    Cool Hummer 911

    The copper looks like a stripper posing for the camera.....the bugger looks a bit gay too.... no ofence to any one.....and Oh yea.... The Hummer looks great..
  5. In my experience Clean Park does a good job. The super and I come to an agreement..... If the job is not good I dont pay...lol.... and I have never had to do that.....To me what is most important is the interior clean up, Which I must say Clean Park is excelent at . The body work I am not that happy.....all in all I am very satisfied with Clean Park...
  6. HEHeheh
  7. Hehe........ Optimistic bugger aren’t you........and bet you got V*P.....lol...the rascals are right there eh.....But seriously, like Sharkster says most don’t start if its not on neutral....Cheers.
  8. Picture this..... Dam hot day.... Your car parked out in the sun.... you need to go out for a meeting.....NOW don’t you wish you had auto start to turn the A/C on and keep it running for a couple of minutes before you actually get in ......Just a thought...
  9. I got mine done at Singer Auto Guard. When I went there recently they told me that they have decided to get an enhanced system which has key-less entry. One draw back with the singer system (What I have on) is that anyone familiar with the process could deactivate the engine immobiliser. There is also a company which promotes alarm systems that uses your mobile phone as the remote control. apparently when activated you could locate your car if it is in the area of the M/Phone network. You could also here what going on(conversation) in your car through your M/Phone. This was designed and developed by a Sri Lankan and the patent also belongs to him. It would be worth your while checking him out. I am sorry I have lost the contact details but I am sure with little effort you could find it. One bit of advice...... Do not be in a hurry..... Contact all alarm system vendors... Compare options and prices....and also make sure you would have 24 hour help in case you jam your alarm system or immobilise your engine.... Price Is Not The Only Consideration.
  10. Heh Heh........GTR ... GTR...GTR....GTR
  11. Thanks mate.... U indeed r a helpfull bugger arnt you......
  12. Yea yea ... all sorted and better than I expected.... The assessor forgot to put in the owners account component in to the approved estimate sooo got a brand new rear bumper and brand boot lid. the total repair cost 155,000.00 I only had to pocket out a measly 3000,00, the difference in the cost of painting…........ not a bad deal..... I gather you recon that a inline 6 is more sportily inclined that a V6...... when I queried the difference from Toyota, their answer was that the Car makers depending on the space in the engine bay decides in its gona be a straight 6 or a V6. i.s if the engine bay is long it could accommodate a straight 6 and if not long enough a V6( this i believe is done at the design stage). If this is not the real reason then what is ?......I wonder if this post belongs in the ask a expert category.... cheers
  13. Did not know the Cef was front wheel..... yea RWD feels good but tends to slide when cornering on wet/gravel or sandy roads.... not good when you r not intending to do it......lol....but I do feel RWD may be a bit more fun to drive...... don’t worry too much bout giving up d smokes mate.... after all U don’t want to be a quitter now do you !...hehehe
  14. Heh heh he....Never you mind.....My question was answered.....and I am happy......we could always do with any useful info...... this does have that flavour i must say....lol Thanks Sharkster, the cleaning cost me 2500.00 and the air filter cost me something like 1750...ish... soo it was good. There certainly is a bloody difference.... the motor sound smoother....don’t need to put the pedal to the metal to pickup just a touch does the trick....all in all I am happy... very happy...I certainly recommend getting your injectors cleaned if you have not done so for a long time and has loss of power (not a panacea for loss of power)..... Cheers
  15. hey dude, Thanks mate....I owe u a pack....Gold or Benson... hehe You just saved me 4000.00 bucks...... Thanks.....Called Clean Park .... said will cost around 3,500.00 Cheers
  16. LOL... no modifications WCC.....No such luck here......Just want to get my injectors cleaned.... and a routine diagnostic done along with a tuneup.......Clean park wanted 2000.00rs per injecter, and that will cost me 12,000.00 and Toyota said that they dont clean injecters ....They only replace them....lol. and did not want to even know how much it would cost..........soooo If you know the address......You could help me save some money for me smokes.... cheers
  17. Hi guys and Gals, I need to know the address or let me know how to get to the Garage in Kotikawatta that does performance modifications. Thanks matees
  18. I did speak to a lawyer on the above a long time ago, hence details escape my memory. To answer some of yoyr questions yes there is a decible limit allowed and anything over is illeagle. But so is the emmision laws. It does exist but is not implimented cause if the Bus buggers go on strike then its a hassle to the relavant minister and the cops dont want that now do they. But we poor buggers....well even if we r as quiet as a church mouse and the cops say we are loud.....loud it is; unless your are willing to go to courts and chalange them. its not like as though the authorites have equipmet to measure levels of sound... But Yes laws do exist on noice level.....
  19. Yep Mate....twas d Verossa......and Wife it was.....estimated repair cost..........186,000.00......she always had a way of doing things in style... Heh Heh Heh
