Hiro Protagonist Posted September 22, 2008 Report Posted September 22, 2008 (edited) while it doesnt have the obligatory chromies or fully sick lowering usually associated with forester GT I'm still hoping it is infact a forester GT, as it would be one less cock on the road :y: Forester GT has mags, those are the stock steelies, thus probably ruling out GT. That, and the lack of top-mount + bonnet scoop. And the Festiva could have got that high maybe if it was wheelspinning.....hit black ice or something, speared straight off the road? Possibly front wheels air-born when impact occured, allowing such high wheel speeds (but not necessarily car speed) Edited September 22, 2008 by Hiro Protagonist Quote
7shades Posted September 22, 2008 Report Posted September 22, 2008 ^^^ Agreed No way in hell a festy can crack 180. I know, I've tried. ( And before the flames start, I have an infrequently used airstrip I am graciously permitted to play silly buggers on, not public roads... ) And if it impacted with anything at that speed, it would have completely disintegrated, not deformed. I reckon the needle was jolted by the impact and stayed there. Quote
JiP Posted September 22, 2008 Author Report Posted September 22, 2008 Well I got my red, 3 door, 1.3 Festiva up to 165 and this one was a 5 door, 1.5. So I assume an extra 15km/h isn't that impossible. Quote
curly Posted October 7, 2008 Report Posted October 7, 2008 Anyone guess what this one was, couple of hints, it's a toyota, it's the right way up, and yes there's 2 baby seats in the back Quote
curly Posted October 7, 2008 Report Posted October 7, 2008 Any more pic's rod? No i thought i would make it hard. i really didn,t like being near it. so have a guess Quote
PHATKE20S Posted October 7, 2008 Report Posted October 7, 2008 Before i left work we had the VT Commodore that came flying off Hornibrook Bridge a couple of months ago..... My workmates didn't want to go near it... some people freakout easily :y: Pretty bad mess and also had baby seat in the back..... Thank god they didn't take the baby out with them......... :cool: Quote
curly Posted October 7, 2008 Report Posted October 7, 2008 hint 5 door wagon all tyres looked like they had 2000 ks on them. not a hilux and thats the front of the car Quote
JiP Posted October 8, 2008 Author Report Posted October 8, 2008 (edited) Corolla wagon. Cause thats the only wagon released in oz in ages. *Edit* Not Tabbie's new car? ! Edited October 8, 2008 by JiP_01 Quote
philbey Posted October 8, 2008 Report Posted October 8, 2008 Well I got my red, 3 door, 1.3 Festiva up to 165 and this one was a 5 door, 1.5. So I assume an extra 15km/h isn't that impossible. only 15kmh, but you'll need about 20% more horsepower to do it! Mind you the 5 door might be more aerodynamic! Quote
JiP Posted October 8, 2008 Author Report Posted October 8, 2008 Nope, they are the same. The 5 more may be heavier as it has more doors with sliding windows, intrusion bars and a tacho. So that could explain the engine increase. I do think the speed is possible. I currently have access to a 5 door but won't be testing it sorry. :cool: Quote
JiP Posted October 8, 2008 Author Report Posted October 8, 2008 I've always seen a Kluger as a 4x4 Quote
Tume Posted October 8, 2008 Report Posted October 8, 2008 I was thinking Kluger. I reckon they are more wagon then 4x4. Quote
