  1. I said i polished my knob all the time everyday and get a hard on when i do.
  2. Changed that worn out knob... dat shiny knob
  3. I finally haz automobile back... :) What's been done? Well after putting the new box with Quaife LSD inside. It drove so well especially around the corners. however acceleration suffered terribly... almost 3 seconds slower on the straight. :( Then bought the 4.529 final drive ratio from toyota and swapped it here. Now the acceleration is the way it was before. However the shift points in each gear is longer as they used the individual gear ratios from the 1zzfe box and put the 1zzfe 5th gear as the 6th and the 6th from the stock sportivo into the 5th. (confused yet? :P) anyways, due to this the shifting from 8400rpm will drop down outside the lift range (5000rpm in 2nd and 5400rpm in 3rd). I think this isn't really an issue for me as i have plans, so tempted but i will hold back for now as i have heaps of stuff to pay for in the next month or so. :( Also will be excellent using these ratios for winton to shave those times down! ;) Was forever changing gears before on track it was annoying the hell outta me.
  4. clean the IACV first see if that fixes it
  5. are the jdm slimline visors used or brand new?

  9. same as stock 8.7kgs on to other news... lets unleash those monkeys at their full potential shall we? now the waiting game... :)
  10. front lip on a front lip!? GENIUS!!!!
  11. ur engine just turned into a v12 -_- get it checked by an exhuast shop, most likely leak.
  12. hopefully not drew... hopefully just a clutch thing... but might as well change something while that is off...:) in other news while the cars sitting in the driveway... these came... fuk off those aluminium nuts and time for steel ;) and wrapped the enkeis with these lovelies... :D RE002s ;) promotional sale: only in may 2013, buy 3 bridgestone tyres and get 1 free! they were gonna charge me 209 per corner so it was going to be 627, but the guys lowered it to 204 per corner :) so 4 tyres fitted and balanced for 612! :D
  13. Got my steering wheel back :) and ****** off cuz there is bits of super glue on the steering wheel -_- its my fault but does anyone know how to take it off leather??? but otherwise, its damn nice feel and smell! and this happened. while driving normally in laverton depressed clutch in and something gave way, then clutch pedal went firmer. it still depresses and releases but i cannot go into gear. going to tow it to the transmission specailist. if the box has to go off, i will change something else in it
  14. thread pointless without picssssssssssssssssssssss!!!!!!!! haha congrats on purchase :)
  15. whhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyy? paint it orange :P
  16. after destroying 4 aluminum nuts in 24 hours, i've decided to get the muteki nuts from the USA. open ended and forged 1008 steel. now the studs will snap first before the damn nuts will
  17. haha jeff.
  18. whatever is good as long as its snug
  19. thanks dude. ok, wheel bearing on the rear left is goners. so went to wholesale bearings in north sunshine and picked up one for 100 bucks! out with the old... and in with the new! and this happened on the other rear side as i tightened the lock nut. didnt even tried hard either. further more, threaded 2 aluminum wheel nuts. next time, steel ones all over. not buying aluminum ones anymore now rolling on 3 nuts... not cool. will use the good studs on the other shot wheel bearing and hub and swap them over. taking it easy on the left turns but the right... oh yeah!!! :P might just replace the other hub bearing too since its only 100 bucks lol
  20. time to get those angry monkeys on... (thanks to fillit, 4ABHGE and Woot Woot) introducing the C60 gearbox with quaife LSD monkey wrench racing. 3.9:1 final drive ratio (the same ratio at the 5spd corolla gearbox) transferring the parts over... poor car bleeding... taking the box off... checking the clutch was aligned properly. had to check with eyes in the end. stupid aligning tool was useless as! slot 1 slot 2 slot 3 after our first attempt. we got to this and raged quitted for the day. we couldn't get the gearbox on for hours. sir woot woot and sir 4AGBHE and i couldn't get the box on the damn car. so we sat there and looked at the box then ground then box again for 10 mins. sit woot woot said: i feel bad being a quitter man... then another 10 mins of looking down on the ground and the box again. after what seemed like an eternity, i jumped up and said "fuck! this box is going in TODAY! i don't give a shit!! then this happened... OH&S at its finest! and...within 15 minutes and a very sore finger... THE BOX IS IN!!! tightening back up the bolts... and verdict? I hated it at first... acceleration has slowed down in the straight line by more than 2 seconds 0-100km/hr. However... the LSD made a huge difference on the corners. I even grip in the wet too now. holy crap! and i have more fuel economy :) traveling at 100km/hr my revs at 2.5k rpm. The fun of straight line killing v8s is over... until i reach a corner, brake brake brake... i'm still accelerating looks sideways at v8 turd. "waves BYE!" :P oh, note to self and others out there. please replace the rubber o-ring that plugs in with the speed sensor, i didn't listen to sir 4AGBHE and i lost approximately 200 mls of oil in 7 days :( just replaced it today hopefully it should fix the leaking issues! long ratio gearbox, most of you guys know whats coming next... :) and just fyi... these are now my max speeds in each gear. of course all done on off roads. 1st - 80km/hr @ 8400 rpm 2nd - 130km/hr @ 8400 rpm 3rd - 175km/hr @ ~8000 rpm? didn't reach the end, gear ratio too long and road got bumpy. 4th - ??? 5th - ??? 6th - 340km/hr according to gear calculator... ;) from 1st to 2nd shifting at 8400rpm, drops to 5,300rpm from 2nd to 3rd shifting at 8400rpm, drops to 5,700rpm clearly i'm out of the power range... so maybe apexi pfc for now... and then... or maybe i should just change the final drive ratios over form the old to new box... so many options... hehe thats all for today... phew!
  21. i was thinking of putting that on my car -_- bloody hell u beat me to it <_<
