guy in a 350z once as well. As soon as a corner came though? He ate me. Wish I had my coilovers back then lmao
  19. I care because to some people Heritage means a lot. That's just me though.
