ohhh must have been pistachio then!

You sure it wasn't cashew?

Who cares, most of the people on that E7 page are douchebags. Forget about those guys, just keep building your car because it's awesome and we all want to read about it.

Gosh this thing looks good.

^I'm in.

^ What? I just want to watch Harry Potter.

ʞ©$ɟ I wish the Harry Potter series didn't end.

This is madness.

You want to replace the bushing on the end of the shifter and the two "seats", they are the same between AE71/KE70/AE86/T18 etc (according to the part numbers on toyodiy.com) but order them through AJPS because he makes them out of delrin which is way harder and lasts longer than the normal rubber ones.

How come you didn't weld the coilover sleeve to the strut?

Let's go to the track!

JAX at Yeerongpilly, that is for 195/50r15.

I'm going with Federal 595 RSR, $135ea fitted. I'll use them until they wear out then I'll try RE002s

^I'm in Indooroopilly which is North of you, so we could meet at a service station on the way or something? Who else is coming?

Sorted out some new tyres, going to go with Federal 595 RSR in 195/50r15. Also booked the car in to get the exhaust fixed and tucked up higher. Then the coilovers go in ;)

Diggin' it.

^let's do it.

lol

That video was great!

I'm beginning to like it, my bank account hates it. It has so many shitty little problems that need to be sorted out, things that are going to cost money. I think once I get the exhaust fixed up and some new bushes I will like it a whole lot more, providing it doesn't break down...

^ The part number on the box was the same as the one I ordered, but the actual unit inside had a different part number. I guess OEX must have changed suppliers or something. I'm stoked about it. I managed to put the new starter motor in this afternoon, it sounds so powerful. The engine always started easy (except when it was hot) but now it actually sounds good while it's winding over. My exhaust rattle is gone too, the headers used to rattle against the heat shield on the old starter motor, but because the new one is smaller and doesn't have a heat shield it easily clears the headers. So it no longer sounds like shit over 4000rpm haha, however there is a pretty annoying exhaust leak. That will be the next thing I fix!

Got my starter motor today, I ordered a 0.8KW starter motor but a 1.2KW (according to the sticker and the quality control slip that came with it) starter motor turned up. It's also much lighter than a standard starter motor, the new one is 2.95kg compaired to the 4.5kg of the standard unit. Also got a new battery as the old one died yesterday. I'm not going to have any more starting problems!

^haha yeah just realised that after I posted that question.

Where in Brisbane does Federal tyres? I've only been looking at websites so far but I haven't found anyone who lists them. At the moment I'm looking at either Federal 595 RSRs or Bridgestone RE002s. Edit: never mind, just realised I can look up all the Federal dealers on the Federal website :hammer:

Tridon make a thermostat gasket for a 4K and the part number is TTG42. You should be able to get them from Repco or Supercheap Auto.
