He was someone i got to know over about 6 months while i was living in coventry. seemed like a nice guy. i know he wasn't planning to screw me over. if he was, it was very elaborate involving 6 months of planning including 2 runs to wales with this club and a couple of meetings at our place. he was ...

Reg is B728... Red 85 sunroof model. i replaced both front wings with newer ones, and they were missing the black bumper strips i was in Coventry when i sold it, buyer was too... I sold it about 3 years ago when i was leaving the country, and unfortunately still haven't been paid... i've spoken to t...

i went through all the same steps as you this summer, except i stripped 2 screws. wasn't easy getting a dremel in there to grind off the screw heads.... i shoved my digital camera between the doorskins and started shooting. what i think i saw, was that the next gear from the motor is actually the sp...

could these work?

they're rated for 10 Watts, and can handle 5 or 10 times the rated power for 5 seconds. the highest draw is during startup, right? maybe they'd be ok for what you (and I) need.

don't see any close to 1.23 ohms, though.

refilled again today, 8.45 litres to 81 miles. assuming 4.68 l/gallon, that's about 45 mpg again. being the ignorant canadian, you are using UK gallons, right? this is about 37 mpg(US). might explain my high numbers. i'm absolutely sure of the litre measurement this time. i couldn't possibly fit any...

this was purely motorway driving, 70 miles a day, trying as hard as i could to keep that TVIS closed, and start moving from stoplights as if i was in our 1.5l 4 door automatic Civic saloon (read: very slowly). i think i opened the TVIS this morning once or twice, but i'll see what kind of mileage i ...

so it's not running anymore, then, is it? Mine's about to pass 184 000 miles and running great. actually i tried to gauge the mileage i could get out of petrol if i drive gently. on this last tank, i went 316 miles before refilling, and i could only fit 31.31 litres in the tank. this works out to ab...

I have an official Toyota 'Twin Cam 16' sticker that i was given with my car... i don't need it. if you're buying stickers individually from Mr T, i can save you a pound or two on this one..

First Photos!

As usual, i didn't take as many pictures as i'd like. hopefully next time...

Edit: fixed link

the day before the previous run (in may) my girlfriend and i went to tesco, and paid £40 for a tent, 2 sleeping bags, and 2 mats. not a bad deal. tent's a decent size, too...

as you can tell, i'm skeptical, but i'm also itching to solder something....

i'll track petrol use, and try it out in a few weeks, maybe...

still obsessing over this.... apparently it reduces the current that's going through the dizzy, making it last longer.

also makes the power going to the plugs more consisten/stronger....

haven't bought one yet, though...

I was looking for supplies to build myself a small bass amp, and found this little device in kit form at Maplin for £9.99 http://www.electronictoolbox.com/0000434/Electronic_Kits_Automotive_ApplicationsAlarms_Electronic_Transistor_Ignition.html any idea if it's worth trying? If you're handy with a s...

Red F reg mk1 with yellow lines down the sides, and 'TOYOTA' and 'MR2' in yellow on the bootlid. i don't think i've ever seen pics of it on here or MR2OC...

i can't decide if i liked it or not....

I missed them! i did see 3 mk2s down at arnage on sunday morning. there was also a red mk2 and a red mk1 (C-reg with late body kit/early interior) camped in beausejour. unfortunately I was cruising around in the boot of a red land rover discovery....

Just to be sure... did you check inside the wheel arches for rust? the rust on my arches is just starting to show on the outside, but that means it's come all the way through from the inside. be sure to feel around the inside of the lip...

yeah, i'm watching them... i'm just really having trouble justifying spending any money right now. i may go for them... depends how high they go.

i really can't afford that much money. i just need them to look a bit better than this:

i did use stripper, but the corrosion has still pitted the wheels pretty badly. i started sanding after the stripper but i'm having trouble getting into some of the corners and they just don't look as good as i'd like them to look before i start priming/painting/lacquering... so i thought i'd find a...

Started refurbishing, but i don't think i'll get the results i want by hand.

anyone know the cost (ballpark figures) of having wheels shotblasted? i'll do the painting myself, but i can't sand the wheels as much as i'd like...

can anyone recommend a place to do it in the midlands?
