Fri & Sat spent detailing interior & engine bay of a 740 I just picked up-actually more scrubbing than detailing-it was seriously grubby but looks a million bucks now. Today-sweet f/a Tomorrow- do 740's exterior or maybe not haha

I had 4 tyres sent CHCH to Napier with Mainfreight recently & it was around $130 IIRC. They were good to deal with too.

Looks like a nice score & good price too if its the one thats been on tm. Go the black leather.

You'll never get the same performance from sport mode that you get driving manually. Get rid of the rear resonator & muffler & replace with a single free flow muffler. Better response,sounds great & looks sooooooo hot LOL As I understand it,because of the o2 sensors you can't remove the cats. You can also replace the monster muffler thingy forward of the rear axle with straight pipe to the existing muffler(but remove the adjoining resonator) To this From this

The obc's a waste of space anyway-just rubbish.

Yep,have to agree-looks s**thot. And your car looks alright too hahahahahaha

That figures - when you think about it LOLThats something I didnt know-its why I enjoy BSport-always new info to be had.

Nice DIY One point tho: I have been told NOT to use carb cleaner on the ICV as it is too harsh In fact my can of 'Nulon' carb cleaner states 'not recommended for use on ICVs'. Any comments guru's?

The vin will start with 'Z' (SA) as opposed to the usual 'W'(Germany)

Common sense says Corrolla-cheap,super reliable,(but boring)-excellent for a daily.

F*** thats ugly-& its got tits in front LOL

You sure its the pedal & not the master cylinder.

John,I was telling Simon the other day how much I admire the young guys like yourself who have the skills & determination to achieve what you do on limited budgets. If DRTDVLs idea could be organised & you were keen I'd be happy to organise a trailer & tow wagon(something styly) & drag you up to Ak for a weekend of restorative maintainence.

You have to love our postal service. That took 2 days less than it took getting them from the states.WTF. Glad you like them.

I think it must be a 6spd Dinan SC in disguise lol

Welcome mate-a young guy down the road has one which is a work of art. I leap up to check it out every time he goes past. BM style,rotary power-nice.

Surprised a smart man like you would make that comment John.Didnt do me any harm & I retired at 50

With your PS'd rims & reverse number plate gotta be 10 at least

I reckon this takes some beating. Have been watching it for at least 18mths on TM http://www.trademe.co.nz/Trade-Me-Motors/C...n-240089175.htm

You need some clears or smoked. Which I happen to have if interested. $130 all up for a pair of side markers + a pair of front indicators.

Now you've got the pics sussed. I like this car a lot-good luck with the sale.

Actually I dont mind version #1 But your rambling posts are doing my head in - heard about sentences,grammar,syntax?

There was a set of 16's on TM recently for $650 buy now.

+1 Mark I think it would be a great asset if not too difficult to do.

Now heres the thing-had a good look at the auto today & there is no switch that we can see. The only electrical connection is the inhibitor switch. My mate who dropped the box(while I was waging war with the pedals) swears there was no other plug. Is it possible reverse could be activated by a switch on the shifter itself? Still doesnt explain the lack of wires tho.
