  1. doooood that f@$king sucks! I can't understand why it would let go like that. I had new rings and bearings done before it went in so they could only be 6 months old at the most. Super gay :) :cool: :yes: :( :(
  2. I think deep down, we're all in love with something that fits in our palm. :y:
  3. Motorkhana kicks ass! I had so much fun today. I'll be back for the next one. We had some problems earlier in the day with the front guards having some clearance issues with the tyres but we found a mop in the shed that did the trick. The first few runs were the usual sideways antics but after i realised a 1942 auto honda civic wagon was beating me, out came the race face and it was time to deliver some corolla dominance :y: Funny how a little less right foot = about a 3 second drop in times. I even got a little shard of glass for 2nd most improved throughout the day and my co-driver Andy got "Most determined" :P Determined to kill my motor.
  4. 75% chance i'll be there :rocknroll: It's been over 12 months since my last motorkhana.
  5. Good day all. Nice to meet you all and say hi to some old faces. The turnout was heaps more than I was expecting, theres definitly some hot rollas getting around now. Thanks to Justin for running the BBQ and to whoever supplied food and drinks! Super Jamie: Thanks! Glad to see my work is appreciated :rocknroll: It takes a lot of half assed work and zip ties to acheive that.
  6. Levin being the greek word for lightning. Whats also interesting is that trueno is the greek word for thunder.
  7. A lot of old toyotas have a name that relates to part of a flower. Corona, Crown etc.
  8. No matter how many times you see it. It still kicks ass. Put it in backwards, then stand on it.
  9. The corolla has the factory AM radio.... Which doesent work. The cressida has a dodgy Jap double DIN CD/MD player.... Neither of which work properly. So its just local radio stations. I find myself singing to myself a lot when driving. :(
  10. Yeah I didnt get it at all either. They're basically saying that corollas are boring shopping trolleys... Never fear! I'm doing my part to dispell the myth. :(
  11. Heh, I don't know whos dumber. Me for suggesting to paint them yellow or Josh for actually going through with it.
  12. Heh, they were actually gold before.
  13. The later model with the bolt on ball joint are longer than the earlier press on style. I used the earlier ones in my AE86 and it gave me about 2.5 degrees.
  14. Hey don't knock the volley's I wear these things everywhere.
  15. To me they didnt make a noticable difference, but it was free so I didnt care.
  16. Clown: If the wheel sits too close to the indicator stalk, try looking for an AE86 boss. They use a similar steering column and the boss should be longer. Xany: The splines are the same but the little holes for the plastic knobs to make the self cancelling indicators work are different on some models. I drilled a couple of little holes in my AE86 boss kit to bolt it onto the cressida. otherwise it works fine.
  17. Heh I use an AW11 one in the KE70. Shits over the stock wheel.
  18. OMFG!!! I thought these were discontinued? I've been chasing a set forever. My CA18 hachi had a set of weak ass 14x6 +20 hayashi's. I've been longing for a set of 15x9's forever. Not a good photo. But still :jamie:
  19. I wouldnt stress too much about the exhaust, its still looks a shitload better than the stock cast job. I wouldnt stress too much over the placement of the O2 sensor. I have tried numerous types of stock ECU's and none of em gave a shit whether it was plugged in or not.
  20. I'd say go for it. As long as the loom isnt too hacked up it can be made to work quite easily. Injectors are there and the extractors look like TRD i guess. doesent really matter anyway. Yeah make sure you get the gearbox mount as well.
  21. Can I be the first to f@$kACA18! :hug: Unless your doing a full rebuild go the 4A. I've killed two and one wasnt even mine. Every person I know with a CA has either spun a bearing or blown a head gasket. I strongly advise a full rebuild if you go a CA otherwise you'll be pulling it out very soon. I used to like them but now I hate looking at the pecies of shit. no love for the CA.
  22. Oh shit I forgot do you need a CAMS license? Mine expired and I keep forgetting to renew it.
