  1. Is the 86 GTS the new supra? Does it have the same or similar engine mod capabilities? I been debating seriously trading my old 06 sportivo for something newer and nicer like this little baby just wanna know a little bit more about it :)
  2. i don't know :( I know it sounds dumb :( Maybe my fault I only asked em to fit the pads and do rotors :( Sorry to waste your time I'm still learning :(
  3. When they do brake pads front and rear is it just my imagination or should the brake pedal feel tight and new not sloppy and loose?
  4. I am not sure if I need them machined just heard from a few different places I have called that its probably wise. I have had the car 3.5 years now and haven't done them in this time, how far apart do you do it? Or do you mainly do it if the rotr is warped or something?
  5. Whats a decent price to have front and rear brake pads fitted and rotors machined? (i bought the pads myself but am regretting it now)
  6. Every how often do you do this? Not to be funny but I'm at 131,000k now and i have my car serviced regularly by toyota at tweed heads. When or would they have done this already?
  7. Fair enough so just replace the fuel filter anything you can reccomend in branding? Fuel filters do they all do the same thing there abouts or do some have little differences ie more filters for cleaner fuel or less for more flow or something? Don't laugh please :)
  8. Not entirely, I know very little about cars but I do believe it's belts, as when I had it serviced and I asked the bloke to check the belts for noise he suggested replacements. I know the air-con belt is squeaking as that squeak dissapears when I turn the A/C off. The other squeak is mainly at cold start and occasional driving noise I think maybe timing belt or something? How do you determine if the noise is bearings or belts?
  9. As I'm sure you know by now I know squat about cars which is embarassing but I'm keen to learn. How much of the above can I do myself?
  10. Howdy wondering what belts are in an 06 Camry as my air-con is squeaking and there is another squeak aswell but I don't know what it is :( Please I know it sounds bad but can I please just have some help, I know nothing about cars but am keen to learn :) How much to replace all the belts or is that just overkill?
  11. Wondering what nifty little devices you guys have used for increasing fuel efficiency?
  12. Well that hurts but often the truth does , I may just flag the whole rim idea all together and stay stock Sorry to waste your time :(
  13. My bad on ebay it says its a Gline 552 but on the G line site http://glinewheels.com/ its actually a G503 That I'm after, Any thoughts? What do you guys think of this rim
  14. With the tires i have found a place that does that same G line 552 Rim 18 inch but they sell it with a tire size 225-40-18 Offset 38 or 40 Whats the best? Differences? Im a complete amateur when it comes to this sort of thing, what does changing the offset mean? and the tire sidewall I think it is? 45 compared to 40 means 40 is a lower profile tire correct or not? I know nothing help me please
