      09/10 was so busy around tax time I kind of forgot. Works out well though, the 2 returns should see me not go out of pocket when I get the Camry up to scratch. It could have been ECU money but meh.

      Hopefully a worthy return!

  2. The fact that the hows your father is different from the other 4 thingys already on your car suggests you didn't pay extra for a full sized dealy. If you did pay for the whole.hog spare and you inded don't have the spare; then I would say someone has been half-inching you and I would get my rage on and start busting skulls until the situation is rectified.
  3. Long list to follow: - 2002 Camry Sportivo V6
  4. Has all the gear ready for a custom CAI for the Rexus.

  5. It's been a while but it's been a pathetic while since I've updated: - Went to the drags and absolutely cooked the clutch on my second launch so I was unable to do a good time. Best time was 15.098s @ 94.68mph. Shifting was spot on (wearing gloves) but after the clutch I wasn't able to run her hard. - Had the clutch replaced with a HD clutch and had my right CV boots replaced. - Left outer CV boot split and will eventually need replacing (non urgent) - Had a fire in the engine bay after the clutch install and got lucky nothing but some wiring and the battery were damaged. Car is starting to show her age and having a few issues: - Knock sensor 2 is failing and requires replacement - O2 Sensor, 1, bank 1 is also failing and needs replacement - Timing belt is 7000km overdue for a change - Lower radiator hose needs replacing - Washers on the banjo bolt on the brake calipers need replacing as they are seeping (I was supplied with the fibrous ones) Will end up having the timing belt, knock sensors, both upstream O2 sensors, water pump, various seals, gaskets, pulleys + tensioners replaced and may throw in the larger injectors because the supercharger will be coming off (save me having to do it when I choose to go to 6psi). I'll source some aluminium washers for the calipers so they will deform enough but still form a tight seal for the bolt. Lucky for RockAuto.com as parts cost a pittance of what they cost here.
  6. While I dont support non_legal mods, at least you're mature enough to understand there are consequences to your actions instead of.having a right royal whinge about the police.
  7. I mean, why leave them on? They'll soon enough ***** on you again if you do?
  8. I have other obligations thank God. I can't afford to go karting!
  9. If you leave your defectable things on don't you run the risk of getting defected again?
  10. Removed the parcel shelf and re-sat the rear speakers again. Lined them with a light foam and screwed them in using a split washer and a wider self-tapping screw + insulated the top so there is no direct contact between the grille and the tweeter. Time to test if it worked...!
  11. I dress like a ragpicker so it's usually Best or Less branded stuff.

  13. Let me guess... you heard him first... Yep, he must've known I was there.
  14. Just saw Stewart pass me by while I'm gettin my cleab on at Hoppys.
  15. A great man once observed that 90% of success comes from showing up on time... sorry I'm 4 hours late.

  16. I will be there. After 9pm though due to the requirements of The State.
  17. A wheel alignment will do nothing. Your caster is out and you need single or double offset control arm bush kit to get it to drive true. SuperPro, Whiteline Plus and Nolathane all make an offset bush kit. They cost about $220AU a kit plus installation which will be around $200-300. Don't go to Toyota, go a suspension shop to have the work done.
  18. A set of splits will be very easy to wire up, as I said again the Jaycar ones are great vale
  19. Oh, it was more of a pre-emptive strike on any potential quality argument!
  20. The Bren, usually called the Bren Gun; was a series of light machine guns adopted by Britain in the 1930s and used in various roles until 1991. It is best known for its role as the British and Commonwealth forces' primary infantry light machine gun (LMG) in World War II
