I have used that on few occasions but on longer translations conserning cars its usually useless/ little help.

Today ordereded 2pcs of 135/80R15 Toyo 310 tires to front. No I just need to find 2 4"x15" rims to these tires. They should be found on as replacement wheels on stock cars.

Also I have purchased a DRL light set to front.

Today notised that if you like to push and glide with this 3L you only need to push the gas pedal. If you want to have maximum use of engine brake you just need to tap once to the brakes and ECU calculates which gear gives least braking while still on 0 fuel consumtion. Usually the change point is about 1000 rpm.

I love this car more every day!.
