oh!... no wonder lar... i didn't know Yamaha is under Toyota. Wow! that means Toyota owns alot of company as well like Daihatsu too?? (Passo - Boon - Myvi )

Good info there & atleast this Toyota thread is on the track today  unlike me, andy & sonic spamming happily in here  wakaka!

yea, they also own Subaru as well
yes, lots of money, that's why they are now the number 1 auto maker in the world now.
haha, i find spamming is ok, just that we need to throw in some toyota info along the way. 

seriously......!!! Subaru is also under Toyota!!!  unbelieveble 

no wonder Toyota stopped producing performance models
thats how the unker cars started  muuahaha..!

altezza is actually under toyota. It comes with 5-speed auto (with manual selection) or a  6-speed manual transmission.
The lexus model is the IS200 or IS 300. Even though the IS200 shares the same platform, the 2.0 engine is different to the one in the altezza. The altezza has the 3SGE (210bhp) dual VVT-i 4-cylinder engine developed and tuned by yamaha. The one in the IS200 is a 6 cylinder 1G-FE engine (160bhp).

Though when purchasing the SXE10, it's always better to buy the altezza because of the engine - BEAMS (Breakthrough Engine with Advanced Mechanism System). If u bought the IS200 for the same price as the RS200, then u have wasted your money

Here's a video on how the Dual VVT-i system works. The 3SGE engine comes with a Dual VVT-i that adjusts both the intake and exhaust camshafts. Ever heard an altezza roar? It really reminiscent the sound of a 4AGE AE86 at full throttle.

hehe, yea, it's because yamaha is owned by toyota corp in japan. Amazing isn't it? It's because of their experience with high revving superbike engines, that's the reason why the 3SGE was tuned by yamaha. Since they own the company, might as well put them to work rite?

THe IS200 comes with a 6-speed manual and for the auto, it's a boring 4-speeder. The IS300 on the other hand was only available for the US and Europe market, i'm not too familiar with the transmission for that model. I think Australia had a few imported or transplanted

It's a pleasure to share, not many enthusiast know about the 3SGE much, sadly because the half cut is pretty expensive and not much rear wheel drive cars around to put em in. I know a lot of ppl in M'sia would pick the SR20 over the 3SGE because it's a cheaper way of getting more horsepower.

he, there was a rav4 first gen variant with the beams engine inside making about almost 200hp ...nice .
yamaha ? piano`s come to mind .. lol

the youtube has shown a man's wild dreams!  wahaha! great advertisement

hahaha, post your car pic and it'll be there as well 

no car... as ah liew said... wakakaka...
Dont want parents waste money on unnecessary thing. My place near bus terminal and LRT, might as well fully utilize it. haha

If I want a car also, I only one petrol car= Toyota Chaser Tourer V. JZX 100. No others petrol cars.
No Chaser, I'll opt for other diesel cars. XD
By the time I working, 2nd hand virgin D-Max should be quite cheap already. XD

lawyer take LRT & bus seems abit...  embarassing....

oh well, we all gotta start somewhere. Ooo, Chaser eh? nice, 1JZ engine, tu-boh. But those are rare and parts are hard to come by. So be prepared. Hmm, kinda like the altezza, also hard to get parts. And if they are available, have to pay premium.

diesel cars eh? what makes u want to buy diesel? my fren had a hilux, the latest gen, he's switched to a fortuner now. Maintenance is really expensive for diesel due to the bad quality that we get here in m'sia. Your fuel filter will clog in no time.

how embarassing?
A car is to carry one from point A to point B, not as a symbol of status.
BTW, I'm not a lawyer, not even a law student... lol
Yeah. Chaser, with 1JZ-GTE + VVTi... Woot!!!
I also like the Altezza, but that was long time ago before I meet the Chaser. haha

Diesel coz I love the torquey characteristic. Can car kao ppl. XD
Somemore good FC. XD
Fuel filter clog? Depends on the brand of diesel used. 
By the time I buy one, diesel here also upgraded to Euro 3M already.

let's hope so, i really pity those 530tdi bimmers or those CDI mercs running on our diesel. All spewing out black smog. Really no class

can`t blame them though

ha? Got meh?
I only see them spewing out white fumes... 

white fumes when the car still new, give it another yr and it'll be coughing out black smoke. I had one 530tdi cucuk me in the highway, all i could see was a black fog behind it. I thought it was on fire and moved out of the way. In true fact, he was trying to tekan with me, I only realized that when he passed me and all I saw was black smoke behind him like his backside was on fire.
I just couldn't help laughing

ZZ... OMG 
From a symbol of status to a symbol of laughter... lol

Even a properly maintained Datsun 120Y is better than it. lol
