Search Trading Post/E-bay/Firesport for a white pre-facelift body-kit.

Most likely someone took it for themselves though.

Sorry to hear, was it parked in the street? :o

For farks sake... that is shocking Luke... I don't like the chances of finding it again, but good luck. There have been reports of many 'insurace jobs' going on with corollas given their popularity and road numbers. These are often targetted thefts for certain particular items, such as airbags and bodykits that are quite costly for the repairer but can make them a mint if obtained cheaply... sorry your car was targetted though mate :(

what state? what suburb?

sorry to hear about that mate, hopefully insurance will cover u for it?

He's from Penrith area...

Sh!t Luke, that's bad. I will have Mazda people in Sydney look out for the bodykit and i believe in Karma, maybe he will end up at Westmead A&E for you so you can give him some good old "holistic care" :P

the sportivo bodykit is all external so you can take it off without getting inside making it easier to steal. my sideskirts however are mounted on the inside door sill and can be drilled in

I was looking at my sportivo the other day and was thinking how easy it was for someone to steal the body kit....never knew it would actually take place. Now I'm worried :(

Bad karma to the people that stole yours :angry:

Hopefully you'll get it back :unsure:

Man...sorry hear 'bout that - it's like being seriously violated. You work hard, save, get the bits and / or the car, then some little prick with no life and a rock as a Mum, comes along and wrecks your pride and joy :( :angry:

As previous posts say - carma. He'll get his :ph34r:

Does any know if the same can be done to Levin - cause now I'm worried too......

Panel Beaters...

Buy stolen parts cheap - Charge customer or Insurance co for full genuine rrp and then make more profit.

Getting more common.

My friends Statesman was stolen, next afternoon found stripped of interior (leather seats, dash etc). Drivers seat was replaced with a milk crate and an old kingswood steering wheel put in place just to be able to move the car to dump it where it was found.

Tell me that sort of stuff isn't "to order" or pre-planned.

Sorry to hear about this. :(

I guess if you look on the bright side, this could be an opportunity to get an after market spoiler kit fitted instead of a factory one.

i always garage my car and it was in a secure car park at my work at the hospital when it happened.

prob is nil cctv in the car park.

the people knew what they were doing as the tape is all still intact and the bolts were put back.

any way that for the comments just be careful all.

      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!!! :)
