Full Service History & Log Books/Spare Keys

Comments:

This vehicle was purchased new in Canberra and has spent it's life here, being driven to and from Sydney on a regular basis.

It has a current RWC and three months registration left.

A/C works perfectly and blasts cold air.

I'm in no rush to sell, so if it sells it sells, but if it doesn't - then I keep it. :)

There is a bad point to this car mind you - the passenger side skirt has been hit by a rock some time during it's life and requires re painting. I have received a quote of $160.00 to complete this work - from Naz at Kustom Motor Finishes.

I've also just purchased many servicing consumables for the car including;

Bosch Platinum Spark Plugs

Genuine Fuel Filter

Oil Filter

Oil - Duh

Oil Filler Cap (Original was cracking)

Rocker Cover Gasket - Am planning to paint the rocker cover red or black.

Thanks Zebra.

If it does sell, it will be very sad to see it go. I think it's a wonderful car, and it really shines on long drivers with the cruise control.

Further specifications are as follows:

Weight: 1450kg - Registration is appox $7oo.oo a year.

0 - 5 km/h - 2.9 Sec

0 - 100 - 9.5 Sec (lol - sorry kids).

125 Kw

222 Nm Torque

I've always filled this vehicle with 98/95 octance fuel.

Rear Sunshade (lol)

ABS (Antilock Brakes)

Air Conditioning

Seperate A/C for each side of the car

Central Locking

Cruise Control

Leather Trim (Incl. Seats, inserts)

Power Steering

Power Windows - Front & Rear

Thanks mate, the guy takes delivery of it next week.

Now I'm looking at a TA23 Celica (1976) to plod around in. Here's a teaser of what is to come:

    • Hi soviet_merlin, We appreciate your concern regarding this possibly being some sort of PR/Political hype, I assure you that is not the case, I wish we could claim something like that, but in this case, we merely reached out for comment on the basis of the outrage we too felt, as those heavily in the automotive industry. Ps. the original source in the social media post is CarExpert not CarExplore.    Best, CE.
    • Made a bit of a discovery, but while I was cruising, I randomly decided to test to see if it worked and it showed up on my IC7. The entire time I tested it before, I never thought to turn the ignition on. I only tested it with head lights turned on but with the ignition off. Huge oversight on my end. I’m a dummy. I know. 
    • G'day all, I have drilled and tapped the hole for the relocation of the timing belt tensioner. That was straight forward. I'm unsure if I need to also put another hole for the smaller stud that the spring behind the tensioner catches on (this is how it seems to work in its original spot). Or do you not use the spring behind it and just torque it down? Thanks in advance, I did a search but couldn't find anything related and it doesn't mention it in the rb30det sau guide.
    • Hi All,  just thought I would provide an update as I know smooth (Matt) was on this forum from 2003.    my brother Matthew passed away end of may 2024 at the age of 41 from liver failure. I am not sure how many of his original team krazy friends are still on here or active but thought it reasonable to let the forum know.    if you have any photos or pictures it would be great if you could share them.    it took me a while to work out he was active on here.    thanks so much
