Hey, Ok, my car has been a bit jumpy etc and i thoguht it may be the fuel filter and/or the fuel lines. so i changed both thisafternoon and it wont start. the arrow is in the right direction and I'm sure futl is coming through. does anyone have any idea how i can fix this??

the pedal goes all the way to the floor! it was soo scary the first time it happened!

mk so, my brake light switch was not working, the bolts holding it in place had loosened so it slipped back and was not turning the brake light. so i fixed that and i noticed the brakes were really tight when i pressed it. as in the brake peddal didnt go down as far as it once did. so i topped up my brake fluid and drove it for a coupple of days. a few days after fixing the switch i noticed that the brakes became very squishy and were not as sensitive as the once were. since then they have gotten very bad. so bad that the brakes hardly work ithout pumping the pedal once before the car begins to brake. anyone have any suggestions?? could it be a bubble in the lines? i really don't know.

looks f@$king dope dude!! get a close up pic of the guards

whats going on? when i have been for a drive i turn the ignition off and sometimes the car will round allmost as if it is starting again or turning over again. it kind of rumples and jumps for a few seconds. it doesent do this every time but just on occasions. anyone know wahts going on? cheers

ya its a 1.8 liter. thanks guys! ill see if he still wants to give it to me :P

what if its late 80's.... i think its around 87

my mate just wrote off his 1980's lightace..... a little highace lol and i want to know if they have a 7k in them. anyone knwo? thanks

hmmm, that FAQ makes them sound like absolute crap! lol have you ever used one? do they give much power. and yea i am trying to keep it as original as possible. thanks, punchy

Would putting a bigport 3k head on my stock 3k be worth it? and would it give me much more power? also, how much would it cost to get one reconditioned? thanks, punchy.

i can't imagine that hard. well i have a stock 3k ke25 and i can do little skids, nothing massive tho

^^ yea go with older style. look much better :y:

yea, it should be on one of the metal plates around ur enginebay. it will say 'paint' or 'colour' sommething like that followed by a series of numbers or letters

ya, like its missing a beat. thanks for that!

hmmk. a strange noise was coming from my car today. when it idles it makes this occasional knock or something where it bumps slightly or the engine just stops or missfires very slightly. i don't think its anything major but just very annoying!! it doesn't do it when I'm driving, just when idling, eg at lights. anyone know whats wrong with it?

hey mate, i see u have a stereo, where have u got speakers installed? cheers, punchy

ohk. and also, is there any way of putting speakers on the parcel shelf without hacking that up? cos i wouldn't mind having back speakers or is that asking to much?

hmm u mean like spacers?? and sorry for my ignorance, but what are the kick panels? are they the inside of ur door? or near the pedals? cheers

haha cheers for ur comments guys. i have struck a problem. i currently have a CD player installed in my glovebox (trying to keep it as original as possible) but do not know where to put some speakers. i really don't want to have to cut into my doors or my parcel shelf as this kills the oldschool charm it has. anyone have any ideas or past experience on where i can put some speakers? also, the wire i have installed runs to the back of the car, but it souldnt be a problem to run some more wire to the front.

Some pics of the interior and aircon

also. what parts will i actually need to convert it to manual? just a peddle and gearbox?

damn, ok thanks guys

haha yea spotted Mitch entering cross rd. and ya cheers for the wave SLO-030!

I'm wanting to convert my 2speed toyoglide 3k engine to a manual. would i be able to use a 4k peddle box and also a 4k 5 speed box? thanks. punchy

thanks for ur help guys! problem solvered!
