no, not really. Because the number of times I've actually driven at the speed limit would be in the thousands. The number of times I've driven over the speed limit wouldn't even be in the triple digits. Remember I drove a cab for years, so lots and lots of good boy driving time to stack up against my handful of indiscretions.

If you loved me more, you'd see me more often. Don't blame me for it :)

I cannot base my assumptions on data I have not seen. :P

what is the speed through it anyway? i thought it was 80, thats enough to make some noise! lol

2nd gear limiter all the way. Then at the end if they pull you over for excessive noise blame toyota and hope they recall some more cars.

I'll even put a playing card on the back wheel for that awesome sound :D

I should do that on mine lol.

Page to the other ranga you mean :(. Colin is the ranga.

Oh and the tunnel limit is 80 normally, but they can lower it at will :D

:P I feel special

1. debatable - pommies don't count as people.

2. "LOOK!!! Imports! Set it to 40 AFTER they enter. Let's fuck up their shit"

Pommie/Strayen/Ranga I count as something goddamit!

ok this is how its gonna go .......

smity is gonna ride a pushie with a stack hat covered with zip ties. of course he will be noticed immediately so thats our que to come through the tunnel and amp up the noise so they get distracted and he can make it through, then we all take a different exit and laugh our asses off!

and if not we all make it on the news .....

Look forward to seeing you on the news :down:

the ranga army is gaining strength ......

Wir musen die juden ausrotten!

They're still no threat: They can't go out in the sunlight :)

True, you got us there ..... :P

We shall assemble our forces and attack with the cover of darkness! RED POWA!

2nd gear limiter all the way. Then at the end if they pull you over for excessive noise blame toyota and hope they recall some more cars.

I can't hit limiter in 2nd gear and still be doing 80...

Wir musen die juden ausrotten!

*müssen

To be fair it would have been easier with ratchet spanners, but we didn't have any (Remind me to bring mine this weekend Tristan). But still, next time you are under an RB look how easy those suckers are to get at.

Then theres the culprit heater hoses. Piece of p*ss to get to in an RB, smashed up between the engine and firewall for an SR.

amen! ratchet spanners are win!

ps ppl,

the 180 now has custom brake lines

jealous?!

they is the hot!

off to fulcrum and then engineering place now :P

I keep handing everyone the pages by making the last post on each page!! Dammit!

At this rate, we might make 1000 this year...

I cannot base my assumptions on data I have not seen. :P

You are 'special' :D

Sure you can: wheelspin

    • Per Mark Roberts of Sonictune: Mark Robert Author At this time, no. No ETA either 2016-17 models. You will be able to purchase and install a 2018.5+ TCU though   TCU purchasing and pricing info! As we near the release of TCU tuning, I am going to answer some questions I get asked often.   What do I need for TCU tuning? At this time, you will need a 2018.5+ TCU to be able to tune. If you have a 2016-to early 2018, you will need to replace your TCU with the newer version. One good way to know if your TCU is good is if you have auto upshift in manual mode in 1st gear around 6500 rpms. If your manual 1st gear goes to 7k rpm and will hit the rev limiter unless you shift, you have the older TCU.   Why do I need to buy another ecu license/phone flash if I already have it on my ECU tune? The TCU is its own computer module. It is completely separate from the ECU. Because of this, you will be required to purchase a TCU license and, if your tuner has it, the phone flash license required to tune it via phone/bluetooth.   Do I need TCU tuning? TCU tuning is NOT required. However, the faster your setup, the more it will assist in track and dragy time consistency.   If I’m ECU tuned by (tuner A) can I get my TCU tuned by (Tuner ? Yes, since it’s a different module and a completely separate flash, you can have two different tuners. However, it is highly recommend that you have both tuned by the same tuner. For me, my TCU tuning will directly complement my ECU tuning style and features and running my ECU and another TCU or vice versa MIGHT cause some issues. At this time and for the foreseeable future, I will only be tuning my current ECU tuned customers TCUs.     I have a SYVECS AWD controller. Do I still need it? Yes! The AWD controllers main job is to control your AWD system. However, with TCU tuning, you will no longer need the auto-shift function as that will be done through the TCU. The AWD controller will still be very beneficial for racers looking to maximize traction on the launch.     Shift schedule changes: holding gears longer at lower pedal input as well as max shift rpm changes. Please note, the new ECU race rom coming out will address 90% of the shitty drivability issues these cars have through custom maps from myself and Racebox—as well as others I am sure.   Increase shift speeds: as seen in the videos I’ve been posting, the TCU shifts much faster once tuned.   Increased shift pressures: as also seen in the videos, much firmer full throttle shifts.

    • The fancy pants red shock tower brace is finally incoming from MX5 Mania, getting it shipped from 'Merica has been a long and problematic process, and GWR, the 'Merican supplier will not ship directly to consumers outside of the US, Mania basically had to order a heap of them, the colour choice was silver, or red, and we all know anything red adds 5 killerwasps of dynotorques..... Whilst it does fit over a 2.5, and I've seen a few photos and videos of it being installed and fitting, google also says it might get real close to the FAB9 intake front runner, people in the US says it does fit with the FAB9 intake, except for one person who said it slightly touched.......so there is that.....LOL..... As it seems that I am the first in AU to have this combination of parts there's no local knowledge about fitment, so I'm just a willing guinea pig in this endeavour, I'll cross my fingers and toes and hope for the best In other news, I ordered stuff from China  on the same day I ordered the 23° silicone bend from Victoria, the stuff from China arrived a day ago, the 23° silicone bend is still travelling around Australia thanks to Australia Post, and "may" be here next week
    • Very good news...I contacted Racebox about it last night. My car is a 2016 so remains to be seen if it is compatible, requires a TCU swap, or is impossible.
    • What ECU are you running? This is probably the biggest question. If it's a PowerFC, I'd probably change the ECU and get something newer that will handle the injectors in a nicer way.
