  1. nothing worked me other than waraka.
  2. Try a piece of "waraka" as the bait for the cage... worked all the time. dry fish (even cheese) did not work well for me. and true, the cage is very effective . keep a cage in the car too.
  3. Apart from the car list, Starlet would be a better option. Below is my experience with starlet ep91 (YOM is 1997) Fuel Consumption : In heavy traffic don't expect more than 10. Moderate traffic 12-13. Long distance with careful driving 17-18 (once I achieved 20+)
  4. its pretty easy. Go there, Select all ads, search for mark x. its a long advertisement...
  5. Where did you read the indian proposal ? What are the main points ?
  6. Hybrids
  7. or probably the lower arm bush or engine mounts. Bring it to a wheel alignment. Mostly they will tell you what the root cause is.
  8. Almost all have been discussed deeply. just do a search and do some study.
  9. I think how heavy the car is critical when dropping the car in to a pot hole. My starlet has gone over many pot holes almost every manner you can think of, with low profile tires, still no issue. doesn't mean that I do it purposely, but some potholes can not avoid.
  10. True. Selling a vintage like car and buying a similar old car make no sense. you know the service history which you have done, you know what need to be repaired, issues and what not. Basically you know the car well. Why take a risk ? (I'm facing the same scenario )
  11. Im very much like to see the answers for these questions. Once I accidentally dropped in to a garage near pannipitiya, Replica Sp*ed. Later I got to know they are specialized in Subies. As I noticed they bring down parts too. Specialists will answer properly...

    Alloy Wheels

    https://www.tacomaworld.com/tirecalc This might help you for calculations...
  13. New Indian Car owners these days. (facepalm)
  14. I don't think it is easy to replicate the world market's price if there is a sudden variation. That is because of the complex agreements like hedging are playing around. Even today ( or tomorrow or within this week) price is reduced, predicted price for the agreement could be higher. Besides this is an opportunity to the government to settle any loss of CPC or whatever. I'm curious to know what happened to the huge loss incurred due to previous hedging agreement.
  15. Recently watched Predestination, Untouchables and Unbroken. Predestination is sort of a paradox movie. And Untouchables and Unbroken based on true stories. All are great movies to watch if you love realistic ones.
  16. I did some sound system installation few months back for the same car. Installed Pioneer head unit and speakers. Installed an under seat sub too (don't remember the brand, not kenwood/pioneer/jbl) I think JBL sub woofers you see in sri lanka are not the genuine ones. A genuine one will cost a fortune. After 8 - 9 months, still working good.

    Swift Or Cruze

    and do you know any specific place for Chevrolet Cruze parts ? For stuffs like CV joint, tie rods etc.
  18. To find who the culprit is do this. Jack the car up. Try to rotate the wheel If it doesn't rotate smoothly, the the bearings might be the problem. Some cars need only to replace the bearing. that's a very cheap fix. Some need to replace the whole unit. If that's the case, it'll cost few thousands.
  19. Thats the life bro. things happen Get well soon.
  20. hey PreseaLover, heard you got some problems and sold the vehicle. It's sad you sold the manual. How are you feeling now ? is everything ok ?
  21. Recently watched Water Diviner. one of best movies. you should watch if you like story type movies.
  22. Rent a Double cab when you need it.
  23. I have to agree with this part. but before going to expensive highway we need to achieve certain economic level I suppose. If we have a high production capacity where we need to transport our products to harbors/ air ports etc. we need a good transportation system. But if we are going to have an expensive highway system just to travel comfortably, may be just to show off or as a political gimmick where you can sell it in the next election while scamming during construction, I don't think that's what we need right now. Of course we need it when the real requirement comes.
