  1. FD is the 8th generation of civics and FB is the 9th generation. FB has Honda i-MID, USB, Multi-link Suspension , Projector Headlamps over the old FD series. Also different styling. But IMO double Wishbone suspension in FD is considered superior than the multi-link And FD has unique styling. They say the FD series Typer R (FD2R) is the last real NA Typer R! Also the 8th generation dashboard is just beautiful.
  2. I also saw that on the market back when I made the purchase. It has the same specs as Viofo 1119 plus a rear camera. But it has a fatal flaw in hot climates like Sri Lanka.
  3. I have been using the Capacitor version of Viafo A119 and it's a very solid product. Night time video clarity is superior compared to everything I have come across. Only an expensive (Rs 25,000/=) Transcend unit of one of my friends came close the quality. So I think Viafo 1119 is the best budget cam out there. Got it from ebay for around Rs 12,000/=. Came with all the accessories necessary for install
  4. Hi, Who is the official Rays Engineering agent in Sri Lanka? Or anyway of getting genuine TE37s locally? TIA
  5. Agree! That's why we need this kind of laws in Sri Lanka. http://www.cbs.sa.gov.au/assets/files/odometer_request_form_web1.pdf
  6. Guys, just putting my 2 cents on this topic! I'm an IT professional with a fair knowledge in programming and enterprise applications consulting. Almost every odometer in today's market have some kind of an EEPROM ( Electronically Erasable Programmable Read-Only Memory) to record car mileage. Although most of the new cars have linked clusters with the ECU, it's just another EEPROM chip. With sound knowledge of Serial programming/NAND chip programming and cheap ebay chip flashers almost anyone can adjust anything in those chips. So never ever rely on the odometer reading or ECU diag report for actual mileage. Laws are vague in Sri Lanka for this kind of tampering and I highly doubt whether it can be verified by even the manufacturer of the car if chips have been reprogrammed. Simply, correct reprogramming doesn't leave any detectable electronic trace. So beware!
  7. I've been with one of my friends when his new Aqua was inspected by Toyota Lanka. As I remember they charged 6K something. So this same inspection report can be obtained for any Toyota vehicle? New or Old?
  8. thanks aamarakoon! much appreciated! any more opinions guys?
  9. Hi, This maybe a redundant post. And this car maybe discussed many times. But I can't find any specific thread or anything but some scattered info in several threads. Since I'm planning to buy this car can someone provide me following details? Car :- Toyota Allion NZT240 - G Grade Teak Dashboard under 100,000 km mileage 1. What would be the reasonable price under current circumstances? 2. Expected Fuel Consumption? 3. Repair Costs? 4. Any model specific faults I should be aware of? Thanks in advance!
