    The dealer was adamant that the bonnet and bootlids were carbon fibre, and he seemed to know what he was talking about. Maybe they pass regulations becuase of a special construction or the positioning...?

    On the topic of carbon fibre bonnets, from what i understand they are illegal due to the reaction of the material on impact, it particular with pedestrians. However, i recall a lexus dealer telling me that the new IS250's and GS430's both have carbon fibre bonnets and boot lids. How is this legal????
  4. After a bad experience with the standard alarm i upgrade to an Autowatch 3 point immobilising system ($450ish). The only fault in the system is it requires an extra remote, it honestly doesnt concern me but it does for others.
  5. A run on a dyno will simply give you a read out of power produced by the motor. Best option for price is to wait until theres a dyno day and it shouldnt work out to be any more than $50, although depends on how many runs you choose to do. You can get them done at most big well know workshops; Croydon Racing Development etc.
  6. JDM Yard's EG civic with a k20a does a 12.3 quarter mile, thats scary! Civics are quicker because they are a lot lighter than the corolla!
  7. Does anyone have a sound clip of the ces exhuast?
  8. From what ive learnt through my dealings with Castle Hill Toyota is the majority of the staff in the parts department dont know what there talking about, and they are too stubborn to admit an error. But yes, ive seen many facelift corollas with the rear skirt.
  9. Homer: Let us celebrate our new arrangement with the adding of chocolate to milk.
  10. You can pretty much get them at most shops that source parts. Alternatively http://www.greenline.jp/catalogue/bblist.p...nd=TRUST#gauges - sell them along with an array of gauges.
  11. That little kid will have ultimate bragging rights!!! Kicking and hitting the treasurer!!!

  16. Spotted a Black Levin on Oxford Street Paddingon around 2:30. Completely blacked out pre-facelift levin, looked awesome and super stealth Think the number plate was AWS91E*, he a member on here?
  17. Ive noticed in a few newspaper and magazine articles that they are quoting it to be priced between $40 - $45k. Either way id take it over anything else out there right now
  18. Spotted 'RUNX' on Sussex street toady at 11:00am, love those wheels so much!!
  19. Teins arent over $2000, and are cheaper than the Cusco Zero-2's. Sets can be bought for $1600 roughly.
  20. I have a DC2R recaro going into my sportivo in few weeks, just waiting on a rail. I find the sportivo seat to be unsupportive, hence the recaro. As far as i know dc2r recaros are both adr complianced and approved.
