oh yeah! Lux is a beast! drove my dad's Lux, was waiting for the lights. then when i took off, I accidently gave it a little too much and the car just Roared and squealed off the line smoking. But I love being so high in a ute like that makes me feel like a monster truck! LOL!

well i love go kart racing

so im just going to figure this is like that hahaha!

fuddbutter · 07-27-2012, 02:28 AM

test driving the BRZ was odd, getting out of my lux into it, if i sat on the floor in the lux i would still be higher than the BRZ haha.

The 86/BRZ has slightly better power to weight than the lux, but the lux has it all over the 86 on torque (about 380nm)

add in no weight over the back wheels

yeah, it's why my dad throws concrete slabs at the back to keep it steady. 4WD is just too fuel consuming, I told my dad that it'll be roughly equivalent to the amount of fuel used when carry concrete slabs around. He does not agree...

The HiLux is an awesome ute! I love it! Just needs bigger tyres! >: D

Yea stockies are a little small... needs something moderate like this.

fuddbutter · 07-27-2012, 04:56 AM
