  1. I always thought 'haha' was a manly laugh, whilst 'hehe' is more of a schoolgirl-ish giggle...
  2. Corolla Carolla Aston Ashton
  3. Or you could just get the Modellista version... It comes with different coloured plastic bits! And if you're lucky, this lovely young thing will deliver it for you.
  4. Looks like your regular garden variety K50
  5. Your Corolla was built in Victoria, and has at least 40% Australian made parts.
  6. See... This here is what I'm waiting for. http://www.autoguide.com/auto-news/2011/01/2011-tokyo-auto-salon-tes-concept-t-sports-previews-baby-ft-86.html Granted, its f*cking ugly. But, this one is just a concept... And it proves they can actually build something on the platform. Its rwd, it's 900kg and has a normal inline 4 instead of that boxer shite. Rumour mill is saying there will be a hardtop and 'vert. Direct competitor to the MX-5. I hope.
  7. The original concept was supposed to be a modern re-incarnation of the AE86. Lightweight, two doors, rear drive. Then the FHI buy-in happened, then the target demographic shifted. So now we have this thing, which I reckon is no longer anything like what the original concept was supposed to be, and instead is aimed squarely at the 370Z. Which is also why I believe they trademarked 'FR-S', because the final production car won't be anything like an 86, so won't be referenced in its name.
  8. This is the new Supra. ( I reckon ) This is why they re-applied to extend copyright on the name. I mean look at it... All the signature design elements are there. Specfically the side windows and front gaurds. It reeks of JZA80. And its effing huge. The smaller FR coupe will be the 'new ae86'
  9. Reminds me of a car which isn't light and powered by a rev happy 4 cyl. This thing is competition for the Zed. Don't want. There are rumours of a smaller FR coupe in the works though...

  11. I usually get Magna or Skyline. Both are an insult.
  12. 'tis nice :) I can even drink the tapwater
  13. Try owning a Chaser.
  14. Someone's gotta do it. The education system and your lazy parents aren't.
  15. Was a good day... Pleasure meeting those of you whom I met :)
  16. Damn gypsies
  17. I'm just gunna leave this And this Right here.
  18. Running a Redline (or similar) air cleaner makes them sound a bit angrier Headers will give you a nice 'vibrato' noise Anything bigger than 2" pipe is a waste of time Not running a resonator will drive you and every dog in your street insane Lukey tri-chamber mufflers have the best note on a 4k in my experience And no it won't go any faster, but it'll sound like it does.
  19. I'll be there reppin' the Czech Republic in a rented Skoda Ballin'
  20. NA used to have its advantages, but I'm firmly of the belief technology has overcome those differences. For instance, my JZX100 with VVTi and single turbo develops peak torque @1500rpm and holds a steady linear power curve all the way to 8 grand. No throttle delay at any point, no lag whatsoever. Mash pedal, scenery disappears. This is why I can't drive 4AGE anymore. They're old, slow and only generate their measly 100kw at ludicrous rpm.
  21. Next person to spell 'bargain' without two a's will have cat piss and marmite poured down their HVAC intake, personally, by me.
  22. You get used to it. At least you were courteous enough to take it to the tip... I usually leave mine on the side of the road where they break down.
  23. We did that JUST for this thread.
