woot woot

Its on the sunday the 26th meet at The Diamond creek Mc donalds on Station st at around 10-10.30. Pretty much the same as the cruise we did last November.

The cruise will be on the Sunday 26th if anyone wants to come to it.

I am trying to organise a cruise on Ozcelica for the 25 or 26 of feb that was the same as the November cruise i went with all the great people i meet from here. not sure atm as people want sunday but i might have to work that day. So i might end up getting barred from it lol.

I do know that the lights on the 204 are around that price and wreckers no that also, so they do not go cheap. JDM projector ones can be had for close to 1000 last time i heard some one discusiing it. Pics would be helpful as people might be able to help if show exactly what needs doing.

I know not really helpful though.

Cheers

Cool no problems.

I thought i would ask would I be able to post this anual meet on Ozcelica? Might get some people interested from there?

Jeff it replcaes the standard plastic cover with a aluminum item which is shiny and may atrract many magpies. My fuel tank is mounted behind the rear sub frame and can be seen from the rear of the car as it mounts under the boot.

will post a pic when i can

Hey wanted to know if anyone can help me out as i want to get one ands its very shinny but do not want to get defected for it in Melb as not sure if that is legal,

Any help appreciated

Cheers

Jo

Stupid question do you have to stay for all three days????? If not then count me in for the cruise part and prob spectator at show n shine

Sorry just read it properly lol. should really not skim over things. Will try come to most of it as it sounds pretty good as long as no exams or assingments

Mountain run again!!!!!!! Gor would be good if it can be orgainised got a few friends itching for a drive. Hopefully for January

I would go for the MR2, it seems as though it has been looked after and even better she is giving a road worthy cert which is very vulable with a car of either age. MR2 are hard to work on and engine stuff is a pain, but the body kit on the celica may cause issues as it needs respraying or maybe be hiding something else. Respraying costs a lot. Get the car that has been looked after most which out of these two cars seems to be the MR2. Get both inspected though as they both may need work, and MR2 engines are not fun to work on.

If you are up for soldering and getting a bit annoyed this is also possible.

I have done this in white on my car but have not taken a photo. Also if you do not have a dimmer switch it does not come out as good as this pic.

Great write up though Kirius

That Nardi wheel is awesome. Really rare car how did she blow the turbo on it? BOOOSSSTTTTT???

Great work on te conversion. The TOMS parts must have looked like gold when you found them. The OG wheel really match the look of the car really well. Looks great

The guys at the muffler shop shoulg be able to make the pipe for you. They did for a friend on his 206 GTI RC as we used to work at the supercheap across the road. They also did my mufflers. Try reuse the old pipe by cuting it and making that the rubber ends, and getting plumping clamps from bunnings as they are dirt cheap from there. Looks good though.

If you want power you are not going to get far beyond a set of extractors from Genie which will imporve breathing and a pod filter for noise. Suspension i think start with braces depedning on how old the suspension is, its the same srtut braces as the Gt4 i am pretty sure.

I have that issue with my window also. I did not know that there were pads in the window to stop that. You might as well, i have no idea about them

Its the phillips head screw facing forwards just above the bumper. If you follow the parking light you will see it has a little tab that lines up underneath the carbon fiber grill thingy.It should be tucked into the corner near the parking light but under the grill but able to be accessed with out removeing anything. If you squat in front of the front of the car near the parker you will see it.

Hope that helps

It should be the one screw directly underneeath the headlight. NO need to keep them popped up. Should then become loose then think pull the whole thing forward a bit and should come out. Get SMD leds or ones that are not normal LEDS that blind you when they are on Sorry thats is what i ment by the focus. Jaycar should be able to show you them lit up. The parker housing is a bit tinted so it shold be fine. Just do not go for crazy bright

Hey Pete can you also post the pic you took of my car? I really want a decent photo of the car since i have none lol

Yeh they are the t10 wedge. Same for the number plate lights. Get from Jaycar for like 3 bucks for two. Make sure they are not overly blinding and do not focus light on a point as it makes them very obvious to Cops.

If you want to keep it, get the engineers cirt and make the car less defectable if possible by hiding stuff.

For the EPA test try a standrad air box and exhaust if possible, I think you will need to remove boost controler if you have one, cat converter in the exhaust as its a 10k fine if there is not one Catco on ebay make a cheap one that is stamped for australia market i think.

Depending on the cop they can pretty much defect you for anything like uncovered tow ball or the stupidist one i heard was not enough clicks in the handbrake when pulling it up.

Hope it all goes well though sound like you put a lot of effort into it, and still have love for it to just sell it.

Using a 180g power sander, did by hand but was too many flaking and cracks in the paint The bumper had a lot of changes in its life so fair amount of layers. Going to use wet and dry later when my hands stop shaking and **** but is pretty smooth atm

Got my spare bumper and started to sand it back for a repray to the original colour of my car. Takes far ages then i relaised just to get it anywhere near smooth. Seem ok but will keep going at it 2moz.

Saw a old school late 70s Corolla in orange respray with solid metal wheels lowered and a dildo shifter in Melton o high street. Looked really nice (The dildo i mean lol)

It had a front panel that was not sprayed but looked really cool.
