  1. ive never really had any dealing with them. its the garage who have sold the car and always serviced it. its a bit of a pain drilling out the old bolts and fitting new ones, really dont know what to do. martin- that was my opinion about it, i havent got the terms and conditions to hand to create an argument about it if the knock it bk. i might phone them and just explain and see what they say. im not gonna tell them who i am though just incase theyre watching for me lol
  2. my standard exhaust is still sitting here but it has a broken bolt which im sure is part of the rear silencer ie welded on. is it worth while drilling them out and fitting new ones for warranty repairs. I have the clicking back axle problem and clutch slave cylinder problem. If I keep the k1 on do you think that they will still cover repairs under warranty?
  3. Come on guys get your names down!! It doesn't matter if your cars standard! Give it a wash and polish and get to it! It's all about promoting the club!!

    tax drop

    I know but if you do that then you loose your right to moan! It's all screwed as labour is the first shout and they've made an arse of it so far and Tories are only for the rich. It's a hard call, maybe we should start at discussion thread to keep this one on topic. I'm all for anyones who's cutting tax on wages, cars and petrol.

    I've just done almost 21,500. Back axle has just starting creaking and clicking! Unsure whether to extend the warranty or not? Is it worth it? Under warranty till it's 4th birthday in june

    tax drop

    No matter who we vote for they are still gonna rob us. I've been Reading into the lib dems and as much as I disagree with alot of bnp's views I'm starting to consider whether they are the only party that will actually make a difference!

    tax drop

    The Tories are cutting income tax but not heard about car tax. I wouldn't mind if they actually repaired the roads! I think they're using it to fund junkies and immigrants benefits!

  10. I'm interested too and I'm central
  11. This happened to me. Couldn't get the tc bk on. Light wouldn't go out at all. Had to restart.
  12. Can't it be done more centrally. It would probably be more cost effective to drive to surrey for it as my bro stays in staines. Aberdeens a treck from our direction.
  13. Welcome to the forum! Get urself to some meets. Especially the jockland hoon... Fantastic
  14. lol welcome mate, love the celica aswell!!
  15. Pm zmanalex mate.
  16. Come out on sat mate and I'll give u a run in mine. That will let you feel any differences.

    Fuel Costs

    I filled up 87quid and got 245 to the tank. Averaging 16.9 to the gallon
  18. Did u put the bungs in the k1?
  19. Mines sticks too. I've only got 20thou on clock and an 06. Think it's the slave cylinder leaking. Clutch is noisy in most zeds I've been in though.
  20. Kl so bk on subject. What price are we talking and what date?
  21. Sorry I made a backside of my last post. I'm on iPhone and can't edit it correctly now. What I meant to say was. Would be good to see the differences on the rolling road for an idea. It's mental that nismo state power gains when you don't. The rest of what I said is mixed in the above quote, sorry but blame it on the iPhone.
  22. Plenum, induction kit, hi flow cats or decats, exhaust. But even on a standard car some power will be found, it will be better on fuel and will have better drivabilty. TBH its about what you want and the Uprev reflash will make the best of what you have. I think anyway. I wouldn't bother with an induction kit personally. Stick with the standard induction and get a free flowing panel filter for it. Most, if not all induction kits will lose you a few bhp. sorry I may be misunderstanding you, but why would nismo design an intake if it's going to lose you power? Not meaning to be rude but just wondering what's the point of them then? Cool mate, it would be interesting to run both on dyno with each setup and see the differences. So if I box my nismo in a pipe it from front, I should get better gains? Seems mental that nismo state power gains with it and then most tuned cars run it when really you could just use standard. Very good question! I have no idea why they would do that to be honest, but a cone filter which is exposed in the engine bay (such as the Nismo one you mentioned) will never be as good as the standard induction which has a properly sealed box. Cone filters will always suffer from heat soak. Found this out myself the hard (and expensive) way! I guess people buy them for the noise and the fact it looks nice, I know I did!

  24. They're the a/c caps. They should be on but shouldn't really hav an effect. When servicing a/c the gas shouldn't be touched. Only the coils cleaned and filters cleaned. Chances are they have probably over gased the system, common but potentially fatal to the compressor. Ps I'm an ac engineer
  25. Yeah but i'd rather have the real deal DROOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOLLLLLLLLLLL!!!!!!! I have often though about changing the colour but I can't think of anything that looks nicer than gold. R Mines is a gm with gold, looks good and matches my seats.
