Obviously not that lame...

Mines probably lame...

Well, he came, he saw, he drove it away. 4 days time, i pick it up good as new - yay! All hail King Ed! :biggrinki

Question - i'm at 12' timing (it was at 8' for some reason and barrelled through fuel at an astonishing rate), but it feels like the power is off lower down - is this the case, or is it really old plugs and valve clearances needing doing that causes this?

Here - there isnt much choice when it comes to bourbon. Usually, its narrowed down to 3 types - Jim Beam, Jack Daniels and Generic Crap Jim Beam Black though....hmm...might have to have some....

Lol! :D

Well Poland might be on the cards for respray if LGM dont gimme a good quote, but i think he's going to fit the right colour panels...with good pre-facelift trim too.

I had set aside a few hundred quid expecting it to be waaaay more! £177 is less than Toyota charge for a f*cking service around here!!

JESUS IS ENGLISH! GIGGIDY! </Quagmire>

WOW! Just got off the phone with Jesus - he's coming over this evening, he's taking the car away and delivering it back by the end of the week, and doing the following: New Plugs New Leads New Distributor New Rotor Arm Valve Clearances New Fuel Tank & Pump, Level Sender & Pipes Front Fenders...

Hehe - well, problem was, he refused to give insurance details, police station was closed until the following day (they only do 9 to 5 hours here now) and the numberplate was dodgy anyways - they have CCTV footage though - but not like thats going to help :(

Lol - well poland aint far away - although the cost of the ferry, and the fuel to get there would cost as much as getting it done round the corner ;)

Okay - a) check the inside of the distributor cap for signs of tracking, or in the case of my Rover, actual metal filings from worn rotor arm b) check for water in the plug gallery and for condensation on the inside of the plug leads. c) check the leads going to the coil/igniter, make sure...

Yeah - the door i think can be pushed out, dent wise, and then resprayed, the door may not need replacing after all. I got it so that the window winds down fully, and the door shuts okay - seam lines are good, just a question of that scrape at the bottom. Wings though definitely need to be done...

Yeah prices are a little on the insane side, i must admit.

£2000 is for just exterior, 2-pack & clear coat, on something the size of a Vauxhall Nova (about half the size of a Supra). Bodyshops are expensive here cause there arent many of them, so they can charge what they want. I'd brave it myself but alas, lack of workspace, compressor and...

Jesus himself called me this afternoon, and he's said that the fuel tank, door and front wings will be fixed by MID WEEK! The fuel tank is leaking from the seam so i suspect that it needs welding, or just swapping out for one that exists in Ed's Mk3 breakers yard. While he's at it, he's going...

I'm having my passenger door and two front wings fitted this week, and was just wondering, how much would it cost to have them resprayed in standard Toyota Black? Ballpark figure is okay - just a little worried that it'll cost me a LOT of money. Some paintjobs i've heard of here cost upwards of...

OMG that looks fuckin perfect! I want me some of that stuff, NOW!
