Re: Newbie - wanting to build a trackday mr2 on a budget
If you are going to remove the sound deadening (looks like tar) on the floor areas (its under the carpet) then dont make the mistake of trying to chisel it off bit by bit. Just get a rubber mallet and whack the floor with it. The sound deadening is like ice and will break up and allow you to simply ...

Re: Sunroof blanking
Im doing this myself. Sunroof is out and Ive got the blank aluminium panel cut and ready to go on, about 40mm larger than the gap. The oversize allows for me to run a wide bead of silicone underneath to stop water getting in. I went for dome head rivets with quite a small shaft and have opted to hav...

Re: Tein super street damping adjustment
Just to make sure I wasnt being misleading Ive just been down the garage and checked. It is fully clockwise until stop - then unwind anti-clockwise but no more than 16 clicks. Ive actually just done that on mine to be 100% sure. Ive got Tein superstreets with pillowball uppers. If it really helps, d...

Re: Tein super street damping adjustment
You sure thats right?? Unless Im mistaken then their PDF says to start from fully clockwise (to hardest setting) and then go anti-clockwise until you get to your desired setting. Not going past (16) the softest setting. ie: The opposite of what you just said. http://www.tein.co.uk/installation_manua...

As a long standing V6 owner (3 years) I have seen threads like this disappear up their own ar$e time and time again and Im amazed Paul (Woodsport) has taken the time to post relevant information yet again considering the amount of "oh you only posted that to boost sales.." etc crap he has ...

Re: Toyota Sprint Series
... the fact is i have found the TSS website and its members to be very welcoming and eager to help and offer advice. The Series does seem to be engineering at the individual who is after good competative fun and not a full blown serious MSA event. Pretty much bang on what my experience was like :)...

Re: [Mk2] [NA] Chassis & Handling upgrades - bit of a shopping list req.
One thing I dont see listed but would be well worth doing is a trip to a vehicle geometry specialist to get your car set up properly once all the above is completed.
http://www.wheels-inmotion.co.uk are where I go and are very good, but Im sure there are others too if these are too far away.

Re: Track Day List
Being honest, when I saw your initial post I thought.. but there are a couple of sites which do something similar. Having now clicked on your website, it is MILES ahead of the others imo and makes things so much quicker and easier to find TDs around you. I hope the TDO's get behind this as its the b...
