  1. yeah i saw that a few days ago... pretty impressive... i know some local drivers who'd do the same if they were as well equipped...
  2. i meant his future plan would be to go for an STi... insurance is a bi*ch there...
  3. lol well so have the previous years...
  4. STi
  5. nope i just turned 23 belated wishes boys... you missed the party p.s. thanks for the wishes everyone!! machan the 'brownies' will have to wait till ramadhan is over i'm in holy mode...
  6. that was some race... MS drove like there was no tomorrow... and that it was... is it confirmed that it was Fisi's wing that damaged his tyre or the williams debris? i'm pretty glad massa won... there's no better feeling than victory on home ground...
  7. ohhh plymouth prowler... haven't seen one of these (even in pics) in years...
  8. dims also said unreg...
  9. thanks for the wishes guys... i've actually been treating the car more than myself... new tyres and the works... she turns 10 tomorrow btw... well not so hot tonight since we're still in holy mode... must make up for it next weekend...
  10. i see a light at the end of the tunnel and you KNOW what colour it is
  11. speed fighter? fighting for speed?
  12. yup the 2nd one is indeed the new wrangler... this took place closer to galagedara (spelling?!) just beyond the bridge... there's a perera & sons branch opposite the descent to the field...
  13. all i know is the RX-7 savana had a twin-scroll turbo... has more inlets to the turbine or something on those lines? don't know much really...

    My New Ride

    that's correct... Hyper-CVT M6 is nissan's 6 speed tip-tronic gearbox... and yes it is the standard pulley and belt system... as you said it simulates 6 manual gears... no gears per se... the primera was first to get this gearbox... i'd have to say it's pretty impressive since CVT boxes weren't known to handle much torque at inception...
  15. yeah ABS on those preludes was called ALB... and if i remember right, preludes are the only cars with completely mechanical 4WS... all newer cars are electronically controlled... anyways it's sad that he's given up on the car but i agree it's a practical option unless you're an enthusiast...
  16. backing up for a run-up lol... it made no difference whatsoever... it makes another attempt with a different driver but to no avail... the disco manages to winch itself out using an anchor... night pic of the wrangler monstrous patrol... (4.2L diesel) p.s. i trust no one would lay claim to any of these pics...
  17. 'nuff said lol...
  18. it's late but i have a good reason just a few pics from last saturday's rendezvous (14/10/06)... it was my first time out with these boys and i had an awesome time... excuse the quality cos i'm using a 2M cybershot and it's showing its age... the first wrangler to show up (manual 4L straight 6) first attempt to climb bank... fails... water creeps into engine through exhaust... second wrangler shows up (auto 4L straight 6) first attempt to winch stalled wrangler out of water fails due to fractured cable... eventually pull out by LR disco using a strap... defender makes new attempt to cross (the SLR in the background is handled by the official photographer of the 4x4 club) the rest of the pics will follow soon... imageshack doesn't like me very much...
  19. shiiiittt where's that turbo from pila?

    My New Ride

    the interior is so refined for a 99 car that you'd like to just sit in there and do nothing...
  21. just realised... mothers against drunk driving... MADD? do they actually use the abbrevation?
  22. well dims prefers to keep his cars stock internally...
