Default No Place for 60-70 Year Olds

You missed the 60-70 year old category in the polling, but it looks like the bulk of those on this forum are under 30.

Regardless whatevs

Ethan Higgins - 17
Mckinney, Texas

My first car have not touched it yet mods from previous owner were:
BC Racing Coilovers
2.5 Inch Straight Pipe
19" Varestoen ES1 wheels
Traction Rods
1997 Side Skirts
1997 Rear Bumper

Since then it is back on stock tires and I was forced to put a muffler on it

Hoping to do a manual swap either W58 or R154 when I have funds
Right now im finishing my private pilots license which is taking all my time and money

ETC Button: driver selectable, holds gears longer and stiffens the suspension great for cornering at high speeds.

EMV Screen: the colour touch screen displays and controls most of everything else in the car, it is also adjustable with brightness, hue and colour on a adjustable screen.
EMV Screens: 1. Air Conditioning, Climate controls, fan speed and positions the air is directed.
2. CD Player, choose which CD out of 12, repeat, Scip Track, Equaliser, programmable Sound Adjustment with Echo etc.
3. Radio, chose which frequency search etc.
4. Fuel management, see the klm's per litre in real time or over a longer period, gives full calculation of time since motor started, klm's driven and fuel used for that trip stored for 5 trips and displayed on start up or can be requested
5. Service reminder screen, reminds you when Oil, Oil Filter, Fuel Filter should be changed driver programmable.
6. Calendar, full calendar year to year since the vehicle was commissioned, the calendar can be searched all the way back to delivery to the first owner, it is in Japanese so I cant read it. Birthdays, Anniversaries etc can also be programed in to appear every year without having to remember.
7. Phone Numbers, addresses etc. are all able to be saved on the same screen.
8 Cassette Player, choose what track, fast forward, rewind etc.
9.GPS, the original GPS screens are still there, everything you would want to see and programe in but it was only for Japan so the two CD GPS unit was removed, it was fun to look at but useless.
10.TV full Colour tuner for Japan and in NTSC, it was converted to be used on Analogue Pal stations in Australia but that is now digital and another conversion is required.
11. Diagnosis screen can be accessed if you know the code to get in, it shows all error codes, for every on board computer and engine management as well. Many things can be altered in this screen but only for those who know what they are doing.
12. Time, Date, Aircon, Radio, CD, or Cassette on or off are shown on a less detailed screen if desired.
Well that's all I can think of at the moment as I am in Thailand and the car is 7000 klm away, but it's not bad for a vehicle that will turn 28 this year. The Rand D that went into the UZZ32 will never be matched it was the Toyota Flag Ship and with a price of 8,000,000 Yen at the time,and it was a kings ransom for us mortals that would have been four years wages for me and that's without Import Duties and Luxury Car Tax included, and I still had to live bring up a family, pay a Mortgage and keep the car on the road.
