  1. matt forgot corolla manifold check local scrap yards (viaduct and deatons) got the one on our matts sr from there £15 they charged which was very reasonable.
  2. going to fetch some parts this weekend matt, I know that there are a set of lowered uprated tanabe suspension(not coilovers) would this be something your interested in.there is a stainless exhaust too, decent back box on it,bit to large for us but worth considering.
  3. hi, car looks interesting potentially looking for a quadlight will pm you for more details.
  4. TRIED A COUPLE OF THESE. NO MAJOR ISSUES A LITTLE CONTACT ON REAR AXLE BUT THIS WAS EASILY SORTED, BEEN ON CAR FOR OVER A YEAR SOUNDS BETTER NOW THAN WHEN IT WAS NEW, WELL WORTH THE MONEY IMO.... PAID £$94 ON E BAY,COULDNT MAKE ONE FOR THAT.
  5. Matt keep this as standard as possible, perhaps sensible mods, stainless cat back exhaust, panel filter, some interior improvements,not manyleft like this now, will hold its money better when you sell it for a glanza. looks a really good car, you were very lucky to find this, appears that the long trip was worth it!!!!!!!!!!!!
  6. just to add to this if you log on to your local police website they have to by law publish all sites of current speed camera locations, note. due to cuts in funding I know that in Derbyshire although there are 30 plus cameras there is only two that are functioning as cameras.(have film in) they do flash but cannot be processed. is this on the A52 an "ANPR CAMERA?"
  7. window trims from experience, may be best to buy new from Toyota, they don't tend to take well when being removed, leon splitter we sourced this for lads car was actually cheaper from main dealer than e bay, when I spoke to them apparently someone had just ordered 20 ,from prices on e bay must have been selling them, average was £10 more than dealer on e bay. hope this helps.

  9. Don't know the postcode, however what about toys r us car park of the A52/ JCT 25 M1, betwixt Nottingham and Derby to meet first of all.
  10. AS SUGGESTED TRY A LOCAL HOSE COMPANY "PIRTEK" ARE A BIG NATIONAL COMPANY BUT KNOW HOW TO CHARGE. BUT MAY GET YOU OUT OF A MESS.

    Paint jobs

    hi,fellas i have read your comments with great amusement,i have been painting cars for nearly 30 years now, i started with spitty cans and found i enjoyed it, same as you guys but in my day was minis and mk2 escorts. went back to college took a city and guilds in paint and body repair, worked in numerous bodyshops some better than others, in essenence you can get a good finish with a spitty can, however there is a vast difference between this and a professional job by a quaity paintshop, a good painter these days is worth their weight in gold!!!!!!! so to all out there proffesional or not kee
