  1. got new gearbox in!! took in for a warrant "FAIL" tints on factory tinted windows and a rack end!! pretty sweet if you ask me!
  2. yeah thats pretty good! $480 got me belt,tensioner,x2 idlers,oil & filter, no seals at mates rates and i did the work myself!!
  3. mmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmm sexy tires!! neither are semi slick but have semi slick qualities. im not sure about the re11s but the re070 is a run flat tire. when we took mine off the rim. the tire kept jumping back on the bead coz they were so stiff. those re11s look pretty fine though. id go for them just because they look sexy opps im mean have big wide shoulders
  4. hahaha yes thats how it works for some!! my car get named depending on the mood im in.. piece of $hit was the last name. and shortly before that name was "GO YOU BITCH"!
  5. dunno. rubenH seems to know about it. you can try to PM him but he probably wont reply
  6. when was the cam belt done last?? does it have a flat spot getting back on the gas coming out of a corner? dodgy Air flow meter could be the prob too clutch is kind of the same as doing any rwd car except the front axels etc...
  7. im a bridgey man so i say go with them shales right. love em or hate em but having had a set of re010 adrenaline and re070s (expensive but mean) ive fallen for them i bought my current rex with T1Rs and theyre ok but i think they have too smaller shoulder, and subies love to scrub out those shoulders! bridgestones have good solid shoulders and nice thick sidewalls pirellis... good grip but flimsey, noisey and not worth the price also only good in a straight line like toyos dont like slop-lops (dunlops) could try yokohamas ive heard good things but havent driven on any. this is only what ive learnt since having a couple of rexes. and knowing that a rex is hard on fronts! and thats my 20cents! ;D
  8. fitted some Sti pedal covers yesterday that i bought for $20!! even got the foot rest! mean deal me thinks ;D
  9. gave the girl new rear tires to smoke up!! then took her from hamilton to napier and back need nolethane in the rear now
  10. geeeze there seems to be alot of cars just parked up!!! whats up with that? two rear CV's, two inner boots today and fix my drivers seat ;D
  11. "like button" = press done a big fat skid!! rwd wrx's are cool!!
  12. yup synergy8000. but only in some cities "lol" purple pump handles
  13. ive heard that ethanol burns slower and allthough still retaining a "98" octane rating burns at the same rate as lower RON ratings dont quote me just what has been flying around a convo ive had "lol" on the "98" matter...... i think "K's to tank" is relative to the cost. lower octane= more throttle input to make the power higer octane= less throttle input i think you get the picture running "98" is definately better to use (go to mobil not BP!!) more efficient, cleaner, + on performance as like somone earlier said the computer can run more timing and the engine can handle the boost better
  14. i tried to write "+"1 and it says..... i agree in full with you on that matter just made me a bit frustrated lol
  15. jhfsaiuhfdalshfblsakhfdlsakihglaskhgf > >
  16. i didnt write that hurr!! i wrote I agree in full with your thoughts on that matter. on that
  17. +1 on that dont worry if that clearance is less. as long as it doesnt foul you'll be sweet
  18. dunno man i only have 1 coil pack so i wouldnt have a clue where yours is
  19. isnt this the throttle position sensor?? (TPS)
  20. you dont need the AFM for it to fire up. why does the computer need to measure airflow when the throttle body is shut?? i just started mine without the AFM connected to make sure. plugs shouldnt foul unless theyre really carboned up from previously running bad. its not getting spark if you can smell fuel. id say they coils arent getting the signal to spark. (only if it is actually getting fuel) it should have a controller of some kind that could need replacing
  21. if you smell gas then it is probably is ignition. or lack of it. its not like you can just whip a plug out to check either. um sometime the starter motor can take all the power left even when jump starting. do you still have all the ignition wires connected at the battery?? starter cable and maybe 3others??
