  4. sharmz...where you been hiding mate ...you been OS or something??? whats new? pleanty has changed here and alot of new faces :D
  5. If you talk to the service manager you can usually work things out ;) They say as a rule that they wont, but they will do tings on a case by case basis for you ;) I have a few big rattles which they are going to look at for me next time, and I am 20K stoopid - it also helps if you dont rock the car from the back seat :P
  6. yes that fensport corolla is mad. I tired to go and see it in person whilst i was in england recently but no luck :( it surely is one mad machine they also have a mad 10 sec gt4 celica

  8. - remove red casing over +ve terminal on bettery - get a long shafted screw driver (flat head preferred) - place metal shaft over both terminals of bettery - you should be able to tell that there are alot of volts there when the sparks strt to fly!!!!!!!!! HEHEHEHEHEHEHEEEE Sorry I'm not being much help today am I?

  10. I need some advice on what could be a life changing decision. Thanks in advance guys. I've suspected for some time now that my girlfriend has been having an affair. The usual signs. Phone rings, I answer, someone hangs up. She started going out 'with the girls' a lot recently although when I ask which girls it is always "Just some friends from work, you don't know them". I always look out for her taxi coming home but she always walks down the drive although I can hear a car setting off. As if she has got out of the car round the corner. Why? Is it not a taxi? I once picked her mobile up just to see what time it was and she went beserk and screamed that I should never touch her phone again and why was I checking up on her. Anyway, I have never approached the subject with my g/f. I think deep down I just didn't want to know the truth but last night she went out again and I decided to check on her. I decided I was going to hide behind my car which would give me a view of the whole street so I could see which car she gets out of. It was whilst crouched behind my car that I noticed rust around my rear wheel arch. Should I take it into a body repair shop or should I buy some stuff from the local auto shop and try to repair it myself?
  11. oh soz my bad :( forgot he was busy Does the diameter of resinator etc. really make a difference to you buying it? Actually yes it does cause it may be too loud for some people for sensitive ears.... my bad again :( DAMN IT i might stop posting for today...hehehe If you are happy with the resuts from Benden and myself (next week hopefully) and you like what you see then go for it ;)
  12. Don't mean to stir the pot here brenden, but with mandrel bending you do get a slight decrease in the thickness of the outer wall of the bend. It is only marginal in comparison to press bend which can move the inner bend wall some 2-3 mm Tiger - Call Trevor on thos sorts of things mate ;) 07 32002333 imek - has already been posted by silva previously
  13. Some of you may or may not have seen. But I have posted a Sticky at the top opf the Corolla forum for people to post their complaints to Toyota. Please read this topic and place any relevant communications bewteen yourself and TMCA (email or written ONLY....no phone calls) Issues Sticky

  15. Sportivo Owners Due to the arising or more people encountering sticky gear changes, crunching or grinding. I ask that anyone who has made an official complaint in writing to anyone within the TMCA corporation. To place the details of the contact person and the message body here in this sticky. THIS IS NOT A PLACE TO COMMENT ON This is only for the details of the complaint. This sticky will be a reference point for people. When either compiling their own letter or when in talks with TMCA on these issues.
  16. JDM - Sounds like we need some goodies for you...hehehehe Do you have any pics for us of the new beast? both intreior and ext?
  17. JDMRunx - Are you having this 'no lift' issue because the engine is cold? remember unless the engine is at a resonable running temperature it wont engauge the high cam!
  18. YIPPIE!!!!! hey Silva - You forgot that I will have mine hopefully next week also :P I talked to Trev yesterday and sussed things out! All looks good hopefully for next week to have it fitted! Of course trev will be doing the dyno pre/post. But I will also be taking it back to my shop to put it on the dyno that has done all my previous efforts to get a good comparison for people ;) All I can say is....good things come to those who wait. Gret things come from CES Racing :D
  19. SS - welcome :) great to see a few more ladies in here ;) - OOPS!!!!!!!!!! soa mate! I have a few mates in the VIP club with soarers. they all near 200RWkW i think!!!???? they are a lovely car.
  20. Wow.....how cool is that!!! Welcome mate :) so the Google crawling is helping....yes/no?
  21. 28,500 Talk him down or get some more freebies mate ;) tell him he can do better!!!!!! do it....do it
  22. - get them to drive it first - tell them to drive it properly....none of this ill change at 4K rpm and take 2seconds to do it - if they cant replicate the error tell them to try harder. - dont let them tell you its 'your driving technique' - let them know how many other people are having the same issue. give names if need be - let them know we have a signifigant amount of owners who have replaced their clutch assembly with great results - synchros 'dont' need to be under 6K rpm to change efectivley - give them the car for the whole day and get them to drive it alot!!!!!! (my car came back yesterday with almost 100 extra K's on it)
  23. Guys, I had one of the Regional TMCA tech out yesterday to drive my car and to look at my ongoing issues with gear changing or rather lack there of. We went for a drive and managed to get things happening (borking etc.) I left the car with them for the rest of the day and returned to pick it up late yesterday afternoon. Unfortunatley the manager was not there to give me a personal update but he will be calling me today :D oh and BTW - she is changing nice and smooth now.....dunno what they did...but she is alot better ;)
