Buri_ZR6

its still always good to see exact speed lol they did it so that people like you dont look at it every 2 seconds and crash :D

nice but not my cup of tea :D

ive got the zr6 just for the badge j/k. i love the total package. im glad i didnt have to settle for the sx6.

another sportivo owner. wiihuuu :P congrats man.

Well IMO its kinda a wrong comparo, TRD would be the HSV equivilent, so on a price level it should be compared to a Clubsport R8 in the 60K price category. In that case I would take the R8... i would too if compared to the r8 but if the aurion was awd, trd all the way.

oh man, they look sweet!! 35k could be for a dealer model, is there a speaker upgrade option for the aurion zr6???

without a supercharger or turbocharger forcing extra air under pressure into the engine increasing the air flow capacity to the engine will do nothing at all. The vac butterfly is for warm air on cold start and works well without causing enough of a restriction to worry about with any non supercharged engine anyway. this whole CAI business is an aftermarket accessory rip off using dubious science and dodgy claims Are you sure this is just for warm air? I have worked on a couple of V6's in the past, and discovered on one of them in particular, it has a total of 3 butterfly valves in the intake. One for the main throttle, and another 2 at different places in the intake which open at different RPM points. The idea was called "VLIRS" I think it was, meaning Variable Length Intake Resonance System, which relied on intake air resonance to improve torque at certain points... and this was on a 1.8L V6 (Mazda Eunos 30x). If you accelerated hard, at about 4000 RPM there would be a sudden huge boost in performance, where it would then fly up to about 6000 RPM, where it would open the second valve, which would then give another huge boost up to 7000 RPM... it was incredible! I wouldn't be entirely surprised if this system exists in the Aurion, as a number of modern V6 engines have this feature. it could work with the aurion but whos got the balls to try it :)

congrats. looks awesome. it will look even better when its lowered :) btw arent your lights looking too bluish for 4750k? or is it just the photos? i thought they dont appear bluish till 8000k

woww that is awesome. looks so much better than mine. love the 2 tone. the car is also blue right?

nice organization at the back. doesnt take boot space either and looks stockish :)

A bit confusion - the book says 7500 and 15000 - my sticker (after the first free service) says 10000 and my fleet manager also say 10000. Anyway I will book mine for 10000 to see the "real world". BH mine has had its 10000km service last week. ive got to say the car is a bit more smoother and response is quicker which is a good sign and if you drive normally the car doesnt pass 2000 revs. before the service it use to be near 2000 or just a little over between gear changes but now the engine is even more relaxed. now i can rev it freely.

yea, i believe you can do so with this way easy. just say you have crashed by someone from the back and need a new back bumper. If u r serious enough into buying 1, i am happy to ask my panel beater for price.(looks like fun) an Aurion with TRD aurion bumper.. <_< interesting... Yeah would be interested, the TRD front is much more aggressive and would look sweet with 20's and lowered a bit. I dont think it says TRD anywhere on the bar...? zr6 sportivo kit imo looks better than the trd kit. gold zr6 with 19 black trds would look better than a normal trd aurion imo. i only like the rear diffuser of trd and thats pathetic as well as u can see the exhaust inside lol.

i waited till 5000kms to break in. now she got out of her 10000kms service with thicker oil and new filter and now she runs like a beast.

i cant believe what im reading. bluesx6 i can understand how ****** you must be feeling about this but i believe the way your pushing it, your going to get what you want. dont take your foot off the accelerator till you get your replacement. sooner or later, i believe you will get the good news :)

thanks for the information :)

mines like a sex machine. everytime i turn it on, it makes my girlfriends hair go back and i feel like ...n her there. it must be because you go up to 240 all the time and your such a good driver :P thanks for the compliments buddy but only if i lived in germany then i would speed all day like you. :P

hahaha you guys kill me. atleast the thread becomes interesting. i would join but im not qualified. if i ever go track driving one day, you guys are all welcome. i'll teach you guys a little :P tomorrow im taking my zr6 to her first service. thicker oil, check on the pads and time for premium fuel :)

thats what the blokes do to their peugeot 206s and done up saxos in europe. do sounds nuts lol. plus it doesnt cost anything :P

AAMI. No questions asked. I told them i lowered it and added mags and tint. They said ok. As a matter of fact i got my renewal yesterday. Insured for 40k. $813. Age might be an issue if you are younger than 25. I'm old 33. Im 21 insured my car for $50,000 and im paying $671 With AAMI too thats really good. im 19 atm turning 20 this month and i pay 895 yearly for the zr6 2007. which is still good compared to my age. when you call them up to say you have done modifications to the car, do they ask for receipts of the wheels and tyres etc?

Suspension was $550. Ride is smooth, and controlled. I was also worried about having too harsh a ride, but even with 18's and lowered suspension the ride is not to harsh or stiff. Wheels from memory were around $2100. Tyres are 235x40x18. Wheels are 18x8 looks really nice. congrats

the lowering of the car is perfect for my liking.

what a bunch of ****3rs. bluesx6 i hope you get it replaced and be happy like us.

mine also does it. but its not loud. maybe its a safety feature. it shouldnt be loud. on mine you can only hear it if you concentrate on the car making any noises on take off.

the place for that sort of action is the track. the car will see 230 240 easy so no need to risk it and drive ridicilously dangerously in australian roadds when there are tracks 30 mins away for the cost of a family meal
