  1. Thanks for the info, but I need to know the exact model for the rails if you can tell me which one did you buy. I found a RO type for $250. Is this a good price? Thanks. $250 is the average price for bride rails, if u cant find any to suit your car, try www.importmonster.com.au
  2. the ba falcon we owned did the same thing. as well as my mates 180sx. i have owned 3 toyotas in my short driving life ( iam 20 ) a sv21 camry, a 2000 corolla conquest , and a 1990 jza70 supra. the sv21 camry we had from new until about a year ago when someone crashed into me, the corolla we also had from new and my supra i picked up december 05 to be honest ive thrashed the crap out of all of these cars. gave them an absolute hammering. and after years ( 15 for the camry, 1.5 of which were when i was driving) of abuse these cars have been as perfect as when they were purchased. This quality i have not seen in any other brand of car that i have been associated with ( friends cars etc ) the only problems ive ever had is on the camry when it was about 14 years old the water and oil pump blew. which i replaced for i think $50 for both, second hand. this quality in contrast to mums ba falcon, which we had for around a year until the brake master cylinder decided to have a catastrophic failure, causing me to be driving along at near highway speeds with no brakes whatsoever. say what u want. but dont speak down about toyota quality due to your 1 month of owning one. some cars are mistakes.. they have general faults. the same as ppl dont rate something as crap just because of one example. thats allmost the definition of racism
  3. you were bloody lucky my friend, the cop went easy on u. my fine was $1550 it only takes one of them to teach u a lesson
  4. waiting for his greens, wont really make a difference he was travelling 30km/h over the speed limit, which is an automatic 3 month suspension, no matter what license u hold. they wont send a letter to u until u have paid the fine. unfortunatly ( and dont quote me etc ) if u live in nsw, your gunna get double screwed over. because of the new red p plate laws. any speeding offence is an automatic 3 months. plus the automatic 3 months for driving 30km/h over the limit. that means quite possibly 6 months in total :(
  5. you may continue to drive untill u have recieved your letter of suspension no the letter will be sent to the licensed address. as u were the one commiting the offence not the car. the rta will not take your license away from u . u will be able to hold on to it for identification purposes etc when the suspension period is up u may begin driving immediatly, no need to go to the rta for any reason
  6. after u pay the fine u will recieve a letter in the mail informing u of when your license will be suspended from and for how long the longer u hold of paying the fine the longer u hold off the suspension just dont let it go to dept recovery or you will be charged an additional $55 per fine
  7. doesnt sv21 camrys come with power steering. mine did. if so iam guessing u just need to go to a wreckers and get all the additional parts u recquire
  8. pumping the accelerator wont do crap on an efi engine. did any of you guys do the basics and swap spark plugs etc ???????
  9. here u go http://www.greenline.jp/catalogue/bccatpar...gory=suspension there are also cusco ones on there as well which are about half the price oh sorry.. just saw when this thread was posted :(
  10. if u want a pfc better get in fast before prices skyrocket
  11. with my supra. my car pings on all fuels except for bp ultimate. mobile i think is the only other fuel that doesnt. but i have none near my house so thats out. the problem with shell is inconsistancies. they can be great one week and ****house the next. allthough i think my car is on the limit of fuel quality. with the blitz access ecu, which was tuned for japanese fuels, and my afc neo tuned on bp, and a smidgeon under 1bar of boost. that probably explains my results. no idea on fuel ecconomy. i dont really care, its all seat of the pants meter for me :D
  12. yea i kno lol :P but there was nothing else in the supra section and i got bored.
  13. abuse how ??? iam thinking on a performance car such as the trd aurion, youd want it to hold together after a flog through the twistys
  14. iam not huge fan off crome myself, but considering your number plate i guess it suits the cars look. :) needs lower offset wheels tho
  15. after u have disengauged the tc , how do u turn it back on again. ??? also didnt they cease selling the trd aurions for a while because in a demo model a conrod parted with a piston ?? if so your lucky to get one when u did :D
  16. my mum just got a quote on her car through her work brand new sx6 with tinted windows floor matts, metalic paint, light protectors etc $33000. dont kno how this applies to u mate, but just something to go off.
  17. hey iam definatly up for a cruise next time you all go ( if i have my car back together , stupid toyota japan ) i only just found this site. do you ever head up towards newcastle way ??
