exactly the same thing happened to mine a couple of weeks ago! head maybe warpped but thats only £35 at most to get machined (usualy £20 cash 8) ). you will probably find some corrosion on the block or head though that might spell its death, theres nothing to loose taking the head off though. if i c...

no you need a working wash/wipe system to be road legal. having said that if its only over a short distance the chances of a copper doing you for it are minimal.

part number would be good, ive got 2 sets of vsk325's
bit late now though there in the engine! having said that the headgaskets gone pop already so will be cming apart again!

hmm mine were both silver! time to moan at the motor factors! wondered why they only came in packs of 8's!

the kit i had was fai, good quality alot better than most kits ive used over the years.

as above most owners buy one as a second weekend toy so wont get rid of one or if they did it would be to someone who would use it as intended. the other owners are people who cant afford new cars so want a good vaue second hand car thats a bit different so never will they buy a new car. the biggest...

shouldnt be to hard to modify the cable shifter that would be the easy bit of a celica box just bolts straight in. my worry would be the cost as they are fairly modern cars and prices for something like a secondhand 6speed box would be a few hundred quid i bet. i spose you would also need the fricti...

i was thinking about this too as the gears are a little to far apart for track driving. my only thoughts were maybe some of the corrolla models may have a lower ratio final drive that may fit.

looks absolutly mint
id love a tin top, just feel it would be a waste to turn one into a track car.

probably not much use but my track car is 1.5-1.6 rear and around 1.7-1.8 front. caster needs backing off though imho. toe is massive at the front 3mm but will back to 1 the track rod wouldn't wind in any further so need to sort them out. rear track is around 3mm and gives and nice balance to very s...

got t1r's on the track car ad my other road car, seem very good for the money as can be had for around £30 plus fitting a tyre in 15"! would recomend going for a high load rating though as my track car has only about 80 or 82 rated tyres and the sidewalls are very soft, the 92's i have on my ot...

they all look the same to me, and my replacements where the same.
fai arn't usualy that bad for the money. ill check which set ive just fitted but it was very good quality.

i only needed the engine for one trackday that was the problem, probably all of 150miles i couldn't imagine a gasket could be that bad to last less than that. but when i got the kit it was probably the worst quality gasket set i have ever seen! im now going to build up a new engine with a low millag...

so, cadwell trackday today 10laps and bang steam everywhere! pulled into the pits as i was just coming into the mountain section anyhow and it cut out just as i got in the paddock. the engine was stuppidly hot water boiling off the cam covers, blue exhaust manifold etc! anyhow managed to get some wa...

the sensors you will need are IAt (in the metal pipe or on the manifold on a 1a), tps, map and the mixture adjustment screw. also make sure all the coolant sensors are connected. theres not alot to do really so should be an easy fix.

some heat is the best way. but getting the strips off is the easy bit all the gooey mess they leave behind is much harder to remove.

i currently have a AE101 4agze im turbo charging. if using the standard managment its a bit of a nighmare thus far as i will also be junking the inletmanifold and throttle body off the supercharger as its an awful setup and just would work with a turbo. this leaves a bit of a sensor and wiring night...

dont buy apec discs there pants. brakes international or QH are good budget options. the best plain discs they you can get for any car are bembos not sure if they cover the mk1's though. the pads you have are top notch, in the rear of mine along with those pads i have the mintex extremes iirc as the...

interesting as thats the spec in the cd manual i have.
thanks anyhow hopefully the engine will all be back together today

on mine i made a subframe out of angle iron as using the standard subframe or any aftermarket one ment i would have been on in the sky! even though its only mounted just above the floors rails by about 5mm it still sits quite high with my helmet touching the roll cage and im only 5'6! you need a sea...
