  1. Damn, that seems like such a little thing but I swear it's exactly the kind of little thing that would give me the shits after weeks of use.
  2. Best theft deterrent ever. Just chuck your wheel underneath your seat when you leave your car.. If I didn't have an airbag wheel I'd get one ASAP.
  3. What a crap morning for traffic but good morning for spotting. Spotted: wilch in his real sports car, the Lancer. Primordial 2 cars behind wilch shif_tea on Castle Hill Road abit later.
  4. Okay I should've cleared up my posts... the noise is due to the aftermarket BOV (what I meant), not coming directly from it
  5. You can't - the flutter noise comes from the BOV.
  6. You won't be able to.
  7. The exit of the BOV (circled in red) should have a hose going from it back into the intake pipe (the large pipe which the air filter is connected to)
  8. Plumb it back so the air expelled from the BOV gets fed back into the air intake.
  9. Heavy for a hatch of 10 years ago. Normal for a hatch released since 2000. Around 1400kg.
  10. Goto http://www.powerplayimports.com.au and ask them to order it direct from Japan for you. Bet you get turned off by the price in the end though
  11. No, it's front wheel drive. Less tempremental reliability then yes. But it's the perfect car when it comes to the mixture of chassis, handling bits and performance.
  12. Why? I'm only quoting the article and I've driven a FWD turbo car extensively (notorious Saab 9-3 Turbo) and torque steer is a problem.
  13. Mazda3 MPS would have too much torque steer and this Drive article seems to think so too: http://drive.com.au/Editorial/ArticleDetai...articleID=18339 From the article:
  14. Spotted SHRUGZ, DR SKY and 20INCH in the city

    Tokyo Auto Salon 2007

    Yes but you're missing the most important thing... Are the air-hostesses hawt?
  16. lol Alien the master of the massive wheels at the front.
  17. Munkyb0y was that photo taken in Chatswood?
  18. Bah my front bar is so ripped up from driveways I don't care about this sort of stuff anymore However, once I get it repainted....
  19. Apparently it's called "denki anma" Works by stepping on a guy's crotch and giving him a fake electric shock by vibrating your foot. Just wondering how common this practice is, especially when it's showcased on a chip packet!
  20. Here's the knife for the birthday cake... Don't cut yourself. Happy birthday wilbur!
  21. Sir-D - you just had your AFM replaced - this would help fuel economy somewhat.
  22. The Impreza is painfully slow and it won't be as well put together as the IS. It's 0-100 is close to 10 seconds and that's slower than the IS200 for sure. The IS would also be much nicer inside and it also looks nicer than the bugeye 02 Impreza. Unless you have a huge wanting to go AWD I wouldn't choose the Impreza.
  23. I would NOT get the Impreza. IS200 is nice but again, a bit on the slow side.
  24. I have one. It performs well and is more quiet than most other exhausts I've heard..
