Mello

the merc, slr55 is also made there.

which explains the low sales figures (kidding) however it can also be explained by its very pricy tag.

honestly speaking you should wait till the new models are out, then the dealers will have price drops on their old stock which you can still bargain off them *more*. doesnt matter if its sportivo or levin or whatever made whereever when you get a bargain deal off a dealer your driving the car in your mind.

in my opinion after driving both i'd buy neither.

i might take on the job of organising in march / april *IF* nobody has done so by then.

currently working fulltime 7 days a week

the operative word in that statement was *might* (so dont force it onto me just yet)

nice pics guys, unfortunately i couldnt make it, as i got food poisoning from safeway ^^;

i would have expected their food to be safe.

just a note to anyone that has uploaded pictures could you please blur out your number plates,

we have had incidences of the boys in blue patroling this forum and well obviously you'll be on the "look out list"

bcoze his mum told him to stay at cydus

i may be able to make it, 50/50.

Get a real car .. a car that you do not need to modify

i.e. Porsche 911, SL55 etc. etc.

So start saving !!!

simple, *YOUTUBE*

search up your car / same model etc...

and watch the vids where it gets owned either on drags / tracks or whatever.

You will lose interest in your vehicle like cold turkey

then go buy a motorcycle.

I reckon Bangn's idea is great to have it at pro-tek

It's a fairly central location, both sides of melbourne can get too.

Nothing wrong with NT though its only 5 minutes from my place.

but it is a bit hard to change cars on the dyno whereas

Pro-tek have a 4 wheel dyno in the ground which enables more people to come.

Not only that the cars can be change easily and quickly which will probably allow more cars

doing runs.

"i vote bangn"

here is the website

http://www.protekautomotive.com.au/

the front looks like a mix of a suzuki swift and a citroen c2

the body looks like a cadilac

is it fwd or rwd?

i pressume since it doesnt say anything about that that its fwd

so this is the next pulsar ^^; any takers?

LOL, please add yourselves to the list, i cant keep doing it all the time :D

i spotted 3 people yesterday that are on tocau (i mean on tuesday evening/night)

first kaze_stivo aka steve at cydus.

went to some business thingy majigy on swanston st and spotted E-gene and his ride

outside his cafe

then on my way back to la porchetta north melbourne spotted a levin sprinter approx year 1986

in panda colours looks like your ride jdm Yo!

they are probably just getting rid of stock. Sometimes people order things and never show to pick them up. hence backlog in stock.

i dont mean to offend you when i say this but..

who do you know that upgrades their camry sportivo muffler?

i think your the fair few.

remember to also

change the radiator cap when the car is cold, or you will get a nasty shock/ maybe even a few burns

Vote for Mello

I am capable of being 100% impartial (unlike some mods here) ^^

I will bring justice back to the forums in a fair and unbiased manner

allowing for most people to speak their mind.

"i will bring troops back from iraq...."

"i will invest in nuclear power"

"i will invest in water refinery plants"

Just kidding

Vote Mello

Any performance workshop can install it for you if you dont want to.

Where abouts are you? i can recommend a few places on the west side of melb.
