Hey lads and girls I'm thinking of making the trip over my 1st time I'm just wondering what ticket should i get is their limits on each ticket other than access to the grandstands , like access to some cars? which day is best to go or does it matter

thanks

I did the same as keith but masts are over €40 here so I took the whole lot out and put a crappy one instead for a while , then i came across a crashed 97 st202 celica noticed the whole lot is practically the same and put it in my GS only changes you'll have to make is to change the blue/green box for the GS unit near the motor and modify :winky: the mounting bracket works fine on my car

Mk IV Supra antennas are the same too so if you find a crashed one it should swap straight out

drivers side rear door window motor can give up

rocker cover gasket starts to let ol gunk ooze out

brake caliper seals tare and let dirt in making pistons stickey cheap enough fix if you do it diy

and as soon as you can covert the dips to 6000K Xenons trust me its well worth it

you have the springs for separateing the pads in ?

Would that cause the noise then? If I remember correctly, the spring on that side was all bent up and I think we left it off.

it could ,there should be two springs there top and bottom , I say it could cos all mine are in and it still squeals a bit

Mine are always doing it when I'm getting petrol i blow the dust out of them with the air hose stops the squeeling for a small bit

you have the springs for separateing the pads in ?

the steering wheel in my beast is getting a bit tired , Some members may have faced this at some time how did ye deal with it Diy or other means ? I was hoping to do it diy as i cant really park it for a few days

thanks

I'm 23 driving a 94 GS300 before this I had a 1.6 Corolla sprinter executive, before that it was a 1.3 Corolla Sprinter my dad has had camrys for the last 20years were toyota faithful in this house ;)

Are Camrys still available in Ireland?

When I went looking last September for a new one to replace my 3 litre 2003 model, I was told they are no longer available in the UK - which is why I changed to Lexus.

Before the Camry, I had had a series of Nissan QX/Maximas, but they don't import them any more either.

the last of the camrys,celicas,MR2's dried up about the same time here as well

In the uk its 99 Ron but the V-power over here (ireland) is 95Ron because of our goverments tax on higher Ron fuel, little or no places sell LRP (Lead replacement petrol) here anymore because it sold so little when it did it was over double the price of normal petrol as i can remember 95ron petrol was about 73 cent per litre and LRP was about €1.27 when it was sold

Tesco was supposed to bring in 100Ron petrol early 2006 but it never happened

It is by sites I've seen but i dunno if theres anywhere in cork that does it , I've only ever heard of places in dublin doing it, the AV Service Center

in FR Matthew Quay is the only place i can think of that might know

the odometer only appears for the first 30 seconds or so. after this, it just fades away.

odometer will be €125 from your dealer, you wont have the orignal mileage on the car anymore tho as the memory is on the pcb under the display if you know a reworker in a electronics factory they could change the displays

its not that easy to break the steering lock you would need a good size screwdriver and hammer to do that, toyota steering locks are very strong i had to get one off a camry once and it look a fair amount of time there designed to be put on once and not to be taken off the heads of the bolts holding it on are rounded off so its hard to do a diy job on it

worst I've seen was a 94 civic no wonder theres so many stolen

it should lock with the key out of the ignition , mine does and the wheel does its party piece tho its a mk1

Mine did kinda the same thing number 1 disc holder has just a tiny bit broken off it (i didnt do it) and it went searching through the discs finally put up ERR took the disc out of no 1 into another and has been fine since, if your Battery is a bit dodgy it will go a bit daft too

It doesn't look dangerous, merely pointless and stupid.

Takes all sorts.

bit like speeding tut tut

caught by the dangleys

spotted this one on eBay sits very well on those rims

wikipedia say 226 hp (169 kW) 2JZ-GE engine, import sites says 220 so I think between 220 - 230

You were right chips, Thanks

the 2 screws at the bottom of the door and 1 on the corner just above the door latch , take off the garnish around the door handle by prying the top and bottom corners behind the handle out toward with a screwdriver ! tape the tip of the screwdriver so you won't puncture the trim! then slide it back it should then come off easy.

Remove the red light on the door and theres a good size screw inside undo the wire going to the puddle light as well , then the ashtray/window switch is a bit of a struggle raise it with a screwdriver ! tape the tip of the screwdriver so you won't puncture the trim! , theres a clip underneath on the right side of the ashtray/window switch , i ended up taking the clip off the door card and sliding the ashtray/window switch back and out theres also a light for ashtray that comes out by giving it a pull , under the ashtray/window switch is another good size screw inside

the door card should come off easy now by lifting it up and out

Thanks chips I'll hav a go at it tomorrow will let ye know how i get on
