my old golf gti sounded like a diesel on startup, no enhancement needed 😂

yeah, it's a renault app that synthesizes sound through your stereo speakers. not particularly accurate but good for a few giggles 😂

thanks to the renault-nissan alliance, i can make it sound like an R35 GTR 😂

found a setting that changes the car symbol on the satnav from an arrow to a pic of my car 😂

🤣

my11 sti got most of the changes mentioned above; pillow ball bushings, thicker anti-roll bars, stiffer springs F +16%/R +53% !, new dampers car turns in better with less understeer.

honda fail. how could seller not know the shift knob is the wrong way round ? https://www.trademe.co.nz/motors/used-cars/honda/auction-2357980192.htm

singapore spec explains all 😂

those gen 1 rav4's will soon be collectable like a j40 landcruiser 😄

nah, 1st gen rvr is not a cut-down evo, go back a generation to a mix of chopped chariot chassis and galant vr4 drive train. go for a forester or 1st gen rav4 with 3s-ge beams or 2nd gen rav4

hipster mobile with w**ker plate 😄

great fun but one for the history books. like the porsche aircooled flat six, the ej is too dirty and thirsty to survive into the future.

so many svx. + 1 bonus point if your directional factory wheels are all going in the same direction + 2 bonus points if they are all going in the right direction logbeats if your wheels are going in different directions 😄

the good bits... they are cheap compared to manuals, they have a proper torque convertor automatic, not a dopey cvt like the current wrx, it has nice big paddles, fixed to the steering column, yes, it does blip the throttle on downshift but ... the bad bits... it's redundant as the downshifts are so slow, the manual shift is backwards, i.e. push lever forward to shift up, pull back to go down a gear, the car has less torque than a manual and feels laggier. sounds crappier too, finally, ones i've seen also miss out on the big brakes.

in a ferrari testrossa with flat 12, the drivetrain is on a subframe designed to make engine removal relatively easy for maintenance. using a flat 12 does present compromises in packaging , suspension design and underbody aero.

did they run out of money to re-cover the seats ?

not total bulls***e, fiat and ferrari are distant cousins. both are owned by Fiat Chrysler Automobiles

and many helping hands, six speed boxes are heavy.

nice understated wrx 👍 tyres look stretched, what brand/model/size ? parking meter is a nice touch 😄

my old sti is back in palmy 😄

why remove ?

don't remember if there an RS bug eye or just hawk eye ?
