OK, before anyone says i dont like Toyotas, i have owned 12 of them from memory, from a hun\mble KE10 with a worked 4K, a TE27 Levin with a warm 2TG and flares, to an old MS55 Crown wagon with a V8. LOVE my TOYOTAS. In the early days, some smart arse( read boring old fart) decided Australia did not need the "Hotter" cars Toyoya offered, hence NO large imports of the TE27 Levins, NO large imports of TA22's with 2 TG's, and the like. We got the boring overhead valve jobbies. Look at the Sprinter. Sexy body, with the crappy powerless single cam donk. Hey, the yanks had the option of factory body kits for the sprinters, even if some of the cars came out with overhead cam donks. It is rather sad. I mean, WE got the avalon, and not the RWD equivalent. Bloody bean counters. They seem to know what we need, not what we drool over, and what we would enjoy driving. It sounds like a turnaround by someone, wanting to enter the V8 racing, but until Toyota Australia offer us cars brand new, that excite us, i wont hold my breath waiting for a V8 Toyota in the V8 HOLDORD/ Forden Racing. And, one other thing, we dont want to confuse the fans with a third or fourth make of blob racing with a V8 around the track. Sheesh, the Holdens and Fords now look pretty close to each other, only real way of differentiating them is the badge, sometimes. Just my 2 cents worth. Andrij [Report message to a moderator]
