Our mate Freak (who frequents these forums sometimes) is starting a web mag called Toyota Tuner.
Anyway, my car was featured in the first issue just for content... hehe
Anyway, check it out at:
http://toyotatuner.dyndns.org/
Any comments about the mag are welcome, I'll send him a link to this thread and I'm sure he'll reply in person.

It just took me over 1 minute to even load the first page! It seems to be hosted on a person computer using a cable connection? Am I correct?

 Hey guys!
Thanks Nark!
Yes - I have the server (linux server for www porting) physically here, and my connection is a "light" cable connection - upload at aboout dialup speed. This has been fine for my personal surfing needs, however I delayed the upgrade to faster ISP based on bandwidth demands for the site.
BTW - apparently www.toyotatuner.net has made it through the filterdown for hosts.txt on www, so less to type! As the hits/day increase (hopefully) I plan to upgrade the connection to the next step - 128bit, should allow upload of about 64k/sec. After that I'm looking at commercial DSL before investing in T1 (a level up as demand requires!)
The mag has less content than planned - at least 3 'correspondants' or contributors have delayed or simply not provided info. heh.
I appreciate the positive feedback, and hope to see more views!

, nice to finally see some more pics of it. Good idea, contents not too bad I'm sure more will come with time. Only complaint is its pretty slow to load, I'm on a 512Kb ADSL connection and it took about 30secs for any page to load, not sure if its just me or not 
Anyway good one!!
