You will always get horror stories, but you have them from all tuners/engine builders too. If you do it your self and your not sure on something you stop and do some extra research, i always say to myself if im going to do something im not going to set a deadline as thats when things go wrong rushing get them finished. Im a perfect example, my first 4efe i changed the head gasket after replacing my valve stem seals, but didnt torque it down properly as i didnt ask enough questions and i wanted it done. it blew through as you'd expect. second time around it was fine as i knew what i was doin

Thats exactly it, Id say your battery then. try it with jump leads get it running and if youve got one put a multi meter across the battery it should read about 14v's when running as thats what the alternator charges it at iirc. If its less than that it may be your alternator thats not been charging the battery

Chuck some jump leads on and try it, starter motors require a lot of amps to turn, your radio and dash lights require hardly anything. I've got a different immobiliser but if i dont start the car within 30 secs of unlocking it it just engages and kills the starter signal, everything else stays on When this happens.

Getting into a cars the easy part, every one knows how to break into a car lol, getting it started is slightly harder. If you want to stop your car getting stolen get a alarm/immobiliser and even steering wheel to gearstick clamps. The more deterrants the less likely your car will be targeted

Not much you cant do in a shed tbh, an engine is only nuts and bolts, all they need to be its torqued up correctly. Occasionally get parts worked on by a machine shop but thats about it. Tuning on the other hand, i wouldnt do that myself on a built motor.

Erm pass, they have 256mm brakes and my speedlines have loads of space so id think they would

Theres one here at Jae

Well being a bloke it took the whole of 30mins to get up get changed and pack the car, need to get some gas, food, drink and water which ill do in a bit. even managed to get everything in the boot surprisingly then got to go get a mate and all his stuff and we'll be 100% sorted but she'll be fully loaded then haha

Supposed to be leaving around 1 today, havent even started packing, still need to go food and drink shopping and get some gas for my stove. Havent cleaned the car and if i am to swap the bonnets over I've yet to do that also! Meehhh im sure ill manage

The SR corolla isnt a 4afe, its a Zz engine which is an all alloy unit. Downside, early prefacelifts can burn a bit of oil, later ones had revisions to help minimise this. Having had a facelift 1.4 corolla with full Sr trim the last 4 years i wouldnt shoot it down straight away, obviously the gt has far more potential with less work but for day to day dealings the corolla is leaps and bounds ahead. Even though its not a fast car it is satisfying car to drive, seating position is lower, handles well for stock, is comfy, can seat 5 adults, well refined, economic etc etc. even after hours and

it was the reply to post tab and follow topic one that was moved first from 10mm to 11mm, think a lil bit of miss interpretation was taken by socks on his first attempt

how on earth do you get them 2 mixed up?

Sammy next time theres a corolla club meet post it up on here as well.

Glad you sorted it

And different mirrors ;)

I've got a couple of part gearboxes, ill try get it off tonight if i find a spare minute, Pm me your details and ill try get it sent out. Only ask to cover postage and a small donation would be welcome.

That looks mint, in reality its a lot of money for what you get but id still love one

That'd be a bit sneaky, but i might give it a try

If theres space and you want to fill it i could pop my car over for a bit on one of the days.

As long as i dont have to see them doing it that fine lol

Ill come for a drive around so you'll see it ;)

I wanna say the purple one. Its labled spd on the diagrams

I wonder how much that wrecking ball would sell for in an auction now. "Up for grabs it one wrecking ball which had had miley cyrus' snatch rubbed all over it, starting bid...."

I doubt you'll be the first or the last plus You'll have to find it first, not on this stand

Might put the matte bonnet on and bring my chalk with me. Get a mass JAE signing on it
