Easy enough to do if you you are good with the hands

What car is it you changing them on

Just today On my 2000 is200 the ignition barrel got loose and steering won't lock

It seems that the barrel fell away from column

Any ideas pls

Could you also tell me how many of each bulb

I'm in Drogheda to mate

We prob seen eachother around ha

I've been gettin a bit on eBay and the Internet in general

What you looking for

Hey there

Welcome

I also from Ireland (Louth)

Any links to how this is dine please

My personal favourites are the last ones! They'd go well with the colour and aren't that common.

However, you'd better have some clean calipers/pads (minus the rust) as without them, wheels with a greater space in the spokes don't look as good.

The case remains the same for the BR RS wheels as well.

Lastly, I wouldn't go with the black multispoke ones as they are too commonly found on small hatchbacks nowadays.

I reckon your car would pull off the last set really well!

cheers man

the calipers and pads will be done as soon as i take off old wheels

Changing my wheels soon and looking see what ye all think

From These

To either of these

What do you think

Hey all

Just wondering can anyone tell me or help me out

My steering is heavy on engine idle and on slowing down coming into corners

Doesn't always happen on slowing down only the odd time

Always there on tick over

Also wat is the sensor on power steering pipe on top of pump for

This has a single wire on it

Could this be the problem or is my pump on way out

Thanks in advance

Martin

Have a look now thanks

Hey all,

not sure how it works here but it the Celica forums most people have one thread where all their work etc is posted to less mess and easier to keep track. I thought i'd do the same here. Hope I don't break any rules.

Here goes.

Bought the car last week. Black IS200 Sport with high miles, but good service history and good paint etc. This is my daily driver but will evolve into something special hopefully. I have been known to turbo charge a car or two, and it might well be on the cards but that's later in life.

Since I bought her, I have replaced the side lights, removed the tow bar and jet washed the engine bay. Next week I will do a service and replace the plugs with NGKs and paint the calipers. (unsure whether to go with black, blue or silver). Red is not an option.

The CD player is not working so it has a standalone Kenwood CD changer through the radio, but I have plans for the audio later in the summer.

general cleaning with Tony's EG6 Civic. He has a turbo EG as well.

Mum's MB6 Civic VTi

I would like to know once and for all if the Auto Leads facia will delete my traction control and heated seats switched. (read somewhere).

Here are my plans for the car.

Front strut bar

Rear strut bar

Replace bushes

quick shift and TRD or GReddy Gear knob

IS300 cat back system

Gut out pre cats and leave the standard one in place

lower 40mm

4300K HIDs

tinted rear lights

fit my Pioneer iPod / Bluetooth head unit

front MB Quart components

Rear coaxials

4 channel amp to run front and rear speakers with fresh wiring

2 channel amp for subwoofer

general maintainance as and when they need doing

change interior illumination lights to blue LEDs (I have NO idea how to do this)

paint some engine and interior plastics silver, or black again.

Please add any comments and advice. I have read through several threads over the last few weeks but would like to hear from people who have already done bits.

Cheers.

Jason.
