  1. 1st car was a white 87 model mazda 323 sedan for 3 grand. Awsome little car and had only 30'000k's on it when i got it in 2005. Owned by old people. Had chrome hubcaps, 5% tint, chrome exhaust "tip", metal pedals (with no rubber one them) and a skull gearknob. Also had a fully sick tape player. I totalled it into a black euro accord.
  2. really we need to talk :) I'm one of your customers :)......maybe Ha hahahahah. Altech is one of my customers. So i guess that your maybe one of our end users. Lets just say i work for a company who is catching INGRAM MICRO in terms of sales and distibution of point of sale hardware. ;) . a Hint, We recently just became one of/the motorola's/symbols biggest dealers in Australia. BTW i am not in the sales side of things. Warehouse Manager.
  3. possibly me? I only went between epping rd to cox rd in north ryde about that time. Didn't spot you though.
  4. as much as i hate seeing people bragging about speeding on this forum ( and i am not saying you are). I think it is good that you have posted this so maybe other people might take note relize none of us are invincible. Hope it all works out for you. Please do share the details though
  5. Lol it wasn't a diss at you. The car is on a slant and looks stupid in stock form. the front apron hangs way to low and makes the back look really high. A bit like the sx corolla's. Hence why alot of people who own sx's put superlows in the rear and just lows in the front. It evens everything out. I dont mind the skirt to much either.
  6. use dorifto's technique. Back on my ae92 blacktop sx, i went through so many airboxes trying to do something like this. was an absolute pain to figure out. But now some smart people have worked out the best ways and i think doriftoes is one of the best.
  7. i think its good toyo. Although i do think maybe you should of made the front come up more and the back down. Or increased the length of the rear skirt. Looks like they have either locked up the front brakes and the backs trying to come over the top of the car, Or the engine weights 10 tonne.
  8. boy oh boy. Look at the dates lol. Over 2 years ago. No it is not the new sportivo is the short answer. Pretty sure that if they were planning that for this year. It would either be released or at least being advertised getting ready to be released.
  9. WOTBRA was rolling around on an sti a while ago. Made me lol. I would say eshays or eshay would be taken already. May aswell just get LAD as a number plate, if you want that much attention.
  10. I had the same problem a few weeks ago. I also have king spring lows I got a left sway bar link in from japan and replaced mine for another reason, but replacing it got rid of most of my steering wheel shaking. it cost me $165 and took my about 20 mins to put in (take off wheel, take old link out, screw new one in). Jump under the car and have a look. They might of busted it when replacing your springs. My car makes very very strange sounds when turning left and right and i thought the busted boot on my sway bar link was the problem. But it wasn't. It kinda sounds like a bit of sheet metal rubbing against my tire. I know its nothing touching the tire because i have not burnt any of the plastic under the guards. Anyone any idea's?
  11. last week relized my brake caliper dust cover on the NSF is missing a bolt and has nearly fallen off. **** DOGEY MECHANICS. I onyl noticed because i had to replace my front left sway bar link as the boot has ripped and oil was leaking out of it. so i shoved a new bolt into it that kinda fits. Ordered a new one from toyota and they need to import it in from japan :S. today: Tried to fit the new bolt and it is wrong. Found a new part number and will order it in tommrow from toyota. I shall take a picture of what my brake looks like so you can all have a laugh at how ****** it is. Also gave the car a wash today and installed a new kenwood double din dvd headunit into the missus' YRS yaris. Anyone want pics?
  12. My first car i had 5% on it and drove it on my red p's and didn't really ever has a problem. Next car i got 35% (legal limit) it was just to light. Now on the stivo i have 18% and its fine. I have never ever had a problem with the police with it and have always been able to see cars unless they have their headlights off at night. I think maybe because i lernt to drive with dark windows, i got used to it. I am also a fully qualified tinter aswell so maybe that might of helped. I relize that if a get pulled over i have to cop it on the chin and i accept that. But i think that all these dickheads with mirror tint and that chrome red/blue tint should be fined like no tommorow., It is a major distraction. The other reason why i have dark tint is so people can't see in at night and nick stuff like headunits ect. It is a security and health thing not a looks thing.
  13. at TAC that is a very good price. the most we could drop it down to was $275 and rrp is $395. You have got a very good price, but bear in mind you wont have warrenty as you are going for an illegal tint. If your going for illegal i personally would of gone 18%. i have never ever had a problem and have had 18% on 4 different cars over the last 5 years. I used to work at Tint a car in fivedock so thats how i know the ins and outs of TAC.
  14. Yeah i noticed that lol. my car used to be on the first page of google images but now it has been pushed back to page 2 when you search for (sportivo)(corolla sportivo)
  15. BTW, chick from Garbage is Shirley Manson :) but i dont think she is well known enough. I personally love the band and everything they have done but not to many people know them apart from their song "cherry lips"
  16. ill say, at first i was thinking it looked dodgy and with microsoft paint (ae82 pic). but now they look pretty mean. well done mate.

    MUGG SHOTS!

    that dude on the far right. Looks very familiar. He goto killara high by any chance if you know???
  18. But i see the lebanese flag put over the top of our country and having wogstralia written on it as being extreamly offensive, they dont (as seen on TT about a year ago). It all comes down to how everybody takes it. Things like this i find very offensive though NWS contains the F word. (i have linked to the photo as it contains a profanity and i dont wanna get in trouble for swearing) in short it says F off were full.
  19. You're right in that it will unlock as you get into the right range.. but With your car as it is, yes you do need to touch something for it to unlock, but what you are touching is the door handle. It's a bit impossible to open the door without the door handle, so in practise it makes no difference. Right? lol, if it is really windy the door might swing open, or if your on a hill. And yes i read it as cannibis aswell.
  20. My brother got the southern cross tattoo on his thigh but, he got it for all the wrong reasons. He got it as a statement about being so much better than other races because he is Aussie. I smacked him around a bit and told him to change his tune quick smart before the family dissownes him. Me on the other hand was going to get one on my shoulder for much the same reasons as cruzer. I am a proud australian but that doesn't mean i hate other races, i just feel lucky to be born here and cherish this country and all it has given me.
  21. Personally i dont think their is anything wrong with displaying the Aussie flag or getting tats of the southern cross ect. On australia day i had the flag drapped over the bonnet of my car for a while and didn't see it is a problem, until 2 middle eastern looking youths decided to spit at it. I am Australian and so are my parents and grandparents, but i never see "Aussie pride" or the southern cross as some kind of race symbol. I believe that other races see us displaying the flag as us being racist, hence why they spat at it. Interesting you should bring this up now as about a month ago, Triple J was having a discussion about race related violence that is now associated with the southern cross being seen as a gang sign. Personally i understand why people would see it as being racist. Cronulla riots just fuelled the fire that is growing. Big day out has now banned the flag from its events aswell. Singers using our national anthem is not illegal and having apparel with our countries flag or southern cross is also not illegal and i hope it never is. Oh and BTW, those shirts look awsome. They have a wicked style to them
  22. thats an azura as far as i am aware. dont know what the commonwealth games editions is though.
  23. hey mine was doing that. I came in here to find out aN ANSWER
