i dont see anything luke..

anyway im mad at him because i sent him an email like six months ago asking how he went with his Toyota Tundra that i read about in his column in one of those car magazines he writes for. Im pretty sure it was via facebook, pfft its not like he would get more than fifty messages a day on there..

good to hear he is just slow generally with those things and i hadnt offended/bored him somehow :unsure:

wait, what? you use the money people give to your for 'their' cars to buy your own?!

oh wait i just for that the JZX is one of your own, good luck man, bit of a buyers market now unfortunately..

just to make the wait go faster, heres one i spotted in Cambodia last year.

how porn are they?

those 26 inch rims defintely fill out the guards better than say..these 24's

going to be easy enough to source rims and rubber you want or just going to make do with whats on the truck you get?

As always, ride height is the key with fitting bigger rims. I was going to go the lift kit option, but then I realised my kids probably wouldn't be able to get in!

I'll be buying my own rims once it's through compliance, as I need stockies for compliance (and future defects lol).

saw this at trackday at EC yesterday, also want.

dont even need to tow anything..just think they look awesome.

not sure if i would still be as lusty for one if i saw them everyday, im sure the rarity over here adds to the cache for me but still. Niiiiice

Patty,

The inside of those things makes you feel like your sitting in one of the OLD McDonald's restaurants. You know, with all the hard plastic everywhere, cheap materials.

Please reconsider this obsession with Yank trucks. I had a brief twirl in a Ram V10, and still that engine didn't make it good- sounded like a vacuum. Stick with a Tundra.

yeah im yet to get inside one, thanks for the heads up Alex.

childhood dream shattered a little but meh, i cant afford the silly money they ask for them anyway.

good luck with the Tundra Kristian, 30k is a big saving on landed retail, we dont get such a huge difference with the jap imports do we?

Well we don't get anything in 4WD apart from the stuff that comes from the US in the import world, that's the main reason I'm getting one.

But the margins on US cars are huge here still, a bit like it was with Japanese imports about 15 years ago, when Soarers were $60K...

    • Uncle Duncan Yeap, FI Interchiller  Works well, normal IAT's cruising with the WTA only went from 50°c+ to 25-30°c with the interchiller  Before, when on it hard, the IAT would see 80-90°c, now, the highest has been was around 38°c IIRC I recommend it for the street or strip where your only on it hard for 10 or so seconds, but it wouldn't be efficient for sustained track use as it would heat soak from the AC turning off or whatever it does during WOT to protect the compressor It really needs the AC running for it to not heat soak and keep the WTA coolant chilled My WTA coolant temps when just cruising is around 2°c
    • Hey Mark...sorry to interrupt your career change to hair dressing... but...did you ever fit the interchiller to the commodore, and if so how was it? And, who made it?
    • I've been pondering this, I really enjoy the convertible thing, for me, it's like riding a motorbike, without all the issue of riding a motorbike, mainly, my old sore arthritic joints getting beaten up, and, being able to do it in shorts and a T-shirt and not needing a helmet and all the other gear required, especially like wearing jackets and pants in the summer, or needing 6 layers of cloths in the winter, or not having wet weather gear handy when your 100km away from home on the bike when it decides to start raining As for the hard top and its Coupe look, whilst I do lose all that open top feeling that I really enjoy, from my experience with the NB with a detachable hard top, the cabin is a much nicer place to be, the difference in noise for one, a hard top quietens down the interior, alot, with the soft top up or down it's pretty noisy, which, after 5 or so hours, can get tiring But, as you stated, the detachable hard top totally changes the look of the car, in a really good way, and for me, the look of a detachable hard top is so much better than the PRHT which looks more like a after thought with its weird bulbous rear roof line For me, the minimal effort of putting in on, or storing it after removing it, is well worth the time and effort for the look alone And yes, I'm sure the next owner will be grateful for it as well.......  
    • I get into huffs with people when I suggest the MX5 looks so much better as a coupe than it does as convertible. Pretty sure I don't prefer the convertible version of anything. Good job on the hardtop! The next buyer will appreciate.
    • IMO wrap does have its uses, but like you said, quality wrap, and professional installation, would probably cost want a quality paint job does, but, the paint, if maintained, is basically for life, and much easier to touch up if required  In other news: it's pissing down here, with thunder, lightning and only some small hail "at this stage", luckily all "my" cars are undercover  I've also been contacted by a guy in Newcastle about the SS, he said he will come down next weekend for a look, we'll see how that transpires I guess 🫰
