There is a price to pay for all this power.
Every start up = $1 Petrol
Every drag race you do = $10 Petrol
Every speed ticket you get = over $210
Seeing a Turbo Territory Owner having a heart attack at the fuel pump = Priceless
The official figure of fuel consumption of the NA Territory is 12L/100km but reporter tested at 17L/100km of mostly "urban" driving. I wonder what sort of MPG you get when you have a heavy right foot for a Turbo one.
BTW if my bank does not decrease its amount upon withdrawl:idea:... I will go for one, it has ample boot space and rear seat space!

Guys quick question,
Is the dyno set up only for front wheel cars?
Any Rear wheel vehicles?
If so i;ve got another 2 cars that are very interested! :)
Any 2wd vehicle fwd or rwd
I will get 0kW if I have the car with front in first...
Perheps I will try to reverse back in to the dyno to get some kWs

So last Sunday of Feb right....
:o I am not going to be more powerful than the last dyno at 39 degree right???
Hopefully not as hot LOL

I'll be in this too as long as it's not March 10-12th as I will be up at Winton. Yay for track days!
See what the new MX5 puts out at the wheels. Will be interesting
Thought our track day in 20th March.. I cannot mistaken that I am sure....
I would not expect to dyno too greatly this time for some reason... my plug may not run as good as it were new...

Me and Mrs Taka will be going to spectate, and me taking lots and lots of high resy photos.
I will try out as a photographer with my Digi SLR :)
Mainly I want to let Mrs Taka to see Stu's car

Since track days have now become a real hobby (more exciting than model planes) I want to be able to afford to track my car more often and the new mx5 fits that bill perfectly so I decided what the hell I'll do it!
I have to confess that I am the soul that is responsible for this man's addition ....
I am guilty as charged. Hopefully Danielle not hating me for that
I am not drag star (I think something is wrong with that statement on this thread ) Do you need a "less than semi-professional" photographer? I am in for that B) .

I will most likely turn up in the arvo unless raining.
Training for Around the Bay on the 16th. :P
Oh I will write a "leave form" and put it on the bedroom table on the other side of the bed.

Hopefully not late October :P
Stu and I will be driving up to Goulburn for a Wakefield day of the RX-8 Nationals on the 21-23.
It should be fun to see the Qlder disappearing in the rear mirror.

Stu! I am here because I AM a TOYOTA owner TOO! I drive a Camry V6 normally and the 8 is my weekend car
For some here it may interest you that Taka has been to 'destination X' and through the top part you cannot keep with him, he's crazy through those twists! Yes Bill more than you!OK count me in for the Dyno day too!
I am game enough to turn the DSC off... track time pays occasionally.
Where does the ILIVfor6 come from????
Are you going to dyno Danielle's SP23 too?! :o
I am really tempted to bring my 98' Camry V6 Auto in the dyno too LOL B) . It gives 141kW@5000rpm, but I never feel it LOL :D
Welcome Takahashi (Another Initial d fanhuh?), Glad to have you come along.
Well I was, now they don't show Ryouske driving than it is no point watching

New Kluger
in Kluger Club

Wow.. I wish I had the same deal. I should have gone for the fleet company....
Anyway, I am waiting for mine to come in Dec. Company are paying for it in a way, but I had to work hard for it. (So boss, get my drift????) haha.
I think I am going for a White one, although currently the lockin one is Graphite. It is coming down to this 2 choices anyway. I also went for the Grande - suck in by those gadgets. Do you think Grande worth it?
Do you know that Kluger looks like Vanguard in Japan (EDIT: I double check there is nothing in common :(), and you may be able to buy Japan parts for it....
