this... hence going an Evo... 230rwkw in evo form will be the minimum power i think i'd be able to handle

I love the idea of the BRZ but i just cant deal with having a 6.3 kw car, and i'm not modding a new car

No golf?

Sounds like you're using E-go Jono...

taking all the fairings off to get em re painted. thinking just black for everything

will i need to notify vicroads for changing colours?

Yes, a simple phone call though.

Haha used to use that courier all the time cause they are without doubt the cheapest pricks around. I used to be able to send a gearbox on a friggen skid to South Australia for $20.

They save you money when you choose to drop off/pickup from a depot too...doubt your sender passedthe discount onto you though. It will be there tomorrow I'm guessing.

Technically I got free postage. Asked what the cheapest he could do pick up. Said x, then i was like, cheapest posted to melburn. x. win win.

Plus, i'm never home when they deliver the stuff. So its better when I can pick it up from the depot.

yeh... while it's definately the better family car i have read enough reviews and spoken to enough owners now to know it's not enough for me to have fun in.

the esp/tc is hardwired and can NOT be turned off. so even when you are on a racetrack with tc/esp turned off and the car detects an "emergency procedure" (hard entry to corner / slide / hard braking) the computer takes over and cuts all power.

gayer than a handbag full of rainbows

evo 8 MR will be next

just wanted to say thanks to all the people who gave me some advice and said it was worth sending a letter to try get out of the speeding ticket i got a few months ago

i recieved a letter back today with the infringment being removed and just an offical warning!

so when i get around to attending garage cafe soon i owe a few of you a drink or two for saving me a bit of cash :D thanks!

    • After @Kinkstaah debacle, I'd never want to try and get it right 😛
    • The hood lines up with the fenders. The front bar doesn't perfectly line up with the fenders where the wheel arch is. You have to 'squeeze' the front bar 'in' as it wants to naturally flare out and be longer on the sides. There's a few threads where people notice this when they only swap a GTR style bumper and front bar. Unless you have genuine OEM items - you may be better served getting conversion kits. There are GTT bumpers to fit GTR hoods. There are GTR hoods (non genuine) to fit the GTT bracketry. MAY  
    • The real question is, on some of those wild roads they call highways, how many times did a farmer in an old ute from the early 2000s blaze past you over double lines?   Tassie is a wild and really cool place, and after doing a work related road trip there January of 24, I understand why Targa Tasmania is ran there, and is so tough to do well at! We had a brand new Camry Hybrid that handled quite nicely, and thankfully weren't in an old car, because cresting some of those hills in a 100kmh zone for it to suddenly be like "surprise f**kers, this is a recommended 30kmh hard right turn" wouldn't be pretty. We weren't racing the Camry around, but we weren't slouching in the bends either. But my lord those old farmers know their old clapped out utes, and those roads, as they were absolutely hammering it!   You're also super lucky to make it up to Mt Wellingtong this time of year. It's often road closed with snow/ice! Also, I hope you hit up Salamander Road in Hobart for some insanely good food (I highly recommend the dimly lit Irish pub for a Guiness Pie, or even the bangers and mash!!!)   How long did the Ferry take to get across? I want to do a road trip of Tas on my own time, but I get horrifically sea sick, and I don't want me on the Ferry, just the car 😛
    • So far so good, about 30km on it so far and nothing out of sorts yet thankfully
    • Look at @Kinkstaah's thread on the issue.
