    price apart pumping fuel to this baby need s a deeep pocket like mariana trench i suppose with our fuel prices .But really nic pics though tnx
  2. I m not starting a fight here but if you cut straight to a driver with high beam on you are doing a really bad thing lakshank because it will increase the possibility of an accident and worse an innocent bystandard like a pedestrian could get hurt because of that.I know its not good attitude to disrespect fellow drivers but what you do is not a good thing either Nothing personal though man......
  3. No offence to you GihanFx and your friend but i must say that i agree with Mazdaspeed.Its one thing that you inrease your visibility but I seriously think it should not be at the expense of the other s. Also you very well know the morons who are drving on our roads and some may go to some extreme action sometimes if they get pissed off by actions as this and can cause serious accidents and injuries to everyone.
  4. sorry to hear what happened to you DJ but thanks a mill for shareing the bad experience so that there wont be another By the way do you i d like to come back to the original question.Is it illegal to use those blubs(xenon/HID)?
  5. Nice info tnx gys but if the mods allow can you guys post contact details of good auto electrician(s) who knows how to do the conversion because i guess that ll be helpful for all who are interested.
  6. I was just going to ask you what you ment by "not the proper way" but you ve already edited your post.Tnkx Sha7 any idea about a good place to look for?I ve seen the bulbs DJ Shan mention for the same price but are they actually good?What i heard is that they are not actual xenon bulbs but just a colored halogen bulb.Is it true?
  7. Can xenon lights be fitted on a vehicle which originally comes with halogen bulbs? Is it safe for the electrical circuits? If possible i d also like to know the price of a pair and a good place to get.Thanks
  8. Dont know if that story or true or not but if it is thats a real pity.
  9. boo hoo i m out of colombo so i wont be able to attend.Have fun guys
  10. thanks don i ve also heard about this FB13 diesels ageing quickly issue but never thought it was a fact than fiction.But many thanks for the tip.Do you know if its true for the diesel FB14 as well? Also guys anyone knows about the resale value of the market for the corsa?Is it hard to sell this vehicle?
  11. Tnx alot machan. The main reason for me even to consider a diesel is the price of petrol. You seem to know alot about FB14 s man thanks again for the great advice.I ll defineatly look for those if i decided to go for a FB14 but as i said previously the clearance is the main thing that i worry about. Keep up the good work machan and i ll let you know the progress.
  12. Thanks alot raveen for the info.I never knew about this full light/seperat light issue.Do you know whats the difference between the 02 models?Or is it just one of sri lankan myths? Yes I gess according to the pictures the one i refer to is a full light model. But as you say if the ground clearence is lower that N16 then i m in trouble :-( Neverthe less thanks alot machan and may be i ll have a test run with a FB14 just to check the clearence :-) Also from the wen I found out a F/O 1997 SB-14 Disel car for 1.3M.What are your thought s about this?there were no pics uploaded. Since you are a owner machan what are the things that i should look into or pay my attention when inspecting a FB 14?Thanks
  13. no machan this is an auto corsa. Thanks for the info on the FB14 s.The ground clearence is a big issue for me as the entrance to my house has a high elevation from the road and many cars(especially FB15/N16 etc) can not enter without scratching the underside against the concrete.I m a bit worried about this because i have to face this on a daily basis.I know most cars nowadays dont have that much of ground clearence but i practically saw this issue this with Nissans.May be others can share theri comments on this as well. Anyway i saw a 1995 F/O fb14 advertised in here for just 1.08M.do you think its a good price?
  14. mmmmmmmmmm... may be i m wrong about the engine the car is a 1500cc auto so should the engine be 5A-FE instead of 5E-FE?

    Fb14 Shocks

    Hi Raveen My experience with mareena was not good.Just after 06 months the replaced shockes turned really bad so i had to purchase a brand new set.So based on that I recommend to buy new ones.Even though the price difference may be high it would be a reliable solution.
  16. Tnx for the advice raveen.Even I myself am thinking of that.But honestly i dont know anything about FB14.is fb14 good in fuel (i was told corsa can do over 12km/l even during city drive with A/C!!!)?Also is the ground clearence low as the fb15?are there any major issues(like the air flow sensor issue in fb15) in relation to the electronics and ECU?whats the current market value for a well maintained fb14 car?I saw a few advertised in here as well.
  17. tnx milindu the one i refer to is 302- so Iguess because of the budget the prices have gone up.
  18. Thanks Ripper but machan most AE110 s are very much above 1.3M(at least thats what i experienced)
  19. any comments/suggestions guys?
  20. Happy b'day bro even though I dont know you. Since we all are a community I guess you dont have to know a face to a name. Cheers
  21. Thanks for the reply. Engine:5E-FE Model:EL 53 Corsa VIT-X Power stering with tilt Retractable power mirrors power shutters rear head rests Crystal lights But no security alarms/alloy wheels/cd player/fog lamps.Owner is saying it does over 12km in city with A/C.Milage is over 115,000km.
  22. Hi All I m very new to this forum but I was must say all of you ppl are doing a great job. Keep it up and congrades. I m planning to purchase a car for my self but with the current prices I m finding it really difficult because my budget is around 1.3M.What I look in a car mainly is fuel consumption(because I need to use the vehicle on a daily basis) and the availability of spares. There s a 1500cc 1998 full option auto Toyota Corsa VIT-X sedan for 1.3M.Do you guys think if it’s a good deal? Since Toyota has discontinued this range do you guys think it s difficult to find spares? are there any members who owns a corsa in this forum? Thanks in advance.
