  1. Is the 86 GTS the new supra?

    Does it have the same or similar engine mod capabilities?

    I been debating seriously trading my old 06 sportivo for something newer and nicer like this little baby just wanna know a little bit more about it :)

  2. I am not sure if I need them machined just heard from a few different places I have called that its probably wise.

    I have had the car 3.5 years now and haven't done them in this time, how far apart do you do it?

    Or do you mainly do it if the rotr is warped or something?

  3. Fair enough so just replace the fuel filter anything you can reccomend in branding?

    Fuel filters do they all do the same thing there abouts or do some have little differences ie more filters for cleaner fuel or less for more flow or something?

    Don't laugh please :)

  4. Not entirely, I know very little about cars but I do believe it's belts, as when I had it serviced and I asked the bloke to check the belts for noise he suggested replacements.

    I know the air-con belt is squeaking as that squeak dissapears when I turn the A/C off.

    The other squeak is mainly at cold start and occasional driving noise I think maybe timing belt or something?

    How do you determine if the noise is bearings or belts?

  5. Replace the fuel pump filter, clean the injectors, put on a set of headers and you will see your economy drop by about 2-2.5L/100km

    As I'm sure you know by now I know squat about cars which is embarassing but I'm keen to learn.

    How much of the above can I do myself?

  6. Howdy wondering what belts are in an 06 Camry as my air-con is squeaking and there is another squeak aswell but I don't know what it is :(

    Please I know it sounds bad but can I please just have some help, I know nothing about cars but am keen to learn :)

    How much to replace all the belts or is that just overkill?

  7. With the tires i have found a place that does that same G line 552 Rim 18 inch but they sell it with a

    • tire size 225-40-18
    • Offset 38 or 40

    Whats the best? Differences?

    Im a complete amateur when it comes to this sort of thing, what does changing the offset mean? and the tire sidewall I think it is?

    45 compared to 40 means 40 is a lower profile tire correct or not?

    I know nothing help me please :help:

  8. I wanted to change from stock tag light to a blue one is this legal?

    Been searching all over the net and can't find squat :(

    Any info is greatly appreciated b4 I spend 15 on a light for a fine of possibly 10 times as much :(

  9. Ahhhhhh, I see nows says the blind me, So they will fit :)

    Your the man andrew, by the way I'm on the gold coast if your ever around coolangatta I'd love to see your ride in person

    The rims and wheels from ebay tire and wheel package are 895USD, with 600 for postage, what would be import duties im looking at?

    Thanks again

  10. Wow thanks for all your help everyone.

    So the 18x8's I was going to get basicly a no go if I dont want rubbing issues at the back like andrew said, by the way your car is awesome mate I spent hours browsing your car, envious much :(

    And as for the tires being more expensive it's still cheaper than what bob jane wants for a wheel and tire package.

    Imported rims and tires 1500AU If that

    From bob janes 2080

    Still I like those rims and wanted em to fit bt it sounds like its just not happening. Well mabe but not as easily as I expected EG Fit and Be Fine :(

    Any idea's for some decent rims then :( I like andrews but don't wanna be a rip off, already thought of ripping off other idea's :D

    Lol even with all this important advice and me knowing diddly squat I stll feel lost :(
