  1. i planing on getting a 4age but i want the car to be safe and i adjusted the breaks the back left is good and the back right is pretty much touching the drum and does not move

     

    if i had a little crack or some thing in my master cylinder would that do the same only asking cause i was going to get them and put them on and work from there

  2. what type of car mate? car is toyota corolla ae80

     

     

     

    Do the brakes not stop the car as they should? no the bearly slow the car

    Does the pedal go down very far? pedal goes to the floor but if i pump it the work but goes back to normal but both front work and only back left back right does not stop that has no breaks what so eva

    Does the handbrake work? hand break works but only left side

    Can you lock the brakes up if you push hard? Which wheels lock, front or back? no they don't

    When you get in, press the pedal and hold it down while you start the car. Does the pedal suddenly sink down as the motor starts? yeas it does

    Does it lose fluid so you have to top it up? no i don't

     

    also i been thinkin of disc breaks on the back if i need new booster and or cylinder would this be the best time to do it ?

  3. hey guys my back left break was locking up so i took it to torque tyres to fix it got new cylinders for the drums and now when i push the breaks i have no power and there no noise so i was wounding if you guys would know whats wrong?

     

    i was thinking maybe the didn't bleed them probably but i have a feeling i might need a new break booster and master cylinder

    it seems like i can never win with this car

  4. Engine:4a carby stock

     

    Exterior: white with black bonnet

     

    interior: blue and black seat covers red sorry just forgot bout them

     

    Suspension: stock

     

    OK been looking for a place to get the exhaust done everlast was my first choice but they was in tea tree plaza and wanted 350-400 for it. found other places closer but had a look at there work and didn't like it and they wanted 600 and more so i think i go with everlast. i going to get a 2" cat back exhaust with a dump tip only cause i not in to cannons i sorry guys but i don't like the whole body kits and cannon exhaust.

     

    also just finished my sound system i have a kenwood head unit and 4" kenwood speakers hidden in the dash like stocks and 6"in the rear parshallshulf (sorry if i miss spelled it spelling my week point) and thats it

  5. You'd have to make sure its not clutch drag from the clutch not releasing properly. If you wait 5seconds with the clutch held down, does it still crunch?? If it doesn't its just residualy spin in the layshaft, but if it does its clutch drag.

     

    I assume they're hydraulic, and if either cylinder is not holding pressure properly they will not pull the pressure plate right off the clutch plate so it will keep the gearbox spinning a little. As first is a synchro gear you won't notice a little clutch drag, but reverse is straigh-cut and it crunches easily.

     

    I can't think of any car of the many I've owned that crunched into reverse unless there was a problem with the clutch... Another one was lack of grease on the splines at the clutch plate- it stopped the clutch freeing completely on an old Skyline I had.

     

     

    i try hold the clutch tomorrow morning when i wake up and see if it does it but the other way work fine

  6. Still basically the same engine though, just 300cc larger. And just as unlikely to get "amazing" gains from purely changing plug and leads, unless the existing leads are made from string and the plugs are Bic lighters.

    well bout 4months ago i did a ohm test on my leads and one lead was 1.7 ohm's and the rest was 1.6-7 k ohm's is that good or bad i got told it good but the 1.7ohm was very good had no resistance but i don't know much bout that i still learning

     

    sorry if i spelled ohm wrong

  7. "Way" quicker? What drugs are you smoking/injecting? The amount of power you would gain on a 2AC from high-power plugs and leads is minimal at best, and more likely nothing other than a placebo/+10kw on the clueless-bum-dyno. It's a freaking standard 1.3L SOHC carby 2AC for crying out loud.

    no it a standard 1.6 carby the old owner changed the engine

  8. hey guys well as you all know i have a Toyota corolla ae80-82 hatch her names Emma and when i got her she was stock as stock could be so what i do i did her up a bit painted the bonnet put a spoiler on her new dusk caps new cd player new speedo (twin cam one) new speakers.
