Here tis

Would you believe i emailed toyota and they sent it to me. Same with all 3 pdf files ive posted here. Sweet huh. They wouldnt clarify what the VIN number means as far as the chronology of the model though. Whether its a straight numbered sequence or what they couldnt tell me. Ive got a color version of the photocopied spirit brochure that i found on the net and ill post it here too.

As i thought. Where do you get an epc? Ebay? Off the back of a lorry? Here is more toyota corolla photocopiesl Yay. Matt 27006680.pdf 27006680_1.pdf

EPC? Some kind of parts catalogue?

Toyota sent me this today. Havent seen it on here before so here it is. Matt 27006680_2.pdf

Ask someone who tunes aftermarket ecus.

Wire 240 volts thru your panels.

What a gluttonous waste of resources, lets play count the deadly sins: -Gluttony -pride -greed -US citizenship...

don't the cops harass you there? Defects and whatnot? ;)

;)

Spotted a nice light metallic blue KE70 with rims, tint, lowered and what sounded like a twin cam cruising up toward mt cootha in toowoong, brissy today. Exchanged waves. Looked well sorted. Wondering if hes a member...

Hey Katey yours reminds me of a mini gt Falcon. Very straight. Gonna do a conversion or anything?

Arent electronic dizzys less tuning when installed? No more points etc. Wouldnt really know how to install it though.

Helpful. Sweet. I heard that speed cameras have to be within a certain range of a location where a fatal accident has occurred. Do you know if this is true? Could be good grounds to contest a fine. Matt

So will you share these loopholes or what? K.I.P.

How about some pics of the rona And I don't really notice too many others looking at my car, but the other day a guy in an old celica the same color as my car (centre red) buzzed along next to me for a while and sussed the car out. I suppuse he was another toyota enthusiast. Peace

Plz add my ae71 Spirit. Vin 9705910. Plated July 84. Ceers, pix to come soon.

I'm in too. Not so keen to spectate, i'd rather be driving tho. MAtt

Nope a sigma, you read it right. Theoretically they could be in any car that they own personally or that has been permanently seized under the new qld hooning laws. Matt

That has never happened to me. If you know the system and how to shall we say, exploit it, (just like police, lawyers or politicians do as part of their jobs), you will b fine. Knowledge is power. If you don't have knowledge, you are helpless. If you are getting pulled over and harrassed then get smart and buy a dictaphone and camera to keep in your car, and everytime you are pulled over document what happens. After say 3 pullovers you will have a case for harassment and you wll become shall we say, far too much work/risky for the cops to bother with. If you do not work within the rules that govern us all then you are at fault. You must know the rules to be able to work the system. That is my point.

listen to loveKe70, if you hate it you need to be out by say august, thats what i did. IT @ uq, hated every second of it. IT i mean not UQ. Now I'm a cabinetmaker. And i love it. Good luck and eat at womens college. 6 dollar buffet for non residents. 300 females for company. sweet deal. MAtt

Sorry to bring this back on topic but there is another sus-as-can be D car getting around brisbane. A red 2.6 Sigma sedan. And i heard that he tails you until you go faster, then books your gullible ass. Having beaten a bent copper in court i can give you this advice. BRAKE CHECK! If he hits you, you could advertise your car with Paint Job by Queensland police as a feature. If he hits you its his fault. In any case,!as long as his lights arent on (don't forget the witnesses). No matter what claims are made you only have to convince the magistrate, and don't speak to police unless you have a clever, legally valid point to make. Take a sincere tone too (mask your hatred as respect). This goes for roadside stops too, as they all wear personal voice recorders while on donut duty. As you can imagine, they will try everything to discredit you, bluff you, or at least scare you out of fighting your citations. The guy who tried to screw me did me for 135 kay an hour, having radared me at only 112. Scumbag indeed. Was driving a lowered commodoore ute and he must have thought he could lump me into a category with all hoons everywhere. He even falsified evidence (phoney transcript of our convo). He tried to make me sound like i dropped out of school at age 7. Like turning a sentence like "is that one of the new sports magnas, you know the 4wd ones?" to "eh bro, is dat wun of dem sporty magnas?'. Complete Bullshit. Ultimately the police prosecutor gave me an apology. You also need to understand that the freedom of information legislation is fantastic. I applied for and received the audio tape, the transcription (always ask for the tape and transcribe it yourself!), and the video of the stoppage (which ultimately saved me thanks to some speed = distance/time). Remember it is not too much work if you can embarrass the traffic police. My only regret is not having him publicly shamed and thrown out. So if youre out there SENIOR ʇ~~ɔSTABLE WHITTETT you are an asshole and id love to shag your mother. And my 2c worth, police are like all mortals. There are good ones and some real pricks. Peace

I think i can see one of the bolt holes it was in on your pics, it will be in my engine bay photos, but they are low res, lhs as you look at it, in front of the strut tower. i suspect it is just a bolt on aftermarket item. Oh and my dealer was Martin Jonkers @ Morayfield rd Caboolture, if your interested. I have a booklet filled in with the first owners handwriting for waxoyl rust protection, whatever that is. It claims to entitle you to free rust repairs to the value of 2000 us dollars, with a bunch of bullshit fine print... And one thing you can bolt on is a hopper stoppers brake upgrade kit, which the brochure for is on my thread, page 1. A little pricey but i believe it is engineered already, not sure though.

Solid advice. Is that yellow paint nice and thick still, or can you see some undercoat? looks well polished.

Thats your perogative, i was thinking racer only, but i just wouldnt want to get that little use out of it (serious time issues for me in the future) and realistically, id just end up killing all those nice things I'm buying faster than i could affordably replace them. Racing shit is a level beyond what I'm gonna get prolly.
