    Default Does not belong?

    Just found this...

    1992 Toyota Corolla SE AE92 5dr Hatchback Manual 4cyl 1.6L For Sale - uniquecarsales.com.au

    Funny from word go... BUT... have a look at the interior shot...

    How out of place does that steering wheel look!

    Like... wtf happened there?

    lol.

    Anyone else found stuff like this? Just something that stands out and is blatantly out of place.

    LOL!! That bloody TV screen and the steering wheel look beyond rediculous. Other than that, it doesn't look too bad for how they have done it.

    But yes, the steering wheel and TV look absoloutely retarded.

    Also, "supercharged turbo"?? Well what is it? Supercharged or turbo? I know a charger is a form of turbo, but it sounds stupid when put together. Seems he has lost his license too, good chance it's had the shit thrashed out of it too.

    We are looking at the same car with the same steering wheel right?

    How can you possibly thing that steering wheel looks good in that car?

    And on top of that the car is actually "Supercharged Turbo"... interesting... good to know the owner knows what he is talking about...

    I understand some people might think that car is great... sure... what ever floats your boat...

    But there is no way... someone can tell me that the steering wheel looks good... unless they burst out laughing right after saying such silly things.

    Nope, the steering wheel DOES look stupid. Stands out like dogs balls stuck to a whitewall with rainbow gaffer tape.

    Why the **** would you retrim the whole interior in blue and cream tan or whatever it is, and not buy an Autotechnica steering wheel and have that retrimmed too??

    Silly kids.

    Hi Cobez

    You can have both turbocharging and supercharging at the same time. The Golf 1.4 GT has a turbo/supercharbed engine. It's pretty tricky engineering though and the engine would need to have been designed around all that boost. And I guess you would need a pretty special engineering shop to sort it out and make it work.

    Hi Calaber

    Can't see a T28 in that engine bay, let alone a blower. I'm sure the T28 is tucked away neatly, but i highly doubt that person would have room for a blower and piping to be tucked away in that tiny engine bay as well. I was referring to this car specifically.

    Yep, fair enough. I couldn't be bothered trying to sort out the details in the photo, and I agree with you that it's really unlikely that this car has both.

    Yeah pretty much, fair enough if it was a big engine bay with more room to tuck them both away if the builder of the car was good with his work and COULD cleverly hide them out of sight, but i highly doubt it. It would be a pain in the ass enough to hide the T28 out of sight with such little room.

    *takes a bow* lol, well dogs balls stuck to a whitewall with rainbow gaffer tape would look more appealing than half the colours people paint their ricers.

    The 4A-GZE was a factory 1.6L roots-style supercharged engine.

    It's popular for turboing because it's boost-ready (forged bits, oil squirters etc). People quite often bin the supercharger and put a turbo on running twice the boost.

    Incidentally, that car just screams UULLEEEHHHH!!!

    dont see the point in making a thread about someones steering wheel that doesnt look that bad.

    All ill say is, stock front brakes, upgraded rear. Why bother?

    Could be pushing close to it actually. I've been in an AE82 with a 4A-GZE running about 14psi and it is ****ing quick. They are very light cars.
