That works for me (used to have Greenstuffs, which would make the wheels black within 2 weeks), but the downside is that the polished rim (which acts as a contrast) would also go black and make the wheels look smaller than they really were (and plainer too).

Can I have the drugs you're smoking? 3SGTEs are a pain to get converted to RWD, and not cheap either. If you want 2.0L turbo then an SR20 would be much easier and most likely cheaper than a 3S (unless you got a BEAMS and turbo'd that instead). SR20 ftl though, and 3S's arent *that* expensive :P The engines themselves aren't super expensive, but the conversion is, and with a lot of hassle and customising as the GTE was never designed for north-south. Trust me, I've seen plenty of people investigate the option on Toymods, and most don't get far when they realise the real scope of the problems.

Once upon a time there was this little literary device called sarcasm.....

Because he's a troll. Trolls tend to insult people or act stupidly in order to get people to react.

All the worst.....

Ahh, bogan forums, everything makes sense now. So when your mother slept with your brother/father, they obviously didn't use protection then.

It's not like you could put some of the money you're saving by getting the ATX towards getting aftermarket or option mags.....

I didnt know that there was a diffrence, but I was thinking of SRI. BTW what is the diffrence? A cold air intake is simply any sort of intake that draws in, surprise surprise, cold air. An SRI is a Short Ram Intake, and despite the name has no ram-air effect whatsoever - it is basically a pod filter sitting in the engine bay with a short pipe to the throttle body. It generally equals hektik induction noise but negligible performance benefit over a stock system. Here is an example of a pod filter being used in a CAI setup: Pod filter (cicled in red as it is a bit hard to see) sitting inside the front guard between the wheel and the front bumper - splashguard is converted into a make-shift scoop And the piping in the engine bay - makes use of the hole in the front guard where the intake resonator normally sits, removes all the nasty bends and squishes of the stock intake.

I think the OP needs to clarify whether they are talking about pod filters in general or SRIs in particular - you can mount a pod filter in a position that receives the same air as a CAI without any of the drawbacks of the SRI. Some people just seem to assume pod = SRI, it doesn't always.

Electric power steering =/= drive-by-wire. There is still a physical connection between the steering-wheel and the steering rack, just the power assistance is electric rather than hydraulic. that's nice, but he wasn't asking about how the steering works? I know, I was correcting the incorrect information that you supplied.

Not quite Brisbane to Sydney, but I managed to get Ballina to Newcastle in just on 40L when I came back from the Gold Coast earlier this year - that was with 2 people in the front, 2 front seats in the rear seat and the boot full of luggage and souvenirs, and hardly at a "fuel-economy-challenge" pace too.

As if you can go faster than 30km/h along there with all the traffic and pot-holes anyway.....

If you want to be technical about it, most Commodores aren't actually a Commodore. Holden for a long period of time never actually had a name for the whole model range, just a code (HQ, VB etc), with the base or common model often becoming the "generic" name (ie Kingswood, Commodore). Before Kingswood you had the Standard, Special and Premier, for the Kingswood you had Belmont, Kingswood and Premier, for the Commodore (VK onwards) Holden were less serious with the naming style but you still have Acclaim, Berlina and Calais as standalone names (for instance you don't see a Commodore badge on the back of a Calais, it literally is a Holden Calais). And to make this relevant, you could apply the same naming scheme to the Camry/Aurion :P They share the same chassis code, under the skin they are essentially the same car sans engines and cosmetic head/tail-lights. If you think of it as the Toyota XV (using the chassis code as a model code like Holden), then your 4-cylinder models are Camry Alise/Ateva etc and your 6-cylinder models are Aurion ATX/Sportivo etc

Except Toyota have had a RWD 4-door six-cylinder car for the last 30 years (and still do), it's called the MarkII/Chaser (called the Mark X now). We got it in the 70s and 80s as the Cressida.

It's was the N/A car with the most specific power, which is power/L or the like, although that is disputed against the R13B from the limited edition Suzuki Cultus (ie Swift). It's been beaten since by the Ferrari 458 anyway.

Bottom heads? This some weird upside-down motor I've never heard of? :P

Do you mean fastest 0-100? 0-400m? 0-1000m? Highest top speed? You're very ambiguous in your question, and then in response you list the largest which is entirely in 2+ tonne Yank-tank trucks and the second-largest which was in a middle-of-the-range Porsche.

The N97 mini (which replaces the N97) supposedly fixed most of the hardware problems. Cara has one, no real complaints although I can't stand a resistive touch-screen, the keyboard is handy though and a fair few widgets. Personally I've got a Samsung i8910 Omnia HD which is awesome at several things (photos, videos etc, nice big capacitative touch-screen too) but Symbian is getting a little old, there aren't as many widgets for it as there are for the N97, and my fingers are slightly too big for the on-screen keyboard. Nice alternative to the iPhone though. N900 would be a good one to look at too although I think only Optus have it

where from? A portal company called Amayama, they're one of the sponsors on Toymods.

Ordered the genuine front spoiler extension for my FXGT front bar, $163 delivered to my door from Japan.

TRD Aurion has a TWIN-SCREW blower, probably where they are getting confused

Auto? Are you in Drive? Overdrive on/off? Make any difference if you stick it in L/2?
