  1. Ive lost things in between the block and the starter motor (not knowing that I had lost them) only to find them months down the track. Last time I went to the wreckers I (no shit) took a rachet and a 12 and 14mm sockets and some vice grips....vice grips are god.
  2. http://www.onthenet.com.au/~pauls/Images/P1360101.JPG my vote
  3. onya Teddy...done it again :thumbsup:
  4. Id be prepared to do a group shoot with anyone that feels left out :thumbsup:
  5. NiteP]-[yRe: I'll talk to skidman and see if I can get him to dig up the untexted fullsize version. I hope he still has it.
  6. I'll trace out the route on the UBD maps and print it all out for peoples :thumbsup:
  7. ah shit this is tomorrow....and its almost 4am and I'm not in bed yet....count me out...bar some freak of nature.
  8. As far as I know the AE86-KE70 stuff is all interchangeable. One of the KE70 guys will be able to confirm this. With the spring rates...hey try them out, if theyre no good you can probably find someone willing to swap softer rates for those harder rate springs.
  9. Hrmm interest other than cars. I havent really had any other than cars for a while...but back when... I played first XI cricket (first 11) in highschool. I was a pace bowler and generally sucked at batting. I played inline hockey (like ice but on wheels) for 5 years. Tried out for state a few times. Never successful because we had such a strong state side. Then it started to get political so I told em to stick it where it fits and left. Next year Ive decided to get back into "studying". I did TAFE last year but it was so simple and boring I lost interest, found I had all this freedom and dropped out. This year I did nothing, just trying to find some direction. SO next year I'm starting my CPL (commercial pilots licence). The industrys very compedative and its quite hard to find jobs as a pilot (although when you get a job you tend to keep it). I don't really care, its what I want to do, Its what Ive wanted to do for ages, its just that now I can see that I can achieve my goal. Alebit it will take a while...with training costing ~$40,000. So I'll probably be at it for 3-4 years. No matter, so long as I get there eventually. As for what kinda flying I want to do? don't really care, so long as Ive got a set of wings strapped to me. Quite a while ago I was into aero modeling. A site my mate showed me last night, where these guys had build themselves a UAV from scratch promted me to start thinking about perhaps getting back into it (and toms RC boat). These guys wernt going to like 10,000ft. No...they were attaching this glider to weather baloons and sending it to upwards of 85,000ft where the sky is black and the horizon is curved. So it was pretty impressive.
  10. I'm sick of all this "terror" bullshit. I can't f@$king turn on the TV without hearing some bullshit from either that jackarse bush and his butt slut howard or any of the journos that are just as bad as them. ARRG SO f@$kING SICK OF IT!!! </rant>
  11. But wait!! Theres more!
  12. Id like to submit a photo on mumblezzz (unoffical) behalf
  13. yep all the exhaust manifolds are interchangeable. 2T-B is 9.4:1 compression ratio. If you can find a 2T head (8.5:1 CR) it would turbo quite nicely if thats the way you decide to head.
  14. haha how fitting...theyre in handicapped parking :thumbsup: j/ks
  15. september if at all possible :thumbsup:
  16. *looks at nitrous oxide bottle sitting in the corner* pit crew guy: "how the hell did you manage to melt the piston?" me: "buggers me...she just went real good for a moment...then nothing!" Crash says hes going to try and sort out a late start with work (he starts at 2:30am) so that he is able to attend. I'll keep buggin him :thumbsup:
  17. Doesnt the 4K-U have dished pistons?
  18. twas mumblezzzez
  19. Ive got a similar coolant problem in the celica. Under pressure you get coolant sprayed all over the engine bay even though the temperatures fine. Turns out the leaks coming from where the thermostat housing meets the head. One of the bolts had rotted out so I took that out, cleaned the hole out and put a new one in. So far so good.
  20. bummer... Thinking about perhaps coming to watch. I think Id better watch one before I have a go...
  21. I'm thinking...if I can afford it....I might come out for a try. I realised today the celica is really good at hand brake turns.
  22. U/S on my mechanics report means unsatisfactory
  23. yep...2nd
  24. U is japanese emissions... R = air injection So the Cali 4K-C should really be a 4K-RC
