ohmygod guise i specifically said no discussion so that once it's answered it can fall to the bottom seeing as you guys keep bumping it.. you leave me no choice but to picture bomb this post with beautiful UCF10s. ^^^UCF21 face -
it will be your injector collars... or "O" rings... a lot of "well known mechanics" use these O rings because the old ones corrode from old age. but if you dont use nissan they dont seal up correctly and they make you question why you're getting 3km/litre economy. ps: drop the midland lingo - not many people understand it

Yeah but you're a top bloke all day Nic. Toff you missed my point.... I know they were only ~100 fixes each but that all peters into nothingness when you simply fall out of love with the car regardless...

i've had two "run ins" with the law... i was once in northbridge.. cop car pulls up next to me... cop winds his window down and says "mate nice car! i used to have one of them back in the day but wasn't half as nice as that... look after it wont you!" drove off one other time got pulled over by two bike cops who said that i was doing 80 in a 60 zone... (i wasn't... and they didn't really contest that) cop told me "wait in the car please" walks around to the front... sees my HID lights... walks around to the other side.. sees my rims.. 18s front 19s back.. walks to back.. sees my IS F exhausts.. ...comes back to me n goes.. "i never seen this kind of lexus before.. what is it?" "uhh it's the SC officer" "shit. looks nice.. is it new?" "no officer. it's 16 years old" "are those rims factory?" "well yes and no.. they were a dealer option.. the first owner must've got them" "they look really nice!" "thanks" "it's a pretty nice car... usually lexus's aren't sport but this is a nice one!" "thankyou officer" "well my partner's checked your dirivng history says you're clean... so just be careful wont you.. lots of crazy idiots out there" ...driving a soarer = awesome.

Well only second gen 97 onwards Have v12... Previous are v8... But either way I drove past the shop I could not see if it was first or second gen cars... They were definitely centuries though... My girlfriend is witness!!! I wonder if maybe the two cars were Japanese embassy cars perhaps? It's crazy but not THat crazy... -
Does Anybody Know Any Shops In Perth That Can Do This!?
Mr Eps replied to Mr Eps's topic in Western Australia
yeah it's darth vader's helmet but that's not the point! -
seeing as you asked... it's black. leather. much faster and drives like a DREAM compared to my cefiro!!!! i loved my ceffy don't get me wrong.. for a while there i was like "im gonna keep both cars and have one white four door and one black two door LOL OPPOSITES DAY" but the moment i got back from bali... i jumped in the cefiro and drove to work. i got in.. the power steering was humming. it pulled to the left from a bent control arm.. the brakes were grinding after replacing the pads god knows how many times.. the passenger window was on and off with when it wanted to work. the doors felt like cheese. the tyres were badly worn with camber.. the rego was due soon.. and i was driving along tallying up the LCA i needed, the tyres, the brakes, the alignment, the steering rack etc... plus the coilovers were starting to give out.. and i realised that after six years of loyalty... i was just tired with it. it's all well and good to get waves from skyline and silvia owners who are like "YEAHHHH CEFFY SIKKUNNT" but there gets to a point where it's simple self mutilation to own one as a daily driver.. like to own one that's a weekend drift car or to have one that's sitting in a garage while you build an engine for it etc... that's fun to have it as a fun car.. but when you use it to drive to and from work every day. to drive to the shops... to go to long haul road trips down south... etc etc... that's when you want a problem free car.. coincidentally.. it was this same week that after months of being on the market, i sold it... ...anybody here remember the ad?? hahaha... BEST. AD. EVER. these days: im 25. turning 26 this year... give me a leather interior'd. invisible to cops.. cruise control having... digital climate control having.. working power windows having.. electric sunroof'd.. electric seated dual airbag car with EVERY modern safety feature that STILL has a huge turbo on it... that STILL gets 11km to the litre economy... ...give me that car ANYDAY! still love you guys but.

first of all... this is my opinion. so shoot me if i'm wrong. but unless you're pretty much born into it - forget "professional racing" people don't just one day up n decide they're going to be a professional drift racer. idiots like juan pablo montoya are born into rich families and start driving go karts etc from a very early age and graduate into the "professional circuit" if you're 17/18 whatever... and don't know much about cars / driving / want to dabble then forget making a professional career out of it because beleive me. life is not like gran turismo. you dont do 4 laps of high speed ring and make 10,000 credits. i was once talking to this guy that was a door to door salesman selling some spray on car wax and i asked him "is this what you do for like, your main job?" he said OH NA NA i just sell this for fun cos i like the product, my main job is drifting. i have an R33 drift car and a S14 race car. and i just travel around WA attending any and all drift events n just make money off that.. ... i was like... much??????????????????????????? BUT if you want to get into it and do it for some fun then for pete's sake go buy a car, borrow your dads mountain biking helmet and go rip some skids... as for the power concerns etc. these are the main factors you need to know: SUSPENSION. HARD AND LOW SUSPENSION EXHAUST. get straight pipes. none of this "jasma" jdm CRAP. get mild steel, no pre muffler. SOLID PIPES. a DECENT air filter. any other "power" mods - deal with them AFTER you've had some fun with it. ie: if you want to boost the engine. do it. if you want bigger injectors. do it. all im saying is: GROW A PAIR and just "get out there" dont think about it too much. and you won't go wrong!!! but for christs sake do it in something more exciting than ANOTHER FKN NISSAN. do it in something with SERIOUS character. something that has charisma you know? allow me to rant with pictures... MA70 supra with NO IM NOT TELLING YOU WHAT THEY ARE COS I WANT A SET rims. Z20 soarer MA61 supra 910 bluebird etc etc my point is - dont worry too much about reading reams and reams of info on the net. VISUALISE a car within your budget constraints. and go from there. deal with problems as they arise. =)

As hinted. I don't want a long winded answer or a lengthy discussion here guys Toyota Celsior UCF10 and centuries. Can they be sevs imported? See heaps of celsiors ...surely they cant ALL be 15 year cars??? And the other week I saw two centuries next to each other parked outside a shop... Surely the chances of there being two next to each other That are both private imports would be incredibly remote.... Oh god I've said whey too much. So yes no can you import either car??

Did you??? Til when?? Come back I'm at my gf's in dianella right now

My Soarer Is Starting And Stopping..
Mr Eps replied to Shmee33's topic in General Automotive Discussion
there is no reason for oil to be in the diagnostics port you are talking about THIS right? http://www.soarerworld.com/forum/attachment.php?attachmentid=10634&stc=1&d=1149099019 ^^^that's a diagnostics port, it's in the engine bay and it's next to the intake manifold.. or are you confused with something else...? and did you call me from someone else's phone? a girls phone? oh and sorry i missed the call man, I'm.. not very well today and was passd out in bed -
