I havent had an issue with anything.. and my car is sitting on superlows.. you just have to drive smart and go really slowly over speedbumps..

I had the Hitachi PJ TX-100 home theatre projector...(LCD) sure its great for big screen viewing.. but they are no good as an every day replacement for a Plasma/LCD For maximum enjoyment you need a completely dark room.. you need both.. PLasma/lcd and a PJ there are alot more issues with projectors than big screen tvs as well Colour uniformity, Bulbs cost anywhere from 300-900.. and most only have an expected life of around 2000Hours.. Panel degredation is an issue as well DLP projectors can have rainbows and cause headaches for some people.. LCD doesnt have the blacks as black.. but still good none the less Projectors can't be switched on just for 5 mins to check the news etc... They need to be left on until they are completely warmed up (40mins - 1hour).. Then once switched off you cant turn them back on until they are completely cool (1-2hrs at least) Agreed that nothing can compare to a projector for a big screen movie.. but they are certainly no replacement for your every day viewing Once i get my own house it will certainly have a Home Theatre with a Projector.. but i will also have a plasma for everything else :) sorry to go on and on.. but it had to be said.. if anyones got any questions id be more than happy to answer :)

Is your car even a sportivo? or an ascent with rims and stickers? You dont have the bodykit or correct grille? and i cant see why anyone would want to remove the bodykit and put an ascent grille on?

there are no LEDS behind the sportivo dash (the speed, tacho area)... its an EL panel.. thats why the lighting looks so uniform across the entire thing.. and i wouldnt take it apart.. The replacement part costs an arm and a leg plus 3/4's of a kidney

mines been fine for over 15,000ks now... getting it replaced again is probably the only thing you can do

hahahha love the 3rd picture... such friendly competition

this man speaks the truth.. :) always go into first before reverse.. otherwise there is a good chance of Capt Crunch appearing p.s. Welcome and enjoy your stay

well after a lenghty conversation with a toymods fellow (inertia) it seems to have all been a massive miscommunication.. none of them knew we were coming which isnt suprising.. seeing as i got knocked back from joining their forums.. (trying again now.. still waiting for approval) I must admit we could have been more mingly.. but it was both sides.. so hopefully on another cruise we can mingle a little more and check out whats under the hoods of some of those beasts but for future cruises.. we dont appreciate been called rice.. the stivos have more than enough power to back up the aggressive stance Black jet ill go crusing LETS GO MAN

V6? camry sportivo.. not built in SA Only the Corolla Sportivos come from SA.. I must admit i havent had much trouble now... the clutch is the only ongoing saga in my cars life.. Ill upgrade it one day.. if i can afford too

we were shunned, and referred to as Rice.. so we took off on our own TOCA style cruise

yeh ive seen the post. sounds like a crazy nyt! sorry i missed it, but as usual was working.. Next time bro! this friday we meeting the toymods guys Hope the NSW toymods guys are friendlier than the VIC ones...

sorry for that outburst guys... just pisses me off the ignorance of some people.. its funny.. every guy who has been in a 2ZZ came and talked to us :) said they were bloody quick.. all the others i would bet have never seen the inside of a stivo.. other than that the day was fantastic.. some quality driving.. and entertaining radio convos quite simply put.. the Best cruise ive ever gone on with TOCA

well that confirms it.. apparently we are considered rice.. RICE?!? this picture was taken by one of them with the heading "and then the rice arrived" jealousy is a cruel cruel thing... so my car is rice? as i have lowered it? hmmm interesting heres a quick note DONT **** INVITE US NEXT TIME YOU STUCK UP ****ERS appologies to the guy in the Holden Nova.. you seemed ok and actually willing to talk to us this further confirms my thoughts "Dear MotoMan, We regret to inform you that your application to the Toymods Forums was unsuccessful. " WOOHOO :) like id want to be a member with those ****ers

how about a 4wd 2.4lt supercharged AZ series engine

you will have to bring them around to my house so i can see what they look like on my car :)

Did you like the video Black jet :P

we all had different front ends :) spec add me to MSN and send the video to me.. rollaman@hotmail.com

Come on... post a nice picture :P

How about our cruise back? Cruise Video (800kbs)

Well i think this picture best describes our day... We ended up crusing by ourselves after feeling like honda owners at a toyota convention

Thanks for the info guys. Ive called my dealer and told him its way too much. He said he will try and talk to his boss and get the price lower or thow in some extra's. hahaha the ol' ill talk to my boss routine.. this shifts the blame to his boss.. so it looks as if the guy you're dealing with is busting his balls for you.. He will ring you back and tell you they can do it for the agreed price, plus some sort of extra.. PUSH FOR MORE! tell him you have found it cheaper elsewhere.. or go elsewhere and tell them the price you have.. get another toyota to beat the original one

I know how to get to the toymods meet from the ring maccas :) ill be there at 8am sharp :)
