Yep! that's it hahaha Where'd u get that pic from?

I've seen a done up wagon in perth! it's a turquoise coloured one with full sportivo bodykit including the sports grille. The rear skirt was a bit different (had some grille mesh in the middle, but dunno if it was fake mesh) and it was being driven by an old woman. I was chasing her down the freeway, and she had her foot on the gas the whole way!

The new focus is sick :D They've got the nicest gear knob too! I tried, but couldn't undo the thing when the motor show was in town :P

is this with our version corolla or the US version?

imagine if the front was one whole light, LIKE CYCLOPS :D :D :D *makes some laser noises*

not to be picky...but u bought an ASCENT lets just keep ourselves far away from hyundais

dude, to be honest, im fed up with the rain. the first sign of drizzle and ppl on the freeway slow down to 80km. not to mention the whole "easily lost traction". if someone tries to drag me in the rain i dont even think about it cos i know i wont win, even if the car's a little barina as the old song goes, rain rain go away! come again another day (when im sick of the dry weather) (which is HIGHLY unlikely) :P mintos - if it rains tomorrow i promise ill try get some rpm readings for ya ;) but from memory my car handles just like u described urs does, so i know exactly what ur talkin about.

perths been raining a fair bit lately and the wind is killin me! down the freeway, and my cars gotta mind of its own.

mintos, ive gotta stock 1zz and i also lose traction in the rain very easily. when i first got the car it had toyo tires (which i think were 175 wide) and i had to take corners so slowly because id just get wheelspin out of the corner. anyway, i replaced my tires with kelly ritmo's 195 wide and the handling was much better, but wheelspin was still there. i can go around corners a faster, but it also depends on how u drive. i find u have to have a very steady foot and watch the revs carefully (or listen to the engine). i still cant launch fast in the wet. i always find every other car taking off faster than me... :( one thing i always wondered is whether lowering it would help???

HAHAHAHAHA must be one of those concept vehicles :D :P :D :P

hey all, i was surfing the net and came across an advert... http://www.mitsubishicars.com/06eclipse/ check out the specs of the GT version! http://www.mitsubishicars.com/MMSA/jsp/ecl...tures_specs.jsp 263HP, 260lb-ft...whats that in aussie terms??? wheres my calculator ill leave all the technical talk to the rest of u guys, but let me just say ive been lookin forward to this car goin into production for a long time and im really pleased with how it looks. i reckon mitsubishi's gone in the right direction. theyve updated a model with a wicked new look, but managed to still keep the features that make the eclipse the eclipse. personally, im a big fan of the diamond nose, but i know theres a lot of ppl that hate it. i really hope the eclipse does well in the states. seems to be more than a simple sports car now and more classy like an audi tt. the interior looks all leathery :D

did u guys check out the bodykits theyve got!?!?! http://www.trd.com.sg/TRD_Image_Gallery/im...0AeroBumper.jpg bloody awesome! the lights look like projector style lights, but i love how the grille's more "agressive."

i can never shift into reverse properly in any situation lol i always give it a try just to see if itll happen, but it never does. it does what paradox says and u can tell by the angle of the shifter that its not fully in reverse. slippin in to 1st gear first always does the trick :)

OMG my ascent does that too and it annoys the crap out of me. ive told the dealership numerous times about the suspension (i think its the rear) and they said theres nothing wrong with it. i was starting to think it was just me hearing things...

xoom - pm sent mate managed to get a copy of the fin review from work today :)

u can get a nice s2000 for under $42k. i like the interior and its n/a too! some ppl find it too small though. for $42,000 man theres so many choices!

Sounds like a nice clean setup and congrats on the issue-free installation (with the exception of the floor mat) :P Good work!

i think if u take out the rear seats u should find a few bolts contacting the metal chassis. im pretty sure thats where my ground was connected to. and my amps bolted on the rear seats, so the floppy cardboard thing in the boot sorta protects it.

i have a personal hate for magna drivers haha. i absolutely hate ppl who stick to the right and arent overtaking anyone. it drives me nuts, especially when u overtake them using the left lane and they still stay in the right. for some odd reason though everytime i follow a magna whos driving slow and go to overtake em they speed up as if they dont like ppl overtaking them and end up sticking in my blind spot, which forces ya to have to drive even faster. theyre always middle-aged business guys too...

yeh i think ideally u'd want a heavy one that sits high. having it higher definitely makes it easier to shift (but lowers cooler ;)) and the extra weight means u use less force. ive gotta round autotecnica one, which is so nice to shift with. its aluminium which means it doesnt "grind" against u so ur hand just rolls around it really smoothly. i luv it.

I dunno about u guys, but under those conditions i'd luuuuuv a mazda3 hatch. i reckon theyre so sexy :D although, that elise ideas not that bad either

hmmm its strange cos today its working for me.... didnt do a spyware or virus check either, but how does spyware stop the page from loading? it was only those sites as well, everything else was fine
