  1. Looks great! Good job! It's good, I guess, when your hands grow from where they're supposed to, not from where they grow in my case)))) I woulda welded the wheel to the rear bumper By the way, many Pathies imported from Japan come with guards almost exactly like that, made especially for Pathies. Though ordering it would be a bit more expensive than welding a Land Rover guard onto a pathy)))
  2. hi! I currently drive a '93 Pathy, though I dream of the latest model Pathy... I have several pix of it, they constantly change on my desktop, so I kind of look at the dream every time I see an empy desktop without any programs open... and I think "well, work toward your dream"))) and I start working.... or I just open an Explorer window with this forum :type:
  3. congratulations and welcome!)))
  4. Let me correct your message. Not probably the greatest, but definitely THE BEST -bounce-
  5. A wonderful toy))) I also love all these high-tech toys, so I understand what you feel. You're probably right about naming your firstborn after Garmin)))
  6. I'm a 21st century Russian Don't know... for some reason I don't like vodka...
  7. I like dark beer, but cannot drink much of it... too heavy.. I prefer light brands... most of all I like Japanese beer (Asahi or Sapporo), believe me it is even better than famous German brands. I can be in one of the two conditions: craving for beer or drinking beer. No third option )))) EDIT: yeah, I will have fun with my party -alcohol- ... if I don't have to go to work on Saturday
  8. Good job!)) I also help people on the road all the time)) It's sad that people often just stand around and watch instead of helping.
  9. I used to work for a company that caught and produced shrimp... employees had a lot of free shrimp available... well, you know, at some point I even started to hate shrimp))) I still have a friend in that company, so from time to time I buy some shrimp from him for about $3 per kilo. Actually, I have 2 kilos at home right now... so as soon as its Friday, I'll have a little beer+shrimp party)) By the way, what is your favorite beer?
  10. One of the easiest things to cook 1. You take A LOT of beer. and I mean A LOT of it))) 2. You take several kilos of shrimp 3. you then eat the shrimp and drink the beer (not vice versa ))))
  11. uh... well... *types "www.google.ru"* max power 100 ps (73.55 kw) / 4000 rpm maximum torque 22.0 kg*m (215.75 N*m) / 2200 rpm does it mean anything to you?))))))) I don't understand anything in these numbers... I had many practical opportunities to experience that diesel engine is better than gasoline on low rpm, when towing or just trying to make your way out of mud or trying to climb up a hill, but I don't understand why 100ps \ 4000 rpm is good ))) Anyway, these numbers were taken from an unofficial site, so don't know if they're accurate.
  12. I wonder what would you say about a pathy with TD27T... you'd probably think this thing is totally unable to accelerate)))))))) When I am driving up a hill and a pathy passes me by a) easily, as if I was just parked on the roadside in total silence compared to the TD27 roar)) then I know it was a VG30 pathy))) And I start biting the steering wheel in hate and envy But then I think, well, I spend as much on gas with a 2.7L turbo-diesel engine as I did when I had a 1.6L gasoline Vitara... then I remind myself how powerful diesels are on low RPM... and approximately at this stage I feel envy disappear and I'm a happy TD27T owner again
  13. Bob, you made a right choice))) Welcome!
  14. Wrong)) It is actually quite funny ))) Thanks for sharing))
  15. I'm sorry, but I was laughing out loud right here in the office while reading your story ))) Though I understand what you felt... I don't know how I haven't broken my toes yet, because I hit different obstacles at home for so many times))) Once I was 100% certain that when I'd look at my toe I'd see only half of it left
  16. Now that's better, I am not used to seeing pathies without a clinometer))) By the way, when I looked at your dashboard I thought "what a strange pathy, 100 km\h is a top speed... my diesel pathy has a maximum of 160 km\h..." And only then I noticed it was mph, not kph shown on that scale.))))
  17. It is my second Terrano with TD27T, but I've never changed the oil-filter myself )) I just drive to the authorized Valvoline dealer, pay for the oil, and they change it for free... well, not for free I guess, the price of work is included in the oil price)) I use Valvoline MaxLife Diesel, semi-synthetic, as it is said in the ad, "designed specifically for diesel engines with singificant mileage" or something like that. The total price (approx. 8 litres of oil, an oil filter, and an air filter) is USD100. While they are changing oil, I am sitting nearby drinking coffee)))
  18. Agree, I wanted to ask the same question when I saw the video)))
  19. That's sad. Sorry for your Pathy. It's good that everybody is OK.)) The girl was lucky that you were not going fast or even speeding. I once saw a TV report on a similar accident here in Russia, but the speed was much higher as it happened on a highway. Oh, and the pathy was the WD21 model. The other car was something like that Mustang in size. The result was everybody OK in the pathy and two dead people in the other car. Moreover,the other car was actually torn into two halves by the pathy.
  20. Another surprise)) My question about modding was intended to be a joke, but now I see I was wrong)))
  21. No, I wasn't ready for that))))))) Is she going to mod it a lot? )))
