I tested the waters in selling my rev5 turbo a couple of months ago. One owner in japan and me as first uk owner, completely standard and absolutely gorgeous in cosmos blue. Had a few mikey mouse offers, but looking at how hard decent ones are to find and how immaculate this is then im seriously thi...

Nice datsun!

It felt lighter on the front but when you changed the rears it felt better??..... :-s I think to be honest the majority of this problem was in your head, and you were never going to be happy until you got what you originally wanted. Glad it's sorted for you anyway. P.S. Any local motor factors would...

Nothing wrong with the tyres you've had put on. 195 is perfectly acceptable for a 6.5J.

No problem running same size tyres all round either.


................id be more concerned about buying a bulb from toyota to be honest.

Hang on, the MOT tester's manual mentions the car registration date, not manufactured date! Registration date is still the same, the date of UK registration means nothing. For example a car in Japan made in 1993 then registered in January 1994 will still be given an L-registered plate, it doesnt ma...

I thought i'd better start a project thread on this seeing though i've owned it for a while now. It's completely standard and absolutely mint, and that is exactly how it's going to stay. No bodykits, no engine mods, no ice, no nothing..... Just straight out of the factory. For those of you that dont...

ROOKIE FTW!!

There are two main problems at the moment, credit situation of this country and the amount of tat for sale, constantly lowering the price of your car. It all depends on how long you want to sit on your car and wait to see what happens. As the turbo's get older and rarer I imagine they will gain in v...

I was talking to a mate of mine the other week who i've not spoken to in over 18 years. We used to regulaly skip school and play death matches of Doom via modem. I used to love these types of games, just basically destroy everything in sight. I've bearly played any computer games in over 10 years (m...

I imagine that would look quite nice. Not that im into that sort of thing..

Thank you!

could see the "less" bit, just couldnt get close enough or a decent photo of them to make out what it said. as mentioned, i was doing this in the dark, lol. plus i dont no much bout the brake line stuff, so didnt recognise the name. and yep, i have those tyres you mention. :thumleft: Endl...

Yeah!!.... /\ What he said!!...

Modified-export cars is yet another trading name for a guy who will take your money and you'll never see the car or your money ever again. That car may exist in Japan but it certainly wont belong to him or even be forsale for that fact.

I think they were trading previously as Mamiana Trading.

Defintately. When i get chance i'll throw some g-compound on it, cut away a few years of crap, then polish and throw some amazing glaze onto finish.

I forgot how well made these cars were. Definately a true league of their own.

Ok had a couple of hours this morning while my baby was asleep, so took the car from my unit home for abit of a clean and inspect. It wasnt the best of cleans, just a quick wash as it was -5 and I was frickin feezin!! Glossy! :) .....................(I hate leaves!!) http://www.flemingsmith.co.uk/im...

Cheers for comments. Hopefully i'll get chance to have a proper look at it this weekend, as weather is so bad and dark at like 4pm. Harry - no pictures of the woman unfortunately. :oops: Toni - I know what you mean about the colour but its so fantastic in sun light that i'll forgive it. :lol: Luke -...

what a strange woman :lol: TBF the original toyota clear sidelights aren't too clear anyway, the crystal aftermarket ones are far far nicer :thumleft: Mine still has the original stereo, not taking it out til i can find a nice double din touchscreen that i want. I know, but each to their own I supp...

Hey Bry glad to hear you've got back into mr-2's, your old one was a real credit to you. Yellow's a fantastic colour though and these mr2's seem to pull it off really well. Believe it or not I asked the woman who owned it the same thing. Aparently clear side lights were a toyota option when buying, ...

Thank you. The unfortunate thing about it was I bought the car when the yen was trading at around 200 to the pound, but unfortunately customs takes the value of the car in yen and uses the exchange rate at that time to calculate whats owed, so unfortunately customs was using the current rate of 140 ...

......another MR2. Never thought I would own one again, but this one was abit special. Anyway to cut along story short I finally managed to pick it up from the docks yesterday morning, along with several other cars which arent mr2, so no point mentioning them. :mrgreen: With the current economic cli...
