  1. same here. going on the "how to get there" instructions, i reckon i walked a few streets over from it :(
  2. Hmmm thats cool. Sure the prices are a little high, but damn id have one.
  3. sounds fuel pump related to me. my car was doing this crap after ~20mins of driving, leave it sit for 5mins, would go for another 20mins. fuel pump was had it.
  4. Happy Festivus!
  5. That white one has certainly had its day! Hope it was cheap.
  6. You know 95db is twice as loud as 92 yeah? If its just a stock engine throw on the biggest proper muffler you can fit.
  7. what exactly do you want to know? here you go this has a 253 apparently.
  8. i love the ae111? bug eye corolla that is a sports wagon lookin thing. oh and that yellow ae82 2 door is tops too!
  9. The blue bird toe rod ends (taper) fit in the s13 hubs so why aren't you using them?
  10. i tend to agree with you. but on the other hand, its not doing the police any favours really. decision: Do i take my car to QR racetrack where i can legally drift and have fun (or even just watch), but there is probably going to be a defect station? (where i might get harassed and fined even though the car is legal) Or do i take my car to the top of mt nebo at night time where there is slim to no chance of a defect station. You can see why people take the second option :S
  11. nah don't go synthetic, waste of money.
  12. "Think about how stupid the average person is, and realise half of them are stupider than that"
  13. I think i saw an advertisement for that valvoline stuff at autobahn for $12? Though i usually go penrite for no real reason, hpr30 for old cars.
  14. Read my signature, thats why it won't work :P What your taking about is the beginning of a civil war....
  15. Updates! everyone likes updates. spot the new shiny bit in this photo? Ignore the power lead.... Head is back on as of last night. have had a set back, grandpa was for some reason against the idea of coolant, only used water. Therefore, anything copper/brass in the cooling system is rusted...badly.... so ive got a few bits i need to replace, the main one being this coolant manifold thing that connects to the back of the water pump. Here is a reproduction one, but for the price I'm not too keen, ill try and track down a decent OEM one i think. http://www.suzistore.com.au/shopexd.asp?id=441 Radiator is pretty had it as well, on the hunt for a second hand one atm. water pump appears to be in ok condition, just full of muck. ill try clean it before i get a new one. Luckily the head and block appear to be pretty good for corosion, a bit of evidence of it, but quite minor.
  16. Very cool! Enjoy it mate.
  17. Katrina bought some expensive dress from myer, price tag of $280, on sale for $180. Black and white. Wore it once, took it to the drycleaner, the colour ran. The white bit is not exactly white anymore, more white with black smudges. Not even a big price tag buys quality.
  18. I watched that mighty mods episode as well. I was quite suprised how well that turned out to be honest! especially how much they spent on it i can't think of a way it would be illegal as such, but i can only imagine it will attract the wrong attention.
  19. R32 = IRS ke30 = live axel. Not sure how you would use an R32 one.
  20. yeah i only had the 3.9 wiht my 4k 4 speed and t50 5 speed (195/50/R15 tyres) it was alright for highway and putting about, could have done with a 4.1 for enthusiastic driving though. Especially up hills with the 4k!
  21. Good fun it was! Thanks for including a non corolla:p I got some epic drivers arm that's for sure
  22. i don't get it... Distributers are set and forget on these things. what was "almost touching"? its supposed to be almost touching as its a hall effect type thing if i recall. if the head has been shaved in its life, then this will effect the cam belt/timing markings as the distance between the crank and cam change
  23. yup, 830 i be there
  24. i have a feeling this is already somehow wired into the system. starts on 12V that chunky resistor drops it to 9V or something.
  25. can anyone tell me what front grill/bonnet/whatever is on this ke35? is it an overseas only thing?
