  1. I am sure I fitted an airbox to this car about 18 months ago. really nice car. if the repair work has been done properly and the car drives right I wouldn't be alarmed by it
  2. Bulb out should pass, have you guys tested it to see what corner?
  3. People used to chase me down in my supercharged e9. Someone even accused me of cheating when he pulled up beside me
  4. There is one around here but the guy won't even give me a price I needs to create more space for new exhibits
  5. Prius, I will go halvsies Or a gen7 is screaming out for a mans engine I have as caldina estate which could be a nice home for it Anything sleeper which is why I love the Prius so much That will leave you with 2 rusty gen6 and a spare 3sge engine I am still looking for a suitable car to plop that 3sge you have of mine and corolla seems best
  6. Yeah be careful on the gen7. It has a limiter and if its nit right the window will go up then halfway back down
  7. Whole window needs slide back about 10mm
  8. The rubber can be tucked inside the interior trim to plug the gap and bit, your glass looks fine.
  9. Any responsible celica owner could not reccomed you spend more money on a limited edition St with a crap avensis engine when you could buy a better equipped and cheaper to run more reliable gt for less money.......anything anyone else says to the contrary is false
  10. If I can see it I will know wats going on. It could be a couple of different things
  11. It may not be sat right, can you get a picture from the rear with the door shut and one from side on with door open
  12. who supplies the fuel can make a huge difference. My gt4's and the caldina do not like tesco fuel not even the 99. and the fuel economy suffers....surprisingly the cheapest around is ASDA 95 and give me the best mpg by far
  13. there is a huge difference between driving a gen 6 in stop start traffic and driving on the motorway in town in the gt4 I was putting petrol in like it was a GT4 motorway is was getting around 400 miles to a tank. st202 around town worked out at about 32mpg whereas on motorway runs i managed to get a 20 year old gen 6 to return 41mpg on more than one occasion
  14. Get into 5th whenever you can and try not to slow down
  15. welcome back matey I had a gen 7 for a while there and I kept sayign the engine is askign to be sprinted or hill climbed
  16. Nope mileage means nothing on a car thats been looked after
  17. Happy 6 Anniversary Briano!

  18. Check your coolant level How quickly does the car warm up, if coolant is fine move onto oil level as if that's low your car could also warm up really quick
  19. Just cover everything in damp towels and be carefull
  20. I just don't like Lift thing, you really have to be driving like a looney to get the consistent power. I think if i was buying a gen 7 for a daily I would just get a 140. the build quality is night and day, and OMG doe the gen 7 parcel shelf not half rattle like feck. comparing GT to 190 is not hard, if you had 2 side by side in similar condition and miles you would always take the gen 6, it just was better built.
