yes its true... supercamry is no more. i ran into the back of a stupid old woman in a commodore and whilst the damage to my car was minor i have decided to end the life of supercamry, fix it and sell it. the accident was the last thing in a long line of problems over the last few months and its not worth keeping the old girl anymore. i took the stripes off yesterday and will have the front back together in about 2 weeks. I'm going to return it to as close to stock as possible and then trade it in on something else... i will be selling the wheels seperate so if anyone wants them pm me. i have no idea what to get yet but it will be RWD or 4WD and most likely toyota. so from now on no one will see that f*cking camry with the racing stripes anymore.

 

rest in bits and pieces SuperCamry... sob sob sob

sob Nooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo!!!!!!!! sob

shit had me worried there...I thought YOU had died...thank god it was only the car.

 

Hope you get something niiceeee

Did someone say Twin Turbo Soarer / Supra ? :D

RIP the best camry in brisbane!

 

long live the stripes... shall they return? :D

RIP in super camry :D

Its the end of an era - the supercamry was what bough me to rollaclub - saw it - saw the stickers - raced home and jumped online.

 

I am in mourning ..... (oh shit its after 12pm - can I be mourning in afternoon ??)

NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO

thanks guys. i might head over to nicks house so he can take some photos before i let her go. I'm pretty sad too... I'm probably going to get an old celica or corolla. don't know if it will cop racing stripes though. :D how hard is it to change the stud patern on a sprinter?

Can i ask what typa problems were u having with the car over the last month(s)?

 

Cheers,

 

Teddy

how hard is it to change the stud patern on a sprinter?

from 4x110 to 4x114.3 is EASY...takes a few hours if you have the parts. Shit if your gonna get an old school corolla I'll come over and do it for you!

teddy. the list is... in no specific order.

 

1. the suspention is pretty shot. i put king lows on it about 2 years ago and never changed the shocks. still sits nice and flat, but bottems out over bumpy roads.

 

2. the catalitic converter has been rattling like a bastard for almost a year and i really hate how it sounds and couldnt be f'ed fixing it.

 

3. there is a fair bit of rust in the boot and a little on the floor.

 

4. i hit an open manhole on the gold coast highway doing 110 and almost ripped the right side rear wheel off... fortunatelly i didnt have the mags at that point because as you can imagine the stock rim was destroyed.

 

5. at the same time as the wheel being ripped off, the manhole put a huge dent on the underside of the car and it leakes water through it.

 

6. the drivers door seal is not sealing anymore.

 

7. the central locking is on the fritz.

 

8. the engine is old to the sum of 270000.

 

9. the drivers window doesnt wind up properly

 

10. its got a dent on the bottem near where the spare sits. i don't have a clue how it got there.

 

11. i flooded the engine with water a little bit ago, and its never been "quite right" after that.

 

12. um, what else... i crashed it the other day.

 

alside from that, the engine is still going and not showing any signs of giving up yet. i fixed the rear wheel and indipendant (fortunatelly) suspension bits. cause otherwise i was drivin with about 20 degrees of toe out. i fixed the leak. and the alarm still works fine.

 

i simply don't wnat to spend so much time and money on a car that frankly isnt worth it anymore. i got what i wanted out of it and i did kind of flog the shit out of it at the same time. ill still remember the good times. and its still the lowest gen 2 with 5 people in it youll ever see. :D

 

 

btw. is a cresida 5x100 stud pattern?

Hey

 

Any more updates on the old girl?

 

Any more ideas on what u will get next?

 

Intrested to know !!
