  1. B310's engine bay seems to be kinda small don't you think? Doubt whether the the mazda engine will fit in there.
  2. Rice or not, looks better than the normal insight to me.
  3. Get your wheel speed sensors checked. And if all fails, check your brake lights! Happened to me once, ABS indicator came on, checked everything possible and even replaced the ABS relay only to find that I have blown both the brake lights replaced them and the indicator went off.
  4. Happy Birthday Ripper have a good one
  5. Idiot.... why were you ever born?
  6. Looks like I have, my bad.... anyways thanks for pointing that out your highness, even though it looks like you have some problem reading dates!
  7. Had terrible stock halogens mate, I settled for these instead of HID's ; http://www.narva.com.au/products/browse/h4 came with some relays and stuff , have no idea what it is really, local electric guy got them installed. Far better than the halogens, cost me around Rs.8000.
  8. Ever heard of auto GAYERS?
  9. True that but, who knows they might come up with something better than the panamera. Can't think of any other car manufacturer that makes cars which are almost similar to each other, but you get some specialty there too.
  10. Well mate, Ferdinand Porsche designed and built the VW bug alright but the fact is that porsches design haven't changed much from the bug has it? I think Porsche should try to add some variety to their design, I mean, to me, who has absolutely zero knowledge on porsches its quite difficult to spot the differences between a carrera, a 911 and a cayman and a I thought they were up to something with the Carrera GT which looked quite nice and had a unique look to it but no. But then after seeing the panamera I thought its better they stick with the same design.
  11. Well its your choice and I really can't complain but the car doesn't look right does it? Anyways if you are still going for it, 1.4mil is not going to be enough, ones with autoboxes go around 1.6-1.7mil and I don't think it will be an easy job finding a manual as well.
  12. As he has a budget of 1.4mil guess he is looking at the YOM 2002/03 AK12's these come with 1.3L engine and I don't think there are any other variants of this here except for the march impul.

    Toyota Auris

    I got to know about it in May, guess this was reintroduced late April.

    Toyota Auris

    I was thinking of a tax reduction as well mate but it turns out that it is only the 10year age limit, well then, there goes the Auris.

    Toyota Auris

    Guys, hope all you people are doing good, exams been keeping me away from the forum for quite some time, sorry about that. Well then, after the last attempt to bring down a axela under gift permit scheme not working out very well as the gift permit scheme suddenly stopped, I thought about giving it another try as they have reintroduced the gift permit scheme. But this time leaving out the mazda, I'm looking at a 2006/7 Toyota Auris, ran an internet search and found out it was the replacement for the corolla. Despite being the replacement for the corolla, it haven't quite caught up with the car market here from what I could see, there were only one or two advertised in AL as well. Any reasons for this? and saw some nutter quoting almost 4mil for an 2008 Auris in the sunday papers. Will any other spare parts store other than the agent have the common spares like timing belts/CV joints/brake pads etc? Any owners here? Would appreciate if you guys could share some info. and btw, does any one knows the prices of Toyota CVT fluid? Cheers!
  16. A local chap did the tint on my previous car, nothing fancy just a dark tint all around,cost me around 1500 and its been about 3 years and I still see that car around with the same tint, no discoloring whatsoever!
  17. Could someone give me a fair idea of the price of a HID conversion kit? Thought of changing mine too, maybe to something around 4000k.
  18. Hell yea, I've only seen about two or three 19- marutis around kandy lately, all the others might have rotten to the ground by now.
  19. This was with the older vitz(SCP10) mate, a 1L 1SZ-FE IIRC but this is supposed to be a 4 cylinder block right?
  20. Well, could be that they are designed to work on a slightly higher temperature than the others, but I've noticed this with Toyota's VVTi engine on the Vitz.
  21. I think you cannot import any damaged vehicle to SL, unless you repair it and then import it.
  22. Seems like a blown bulb, buy a bulb from any auto electrical shop and either you could replace it yourself(if you can take out the meter cluster) or get it done at a garage, just a simple job of replacing the bulb.
  23. Its not a bad car at all but it being your dream car, there is a good chance that someday that you will look at the most of the other hondas and think that your car looks "naked"(if you had bought a stock car) and go get a body kit,loud exhaust,loud stereo and all the other typical stuff you might find. And naturally you come to think of yourself as a street racer and go around town causing misery to each and everyone on the road. Please, if you end up with a good honda, keep it the way it is. Adding a set of alloy wheels won't a hurt. 10-11kmpl would be possible with careful driving but it depends on your driving style as dilesh had mentioned, but my thought is, however careful you try to drive you can't resist when a trishaw or a lorry tries to overtake you, so most of the people like me end up getting around 9kmpl in city even in a starlet!
  24. It's the fan boys he's talking about mate
