Maybe he wants to sell the car for a higher value? It's the wrong way around in the SL market right, while most other countries have more demand for manual cars? o.O

Is it tax reasons or simply the 'fuel efficiency and mileage' conscious buyer of SL? Cuz AFAIK the tax rate is same from 1.5L upto 3L or so in petrol category?

Could load up with ballast for that, right? AFAIK, even race cars do that by being designed with minimum possible weight and then balancing upto the minimum required weight.

It would be nice if the voting buttons could be fixed, cuz even I'm getting 'used up all your quota' error, even though I'd not voted on a single post yet.

Well, that's great news If that can be organized along with the opening of the dyno on the 15/16 Oct, it'd sure be great fun and also some fair races, with proper power to weight ratio cars competing I saw some pics of an RWD Altezza dragging a FWD SOHC Civic or so back in 2008 Drags Btw, as of the Mustang, is it possibly the most powerful 'normal' car in SL? (Considering a price of ~$32000 vs. ~$100000 for Ferrari or Aston Martin)

No bro, all markets other than JDM has the Mazda3. And yes, the Axela has a 1.5L engine which is slightly more powerful than the 1.6L engine in the Mazda3. Fuel consumption wise, probably vice versa.

Seems to be missing from the database, even Google has cached the earliest version with only one post in it

Yeah, the same old question...

Dude that's one seriously looked down question cuz it differs such a lot, and you haven't even mentioned the engine capacity. So better search the forum. Assuming it's a 1.5L, I'd say around 8-10 km/l in city and 11-13 out of town. Hey, check out http://specs.cars-directory.net/toyota/allion/2001_625/, it might have what you need. Good luck!

Well yea, but that guy should probably join drag racing then Would be fun and he could make them official, cuz I've not heard of drags this year... Actress, probably not. No one got a glimpse of the driver by any chance?

Awesome build Keep us posted and also if possible, please also put up any built pics of your Supra? (read here that you have one too, track tuned?)

AFAIK, the name Maybe some trims are differently equipped though but you'd have to look through a side by side list to get that. Mazda Axela is the name for Japan, Mazda 3 is for the international market, anywhere outside Japan. More info : http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mazda_3

Who's the MP who'd would buy a Mustang?? They like all luxury stuff right? And as far as I know and friends in the US tell, it has quite a hard ride... I mean the Cobra with all the sports suspension?

Out of curiosity and possibly interest to buy one, how many manual Skyline R32/R33/R34 are there here in SL? Especially interested in an AWD R33 with a RB25DET or RB26DETT, anyone some info please?

Hey what sort of a permit is that? Who gets it? Any more info? Only brand new or any car? Got the common age limits? Who is going to convert that and how? Axle and stuff from where? Any info would be nice I guess, for informative purposes

Hey any pics by any chance? With a phone in hand I mean?

<REPOST>

I'd say at same PSI, N2 filled tires feel quite tough and hard, but it provides good handling and more stable than normal air. But oh my god, the ride comfort on normal profile tires is impossible! As someone mentioned before, yes like going without shock absorbers... This was on a friends Mazda2 btw.

How much does it cost to bring here, though the original price is around 3.5M Rs, and what sorta person would bring a 5.4L V8 here? Awesome car though, in a straight line

Was missing the forum in the last few days and only the google cache was helping. Great new look and it looks pretty neat! Thanks a lot for all the nice work MADZ

Well the other guys will tell about the prices and SL models and stuff, but you ask about the cars itself right? VTEC is a variable valve timing system and i-VTEC on new cars have both valve timing and lift variable. It was introduced first for high performance, but later used even for economy. There are many types, most common here being SOHC VTEC, VTEC-E etc. If you want economy, go for VTEC-E (E stands for economy) or high performance, DOHC VTEC though that's not too easy to find around here as I've experienced. i-VTEC on new Civics is totally different, it's a quite powerful car when driven normally, and uses VTEC to achieve fuel economy, if you drive it very calmly always below 3000rpm. It's the other way round than older Civics, where VTEC was used to increase power. That's why people here are complaining about bad fuel economy on the new Civics, as the Economy profile will nearly never get activated in SL. The car ECU monitors the driving conditions and activates economy when it 'feels' its appropriate, that is in highway mode. We don't have highways here = good power, less economy. Ferio is a Japan model, made in 4 Door Sedan style. It's just a Civic that wasn't meant to go outside Japan brand new. Vi-RS, a trim model in Civic, something like Base, Luxury, Sports or EX Saloon, SE Saloon on other cars. VI-RS is a sporty model in the Civic, usually with a very good engine. But after the start of the ES series cars in 2000, even that became a bit less sporty, as suspension was changed to cut costs. Hope I cleared up something for you.

Oh well, let's hope it happens That'd be nice though, to get to all you people. Btw, any reply for the next post?

@Devinda_Z Hey I was searching google and saw some older posts of yours from 2007, regarding a green Integra 1.8 auto. Seems you know hell of a lot about these, even the 'GSR' problem 3 years back while I was also confused. Any advice you can give? Someone had told about a manual swap has it been done or are parts available? I see that it's a SiR-G as you say, a DB8 sedan of 300- numbers. How much are those cars worth now? If 1.8M was too much even those days...? And if I quote from a certain 'albertho' : I have a 1997 SiR2 DC2, specs are 178bhp@7600rpm and 17.8 kg/m@6200rpm. OMG, where is this car? Have all these crashed into pieces within 3 years or something? Quote 'mazdaspeed' : Really love the Honda Integra with the 2 lights….. One time I was looking for 1 but was way over my budget…. Well he must have found something for it to have been over his budget? The 2 long light DB8/DC2 I mean? Any info by anyone will be greatly appreciated!
