i will save you the trouble

try streetfx in austrailia, i ordered a set from there and they are as close as you can get not a bad price either

After almost a year since that fateful day that I hurt my poor baby, my car was finally booked in for it's long overdue repairs. The car was dropped off back in March 31st to a small garage with a lonely old man working his socks off call A.J.Artus in Birmingham around the corner from Star City.   So after my lil design moment in seeing how a black boot would look as well as the whole fiasco with the retard fabricator who thought front fender vents should face fowards, I had to change some of the plans/designs and ended up going full carbon fibre bonnet and fenders. Sadly because of that, the work dragged on a lot longer than anticipated (and hiked up the price big time   ....wouldn't have been a problem if I was able to get the OEM fenders with the vents facing the right bloody way!!!). I thought the Seibon stuff were supposed to be pretty good stuff but they were a serious pig to fit and even worse, had lots of pin holes and rough edges in the laquer which needed sorting out in order to get them painted properly. Another problem that occurred was that I was going to stick on a subtle body kit too but it required a lot of fettling and probably bonding to the car, and since I wasn't sure if I would like the design, I decided against it and didn't bother with it in the end, so something else will go in it's place but no time soon I'm afraid.   I popped in as often as I could, this meant almost every other weekend and any days off I had as April and May were full of the odd days off with 2 long stag do weekends as well as being stupidly busy at work. So I needed as much rest as I could but could never truly rest with all this going on at once, never mind the worry of the car and all the problems that came up because of it    But I can finally see the light at the end of the tunnel, the car will be picked up finally tomorrow morning (fingers crossed) and then I'll be heading straight down to meet Lauren at GPRM, then Rob at some dude's garage in Chiseldon, then down to the Premier Inn in Chippenham ready for Japfest at Castle Combe on the Saturday and then over to the Supercar Seign at Leeds Castle on the Sunday.....a very very busy weekend again!!!   Pics of the colour change will be posted tomorrow night so stay tuned!!!                                          

Just because everyone is complimenting you, i'm going to say it looks shit

Grrr... all this chat, chat, rabbit, rabbit about 'bling'... what next, chromed nipples? The only 'Rocket Bunny' worth talking about is a high speed sanitiser in the ladies toilet...
 
Am I still in the same Forum or have I regressed to a past life..?
 
If you want to strut your stuff go to Spearmint Rhino..
 
Golden rule number one - if it's made to make your thing look pretty it's a waste of money.
 
Golden rule number two - if in doubt refer to rule one.

I like knight racer stuff had a kit on my civic how ever the fit seems to be an issue with all of there products

Don't see why it should be covered under warranty really.

Actually I think I'm going to order the chipex h8r Orange kit. Seems more complete than just me and a paint pot :-)

As I am - I believe - the first person to put their name down on the customer list (and confirmed) ..
 
...   I shall let you know.....
 
 
 
Spec K

Baloo finally has a new skirt!
 
It doesn't quite match the bumpers but I knew it wouldn't anyway and until I can afford to get them painted this will do! Also had to rip up part of my stripe to fit this, but I quite like it how it is, we shall see.
 
 

 

I like that airbag sticker, am I the only one? Lol

The day has finally come, I've finally dropped my car off to get it fixed and ultimately transform into something epically awesome! CAN'T WAIT! Had to drop it off early as I don't have time to drop it off any other time so work won't actually start till next week, and sadly it'll be about 3 weeks  the wait is guna kill me!
 
It has been too long but it was also kinda fun driving around in this state, the faces and looks was amusing, and the amount of people talking about my car all over the country was impressive, my boss over heard some people chatting about a battered 86 while at a scanning event, turns out they were from Bentley and it was my car they were talking about, I've even had a stalker hunt me down on Facebook after seeing my car parked up somewhere. But the car will come back looking epic, there are lots of extra bits going on so the car will be completely transformed, but I'll leave some of that as a surprise!  But for the time being, I'm currently driving around in a Hyundai i10 which has so far made me a lil car sick....and I was driving 

I love my miltek till I got beached down a lane last night and ended up ripping the back box off

Welcome aboard!
 
You may want to re-evaluate getting a Milltek. They are prone to cracking. I'm currently on my third! 

I'm interested

mine used to camp on my lap when she was just a puppy and now shes almost to big to fit on the front seat 

rule number one, avoid Litchfield

I sold these to Adam originally. Great set of wheels. Few pictures of them on my car

Since day 1 my gearbox has not been acceptable in its operation. 1st to 2nd has always been crunchy, 2nd to 3rd intermittently crunchy and general gear selection poor. It would often clunk all the way to the back axle when engaging first which is a sure sign the clutch is not fully breaking and is dragging. The car went back to Toyota twice for "adjustment" with no improvement. I fitted Redline MTL oil and had Abbey fit MTEC shift springs. A little improvement but not significant. I read on the FRS forum about altering the bite point lower and tried this. Whilst it improved driveability it actually made the problem worse and the placebo effect soon wore off.
 
I have been convinced from day 1 that the issue owners experience is clutch drag. Have experienced this so many times on bikes with cable operated clutches if the cable is not kept well lubricated and adjusted.
 
Yesterday at The Trundle I sat in Subota Boys car and felt his clutch - ooer ! Totally different to mine. After he sat in my car we both agreed that my clutch felt like it had air in it. I was all prepared to do some bleeding this weekend when today I strayed across an excellent website. Read it through a couple of times and it all made sense. Watched the video a couple of times and the guy actually has a clutch assembly on the bench to show you what to do (same as moving bite point). I set my clutch this afternoon EXACTLY how he says and double checked it. The actuator is on top of the clutch housing so you don`t need the buddy he mentions to check actuator operation.
 
I have just been out for a spin and can`t believe the difference. Bite point is probably now higher than from when I got it but gearchanges very very good. You can just feel the massive improvement. No baulking, no crunching and much much smoother. The pedal is more solid and feels exactly how it should, not like it has air in it.
 
I highly recommend anyone with the crunchy nut gearbox to try this. It is just a 10 minute job. Read the website and watch the video a couple of times. The setting is quite critical it would appear. Perhaps this car is quite sensitive to the set up and a general assembly at the factory is not sufficient ?
 
I`ll keep you posted but so far very very impressed.
 
Toyota could do with taking note of this site:
