Just came back from toyota service

[tonysupra]

My boost gauge and injector clips just came in yesturday after a month wait. A year of buying mods and I thought I was finally able to install them but it turns out I have to wait longer.

My oil change from toyota(yes i am lazy and it's HOT outside) told me I need all new tires, all new brakes, and the three belts. I knew the brakes were going bad, but I guess i have to change them sooner than I thought. And each tire has a nail in it. LOL.

The tech there told me the supra had a crack somewhere but my ADHD self didn't have the attention span long enough to realize what he said. I kept looking at how sweaty he was. lol.

Damn money guzzler!

lol im kind of interested how much it cost you to do that

 

[johnathan1]

yea me too.

 

[JustAnotherVictim]

I am not.

 

[johnathan1]

I am not.

Really? How interesting...

 

[tonysupra]

So what should I do first?

 

[Big Wang Bandit]

Do you have an Americas Tire around you?

I brought My car into Americas tire and they removed a screw for free.

They do it for free anyways, If its repairable.

just pull the nails and patch the tires as long as they arent in the sidewall and you still have pleanty of tread.

you can probobly get all three done in one shot at a good mechanic.

Tread....yeah about that. lol. They need replacing though. But I guess I can finally put on my new 5 spoke rims and replace the sawblades.

 

[fiyota]

all new brakes? like, just pads or everything? like, say rotors, calipers, pads etc...

 

[tonysupra]

They just said brakes, so i'm hoping it's just the brake pads. They gave me an estimate of the brakes with install of $215.95 for each front and rear pair. So I think it would cost a whole lot more for the whole thing.

 

[Big Wang Bandit]

I paid 207$ for some rotors and some brake pads(from kragen).

215 for just brake pads? WTF mate

I do wish I got some less dusty pads tho.. Next time Im going ceramic haha

did this make you hawt? :gaybar:

mmmmm....crack!








LOL, sorry man j/k

 

[OneJArpus]

Get your pads & rotors else where stop being lazy sweat your nuts off but save some$$$$ if not dish out that cash while you sit in AC

 

[johnathan1]

So how much is a basic oil change from the dealer?

damn...taking a twenty year old car to the dealer for an oil change...how classy is that??

 

[mkIIIman089]

This is an awesome example of why so many MK3's run and look like they do...:icon_roll

 

[tonysupra]

Johnathan: The oil change only cost me $11. I couldn't get the old filter out and it was like 96 degrees outside with 80% humidity. I supplied the oil and a user-friendly filter tho. Classy? I don't get it.

TaSe: Of course i'm gonna get my stuff elsewhere. I just got the oil change because it's cheap. I'll put the brakes on, but i'm not sure if i could tackle the belts.

mkIIIman: Why thanks, mine runs pretty damn good and looks pretty damn mint. :dunno:

 

[supra90turbo]

If you can do brakes, you can certainly replace your belts, I'd hope.
