  1. Just so you guys know, you can bargain them down a fair bit if you know how to or just want to save some $ Ages ago I bought my first set at a special price of $125ea. for 195/50/15 I told them that I needed a 4 wheel allignment as well as would pay cash. It ended up costing me $600 total.
  2. LOL! That garden edging front lip is ghetto as!
  3. Some parts I manage to accumulate. The brake pads and radiator cap arrived today. cheers
  4. Thanks guys The RE001's were very good, a good bang-for-your-buck tyre thats for sure. Quiet, awesome grip and not too bad in the wet. I really don't have anything bad to say about it. I went with Kumho's this time 'round as they were only abit more expensive but with softer compound. Definitely more noise and stiffer sidewalls but that doesn't phase me too much. Will keep the updates coming, tomorrow maybe.
  5. I know that these wheels won't appeal to alot of people but I personally like them so that's fine by me. Plus, I wanted a change and I got it. Had the rear guards lipped further this arvo and first impressions are: These KUMHO sidewalls are stiff! That's ok - they are near semi-slick compound so thats understandable. Still scrubbing slightly on bumps/dips so going in for a wheel alignment and see how much camber I get in. Have parts coming next week. Will post then. cheers

    I rate Tamiya bodies far greater than HPI, found HPI to be very disproportionate in terms of scale. Anyway, light kits: This is my wiring diagram And finished The accessories like mufflers can be bought at hobby stores

    My MR2 started out like this: Currently sits like this: Still have to finish it off when I get the chance. I was one of the members that made an appearance at Melbourne Auto Salon and Drift Fest with the RCD1 crew some time back
  11. Haha Its ok you can say skinny ***** asians :P Were you the guy @ the dyno day that wanted to see what it felt like getting in and out? It's funny, at most events people see my bucket seat like Ferris wheel.
  12. New wheels arrived. About to confirm that my TOM'S wheels have now sold, see if the guy will come through. My flywheel arrived as well but no pics.
  13. hey dwee, Just wonder. Is your car manual? I only ask as both our cars are equipped with 100kw engines. :P
  14. Japan, I thought I paid a fortune but damn you guys are paying a fair bit for yours. This is for an AE92 Corolla by the way,
  15. Just got them. I used heavy duty double sided tape from Bunnings and haven't had a problem yet.
  16. If all goes accordingly, I'll be dynoing @ 1:30pm as previously stated but since I've got a 4AGE theres' no real comparo.
  17. My visors arrived last week from Japan but never got 'round to taking pics Gotta love EMS postage. Cost me a fortune though. Genuine Toyota FX-GT window visors, the rears don't fit as they are shorter. Fitment Also had a hit and run while I was at work. Never, ever shop at Coles.
  18. Ok I've registered. Hopefully be dynoing on the 1:30pm slot.
  19. Work has cut most of my shifts so I'll see if I can drop by. Won't be dynoing as I'm scared I'll take out the lowest HP award :P (If there was one)
  20. Just some happy snaps after a car wash. Not much done since, had the radiator installed. Now waiting on my new wheels to come from Japan. The interior is quite messy so I didn't worry too much about quality shots. Thanks for looking
  21. woo! Nice pics and thanks to those involved in making it a success. Red 'rolla represent!
