  1. The CV30 comes with a 2C-T engine. AFAIK they have no rev limiters. My Townace had a large adjustable bolt under the accelerator pedal which limited pedal travel, thus limiting the RPM.
  2. It came wrapped in bubble wrap, inside another box. I've never had any fragile items broken during shipment thus far.
  3. Yes from ebay. I posted details here.
  4. My Vios and the new Fiat 500 weigh the same. I shudder to think exactly what kind of cost cutting measures went into my car when it was designed :/

      Sorry forgot to say my one is a Lancer.

      the vios is just a slightly different echo/platz. So the weight is spot on. New cars are getting heavier anyway.

      when you are checking a car's weight, shouldnt you be looking at the curb weight and not the gross weight?

  5. It translates to "We may drive on the left but we are boys from the right/south". It's a play on words since dakuna is used to describe right (as opposed to left) as well as to describe south in the cardinal directions.
  6. These are Osram Nightbreaker Plus units, they're brighter than the regular Osram units my car came with. They reach farther and the light dispersion is better since the cutoff is clearly visible now.
  7. So as I was swapping in the new Osrams that arrived today, my overeager self didn't notice the spring retention screw on one headlight was loose and the spring disappeared into oblivion when I undid the latch. So after freaking out for an hour pondering a few minutes, I improvised by using a key ring. The one on the right LEFT is what I made. It took me all of 15 minutes, and it works perfectly, if a little more pliable than the material the original spring was made of. On the right is what I made. All you need are two needle nose pliers. Edit: Due to an unexpected brain fart I was unable to tell my arse from my elbow when I made this post. Errors have been rectified.
  8. Can you feel the rev limiter coming into play? If you have no trouble revving beyond 4k in drive, then it's probably nothing to worry about. It's probably a mechanism to limit damage to the transmission in case you shift into gear, since pressing the release button is not required for D <-> N.
  9. So the Osrams I ordered arrived today. Well the H4s arrived, not sure why the H3s didn't arrive with them since I ordered them from the same place. Here are some photos for comparison.
  10. Osram Nightbreakers arrived, now if only there was a car in garage in which I could install them.

      They work great, I can only imagine how the H3 fogs (also 55W) would fare.

  11. I used that method for a friend's Arcade version, the process is quite tiresome, hence why I didn't bother suggesting it to Ripper. We had to use a computer from the office to carry it out in the end because my desktop didn't go through the process properly and he has sexual relations with his Apple devices uses an MBP.
  12. it's a sewage transport truck. the wording goes "caca caca".
  13. Yes I tried when the feature was first made available, but not since then. You can always purchase the official XB 360 flash drive, as recommended by Microsoft. Here's a link. http://www.ebay.com/itm/SanDisk-Cruzer-XBOX-360-16GB-16-gb-USB-Flash-Drive-usb-/120732733399?pt=UK_Computing_FlashDrives_SM&hash=item1c1c3b4fd7#ht_2594wt_1344
  14. nuno, the USB stick does the same thing an HDD does, up to 16GB at least.
  15. The current dashboard allows you to use USB drives to expand memory. Follow the link. http://blog.yellowchilli.net/2010/04/xbox-360-usb-stick-flash-drive.html
  16. Machan, is that shock mount mod safe? From the photo it seems to me the angle of of the force applied has change slightly, wouldn't this be an issue in the long run?
  17. In my case it made the fuel flow backwards through space and time thus filling up my tank like. In the end I had to siphon off fuel every 100kms and distribute it amongst the petrol hingannas in their Axios, Allions and Priuses (Prii is not a plural and will never be a plural). Very much like the magic porridge pot, only my car doesn't understand voice commands because it doesn't have a teraflop computer inside it like the newer models.
  18. They stopped broadcasting eurosports on PEO TV in 2010
  19. You want a funky Citroen, bring down a D21 or a CX, or better yet a SM. But DS3... no.
  20. Also check japansoft.
  21. Check the connection to the sensors. They may have come loose when the undercarriage was being washed.
  22. Wouldn't be the "Batmobile" without the wing though.
  23. what the hell is wrong with the face of that Cappuccino up for sale?

  24. One will not simply hand over power of attorney to a complete stranger. Also, the power of attorney document does not contain any details about change of ownership or anything else, it will simply state when the agreement expires. To transfer ownership, one must should have another mechanism in place for the transfer to occur at expiration.
