  1. I remember my first P plater car... 2001 Celica, not exactly a huge powerhouse but it still cost me a HUGE amount in insurance as it was a 'sports car'. Expect a large amount for insurance if your put on as the main driver. Wouldn't be surpised if it was towards the 2 grand mark. First job out of uni better be friggin good as well, as if I was paying any more in repayments for my Golf GTI or if I made a little bit less (I'm on plenty) it wouldn't be affordable. Oh and the waiting lists are fairly long :)
  2. From toymods: Anyone interested should contact Gene (details above), also it would be nice for you to post on the Facebook page: http://www.facebook....02665423109945/
  3. Had a good chrissie so far, as for exhaust... heres why it still hasn't got one: http://goapr.com.au/products/apr_exhaust_mk6_20tsi.html Scroll down to the bottom and look at the turboback price. Its the one im definitely getting just need the coin.
  4. Looking sexc as usual, we need to do a 'team red' photoshoot or something!
  5. Fairly typical nowadays isnt it. Shame really.
  6. Ill pop on down, Supra is in the shop tho.
  7. You have a 4A-C, rip it out and put a 4AGE in, profit.
  8. Your grounds most likely aren't good enough, make sure that its metal on metal - you will need to grind away the paint or it wont ground properly. Ideally you drill a hole through the body and put a brand new big ***** nut and bolt through to ground. It could also be inadequate shielding on your cables or those crappy sony amps.
  9. Different mufflers will have different sounds, power difference between the two will be negligible. As the mufflers burn in they will actually change their sound just a little bit and the smell is not unusual during the first month or so of use.
  10. I trust you'll be coming to the Dyno day on the 3rd to show off all the extra wasps that pipe will breed? Do eeeeet! Shiny red.
  11. Need moar low haha! Doesn't seem to matter how low you make a car everyone wants it lower... "But its dragging its chassis rails along the ground!"..."If its not dragging its oil pan its not low enough!". Looks much better lower, so when you getting a dump back exhaust? Turbo cars make sooo much more power and response when you let them breath.
  12. If the engine is cactus and needs to be rebuilt it'd be cheaper for you to get another Celica. Or if you can do it yourself just a new engine and pop that in.
  13. Just a bit more on my experience with them after my track day on Sunday. Rear end had great grip, no problem around corners or off the line, will be getting some on the front before next track day for sure. Recommend these to anyone.
  14. Am now the owner of a pair of 225/50/16 RE002's on the rear of my Supra. $189 ea. fitted from my local Bridgestone dealer. As they are just on the rear I cant comment on things like steering feel or understeer, but grip accelerating into corners has improved dramatically over what I had before (Potenza GIII's... old as hell!). I never had traction problems in a straight line so thats unchanged. Comfort is slightly improved, but again to be expected over the old tech GIII's Only comment so far is that they are bloody soft, I dont expect them to last terribly long, but then again, thats what you get with these sorts of tyres. Also noticed they where made in Indonesia, no more Made in Australia or Japan :(, prolly accounts for the price drop. While its been wet recently, have only driven in the dry so far.
  15. How big did you get your exhaust? What sort of mufflers etc?
