  1. bugger put the evo next time, i am sure it was feeling left out on the sideline!!!!
  2. Machang, why complaining about dogs and cows???? its a test of skill man. Where else do you have gambling, (which way will the dog run?, rock or cow? culvert or just a big pot hole?) found mixed with a special stage rally. Makes for one very special stage!!!!
  3. The article above I think gives the true answer by way of a round about manner. But I do disagree that the root cause for engine sludge is the use of high octane fuel with synthetic oils. In my opinion, I believe that some of the reasons are engine sludge to form are the following High engine temps Hard driving low quality fuel Bad filtration systems on the oil circuit Low operational temps It is true that high octane fuels raise the engine combustion temp. But this alone is not enough to breakdown the oil and cause sludge. On the flip side, some simple practices can prevent the formation of sludge. use of a good oil filter - As important as the oil itself, I am a firm believer that my oil is only as good as my filter. good quality oil - Synthetic is fine Timely oil changes - If you drive a lot in stop and go traffic, harsh weather, bad air quality, the manufacturers claim of extended oil change periods do not apply to you!!! There is no point in discrediting synthetic engine oils, as I don't think it is a proven fact that only synthetic oils cause sludge. On another note, I am not a firm believer that just using synthetic oils lets you change oils at longer intervals. the oil change interval depends on The oil The Filter The type of driving Type of engine I think this is a much larger discussion. But my simple point is that just by changing the oil to synthetic oils, you may not be extending your oil change period.
  4. at least the looks will follow my track position. bad to worse!!!!!!!!!
  5. All go for the front of the car and they forgot the rear. looks like a bloody mazda 3!!!!! But thats good, all i will see is the evo front from my rear view mirror!!!!!
  6. Aiyooo... looks ugly!!!!!!!!!!!!!! I might want one.... but goes against all that i HAVE been trying to stand for.

  8. Me too.. Montero (92)
  9. I think he cant seem to get in and out of them due to age!!!!!!!!!!!
  10. I dont know if any of you saw it, but in the very first Katu that DD participated, in the good old evo IV, he beat a yellow legacy turbo by barely a bonnet length. I still remember standing on the first corner not knowing what the result was.
  11. This is a good site, I have bought a lot of parts from them and they have been super fast.

  13. Ask all the mitsu guys on the forums. I think it should be out by the end of the year. Although, looking at the evo, its probably going to cause some ripples with my marrige to the Z.

  15. If there is anyone interested in going for the Laguna Seca Moto GP race let me know. I am probably going to drive up from LA.
  16. Hey guys, any pics/news on the 4X4 rally?
  17. The track is used a lot. Both manufacturers as well as enthusiasts. The surface itself is quite nice, not too many bumps, but there are some sharp edges, specially in the chicane. I know a few guys who bent a wheel or two. I did spin off track once before but nothing happened. very safe run-offs, probably another reason why its used a lot for testing. hard to damage the car there.
  18. Finally managed to get some footage of my track day at Streets of Willow. (SoCal)
  19. Dont know about wings, but make sure you have a nice pair of boots handy to crawl out of a paddy field!!!!!
  20. Good luck with keeping the car clean bro. take it from a fellow Black car owner, it looks great when you wash and wax it, but give it 10 mins and the beauty attracts more dirt than a dirt bike. Invest in a wiping cloth!!!!!!
  21. Hi Manny, mail me at [email protected] I am also based in LA but would be able to give you some good contacts.
  22. Now didnt a certain Mivec owner own that car a while back?
  23. I would like to add a few more DRIVE options. 1) Colombo to Avissawella- Great scenic drive 2) Dambulla to Kandy- Drove this last year and was a blast to drive.
  24. He is a Naaki bugger. once you see him you might not be much more of a fan.
  25. Ado Ado, now dont bash the old man when he dosnt even know how to get on a forum. so let me defend him. He buys the new cars to make him feel younger. great ego boost!!!!! almost as good as turbo boost.
