I've had an 1992 RV6 since new. Which my dad bought, still as new, only 130,000kms. We've never had real dramas with it - except refurbishing the aircon compressor, and it still blows ice on a 40deg day. You may also notice that the rear suspension tends to sag in all these cars, but aftermarket struts fixed this for us. Has never overheated. Top car! Biggest downfall is its heavy on juice around town, but thats to be expected when compared to newer cars. Have never had a Import one so cant really make a comparison. I think the key to getting one of these as with any car is to get one with a decent service history. L.

hey dude, i install mine at profix. $250 inc wheel alignment. u can ask them to bargain it down. Hey Jahat... which profix was this you went to? i'm interested in lowering mine too. Cheers, L.

At the moment I've taken the panel filter out... but first off I had it in, just in case there was debris inside it from making it. But even if you run with the panel filter in its still got to be a bit better than the tiny stock HAI. Thats a good point about the hole in the bottom of the airbox too , Youre talking about the little vacuum actuated flap arent you? i forgot about that... hmmm <_< Whats that actually used for?? obviously full TRD etc CAI dont have it.. might it cause some issues blocking it? maybe I'll just have to put some filter material over it or something.. L.

Yeah not too long at all really... the 75mm pipe is the perfect size, it fits perfectly under the fuse box.. the whole things pretty quick and easy to make its just a bit of trial an error to get the angles and lengths right.. but it works a treat! L.

Heres a few pics of my install.. this pipe work gives a great growling noise! :D L.

Just built myself a cheap as CAI today!!! And love the induction noise!! Phoooowoar!! Cost: Less than $20* Time to build - 6 hours + few beers :D What i used, K&N pod (*already had) 30cm of 75mm PVC pipe, 2x75mm 45deg bends, 1x75mm 90deg bend Gasket Silicone (*already had) 100mm long bit of 3mm Aluminium Flat bar (*already had) Black paint (*already had) This isnt a true CAI such as a TRD one etc but my GF said i couldnt spend anymore money on the car so i improvised.... and cant complain for $20.. The result is a completely stock and extremely slealthy install... :D What I did... Modified the bottom section of the original stock intake box with a bit of 75mm pipe coming out of it and then routed some piping down to hang the Pod down behind the Fog light, and then removed the panel filter from the intake box, not as efficient as a straight linking pipe but I can definitely feel and hear the results! Haven't downloaded the pics but I can put some up if anyones interested. L.

yup press button till window gets to bottom...keep holding for 2 seconds. pull button to push window up....kepp holding for 2 seconds once at top.. Problem SOLVERED!! Hehe .. wicked! Thanks Danthuyer! problemo fixxxedd! Cheers! L.

Hey Guys, I've only just recently picked up my Stivo and become active on this forum.. I'm potentially going to use Cornes Toyota on Unley Road to service mine cause thats where I bought it .... But my parents etc have been getting theirs serviced at the Stephens Tce Toyota service centre for the last 5years with no probs at all, quite a friendly bunch. I'd be keen to meet up with a few others if we meet up somewhere near the city sometime .. so thats 1!! :) L.

Just thought I should clarify ..... before bad things happen.. I'm no longer looking for some foggies now, my dad has changed his mind... again.. so i have to pull out.. sorry everyone. Cheers, Luke..

Thanks for the regular updates M_M!! Cant wait!! Cheers! L.

my 215 40 18s put my speedo out by about 3% so its very managable. 9mm bigger on the overall diameter compared to the tyres on my 16s previously (620mm vs 629mm i think from memory. ) L.

phew!!! Lucky i didnt buy those rims CORZZA .. they were the other wheels i was going to get... nice nice!! youre on king lows yeah? do you know your offset? L.

I use Autoglym products.. specifically their Leather Care cream and their Vinyl and Rubber care products with a microfibre cloth... results are awesome.. I used to use armourall for everything in my last car but changed cause i found it too oily.. What do you all use for the inside of your tinted windows? I would use windex, but i seem to remember reading on the back not to use it on tinted windows? L.

I may potentially be in for some too, my dad was looking for some, depending on the final price. These are for preface lifts yeah .. just wondering how come your looking to get some Xploshun, from your avatar i'd swear you were a facelift L.

I've just paid, PM sent with address etc although its not showing up in my sent box... can you confirm you got it please :D Cheers, L.
