Lets hope it’s true, and Yokohama Australia bring them here https://www.whichcar.com.au/news/yokohama-releases-cult-hero-retro-rubber-for-80s-jdm-icons https://translate.google.com/translate?hl=en&sl=ja&u=http://www.advan.com/goods/online-shop/hf_typed.html&prev=search I would encourage everyone to contact Yokohama Australia and say what a great idea it is and how many they are likely to sell. Back in the 80’s, Yokies were the only Tyre to have on your hotted up Jap car, especially if you were in to club sport

Hey everyone I would like to have another opinion or 2 as to what my troubles might be. I took my 79 corolla out last night and it seemed to be misfiring. But this was only for about 5 minutes of driving. When we got on the highway it come good. But it has done this twice or three times now, and I would like to know what you guys think it might be. Cheers 79rolla

Hi everyone just wondering if anyone here has used the vacuum block off plank on there 4age and did you notice any difference

Came across this March 1968 Modern Motor magazine advertisement, this afternoon; which will bring a smile to some faces. Now Toyota Corolla 1100 gives you the choice - all synco 4-speed gearbox, or brand new-fully automatic Toyoglide transmission ! Slip the stubbyToyoglide lever into "drive". No need to change for traffic lights or hills. Automatic kick-down gives first gear acceleration for any emergency. Slip into "L" and Corolla holds first gear. You can't change from neutral to reverse accidentally. "P" for Park brake on the transmission. Flashing performance from Corolla's 60 horsepower engine. 36 m.p.g. plus fuel ecomomy. Built-in heater/ demistor .…

Hi, I own a 2001 Corolla Sportivo factory turbo. I bought it off marketplace and found that the previous owner of it had installed an aftermarket catch can system. The car also made a loud whistling noise on startup. Suspecting a PCV valve issue, i replaced the valve and also reinstalled the toyota factory catch can and this fixed the issue. However, I'm not sure how it is meant to be connected and if these cars came with a different pcv valve to the non turbo versions. There is a third small hole in the catch can and from pictures of other peoples engine bay it appears as though a hose should be connected to this going somewhere, but I'm not sure whe…

Hi m restoring a ke20 and i have a few wiring problems no headlights or wipers i;m ultimately looking for someone Brisbane Southside that i can pay to fix it as i think its beyond my capabilities and does anyone kno if new light Switches are available tħanks in advance ric

Need an opinion on why my 79 ke55 isnt getting spark. I have checked everything that could stop it from sparking. Resistor, power to coil, all ground wires, all fuses. Everything has been looked at and done. Replaced coil with 3 other coils, and all show no spark at all. It gets no spark out of coil. But it is getting power to negative side on every coil i have tried with only the negative wire being connected. So I want to see what you guys think it could be. Cheers 79rolla

Hey folks, hope everyone’s safe. I don't know if this topic has been opened yet, but I wanted to share a recent experience I had with my car's wheel spacers. I installed a new set of Brembo calipers and HRE rims, but they are scratching the rims because they are too big. I already had them installed and didn't want to spend money on another set of calipers and wheels. So I searched on Google for a solution and finally decided to install a set of spacers. The effect is very nice. Not only did it solve the scratching problem, but my wheels were flush with the fenders. The whole car looks fuller and is very stable while driving. Now I'm cruis…

Hey Gurus Has anyone successfully put a modern auto behind a T series engine. I am considering a K to T series engine swap in the Princess' KE55 Hardtop but she flatly refuses to go manual. So I am looking for options that are better than the old 3 speed typically behind the T engine. Regards Big G
