[are gen 7s really that bad?]

The never ending debate is deep rooted within this thread.

[Stick on Number plates]

I have used one of mooks on both my Gen 6's, mine are both 85% full size so a little smaller than standard.

Never had a problem with mine passed mot's and inspections fine, although as far as I am aware since about 2007 stick on number plates are illegal on anything other than older tax exempt cars? Its a grey area though, but I always have my standard UK size plate in the boot.

[How much to get tyres swapped over?]

I pay 10 a corner, balanced. Its an extra 3 to dispose of the casing, its free at the tip.

[to keep or not to keep]

As long as it's not an unmanageable loan for you then yeah go for it. Like people say you only live once, just keep a contingency fund aside for worst case scenario.

There will always be somebody faster true but your not aiming for the fastest car on the road are you? but with GT4 your probably up there with the top 15% anyway so you do not have nothing to prove to anybody.

[to keep or not to keep]

I loved my GT as much as you, most people said I was crazy selling it only one of my close friends was encouraging so that's the only person I listened to because deep down its what i wanted. So i will say the same for you because it seems like your stuck between a rock and a hard place.

Buy a GT4, you know you want to, thers no better feeling than getting the edge over on your mates r33gtst.

[Snow chains... Any one use them]

Chains are good if you are stuck or in heavy snow but like people say as soon as you hit a clearing you need to take them off.

I bought a couple of snow tyres for my 15"'s on my daily drive, worked out around £60 per tyre, just for the fronts to get me out the shit.

[Sell 2nd car to buy another Celica?]

There's fun to be had in the four in the snow.

[wonder how many horses we lose over the years?]

I always thought my GT held well considering its age and mileage.

[Rally day 2011 with GT4OC]

Great vids, and pics. I did an unexpected drift off an island this afternoon and had the exact same reaction as you

[BOOST]

Boost is great admittedly, but the thing i have learnt is even if you do not buy an out and out lemon, a 15 year old car with boost will definitely have some citrus y undertones.

[How many miles does your Celica cover in a week?]

I usually cover 50 miles over the weekend in the car. Sometimes alot less/more depends what needs adjusting

[need help asap :)]

I always leave the old pads and discs on and use a lever between the two to push the piston back.

[Rant..]

x2 on the running around to his wing mirror with my foot.

[Tried an oil change today...]

I rounded the sump nut on my van simply because it was impossible to access on the floor. Took it to the garage around the corner, once on the ramps it came off no problem, might be the angle your working at.

[temp insurance cover]

I am having the same trouble with my car as its still unsold, and the new car i had to swapp over onto my existing policy (also with AF) so currently it is on a temp insurance costing £90 a month to just sit there unused, while the GT4 costing an additional £200 to put on my existing insurance to run untill Sep, is sitting in a garage 75 miles away waiting to be fixed is also unused. So i would not recommend AF.

[Loose arse]

Do you have a flat/ under inflated tyre on the back?

[Clutch Done but now have a crunch! :(]

Take it back and get it adjusted. You can buy a polybush gear linkage kit for the gen 6 you may be able to get one for the 7, its not an expensive or hard job to do.

[Main causes of brake judder?]

Your discs are fked.

[Help Required, Essential Show Camping Equipment]

Decathlon sell those self assemble quenchacha "white devil" tents for a good price.

[Any one dare to try this...]

My mate was talking about doing this to his car.

[Pulled over]

IMO you should be allowed to stick whatever you want, infact you should sticker bomb the whole tailgate in v tec this stickers to make your point, .

I think i would like the sticker more if it did not have the vtec this text, then you can flip everybody off eeee.

[BG 44K]

Has anybody used this stuff in a diesel? I have a diesel which smokes like a bitch, which i put down to injector and coked up egr/ inlet manifold. If this stuff is as good as people say it shall be interesting to find out.

[My new ride]

Gen 6

[Possibly moving on?]

Funny people say the 300zx are lethal because last week i was behind one at an island and it ended up facing me

[My new ride]

Whatever it is you paid too much for it, or too little, one or the other.
