July 13, 200818 yr Author comment_260532 updates......... been driving the rolla around for a few weeks now was running really rich and found out it was running at about 20L per 100km was great with these petty prices. So i got it tuned new plugs and points and she is running quite well. I also had a oil leak and found out it was due to poor engin breathing, then i found out that that was because my PCV valve gromet had shat its self. I called jarvis toyota and then they emailed JAPAN and then got told they don't make them anymore so i guess I'm gonna have to go to wreckers and have a fat look Here is a piccy of a PCV valve gromit just incase you have no clue what I'm talking about in piccy it is circled in red More pics coming soon Lukey Report

October 8, 200817 yr Author comment_279931 New updates...... last week i planed to put the manual conversion into the rolla. I was going to do it at a mates place who lived at Mclaren Vale but then car started to overheat. I didnt reallt want to drive that far with a really shitty radiator but the Auto had to come out!!! :y: Anyway got there safe and started to rip out the old auto and put the manual in It was a fair bitch of a job to do the peddal box was the hardest thing to do, pulling the old auto one out and putting the new manual one in. Now driving the rolla around is so much f@$king better Will post some more pics up tomorrow Lukey :cool: Report
