Tyre time as well. Was going to stretch my stockies but need to be lower and crazy low offset to pull off that look meaning impractical,If I can't do it right I won't do it at all :D

Got myself some Bridgestone Potenza RE070 rubber to be fitted up this week and just a little exhaust work... Hopefully done this week..

Fitted up the new tyres but way too chunky for this wheel, more suited to a track wheel so I caved and fitted my stockies on them, yes with stretch.Pretty happy with the result but will be painting the centres and possibly coilovers to complete the look..

Fitted G88 overpipe and Blitz front pipe(borrowed pic) and makes the TOM'S muffler sound amazing now.Was raspy to begin with but now WOW, cold start up Maserati sound, I kid you not but then revs drop and sounds tame,perfect... No difference down low but mid to top range is noticeably more responsive.

Bridgestones looked better, because racecar! :)

Agreed, UHP/semi-slicks always look better with a square/chunky sidewall, proper race-cars don't run stretch because who doesn't need more rubber on the ground? :P

Yes I agree with both of you but me being me it just didn't suit the style of wheel. I'm looking for STI BRZ wheels to fit semi slicks on, was going to fit them on my stockies but I think 225 on a 7" rim was a bit of overkill....Sold them for what I paid,phew

^^Thanks Pete

Most of you know the 86/BRZ have a sound creator which allows intake sound to enter the cabin, sounds OK but I'm a bit over it, plus now I can hear my gorgeous exhaust clearer..

So plugged it with a pair of Revolution delete caps, I could've just removed the whole unit and plugged the hole but this is engine bay bling :D

Almost ready to pull the trigger on these as well

The stock 86 rims are fine for street use , it's just the stock prius tyres that are for battery powered ecobox drifting.

The only good thing about the stock tyres is that they are such a hard compound , they seem to be lasting forever.

Finally took the car on long drive,16 months old and done 10000km.. Quick drive to Mel for dinner last Fri.. Flawless on the Highway which made me realize how much I hate driving this car in the City..

I knew there was a reason i didn't buy it as a daily :D

That's why I love the Corolla, quiet,comfy,effortless to drive and a lot more refined...

Anyway just ordered and paid for my coilovers and should be here mid Sep.

Pitstop on the way to Vic

      Disconnecting winch, lightbar and UHF

      Generally, yes. In the 60s, and earlier, there were cars with positive grounds, so I'm always a bit hesitant to say the negative wire. It is always the one that bolts to the body. Herb

      2011 Land Cruiser 1VD-FTV Engine Won't Start After Overhaul

      Hi everyone, I have a 2011 Land Cruiser VDJ200 with a 1VD-FTV engine. I recently had the engine fully overhauled due to a blown head gasket. However, after the overhaul, the engine is not starting. It only cranks but doesn't fire. I've checked the following DTC codes: Internal memory EEPROM error Low rail pressure The actual rail pressure data shows: 240 bar during cranking 61 bar when ignition is off Based on these findings, I suspect the following potential causes: =Defective Diesel High-Pressure Pump =Leaking Piezoelectric Injectors =Diesel Fuel Bypassing to the DPF Circuit =Faulty Injector Drivers I'm hoping for some expert advice to help diagnose and resolve this problem I'm seeking expert advice on how to troubleshoot and resolve this issue. Any suggestions or guidance would be greatly appreciated.

      Disconnecting winch, lightbar and UHF

      Disconnecting batteries, ALWAYS disconnect the ground wire first. Doing this will also disconnect power, in general. Herb

      Disconnecting winch, lightbar and UHF

      Hey guys, I’m wanting to disconnect my current winch, lightbar and UHF as I have new plans. I’ve installed a winch previously on another car so I get it’s a case of following the cables and disconnecting from the battery, etc but but safety wise, should I start by disconnecting the battery so the cables aren’t live orrrr? And if so how do it go this haha?

      Snapping wheel and axle studs

      Put a set of standard wheels on it and your problem will disappear. It is critical that the hole in the wheel centre is a snug fit on the axle boss (without wheel nuts fitted). If your wheels are sloppy on the axle boss this allows excess force on your wheel studs and they will break, as yours are doing. If you are unsure of what to do, go to a reputable tyre shop and get assistance.

      2zz idle / roughness when accelerating past 3k

      Hey everyone was hoping someone might be able to point me in the right direction with this issue I've been facing for a while now. My Celica's idle will drop down to almost 200rpm when stationery after hitting operating temperature. Pretty much feels like it's about to stall out but never actually does. When taking off from a set of lights it almost feels like it hesitates or is down on power and then all of a sudden it lurches forward and gets a boost in power again. Then again around 1,500-3,000rpm it feels down on power and in what I can only describe in the engine feeling scratchy. Past 3,000 rpm it gets a little boost in power again but still definitely feels down on power compared to what it used to be and still has that roughness. Note lift is also not working at the moment but I have changed the lift bolts, planning on cleaning the VVT and VVTL-i OCV's New engine mounts have been installed I changed the MAF sensor about 4 years ago albeit not OEM. After doing some research my main ideas now would be a New MAF this time OEM, TPS, IACV or Coil Packs (Changed plugs 50,000km ago) Any other suggestions would be greatly appreciated!!! :)
