  1. She'll be a good car with some tlc mate :)! Will be a shame to see the soarer go, but the bigger the car the bigger the price tags n all that. Although with some of the prices people charge on here you might be better off with the soarer haha ;). (Joke before any select individuals start an argument lol).

    Look forward to getting the heart out at the weekend mate.

  2. Think that might be a bit extreme for a forum. It is a forum after all not an auction site haha :).

    If it's actually possible I'd say put a separate seller rating bar which requires a comment to post on (so it can't be sabotaged) and you write feedback as well as a rating. But I doubt the forum has that flexibility in the admin panel (regardless of money).

    I think the best bet at the moment is just searching the feedback section of the forum for the person you're thinking of buying from to see if they have any history.

    If you're super cautious you could ask for photos of the item being boxed and labelled before you pay in total lol. Just leave a deposit until the photos come through. Then send the rest for the parcel to be sent.

    Just ideas.

  3. Measure up and go to a scrapyard first i'd say.

    Me and Sam both set about raiding u pull it near york. Came away with about 100 shims of varying sizes from the toyotas.

    Some scrappys can be funny about you removing cams though... U pull it are but they never knew lol

    Did you find any other engines that had the same size shims? Trying to break down the list of cars to search for haha :).

  4. Sweet! That's better haha! Was ready to take them out again and sell them if it was going to cost £150 in shims :p... So I presume that they will all be around about the same thickness...

  5. Fuck me $10 per shim haha!?

    Cheers guys. I think the first step is to measure them so I have an idea what to look for.

    Just to clarify with measuring morgey, use feeler gauges with current shims in and lobes pointing up, remove cams and add the current shim thickness to the gap and subtract the tollerance required??

  6. My only issue with you personally is that you always argue with me for no reason. I ask why and you never justify. Feel like you're playing "chase me chase me" like boys and girls do in primary school... My main issue with you is bullying jo. I say bully because it's constantly. You never stop. I'm sick of all your shit popping up on here and Facebook all the time. Need to grow up because no one cares. This is a CAR forum.

  7. I know matt. I'm proper fed up of arguing with Aamir. He insists on bullying jo all the time with snide little comments and posts and it's starting to piss me off a bit. If he continues I'm going to ask all moderators if it's acceptable for another member to constantly give another member a hard time. Technically bullying.

  8. I've just fitted some new cams which are re grinds And require larger shims. I've heard they're available from toyota but I haven't researched yet. Has anyone done this in the past? Once I've measured the difference that I need, how do I go about ordering the shims? Does anywhere else do them or is it purely a toyota job?

    Cheers :)!!

  9. No personal jibes? Aamir constantly bickers with me and jo for no reason. Every time I ask what his issue is he responds with another childish response lol.

    And as for you having no personal jibes, the first post of this was saying it was locked because of me??? I have nothing to do with moderation lol.

    What a joke.
