I've seen some really nicely done up ones lately...

Not quite as old as your one Charms :P

Not too sure what year they are but I'm assuming they're early 90 models. :)

lols. all i've done is just bought one of those longer mirrors to clip onto my mirror and thats it.

i'm too paranoid that if i do anything good to it, it might get stolen.

because i live in a crap area and my car's been stolen like 3 times before though i wasn't driving it at the time. but yehs, when my sister drove it, it got stolen just being parked at the shopping centre.

i've been trying to look for a cheap cd player for it though... but i'm still paranoid.

rims would be nice too =D

have you done anything to yours?

mine's an auto. i cant drive manual. i'm uncoordinated =D

car is a royal blue colour.

the colour doesn't bother me too much.

i'm sure it'd look better if i waxed it though. lols. be shinier

yehs.. cars tend to be shocking in all areas once they get old. lols.

my radiator decided to start leaking like 2 days ago. so i cant drive my car until i get it fixed.

and i just fixed a leak for the gear box oil!

lols. nars. we dont catch anyone. police usually find it dumped somewhere. once it was really yuck. got it back and someone had thrown up in it and smashed one of the windows. smelt foul for a bit but then we washed it and cleaned it up so good as new... well.. not new...LOL. if only

Haha cant be hard to pick up for some i know im not the best either :P

u should wax it! i cant on mine lol paint is coming off :lol: Bec (Sportivo05) said i should super glue the paint on hahahaha sorry bec thats one of the funniest things ive heard in a long time!!!!

Its a pain when things start to play up and its not always cheap to fix!

im gonna need to get a new radiator to as when i drive for more than 30mins it starts to heat up pretty quick :ph34r: its cause i used to put water in there instead of the coolant which i been using for over 6 months lol now the car is paying for it <_<

Ewwww i dont think i would have gotten back in the car lol

does ur auto have over drive?

i dont think it does.

lols. yehs. my paint is dying off as well. LOL... yehs.. my car heats up in like 10-15 minutes. and thats full on heated, like right up to the H. LOL. i need to get some coolant for my car as well. there's just water in there atm. i've got sealer in my radiator but it didnt work too well. maybe cos i ran out of coolant. LOL

but i'm sure i wont let it run for 6 months without coolant. the price we pay for repairs... might as well save up and get a new car. i want a yaris. if i get it i'll think abt doing it up.

lols. htey threw up in the back seat.. and i never sit in the back seat so its ok. LOL

The first 5 speeds in OZ were the celica's with an overdrive 5th (0.8:1 step up). Unless you were lucky enough to own the sole GSS Corona Mark 2 (Maryborough Toyota 1971) or the rare RT56G GT5.

Charms where did you find that pic?

That was taken just before it was sold. 'Ivan' I think his name was, owned the wagon. It had a 2.4L 160rwkw motor in it. The thing flew. Skylines? He killed them in a straight line unless they were really worked lol.

      1999 Camry Driver's door locking hatch issue

      It's possible that it could be something fouling or dirt build up, dry, or a broken mechanism, so have a look and give the mechanism some lubrication, most likely though, it'll be the actuator. I found one for a good price on Ebay, $25 delivered: Front Door Lock Actuator Right Side For Toyota Camry 1997-2001 | eBay

      Query about the correct rotors for 2006 ACV40 Camry.

      Hi, I'm looking at a set of front rotors for an ACV40 2006, 2.4L Camry. I got a good price on some RDA's at Sparesbox. However both RDA8112 and RDA7686 show as for my car and I'm wondering what the difference is and if there were changes to the rotors during the model production. So does anyone know which rotor is the correct one? Many thanks in advance.

      It's a simple solution though? Already laying down 60k for a RAV4, so what's another 1k on a phone to make everything work seamlessly? 👍

      Your solution is akin to suggesting that switching to a different car manufacturer would resolve the issue. However, not everyone shares the same enthusiasm for using an iPhone as you do.

      Turboed Corolla Overbuilt?

      that engine will be fine, the rods are the main thing to be concerned about. The 2860 is a decent turbo for the 1zz but in this day and age I'd go for a G25-550. The injectors might be on the small side, we run DW1000's. You need a full length injector, the shorter injectors with adaptors like ID1050x dont fit the 1zz head. You don't need an aftermarket intake manifold, if you do go down that path, avoid the CNC innovations unit, it's garbage. Do the boost control with a MAC valve and control it with the aftermarket ECU of your choice, I use Link stuff on most of my builds with the G4x Storm as the minimum. I also wire a fuel pressure sensor and oil pressure sensor to the ECU in my installs. Use a decent intercooler, the better cores (ARE, PWR, Garrett, Vibrant, Plazmaman, Hypertune) work a lot better than the chinese stuff like Aeroflow. a 450x250-300 fits fairly well with custom end tanks to route the cooler pipes through next to the radiator Don't forget about the clutch and gearbox. These days I like the Uniclutch twinplate, Above 300whp you'll want to think about upgrading the 3rd and 4th gears in the box also with the SSC (Hollinger) gear set and install an LSD of your choice. If you're going to give it a hard time, you'll also want an oil cooler. I like the HKS thermostat type sandwich plates and setrab or mocal oil coolers with -10 speedflow fittings/lines (Chinese AN fittings neck down to a lot smaller internal diameter in their bends, not great for flow) You'll also want to think about brakes, Celica or Sportivo front calipers will bolt on with sportivo discs as a starting point. To have somewhere like Tunehouse do the work you'll want to budget somewhere between 20-40K

      Camry Touring 2010 Fuel consumption 15.2L/100km. Normal?

      I did the mathematics myself regarding costs vs benefits for fuel injector cleaner. I have changed from 91ULP to 95PULP and 98PULP. Price difference can be about 13 -20 cents. Compared to 91ULP, Premium quality fuel should have a better quality additive package designed to have superior engine cleaning capabilities so the engine can perform at their best.

      "Fuel injector cleaner is a waste of money" Only if you by the cheap crap if you use LiquMolly a German Product it does work and you won't waste your Money.
