  1. Lol omg it's about time. Yay I got paid. $1250 hoorah
  2. Hmmmm interesting. They are quite similar. My D2's have been sitting at my feet for the past 2 months lmao (mmm the coils are so theraputic for my toes). They'll go in soon, and I can't wait. I got mine on special for $1300. 36 way damper adjustability, camber plates, ride height...they are stiff however as mine are track rated. I believe Steve's are as well. You have to have kidneys of steel to have them, and I have to say I'm used to my other car in that regard so they are no problems for me.
  3. They're mostly little fiddly bits that are ironed out now. The major issue being the ecu recall on some 03 and 04 models, but it's dependant on the date. Ask Bill at the meet this weekend man and he'll enlighten you on that. Other problems that I had ironed out were: *Gear selector cables (that annoying buzzing noise that grows with revs) *Clutch adjustment (I don't crunch gears anymore...amazing lol. It allows the clutch to compress harder.) *Front Rotors (well, this wasn't exactly ironed out but I found the cause of it. I thought it was a warped rotor on mine but it turns out dirt and rocks etc can get caught in there, remember that if you hear grinding noises ;)) Fair enough it's a bit of a rattle trap inside sometimes, but I've sat in worse cars lol.
  4. So the photos are in your myspace gallery Pete? I need to see her again...I need my fix lmao.
  5. different from stock wat? i rekon they a nice alternative to getting colourcoded rear mudgaurds. go low! ;) ;) Mick0082 has a white facelift here as well Daz and he was also conisdering grabbing those rear pods. Jase, don't be worried about going low, you just gotta drive wiser that's all. Heck, I'm going to be sitting 100mm to 110 mm off the ground once the P1's and coilovers are in haha.
  6. "Yes we are laaadies having a laaaaadies afternoon teeea..." "Do excuse me dear, I just have to powder my nose." "Oh of course dear of course!" *Walks to the male toilets* "Ahem...AHEM!" *Realises and backpans and goes to the female toilets* "Don't forget to sit down when you p!ss!"
  7. Spotted the lovely Karen again yesterday in her red chariot. Subtle reminder to come to the meet haha.
  8. Godmother still owns a 95 vienta. The thing hauls from 3,000 rpm on to 6,000 odd. It doesn't stop either. Impressive motor. Quadcam > pushrods lol
  9. Oh yeah man, one of the funniest cartoons SBS has ever had man. I've been watching Little Britain so much lately though. "I wawnt that woonnnne"
  10. Bilal is putting a quad cam turbo in the Avalon...more to come.
  11. I was tossing around the idea of installing a custom two gauge a-pillar pod and having the lower one occupied by a shift light. I've been looking around and the majority of shift lights available are pretty long and wouldn't really fit in properly. Given that I absolutley hate electricity and don't touch this sort of stuff I was wondering if any of you guys have pro's and con's on this idea. Have I concieved something cool? Or am I dreaming? hmmm.

    Brandon and I have spoken of having a huuuuuuuge Sydney/Melbourne/Canberra meet up in Albury or somewhere central. Would require immense planning, but worth it as we get to meet people. Johnny has set the standard when it comes to the vip look. I think he and mick0082 both get the awards for most posh looking Sportivo on TOCAU ;) lol
  13. She's studying to be a teacher ;)
  14. lmfao hahaha...is it really that hard to find reverse? I just backhand it in...goes in fine lol. note: probably better to the let the flywheel die down before finding reverse otherwise you'll get the characteristic CRRRUUNCH.
  15. Omg this is awesome haha. I stay at Mish's? Filo food... I stay at Bilal's? Lebenese cuisine... I stay with Andrew? Laksa...butter chicken...mee goreng to the max... I will let you guys know by tomorrow. Due to my tax not coming back yet I've had to postpone my wheel purchase again. The P1's will be paid for and arrive next week hopefully. In saying that, I may be able to make it up now, but I'll have to see ;)
  16. Might need to look back @ the history of the forum mate as i do believe Adrian wasnt exactly the only person who fought the fight with toyota representing this forum ..... although im not going to take anything away from him as he probably did everything he can .... as did i i.e. traveling OS, speaking to the engineering dept overseas, speaking to the guys who set the adr rules in the government .... being the 1st trail for the ecu recall and shift cables recall .... getting action for other member .... Back on topic ..... i'm really keen to see what toyota and honda have brewing as they are keeping very very quiet at the moment in the hot hatch scene and the japs arent the type that like to be beaten to the punch ..... Blow it eout your awwwwrse bul. Feck off. I agree also. Very keen to see what happens. Given that Honda are N/A nuts and everything else is going the way of forced induction. Will be very interesting. You raised a good point last night Bill. Danz, come on, the boy racer still lives inside you. Buy the celica and mod it up!
  17. I'm like, that anal about weight that I could never do that lmao. So impressive though. I'm eager to get quax finished so I can parade him around with you guys. He doesn't fit in atm.
  18. Already got poon tats. I got a massage last night too. Awesommmeeeeeeee.
  19. That was also sealed off into a box where the carby was ;)
  20. For the record, I will be in Sydney next weekend anyway on other business (the coilovers, servicing the car, and seeing a friend I haven't seen in a while). Rob will be lurking lol.
  21. Corey, you look like a youthful version of Julian Barrington (the proprietor of the Good Guys here in Tuggeranong Canberra) haha ;) Now you give me good deal on TV, good product and cheap price. Mau mau!
  22. Mish I'm officially out now. I will be up the next weekend though staying at a friends. Getting the car serviced by my godfather and dropping the coilovers to him so he can preset them (going to sit perfectly when they go in...no screwing around).
