  1. As i said the other day...........HOW DOES THE "SMOKE" SMELL is it sweet or oily????????????????????????????????????????????????????
  2. More likely to be robbed in the sticks hun! No-one to see or hear whats going on
  3. How does it smell?? Sweet or oily? Looked in the rad cap to see if theres oil in the coolant?? Looked under the oil filler cap for mayo???
  4. Might be a hole in your exhaust making the noise of you've got a mild mani, or you have a couple of loose mani nuts.
  5. Buy a car on condition of it not the miles :surrender: It may have had some hammer but what starlet hasn't??? Whats to say the "standard" one wasn't modded before and put back to standard for sale. If the mods are in good condition and fitted properly etc i would go modded as it will potentially save you mucho cash in the long run. It could also bite you on the ass if the coilies are leaking etc. Check for a FCD as they are often not set up right which could cost a lot to sort :drunk2:
  6. It's shite! i want the snow back!!

    Is this you Jo?

    Looks like a bit of a special needs photo there
  8. I would have one but they need a bit more oomph really! The altezza would be my choice, or you could pick up a tidy N/A supra for 4K Theres a lot of IS200's on auto trader well below 4K with as little as 60K on the clock
  9. So no boost gauge and you say it's boosting to 0.9 bar?? How the chuff can you say that with no gauge??? The 3 lights on the dash mean next to nothing in the real world except showing that you are on boost!! The exhaust will be causing it to cut in the colder air recently, You should feel it about to hit cut before it actually does it it will hesitate slightly then if you are a numpty and keep pushing it you get the bang of it cutting the fuel. Get the basics sorted out before you go faffing around with upping the boost.
  10. Do you have a decat/ aftermarket exhaust fitted?? That would cause fuel cut in the cold weather. Turn the actuator down if it's an HKS one which it probably is and i bet it sorts the problem out. Get an FCD if you wanna bugger the engine search that one
  11. Try it and show us how good/wank it looks then! If you want a carbon look bonnet buy a carbon bonnet, if you want to look feckin stupid then go down the carbon film route! It looks nothing like the real thing
  12. For a change the Cal speaks sence!! He has my old WEPR on his car. Tbh it was a doddle to fit, keeps a/c the only down side was the shit joiners which i swapped for silicone ones
  13. BHP is nothing without torque
  14. Shame it's a VW! Sounds nice but i really don't like the VAG cars reliability! It's really not as good as folk think!!! Personally i woulda had a nice Toyota caldina or mitsubishi legnum VR4 estate at less than 1/3 of the costs!!! The main thing is you guys like it and all the best with it.
  15. Go to halfords and look on their chart or toyota and ask them!!! It's pretty easy really!
  16. If you drive like a twat in it of course you'll break something! You should start in 2nd on ice anyway, stops the wheelspin and gives you traction
  17. It was ace! Most of our snow is still here as it froze last night so it may be worth going back again today!!
  18. We had a nice dump of snow today in gloucestershire 8"-12" in a few hours so 5 of us found a field and made a jump for the snowboards!! Nice bit of powder at the bottom to land in so no injuries Got a few pics too! Me on guinness board
  19. I thought there was but couldn't find it!
  20. You could also try looking on the other side http://www.toyotagtturbo.com/forums/showthread.php?t=68

    ABS fault?

    A leak in your braking system, old brake fluid or a dodgy master cylinder maybe?
  22. Fuck that! I'm not ruining my board! it's very rare!!!!
